The most beautiful corner of the ancient town rain alley

【Ticket Information】 Liuao Jade Bay ticket: 99 RMB/person, Daimi Ancient Village: free — this combo is a “huge bargain”! Half is the same blue tear beach as in Frozen, half is the Minnan version of Venice with water ancient houses. Budget travelers are left speechless. 【Accommodation Assassin】 Jade Bay Seaview Hotel off-season: 400+ RMB, rooms are “completely unremarkable”! Open the door to a hundred-meter white sandy beach, floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the entire gradient glassy sea, making you want to lie down immediately and completely disrupting travel plans. 【Food Pitfalls】 1️⃣ Liuao sweet potatoes (10 RMB/jin): so sweet you’d suspect saccharin, roasted to a honey-like amber, one bite overturns your perception of sweet potatoes. 2️⃣ Daimi Guobianhu (15 RMB/bowl): broth so fresh it’s alarming, oysters tender and melt in your mouth, breakfast feels like a guilty feast of Manchu-Han Imperial cuisine. 【Reverse Strike】 🌀 Jade Bay Sand Sculpture Park: sunburns you during the day! But at sunset it completely turns around — sand sculptures are gilded, the beach becomes a pink canvas, even straight men start studying filter settings. 🌀 Water Ancient Village Boat Tour (30 RMB/person): the river is so narrow it makes you question life! But seeing hundreds of red brick ancient houses reflected in the clear water together, even your phone’s wide-angle lens isn’t enough. 【Aftereffect Warning】 The beach here is as soft as stepping on milk powder, the ancient village is so quiet you can hear the breathing of century-old banyan trees, even a tractor driving on the water stone road feels like a scene from an art film. Coming here easily desensitizes you to “internet-famous spots” — after all, the real jackpot is hidden in the everyday life of Minnan. Don’t blame me if your eyes get spoiled.
