In the hot June, I set foot on such a small island, some strange and familiar. The sun shone and kissed every inch of my skin, and the skirt fluttered in the cool sea breeze. Flowers and birds, it touched the softest area of my heart, making my distant blue and white dreams at your fingertips.
I have always been obsessed with blue and white. I wanted to go to Santorini several times and I didn't get it in the end. In recent years, the island winds have prevailed, and domestic tourists are keen on Southeast Asian islands, but they ignore the beautiful islands around us.
A TV series "Ode to Joy 2" let me know that there is such a beautiful and romantic island in Zhoushan. From a distance, the countless high and low blue and white houses on the island will produce species. The illusion is like walking into the blue and white world of Santorini.
A few days of slow life on the island, walking through the streets in the afternoon, walking to the beach in the evening, passing the cool sea breeze, not only the seductive scenery that penetrates the soul, but also You want a cool summer.

Weekend Trip to Gouqi Island
Around 5 and half hours away from Shanghai (2 hours bus from Nanpu Bridge, 3 and half hours ferry), Gouqi Island is a laidback weekend getaway from the city. It is part of Shengsi Islands, in Zhoushan City, Zhejiang Province. You can enjoy watching sunrise and sunset, stargazing, cycling, or simply enjoying a good meal. Mussles are quite good here. You can also visit and walk around an abandoned village. #2023travelwish

Shengshan Island Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Apr)
HouTouWan Heaven
We traveled to a small island in the East China sea, ShengShan, and discovered this abandoned fishing village. The location is quite a little ways up the mountain so I'd suggest going early if you're walking or taking a Taxi if you're willing to pay the steep fee. The views were absolutely breathtaking and every bit of sweat it took walking up there. After strolling the abandoned fishing village and taking way too many photos we walked back down the mountain and enjoyed some ice cream and beer in town. If ever you find yourself there, this is a must!

China's most east? There may be N places that will compete with the small fishing village of Zhoushan in Zhoushan, but the sunrise here is so shocking on the five senses, whether it is in Lushan Island or Ghost Village, warming the mind and choosing a cliff. Hotel, lingering in the infinity pool, feel the time flowing like a song
Jordy Chow
The return of the East Cliff to the sunrise, you can finally see the scenery of Mount Lu.
The roads are full of shrimps, and the air is filled with the smell of dried shrimps. This is probably the unique taste and mark of the fishing town. The white float in the sea shimmers in the sun, and the scenery of the blue sea pasture.
Blue Sea Ranch, a quiet scene. Qixiang is a key township in the fishing industry. The mussel breeding industry is particularly developed and named by the Provincial Marine Fisheries Bureau as the Hometown of Mussels in Zhejiang Province. The Mussel Culture Festival is held from September to October every year. During the festival, a grand cultural and entertainment show will be held. The atmosphere of joy will last for a whole month.
This piece of sea, with a large white float group, and a large number of boats, is a good place to film. The white float floats on the surface of the sea, the sun is shining, and the waves are shining. At this moment, I understand why so many photographers have been passionate for n times, and it is indeed a beautiful island.
The car drove through a small harbor and there was a row of houses built on the hillside. This is a small harbor called "The Potala Palace at Sea". The golden glow of the morning, see Its beautiful, if you have the chance to go out by boat, you will be more beautiful.

Shengsi Islands Scenic Area Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Apr)
If you don’t like Sanya. 🌊
ESCAPE Shanghai for a weekend? This is a perfect island getaway if you are done with Sanya or just want something more tranquil. 🏝️
FOR 150 RMB, you can buy a ticket that includes a coach ride from Nanpu Bridge + 3hr ferry ride to the islands on the south east of Shanghai. Check the official WeChat account - 嵊泗客运 through which you can buy tickets for many different islands.
SHENGSI is one of these islands. It is linked to Shengshan island by a bridge - the one with the abandoned fishing village.
DO NOT expect a vibrant nightlife or any type of water activity apart from fishing. These islands are a destination for many fishing amateurs - specially in winter.
HOWEVER, you will get slow paced days, walkable distances all around the island, evening discussions by the sound of waves, amazing views and very friendly locals. 😊
ACCOMMODATION range from cheap guest houses to more high end ones with bath tubs and a view. There are no big hotel chains - which I personally liked. Everything seems to be owned by individuals.
IF YOU HAVE TIME, you can island hop and catch the ferry to the many other nearby islands. This was originally my plan but I just felt so confortable in Shengsi that I ended up staying for 4 days instead of 2.

