#小岛 Dongshan Island is a romantic island that makes people forget their worries, a romantic island that makes people fall in love with the sky blue, and the most literary island. It is also the filming location of the movie "Left Ear" and "Your Wedding". And the prices are really convenient. To travel around the island, you must rent an electric car. It costs about $40 a day, depending on the horsepower of the car you rent. The main attractions on the island include the lighthouse, Fishbone Sandbank, Tianya Haijiao, and Bay Beach. Just walk there and take photos. Every place is very photogenic. It’s best to bring your drone when taking pictures of Fishbone Sandbank, otherwise you won’t know what you are taking. This is a place where aerial photography is a must. 📍Address: Dongshan County, Zhangzhou City, China

In the springtime on Dongshan Island, there is a unique beauty, especially during the sunrise and sunset, unveiling a chapter of travel that you can't afford to miss. Although Dongshan Island in Zhangzhou is small, its charm is infinite, especially these spots that I have carefully selected, each one deserves to be experienced wholeheartedly. 🛣️Route suggestion: From the dawn at Jinluan Bay to the lighthouse at Shuangmianhai, then to the Chenghuang Temple at Nanwangtiantai, and finally chasing the afterglow of the sunset at the Xiakeng Seafood Pier. 🌅Sunrise at Jinluan Bay: This place is like Fujian's mini Chaka Salt Lake, known as the most beautiful sunrise viewing spot. In the early morning, as the tide recedes, the beach forms a mirror reflecting the dazzling sunlight, like nature's mirror, a paradise for photography enthusiasts. Remember to check the sunrise time in advance and arrive early to avoid missing this magnificent spectacle. ⚠️Tips: The early spring mornings are cold, so it is recommended to stay in a homestay near Jinluan Bay for convenience in watching the sunrise. The homestay we stayed at was very cozy and reasonably priced. After leaving, a short walk or bike ride will take you there. 🏖️Shuangmianhai Lighthouse: The beach here forms a path to the small island when the tide is out, not only a filming location for the movie 'The Left Ear' but also a place where tourists leave beautiful memories. 🌄Nanwangtiantai and Chenghuang Temple: These two spots are adjacent to each other. Standing on the Tiantai, you can drink a cool beverage and enjoy the panoramic beauty of Dongshan Island. Descending to the Chenghuang Temple, you can experience more local color. 🌅Sunset at Xiakeng Seafood Pier: Recommended by the local tavern owner, the sunset view here is stunningly beautiful and complements the seafood. Although it is far from other attractions, driving or taking a ride there is the perfect way to end the day. In the spring of Dongshan Island, there is less hustle and bustle of crowds, more tranquility and beauty, and a small electric scooter can take you around the entire island, leaving behind unforgettable memories and beautiful picture

Babies, I'm here to share my new travel experience! This time I went to the beautiful Dongshan Island, where there are beautiful bays and retro fishing villages. Let me take you to appreciate it! 🌊 Day1: Nanmen Bay → Left Ear Terrace → Wengong Temple → Nanyu Double-sided Sea → Tongling Night Market After arriving at Dongshan Island in the morning, the first stop I chose was Nanmen Bay, which was once the filming location of the movie 'Left Ear'. On one side is the azure sea, and on the other side is the quaint fishing village, which is as beautiful as a poem. In the afternoon, I went to the Left Ear Terrace, which is an excellent place to watch the sunset. In the evening, I tasted local delicacies at the Tongling Night Market and felt the lively atmosphere of the fishing village. Day2: Sufeng Mountain Ring Island Road → Yanya Village → Color Spy Bay Sea Early in the morning on the second day, I got up early and went to Sufeng Mountain Ring Island Road to admire the beautiful sunrise, then came to Yanya Village to check in the filming location of 'Yanya Lovers', and finally experienced marine activities such as catching seafood in Color Spy Bay. Transportation suggestion: After arriving at Yunxiao Station by high-speed rail, you can take a bus directly to Dongshan Island. The fare is 10 yuan/person. If there are many people, you can choose to share a ride, the cost is 25 yuan/person. On Dongshan Island, it is recommended to rent a small electric donkey for travel, the rent is 60-80 yuan, and the off-season is 40 yuan. Be sure to ask about the battery life and return time when renting a car. Accommodation recommendation: Tongling Town is close to Nanmen Bay, there are many things to eat, and takeaway is also convenient. But it's noisy, especially by the sea. The price of sea view rooms is more expensive. Jinluan Bay can get up early to watch the sunrise, but the delivery of takeaways is more expensive and takes a long time. There are fewer things to eat nearby. If there are many people, it is recommended to share the room fee together and choose a single-family villa for living, where you can barbecue and cook. Dress suggestion: When taking pictures, it is recommended to wear bright or light-colored skirts, Japanese or Thai school uniforms, or camisoles with wide-leg pants or half skirts. Must check-in attractions: Nanmen Bay: On one side is the azure sea, and on the other side is the quaint fishing village. It is the filming location of the movie 'Left Ear'. Jinluan Bay: The mirror-like beach and sunrise complement each other, very dreamy. Nanyu: The green lighthouse is the filming location of the movie 'Your Wedding'. You need to watch the time to go there to prevent the tide from passing. Sufeng Mountain Ring Island Road: The super beautiful ring island road blue bridge, wearing a school uniform to take pictures is very out of the picture. The left hand is the blue sea, and the right hand is the green mountain, which is intoxicating. Wengong Temple: You can go up from the steps in the middle of Nanmen Bay and Fisherman's Wharf. It is the location of the movie 'Left Ear' terrace scene, where you can overlook Dongshan Island. Yanya Village: Check in the filming location of 'Yanya Lovers' and take pictures with the cliff as the background is very beautiful. Colorful Butterfly Bay: The colorful and vibrant bay like wings, there are special seaside small trains and rainbow train tracks in the park. Maluan Bay: 'Sea Amusement Park', there are many amusement projects. Left Ear Terrace: You can overlook the entire Nanmen Bay and it is an excellent place to watch the sunset. That's all for this share! If you also want to travel to Dongshan Island, I hope my guide can help you!

