Dragon Year Footprints (8) —— Taipin Cherry Blossom Tea Garden
There are many places where you can enjoy cherry blossoms, but appreciating them in a tea garden is quite distinctive. First of all, the colors, with the green tea garden as a backdrop, the cherry blossoms appear even more vivid and eye-catching, pleasing to the eye and soothing to the heart; secondly, the sowing characteristics of the tea garden add a sense of line to the view from a distance; at the tea house on the mountain top, one can sit by the floor-to-ceiling windows, sipping tea and enjoying the flowers, which is quite atmospheric. Taipin Cherry Blossom Tea Garden, it must be one of the most beautiful footprints of my Dragon Year!

Eloisa Hilpert
In Xiamen, there is a most charming niche citywalk route that you absolutely cannot miss
That is the Island Ring Road. Here, you can watch the sunrise at Huangcuo Beach, feel the tranquility and beauty of the early morning. By evening, the sunset scenery of Baicheng is equally shocking. The beautiful scenery of the Island Ring Road is intoxicating, like a flowing scroll.
So, how can you enjoy all the charm of this route? Here is our carefully planned best sunset citywalk route for the Island Ring Road:
1. Huangcuo Beach: Start your journey, feel the intimate contact with the beach and the sea, and enjoy a unique tranquility.
2. Xitou Xia: Leave the beach, step into the seaside plank road, feel the unique chill atmosphere, and appreciate the clear sea water.
3. Music Square: Sit on the bench, let the sea breeze blow, listen to the melody of the sea, and enjoy a sense of comfort and comfort.
4. Tianquan Pedestrian Square: Continue to move forward, feel the greenery on both sides of the trail, and let your body and mind relax.
5. Pangui Tower: The final destination, where you can enjoy the beautiful sunset scenery. Looking at the Twin Towers, it seems that time has stopped.
We suggest you start from Huangcuo Beach around 3 pm, walk slowly, and appreciate slowly, about 2 hours later you will reach Pangui Tower. It is sunset time, you can wait quietly for the sun to slowly sink below the sea level, and feel that wonderful moment. There are many cafes in the Huangcuo Wanyuepo area that offer beach afternoon tea service, where you can enjoy a wonderful time.
The Island Ring Road in Xiamen gives you a different citywalk experience, you absolutely cannot miss it!

Best Rooftop Terrace in Xiamen (Wanna Roof)
The experience I had at this location is like traveling to Hawaii for a vacation with Latin flavor. The design of the restaurant, the terrace, the color of the wall (Orange wall), the musical selections and the live Band makes this location the best place for tourist that wants to experience life in Xiamen.
The environment is great. Although there were a lot of people, I had to wait in line, In the end,I felt it was worth it.
The scenery at night was great. I will recommend going in the evening, take some lovely pictures with the orange walls (I would suggest colorful clothes) and then have a romantic dinner with Sea View. #rooftop #sea View #terrace #staycation #summervacation #awesomepic #beachlife #tripblazers #bucketlistreboot #mytripvlog #beachlife #foodie #passionpassport #nationalpark #