Explore stunning beauty of Shengsi Islands
Shengsi Island is a breathtaking destination that truly offers a unique experience for travelers seeking a peaceful and serene escape from the hustle and bustle of the city. Located off the coast of China, this island is a paradise for nature lovers and adventure seekers alike.
The island is surrounded by crystal clear waters, and its coastline is dotted with pristine beaches and rugged cliffs that make for stunning scenery. Visitors can hike up to the island's highest peak, explore hidden caves and grottos, or simply relax on the beach and soak up the sun.
In addition to its natural beauty, Shengsi Island is also rich in culture and history. The island's fishing village is a charming place to explore, with traditional houses and bustling markets that offer a glimpse into daily life on the island.

Beaches in China? (No it’s NOT Sanya!)
#MyTripVlog #china #beachlife
Growing up in a seaside town in England, I am always on the hunt for gentle beaches wherever I go. The commercialised draw of Sanya has never appealed to my partner and I… which is where Shengsi Islands come in!
Getting There - Just an hours bus ride from Nanpu Bridge (Shanghai) and a further trip on a ferry will take you to Shengsi Islands.
Attractions - There are several islands (you’ve probably heard of Gouqi abandoned fishing islands) but we visited the main island which boats a unesco world heritage scenic spots, not to mention beautiful beaches.
Hotels - So many to choose. If you are a foreigner like me, most hotels will help you with the registration process.
Food & Restaurants - If you like seafood this is the place for you!

The off-season Shengsi Archipelago is simply a paradise on earth
Last weekend, seizing the clear weather, I embarked on the long-awaited trip to the Shengsi Archipelago🚤☀️~ To be honest, the mood for traveling really does correlate with the weather!
When it comes to traveling in early spring, many people shake their heads, but actually, there's a little secret — that is to pick a good weather day!😉 Because dear, without the warm sun of summer, the color of the sea looks like its saturation has been turned down, plus the howling sea breeze and the bone-chilling cold, if it's not a sunny day for the trip, the experience will definitely be discounted. We actually roamed two islands this time, the first day was quite average due to the cloudy sky over the main island of Shengsi; so a little tip: for an off-season trip to Shengsi, you must choose a sunny day!🌤️
For those who yearn for the azure sea, there are not many choices in the off-season, but Dongfushan Island and Gouqi Island — will definitely satisfy you! Although the first day on the main island did not witness the dreamlike clear water, the blue dream finally came true on the second day at Gouqi Island.
I'm here to recommend some spots!😜 Personal must-visit places include: the Sea Pasture, Beichao Yang, Left Bank Road, and Dongya Cliff. Trust me, they will absolutely make you cry with their beauty.
Specifically, arrive at the main island of Shengsi at noon on the first day, rent an electric scooter in the afternoon, and rest early in the evening. The next morning, chase the sunrise at Beichao Yang, stroll leisurely along the Left Bank Road, and of course, taking photos is a must (you know, not just of the sea but also of people😂). Then head to Gouqi Island, where the east cliff is the best spot for sunbathing and sea viewing. On the way back, don't forget to pass by the Sea Pasture, it's all beautiful scenery along the way.
A warm reminder: the early mornings of early spring are not jokingly cold! We are brave little electric scooter knights, but neither a windbreaker nor a down jacket can withstand the severe cold of the morning. So, my friends, I suggest you take a taxi instead!🚗
Let me tell you secretly, the deck view on the return trip from Gouqi to Shanghai is simply intoxicating. The combination of blues and sunset is simply yyds (forever godlike)!
To sum up, if you are like me, a buddy from Jiangsu, Zhejiang, or Shanghai, you can't miss the off-season Shengsi! It's not expensive (about six or seven hundred per person), you can avoid the crowds and enjoy good weather, it's simply a cost-effective choice with off-the-charts value~ I haven't really seen the sea properly since graduating from elementary school, and this time I finally went wild with the sea again🌊💙~