Aojiao Village is worth visiting, but the journey is about 28 kilometers and the condition of the national road is complicated, so cycling is not recommended. It is suggested to drive or take a taxi.

#Mainland China Attractions Dongshan Island, also known as Ling Island, is shaped like a butterfly and is also called Butterfly Island. It is located in Dongshan County, Zhangzhou City, on the southern coast of Fujian Province, China. It is the second largest island in Fujian Province. Dongshan Island has now gradually developed into a tourist destination in Fujian Province. The island includes scenic spots such as Tongshan Ancient City, Fengdong Stone, Maluan Bay, and Yingzui Rock. It has also been the site of film and television entertainment works such as "Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea", "Journey to the West", and "Left Ear", and its popularity has gradually increased. But the island still retains the flavor of a small fishing village. It is very comfortable to stroll along the beach, eat seafood, enjoy the scenery, and feel the sea breeze. In terms of transportation. It is recommended to take the high-speed rail to Yunxiao Station, and then you can call a taxi or take a bus to Dongshan Island. Because the island is large, there are many homestays and hotels. It is best to stay overnight and take a leisurely tour.

Getting There - Dongshan Island is a natural wonderland located in the Sortheast of Fujian Province. Hop on a train going to Yunxiao train station and from there there are buses running frequently taking you to the island (around 30 mins’ ride). Highlight - The island isn’t very big but it takes a bit time to see everything. During the stay we rented motorbikes from the side of street (very easy and convenient) at a very reasonable price. With a motorbike it’s so easy to get around and explore the island wherever you like. I particularly enjoyed visiting Sufeng Mountain and having a swim at Maluan Bay and Jiluan Bay. Locals all go to those beach to relax and enjoy the water and abundant sunshine. This island is charming in ways that I can’t put into words. I would highly recommend anyone who is into a relaxing (or even a wild) vacation to go and check it out! #awesomepic #urbanexplorer #tigeryear2022 #staycation #beachlife #summervacation #naturalwonders #beaches

🏝Destination Recommendation: Dongshan Island is located on the southeastern coast of Fujian, an isolated island that's popular with artistic films 🎬. Movies like "The Left Ear" and "Your Wedding" were filmed here, earning it the nickname "Fujian's Little Kenting." If you want to avoid crowded destinations during the May Day holiday, you can try this place. While countless people travel to Italy just to glimpse seaside towns, the people of Zhangzhou love visiting Dongshan Island. 🚗Transportation Guide: 🚅Take the high-speed train to Yunxiao Station, then take 🚌Bus No. 15 to Tongling Town, fare is 10 yuan. 🚕Driving: About two hours from Zhangzhou (on non-holidays). The advantage of driving is that you can stop and take photos anywhere along the Sufeng Mountain Ring Road. 🛏Hotel Information: There are many guesthouses on the island, but ocean-view rooms should be booked 1 month in advance during peak season. Now there's also a five-star hotel on the island - Yuehua Hotel. 🌟Must-visit Spots: 🌊Nanmen Bay: This has been a secret favorite for many sea lovers. It's the most artistic place on Dongshan Island, with half sea and half colorful houses scattered around. From a distance, it looks just like Santorini on the Aegean Sea. Ride along the Nanmen Bay coast enjoying the sea breeze, and when night falls and the lights come on, all that remains is romance. 🏖Fish Bone Sandbar: Dongshan Island doesn't just have artistic seas, but also world-class scenery. At Fish Bone Sandbar, you'll find Maldives-style views. This mysterious place only appears during low tide as a fish bone-shaped beach in the middle of the sea. From a distance, it looks like a huge whale surfacing, with its long tail still in the water. Interestingly, the direction of the "fish tail" changes with the tides and monsoon winds. 🛤Sufeng Mountain Ring Road: With mountains on one side and sea on the other, Sufeng Mountain Ring Road is known as the "most beautiful coastal racing track" and is an unmissable destination on Dongshan Island. 🛍Shopping Guide: Visit Tongling Fisherman's Wharf between 4 - 6 AM to buy freshly landed seafood directly from fishermen. Prices are 20% - 30% cheaper than the market, and you can even bargain㊙️. 📌Small Tips: It's recommended to drive yourself or rent an electric scooter on the island (about 80 yuan on non-holidays).