The most beautiful island ring road - Jing Sha - Sand Bottom - Tan Shui Village - Changjiang Ao (sunset)
⬇Day 2
Xianren Well (sunrise) - Longwangtou - Houyan Island - County Town Night Market
⬇Day 3
Yuehai Bay - Tannan Bay
📷 Must-visit Attractions
🌟 Watch the sunrise at Longwangtou!
(Longwangtou is the best spot on the island for sunrise viewing. Besides watching the sunrise on the beach, sitting on the rocks near the wall on the right side of the beach is also full of atmosphere!)
🌟 Watch the sunset at Changjiang Ao
(If Longwangtou is the best sunrise viewing spot, then Changjiang Ao is undoubtedly the best sunset viewing spot! There is a large field of windmills here, which can be said to be Pingtan's big internet celebrity spot, definitely a breathtaking view that will be etched in your heart after one look! Truly super beautiful and spectacular!)
🌟 Beibu Gulf Ecological Corridor
(The third best - the best viewing spot for the island's windmill sea. The endless sea and the windmills merge into one, with not a single redundant spot. Moreover, the Windmill Forest Road and the most beautiful S-curve road are nearby, so you can check them off your list at the same time)
🌟 Tannan Bay Beach
(This place has the most beautiful beach 🏖 on the southern line of Pingtan, and the tropical scenery of the island is synonymous with this place! The sand is fine, soft, and clean, the water is very blue, and there are many coffee snacks, so you can have a leisurely sunbath by the sea and listen to the sound of the waves brushing the beach!)
🚌 Transportation
Generally, renting a car is the way to go.
🛵 or 🚗
Electric vehicles are recommended here, as they are less likely to get stuck in traffic and parking is more convenient.
🍢 Food Recommendations
· Yiwang Lanwang Seafood Porridge: Opens at eleven o'clock, come at mealtime and you won't be afraid of queuing, but if you're late you might have to queue. Their raw pickles, I think, are even better than the porridge~ The porridge is also good, very fresh and sweet, and goes great with the raw pickles
· Tan-style Pan-fried Buns: Opens early, perfect after watching the sunrise at Longwangtou, the buns are filled with a 'lethal dose' of green onions, so if you don't like green onions, you can skip it.
· A Buran Taiwanese Stir-fry: As soon as you enter, you can feel the strong patriotic sentiment, the first time eating at such a Taiwanese stir-fry restaurant, surprisingly delicious!
· Minzhi Lan Fujian Cuisine: The Xiamen satay pot is super delicious, the pot is full of seafood, suitable for soup with rice, the oyster pancake is super big, just that it's a bit expensive with an average cost around 150, suitable for friends who want to eat something good!
· Lanyue Ben Gang Seafood: A treasure shop I discovered! Personally, I think it's no worse than Hongxing, and the environment and service are even better than Hongxing, with a very large seafood pool, seafood is ordered and fished on the spot, so it's visibly fresh, and I've tried many cooking methods I've never had before, highly recommended!

Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Apr)
You should visit Guizhou at least once, and experience the day and night of the Qianhu Miao Village!!
It turns out that the off-season is the correct way to visit the Qianhu Miao Village of Xijiang❗️||🏠Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village
🚗About transportation:
Take the high-speed rail to Kaili South Station!
❗️There is a bus ticket office on the left side of the high-speed rail station: 18/person (but there is a timetable, it seems to be one and a half hours)
❗️If the departure time is close to the departure time, then I strongly recommend taking the bus! There is really no need to take a black car, the bus can directly send to the west gate or north gate, both gates will stop
-
🚪About which door to enter:
Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village has two gates, west gate and north gate
I sincerely recommend going in and out of the north gate
Because the west gate must go through a commercial street that lasts for seven or eight minutes,
The commercial street is really really very⬇️ Head
If you are dragging a suitcase, it is even more difficult
-
🚌About sightseeing car:
After entering the scenic area, you have to take a sightseeing car to enter the village
I can only say that the money that should be spent still has to be spent
-
🏘️About accommodation:
Accommodation is not recommended! The best view is with a balcony
If there are not too many requirements, it is enough to suggest halfway up the mountain
Living too high is really really hard to climb
-
🍽️About eating:
For friends who come to Guizhou for the first time, I recommend sour soup beef or local stir-fry
-
📝Note tips:
There are really few people going in the off-season
Accommodation and eating are relatively convenient
It is best to find a sunny day to go
The experience on a rainy day should not be too good
The village is quite commercial, but I personally think it is very beautiful and worth it! The stilted buildings are very beautiful and the photos are very good. It is a good choice to go on a sunny day for a weekend. It is not as unbearable as the Internet says
There will be some performances at a fixed time
Try to bring as little luggage as possible. It is really hard to walk with a suitcase on the road in the village. If there is really a lot of luggage, try to choose a homestay that can help with luggage
Remember to wear a pair of comfortable shoes

The Wooden House Village.
The Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village is a special ancient village in Guizhou Province of China. It is home to the Miao people, a minority group in China.
Getting there: Get to Kaili city (in Guizhou province) by train. Then get a taxi to the village. A private car is also an option and you just need to search online for a company - there are many English speaking ones that can take you.
The village itself is filled with stunning traditional wooden architecture and stunning scenic views of the ancient village. (see my photos for some examples). It is truly a unique part of China.
I recommend staying for several nights to really enjoy and take in the culture.
Tip: Go for sunset shots to enjoy a panoramic view of Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village. There are viewing decks on the opposite hill of Xijiang Miao Village and electric car can take you there. Standing on the viewing deck, you’ll enjoy picturesque and peaceful panoramic view of the whole village.