Donghai Fishing Village Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Apr)
If you come to Shengsi, don't miss this place - Donghai Fishing Village!
Donghai Fishing Village in Shengsi is not a particularly popular island, but the tranquility and leisure here can really heal people's hearts. The walls of the village are painted with colorful graffiti, as if walking into a fairy tale world. You don't need to deliberately look for check-in spots, just walk around and take a few casual shots, and then taste the village food, you can harvest a good mood!
🚉Transportation strategy:
Navigate to Donghai Fishing Village in Wulong Township. Public transportation here is not very convenient. If you can't drive by yourself, you can take a boat from Shenjiawan Wharf to Lizhushan Passenger Terminal (Shengsi Main Island), and then take a taxi to go.
🏨Accommodation on the island:
There are many homestays on the island. I personally like the sea-view homestays where you can see the sea when you open the window. I chose the Wudao Sea View Inn on the beach. The boss is very enthusiastic and drove us to the pier for free when we left~
🍽Food recommendation:
There are many seafood stalls on the beach. The prices are not much different, but the ingredients are very fresh and you will basically not step on thunder~
🌟Highlights:
Donghai Wuyu Village, as the name suggests, is connected by five villages, respectively from Tianqiu Village, Huangsha Village, Bianjiao Village, Huicheng Village in Wulong Township, and Zhijiao Village in Huanglong Township. The homestay we stayed in is in Tianqiu Village, and the entrance is Tianqiu Beach and a food street, which is very convenient!
This time I want to go with the flow, and I didn't deliberately make a lot of strategies. The creative village graffiti on the island, the beautiful seaside road, the wild flowers everywhere, the starry lights of the fishermen's homes at night and the sunrise by the sea in the early morning, just by walking and discovering with your own eyes, it's enough!

Want to experience the life of a fisherman? Come to the Happy Fishing Village in Zhejiang in 2024
"From tomorrow on, be a happy person. Feed horses, chop wood, travel around the world. From tomorrow on, care about food and vegetables. I have a house facing the sea, with spring flowers blooming..."
Every time I read Haizi's poem "Facing the Sea, Spring Flowers Blooming", I am moved by its simple and clear yet profound and fresh language. This expresses the protagonist's desire to be "a happy person". Between the lines, it is full of vitality and vitality, which makes people can't help but yearn for it!
So, the question is! After a busy year, where should I go to experience a relaxing atmosphere? To be a fisherman, to experience the life of a fisherman? It is recommended to come to the "Happy Fishing Village" in Zhejiang in 2024! You can "be a fisherman for a day and live a fisherman's life for a day"!
What I want to talk about is the East Sea Fishing Village scenic spot, as a "happy fishing village", when you walk into the village, you can smell the happy atmosphere!
As everyone expected, the East Sea Fishing Village is a coastal village. Here are the highlights such as the Great Compassion Mountain Lingyin Temple, Jianzhen's Eastward Crossing Site, Tianao Beach, Coastal Wooden Plank Road, Shengsi Ocean Culture Museum, etc. You can face the sea, pick up shells on the island reef, fish in the blue sea, and fish on the beach, allowing people to fully touch the blue sea.
After arriving at the fishing village, you can see the brightly colored houses for the first time. There are childish graffiti on them, contrasting with the sea breeze and the sea. A random shot is very out of the picture! From dawn to sunset, the changes of light and shadow are reflected on the colorful walls, either bright or warm, complementing the distant green mountains and blue sea.
After a moment of rest, you can contact the sea. Take off your shoes, you can immediately go to the beach, step on the sand, chase the waves, pick up shells, it is simply relaxing and comfortable.
Interestingly, this fishing village also has a "fisherman's joy" project. Simply put, that is, tourists can have a taste of being a fisherman and embark on a "fisherman's journey of watching the sunrise, driving a boat to catch fish and shrimp, picking up shells on the reef, and exploring myths"! This not only attracts countless urban tourists to fight the wind and waves, enjoy the sea, taste life, but also experience the perfect artistic conception in the poem "Facing the Sea, Spring Flowers Blooming"!
After experiencing the "fisherman" life, you can also worship Buddha!
Prepare to come to the Great Compassion Mountain Lingyin Temple to worship Buddha. Standing at the entrance of Lingyin Temple, you can overlook the entire East Sea Fishing Village. The ships in the distant sea look very small here, spectacular. You can also see the popular S Bay Highway, a random shot is a proper island blockbuster.
After taking the picture, you can enter the Lingyin Temple. The temple is built on the mountain, with three rooms each in the north and south, covering a total area of more than 400 square meters, with buildings such as the Heavenly King Hall, Reading Room, Three Saints Hall, Yuantong Treasure Hall, Dizang Hall, and Daxiong Treasure Hall. Worshiping Buddha in it, you can experience the long history of the temple and the prosperous incense.
After worshiping Buddha, standing on the top of the mountain and looking far away, the view is excellent, and the two large beaches of Jihu and Nanchangtu are in sight, which is a place to "overlook all the small islands"!
In communication with fellow tourists, everyone feels that the East Sea Fishing Village is really a treasure land. Going out is the beach, with an excellent location and superb view! Moreover, the most important thing is that these are real "sea view rooms", which are very enjoyable!
After eating and drinking, playing on the beach for a while, you can go out to sea to fish by boat, 100 for adults, about an hour back and forth by boat. If it is a small boat, you need to take motion sickness medicine in advance. The fishing process is very fun. After returning, you can let the homestay owner process it, the taste is very good!
Of course, for those who don't like to go out to sea, you can also worship Buddha or ride a bike. The Buddha worship is the Great Compassion Mountain Lingyin Temple, and the ride is an electric car. You can set off at 5:30 in the evening, ride and watch the sunset.
I believe that after two days, you can relax and get a better mentality and experience!
Tips for visiting the East Sea Fishing Village:
The ticket is 0 yuan, located in the East Sea Fishing Village, Wulong Township, Shengsi County, Zhoushan City, Zhejiang Province. After taking the boat to Shengsi County, you can take the Shengsi 211 route; Shengsi 301A tourist special line; Shengsi coastal line to station.
It should be noted that Shengsi County is on the sea. If you want to drive to the island by yourself, you need to book a passenger ferry (also known as a passenger roll-on ship). The method is to buy a ticket one hour in advance on "Shengsi Passenger Transport", the ratio of people to cars on the ship is about 3:1, it is recommended to buy tickets in advance and queue up in advance.

