Back from Yangjiang, let me share my authentic experience! I came to this city because of a song.

✨ “The sea breeze gently blows, the sea waves gently sway, the stories of Yangjiang shine under the sun.” When these self-composed lyrics came to mind, the seaside charm and leisurely atmosphere filled me with longing for Yangjiang. In February, as the chill of winter faded and warmth filled the air, I packed my bags and headed to Yangjiang for a relaxing two-day trip. Check out my travel guide! Yangjiang, located in southwestern Guangdong Province, adjacent to the South China Sea, is a charming coastal city. It boasts stunning natural scenery, with stretches of sandy beaches, azure waters, and verdant mountains, creating a picturesque landscape. It also has a rich history and culture, with ancient fishing boats and fishing customs showcasing its unique maritime charm. Yangjiang is renowned for its cutlery, and its cuisine is diverse and delicious, from fresh seafood feasts to specialty snacks and desserts, each bite a treat for the taste buds. Transportation Guide ✈️ You can fly to Yangjiang Heshan Airport, but flights are relatively limited. Many people choose to fly to Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport or Zhuhai Jinwan Airport and then transfer to Yangjiang by bus or high-speed rail, which is very convenient. Public transportation in Yangjiang is mainly by bus, with some routes going directly to scenic spots. If you want to go to Hailing Island or other more distant scenic areas, taking a special tourist bus is a good option. You can also choose to take a taxi, ensuring worry-free travel.🚕🚌 Recommended Itinerary Day 1⃣: Hailing Island (Dajiao Bay - Ten Mile Silver Beach - Mawei Island) - Zhapo Farmers Market Day 2⃣: Yangjiang City (Yuanyang Lake Park - Yangjiang Kite Museum - Beishan Park) 7 Must-See Attractions 1.

Yangjiang is like a fresh seaside pastoral song, each attraction a moving note, making me linger and reluctant to leave.😍 Local Food Recommendations 1.