🚗Navigation: Sufeng Mountain Madiye Temple (There are actually parking lots in the north and south, you can enter from either side.) 💰Tickets: Free ⏰Opening Hours: All day ☕️Food: Yes 🏃‍♀️Suitable for: Taking photos📷, etc. 🅿️Parking: Yes 🚘Transportation: Self-driving/High-speed train to Yunxiao Station—Bus to Dongshan 🕹Address: Dongshan County, Zhangzhou City, Fujian Province 🧭Navigation: Navigate to Sufeng Mountain ⏰️Opening hours: Electric car operating hours 08:00–18:00, 10–15 minutes/trip

I went to Zhangzhou Dongshan Island on the second day of the May Day holiday. There was no traffic jam along the way, but there were too many vehicles in the scenic area, so traffic control was implemented about 1.5 kilometers away from the beach 🏝️, and the car had to park far away. Walk to Nanmen Bay, the beach here is relatively small, but the sea water 🌊 is very blue, and tourists are also concentrated in this area. Walk from the food street, and there are tourists sitting around the embankment all the way. The scenery is nice, but it is really crowded and sunny! Walk to the filming location of the movie "Left Ear", 🌿South View Terrace. Here you need to go through the alley and walk up the stone stairs to "go up the mountain". It feels a bit like a mountain town. There are many people on the way to the coffee shop. Walk up a little bit, walk to the back of the temple, and then go up one level to the terrace. There are few people here, and it is also good to take pictures from a high place. In general, it is quite comfortable to visit Dongshan Island during non-holidays. The experience is not so good during holidays. I didn’t get to eat the fragrant ginger duck I wanted to eat because there were too many people. I will come again when I have a chance. 📍Address: Dongshan Island, Zhangzhou City, Fujian Province 🚗Transportation: It takes about 1.5 hours to drive from Chaozhou Ancient City

Save this post and let's go! 🌼 [Landscapes to Heal Your Soul] Stop 1: Secret Spots Around Hangzhou 🌿 Lucun Village, Tonglu Travelers in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Shanghai, listen up! This small village hidden on the banks of the Fuchun River is like a real-life "Little Forest" 🌳. Ride along the greenway 🚲, and the breeze blowing through the rice fields smells like spring. I recommend staying overnight in a riverside homestay and sitting on the terrace in the evening to watch the sunset over the river. The atmosphere is amazing 🌇. 🍽️ Must-eats: Fried buns with stinky tofu (crispy on the outside and tender on the inside!), fermented rice wine buns with braised pork (so delicious!) 🌿 Yucun Village, Anji The birthplace of "Green mountains and clear waters are gold and silver mountains" truly lives up to its name!

So relaxing! 🌸 [Romantic Coastal Style] Stop 2: Lesser-Known Coasts of Fujian 🌊 Nanmen Bay, Dongshan Island The filming location of "The Left Ear" is so photogenic! The colorful houses line the coast, making you feel like you've stepped into a fairy tale town 🎨. Rent a scooter and ride around the island 🛵, feel the sea breeze, and listen to the waves.

Although you may not see them during the May Day holiday, the daytime windmill fields + jelly-like sea are already amazing! Ride along the coastal road, and watch the white windmills turn. Every photo you take will look like a scene from a movie 🎬. Remember to go to the Northern Bay Ecological Corridor for a panoramic view. The sea breeze is super comfortable. 🌾 [Slow-Paced Country Life] Stop 3: Secluded Villages in Jiangxi 🌿 Jiangling, Wuyuan Although spring is the peak season for rapeseed flowers, Jiangling in May Day is still breathtaking! The terraced fields are lush and green, dotted with ancient villages with white walls and gray tiles, like a breathing ink painting 🖼️. I recommend hiking the "Flower Field Path" and encountering streams, ancient trees, and bamboo sieves for drying crops. The everyday life is full of poetry. 🍚 Must-eats: Steamed pork with rice flour (fragrant but not greasy!), Steamed rice cake (soft and slightly sweet!) 🌿 Taoxichuan, Jingdezhen Art lovers must visit! The cultural and creative block transformed from old factories is so stylish.

Remember to book accommodations in advance during the May Day peak season! The earlier you book your homestay/hotel, the better the deal. 2. For short trips, I recommend packing light. Bring a backpack + comfortable sneakers, so you won't get tired even after walking all day. 3. Try to visit popular attractions during off-peak hours. The experience is better before 9am or after 4pm.

Stand on the ocean-viewing wooden walkway waiting for the tide to wash over the reefs, and suddenly understand that the ancient "fairy mountain on the sea" is no myth⛰️. **Hidden Route**: Slip out through the side door of Guandi Temple, walk 5 minutes to Hukong Diyu, where black reef clusters transform you into a dark goddess for photos🧜♀️ **🌌 Evening | Waiting for Shooting Stars at the Left Ear Rooftop** Sprawl like a cat on the "Island Language" hostel rooftop when the owner suddenly points to the sky shouting "Shooting star!"
