Seagull Chasing Guide｜Anaya 2-Day Orange Sea Adventure

🚩Trip Highlights at a Glance 📚 Lonely Library: The world's loneliest reading sanctuary, with the sound of waves as natural white noise; ⛪️ Anaya Chapel: Pure white geometric architecture perfectly framed with the Orange Sea sunrise; 🎨 Dune Art Museum: Cave-like art space hiding the light and shadow codes of the North China Sea; 🏨 Suka Sunrise Wake-up: A heavenly experience lying down watching seagulls fly past the floor-to-ceiling windows.   🌊Day 1: Artistic Awakening and Coastal Trekking 📍Beijing → Changli → Anaya Art Center → Chapel → Library → Overnight at Suka 🚞 7:00 The Poetry of the Green Train Nibbling on old Beijing sugar oil cake, I hopped on K7719, meeting an art academy student carrying a drawing board in the hard seat carriage. He taught me how to adjust phone filters to capture the flowing wheat fields outside the window: "Use the Xingtu 'Lime' filter, instantly turning it into 'Kikujiro’s Summer'!" 🎭 13:00 Dark Aesthetics at the Art Center In the concrete maze-like exhibition hall, I was shocked by Xu Zhen’s "Language of Metal"—300 daggers arranged in the shape of waves. The security uncle whispered, "The midnight clashing of metal sounds like a sea monster singing!" From the rooftop terrace, shooting with a 0.6x wide-angle lens, the building’s shadows cut the sunlight like a giant chessboard. 🌅 17:30 Chapel Light-Chasing Ceremony Holding the champagne from Suka, I rushed into the Orange Sea, the level 6 sea breeze blowing my skirt into a sail. I learned from a Korean couple to sprinkle mineral water droplets on the chapel steps; at the moment of backlighting, a seagull flew into the frame. My friend exclaimed, "This is a divine photo photoshopped by God!" 📖 19:00 Library Sneak Reading Sneaked in just before closing and found Yukio Mishima’s "The Sound of Waves" in the dark. Suddenly the librarian turned on the light: "Miss, this book should be read with the sound of the tide!" When the waves hit the window on page 137, it perfectly synchronized with the book’s tide passage, giving me goosebumps!   🌞Day 2: Sunrise Magic and Community Exploration 📍Seaside Sunrise → Tagi → Dog Kennel → UCCA → Return 🕊️ 5:30 Seagull Alarm Service Wrapped in the hotel bathrobe, lounging by the bay window, the Suka butler knocked on time: "Today’s sunrise probability is 97%!" Rushing to the beach, hundreds of seagulls were fighting over the photographer’s bagel crumbs. Using slow shutter to capture flying trails, then applying the "Phantom" effect in post, my social feed exploded with 50+ questions about the settings. 🌈 10:00 Tagi Dopamine Carnival In front of the giant sunflower installation, I met a Y2K-style couple helping each other take "floating photos." The secret is to toss rainbow candies while jumping, capturing the candy particles suspended in the air with Huawei’s "Dynamic Capture" mode. The clerk secretly gave me a limited badge: "You’re the 99th guest today!" 🐾 14:00 Dog Kennel Architectural Wonder In the concrete block castle, Shiba Inu "Butter" led me to a hidden route—from the third-floor slide straight to the café! Bought a "paw print cake" for 38 yuan; the glass curtain wall reflected dog-walking influencers and architects having a heated discussion: "Even Tadao Ando would have to light a cigarette here!" 🎬 16:00 UCCA Underground Theater Accidentally entered the performance art "Monologue of the Sea," where the audience was asked to listen to tidal recordings blindfolded. Suddenly someone took my hand in the dark; when I took off the blindfold, it was the Shiba Inu’s owner from earlier: "Sorry, I thought you were my lost partner..."   🏨 Accommodation Highlights and Warnings ✅ Suka Hotel Heavenly Experience 270° sea view room with Danish B&O sound system, playing "The Legend of 1900" soundtrack to set the mood Free mini bar includes Anaya exclusive "Sea Salt Soda" Shuttle driver moonlights as a photographer, revealing the mystical timing for chapel lighting ❌ Avoid These A certain influencer homestay is actually a villager’s self-built house, with a water heater that’s hot and cold intermittently Be cautious choosing street-facing rooms; late-night motorbike gangs roaring through the street rival "Fast & Furious"   📸 Hardcore Photography Tips 1️⃣ Chapel Backlight Silhouette Time: 15 minutes after sunrise during golden soft light Pose: Arms spread wide to let the skirt flutter Prop: Suka champagne glass reflecting light spots 2️⃣ Library Portrait Position: Third pane of the east side floor-to-ceiling window on the second floor Outfit: Linen tones perfectly match the concrete Easter Egg: Writers are in residence on Thursday mornings; you can snag signed books as props 3️⃣ Tagi Levitation Trick Angle: Overhead shot from the second floor + wide angle Effect: Xingtu "Dopamine" filter + 80% halo Timing: 3 PM when sunlight passes through colored glass   🚗 Survival Guide 1️⃣ Travel Hacks Snag seat 1 in carriage 1 on train T5688 for sunset side window shots with cinematic rail tracks Park at "Anaya South Parking Lot" Zone B for self-driving; there’s a hidden viewing platform next to the charging station 2️⃣ Food Easter Eggs Fourth Canteen’s "Seafood Braised Pork Rice" with chili sauce beats influencer spots instantly Birdsawa Yakitori must-order lantern dish with explosive sauce flavor 3️⃣ Pitfall Prevention Say no to 150 yuan per photo shoot; there’s a self-service tripod on the west side of the chapel Art Center tickets can be redeemed for a 30 yuan coffee voucher—don’t throw them away foolishly   The most magical moment of this trip was meeting the white-haired librarian in the library. He pointed to the borrowing record on the title page of "The Sound of Waves" and said, "On the opening day in 2015, Chen Shu also borrowed this book." Perhaps the meaning of travel is to share the same heartbeat with countless strangers in a lonely building.
