First trip to Lianyungang (Travel Tips)

The first time I went to Lianyungang was in March. It was still cold. I only saw the sunrise at Yangwotou and then left. This time I went to Lianyungang in July. It was rainy weather. It had just rained, so it wasn't particularly hot, and the sun wasn't strong. We stayed in a sea-view room at a homestay near Lian Island. There are many homestays in that area, which is quite convenient, and the price for one night is not expensive. I think Lian Island is very fun. The ticket is 45💰 per person, and you must remember to book in advance. The ticket for the Lian Island Scenic Area is 20💰 per person, and you can ride unlimitedly throughout the scenic area. The first stop is Dashawan. There are many people, but I think Sumawan is more fun. You can catch small crabs🦀 and pick up beautiful small shells. I think it's okay whether you visit the Peacock Garden or not. The main thing is to play with water and sand. If you want to eat fresh seafood and take it for processing, I recommend buying it at Sanmei Seafood. The boss and the lady boss are very nice, the prices are very affordable, and they will clearly tell you the approximate price of each item. The few bags I bought cost 200 yuan. Fresh! The location is in Xugou, and you can find it with navigation. You can also buy it and have it packed and mailed home. As for local snacks, I think the spicy Fengqin Dazui Ba Suan La Fen at the Xugou Food Festival is worth a try. It's very delicious, 15💰 per serving, with lots of ingredients and full of chicken. There are also local cold noodles, which are particularly suitable for my taste—sour, sweet, and spicy! Really delicious! And the large gluten skewers for 4💰 each. I like Lianyungang! Maybe I will come again in the future!