Island trip to Shengsi for two days and one night
After going to Shengsi, I found that there are actually not many attractions for island tours, nothing more than eating seafood and watching the sea. Moreover, the sea water in Shengsi is not blue and contains more silt.
National Day two days and one night group tour itinerary👇
day1⃣️: Liu Jingtan Scenic Area, the scenery is still good, it is more photogenic
day2⃣️: Check in Left Bank Road——known as the most beautiful road in Zhejiang, you can see the sunset
·Transportation🚢: Drive the car to Shenjiawan Wharf in Shanghai and take a boat to the island
The boat is the only transportation to Shengsi
The slow boat takes an hour and a half, the fast boat takes forty minutes, but it is more bumpy and easy to get seasick
·Catering🍽️: Mainly seafood
You must ask for the price when ordering dishes, the prices on the island are not cheap
The breakfast is eaten in the homestay, it is porridge, doughnuts, eggs, steamed buns and the like, don't think about comparing it with the buffet breakfast in a star hotel
·Accommodation🏠: Homestay in Donghai Fishing Village
There are a lot of homestays, and the one we live in is considered to have a better environment
When traveling to the island, you must pay attention to the weather. Firstly, to avoid the impact of typhoons and other factors and be stranded, and secondly, the scenery is better when the weather is clear, and the photos are more photogenic. Unfortunately, we were affected by the peripheral typhoon this time. All the boat schedules on the day we came back were suspended, and we had to stay for another night😂
ZenfulWellness
One of the earliest emerging areas of the Fishing Jiale special tourism project in the East China Sea Fishing Village is also the only provincial-level leisure fishery teacher base in the county. Adjacent to the Keihu beach. In fact, it is Tianyu Village in Wulong Township. There are 280 households in the village with 240 households.
The village has four Buddhist temples and one of the three Guanyin Taoist temples, the Daebei Mountain Lingyin Temple, the Jianzhen Dongdu site where nature and culture blend, the Linghai Xihai scenic spot that reflects the rich marine style, and the fishery island culture. Large fishermen paint open-air murals. Guests who come here can enjoy close contact with the blue sea, live in the hotel, and participate in the fishing house tourism project When a fisherman a day, live a day fishing life. The biggest feature of the
Donghai fishing village is the local fishermen's paintings. These fishermen's paintings are cute, colorful, rich in folklore and aesthetically appealing, and are the best place for many tourists to take pictures.
