Gouqi Island - Heaven for Seafood Lover!
A lovely weekend getaway and definitely a heaven for seafood lovers! All kind of clams, fishes, prawns and shrimps served all-day every-day.
Beaches are all walking-distance away, no matter where you stayed. And if you happen to see the painted stairs (3rd from last pic), come up and meet 巧克力 Chocolate, the spoiled Golden Retriever, mascot of the cafe! Beside it there’s a lively bar, too.
The main attraction: the Houtouwan Abandoned Village was eerily beautiful as well. Nature has definitely claimed back its rightful place. No human invention can ever match nature’s power.
Take your time exploring the paths between all those empty concrete structures (watch your steps!), listen to the sound of nature, and breathe in the cool clean air.
It may look more beautifully green in summer, so plan your trip around those months :)
Oh, and btw, don’t be surprised to see the massive graveyards on the opposite hill. Seems like the people from the village either moved to seashore or die there and buried in the neighborhood they lived in. Probably that’s why they also call the abandoned village a ghost town 👻
Important: remember to bring your passport! You’ll need it to board the ferry and check-in to the hotel.
Getting There - drive to Yangshan Shenshuigang Passenger Transport Terminal and take ferry from there. Make sure you find the right fast-ferry schedule (2.5hrs), else it’ll take 4-5hrs, then plenty of taxi awaited at the ferry dock to take you to your hotels. Or just join one of the many group tour arrange by multiple tour agencies.
Attractions - Beaches, Houtouwan Abandoned Village.
Hotels - No international hotels in this area, but all the local ones are also good and clean.
Food & Restaurants - plenty of good seafood restaurants, follow the crowds!
Shopping - local food stores / minimarkets.
Vegan-friendliness- by request, the place I stayed at kindly cook more potatoes/mushrooms/vegetables for me!

The island has a number of small townsites around it, and little in the way of resorts or other major tourist developments. It is primarily a fishing island. Sunrise and sunsets can be interesting to see in this time of the year (Autumn). summer time there are chance of rain and typhoons. #gouqi #island #abandonedvillage
