I regret coming to this fishing village known as the "Potala Palace on the Sea".

Yuhuan is a coastal city not far from Wenzhou. It has rich seafood resources, including dozens of economic fish such as yellow croaker, hairtail, pomfret, as well as shrimps, swimming crabs and a large number of shellfish. The place recommended today is "Dongsha Fishing Village", a must-visit spot for everyone traveling to Yuhuan. This place with the name of Potala Palace in the sea world is different from other villages. It is surrounded by the sea and is not as commercialized as other ancient villages in the city. It still retains the original architectural style and the sea fishing promotion of their period. You can come here for a visit during the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday. It's really nice, and there is almost no traffic jam whether it is a holiday or a weekday. And the transportation is direct and free and open to the public. 💓Check-in guide: Dongsha Fishing Village is located at the southernmost tip of Yuhuan City, Zhejiang Province. The stone houses are the main buildings, which are stacked on the hillside in an orderly manner. With its profound historical and cultural heritage and well-preserved ancient fishing village style, it is across the sea from Jishan, Dalu, Pishen, Yangyu, Dongtou and other islands. This area can be traced back to the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty when the southeastern coast of Zhejiang was lifted and fishermen from Chongwu and Wenzhou in Fujian moved here one after another. The local dialect, Fujian Minnan dialect, has been passed down from generation to generation here. The individual buildings in Dongsha Village are mostly made of stone walls and green tiles. The architectural style not only covers the style of the southern Zhejiang coastal area and the southern Fujian style, but is also full of the exotic atmosphere of the mountain and sea architecture in Southeast Asia. Against the backdrop of blue sky and blue sea, the entire building is built on the mountain, like a palace on the sea. Therefore, it is called the "Potala on the Sea". In 2012, Dongsha Community was listed as one of the first batch of key villages for protection and utilization of historical and cultural villages in Zhejiang Province. 🏚️Attraction name: Dongsha Fishing Village 📍Detailed address: Dongsha Fishing Village, Yuhuan City, Taizhou City, Zhejiang Province 🈺️Business hours: All day 🎫Ticket price: Free 🚌Transportation strategy: Take Yuhuan bus No. 122 and get off at Dongsha Pavilion Station 📷Travel tips: There are ancient houses left over from the Qing Dynasty, the "Qing Ancient Houses", and the Zoumalou, which is a unique architectural form among southern residential buildings. There are corridors all around the house, and you can even ride a horse in it unimpeded. Pu'an Lighthouse, the site of the ancient artillery fort, and other well-preserved ancient architectural ruins. The fishing village is not big, and the most beautiful attractions are at the top of the mountain. The scenery will become more and more amazing as you climb the steps. There is a staircase at the back of the fishing village where you can watch the sea and feel the sea breeze. There are homestays and seafood restaurants to choose from at the entrance of the fishing village, and all of them are served on the same day by local people fishing. It is recommended to drive there by yourself. There is no need to go too early. It is recommended to go in the evening to see the beautiful sunset. There are not many stores here. Dongsha Fishing Village is not large, so you don't have to go there specifically to stay nearby or visit it if you are visiting Yuhuan for the first time. There is also Dalu Island, which can be visited in less than an hour without climbing stairs. 📌Tips: The weather has been hot recently, so please take precautions against the sun when traveling outdoors. There is no high-speed rail in Yuhuan yet. Friends who are traveling from other provinces and cities can take the high-speed rail to Wenling Station. After taking the high-speed rail, it is recommended to rent a car and drive themselves.
