[2025 Zhoushan Restaurant] Travel Guide for Five Sen5es (Updated Jun)

### **Wushitang Travel Guide: Exploring Zhoushan's Black Stone Paradise and Experiencing Slow Fishing Village Life** **📍 Destination Introduction** Wushitang is located on the eastern coast of Zhujiajian Island in Zhoushan, Zhejiang. It's a natural beach composed of black pebbles. These stones have been polished by ocean waves over millions of years, becoming smooth, black, and glossy, reflecting a metallic sheen in the sunlight. When the tide rises and falls, the stones make a crisp "splash" sound, earning the name "Listening to the Tide at Black Stone Beach." Beyond its unique black stone beach, the area features a quaint fishing village, fresh seafood, and authentic fishing culture, making it a less-crowded yet charming destination in Zhoushan. --- ### **🚗 Transportation Guide** 1. **Self-driving** (recommended): Navigate to "Zhujiajian Wushitang Scenic Area." From Zhoushan Island, it takes about 30 minutes via the Zhujiajian Bridge. The scenic area has a parking lot (fee: approximately 10-20 yuan/day). 2. **Public Transportation**: - Take bus [Zhu Line 1] or [Zhu Line 8] from Zhujiajian Town to "Wushitang" station. - From Putuoshan, Shenjiamen, and other locations, take a ferry to Zhujiajian, then a taxi (about 15 minutes). --- ### **🎫 Tickets & Opening Hours** - **Admission**: About 30 yuan/person (may adjust during peak season) - **Opening Hours**: 8:00-17:30 (may extend during summer) --- ### **🌟 Must-Do Experiences** 1. **Stroll on the Black Stone Beach** - Walk barefoot on the glossy black pebbles, feel the unique sensation of waves washing over the stones, and listen to the crisp sound of water colliding with rocks. - 📸 **Photography Tip**: During sunrise or sunset, the contrast between the black stones and the blue sea creates stunning photos! 2. **Visit the Observation Deck for Panoramic Views** - The scenic area has observation platforms overlooking the entire Wushitang and fishing port, with distant views of the East China Sea. 3. **Explore the Fishing Village** - Wushitang Village still maintains traditional fishing life.

China Elements Chinese Restaurant, The Westin Zhujiajian Resort, Zhoushan 🧚‍♀️Highlights: ❤️❤️I have always liked Westin hotels in different cities. When I came to Zhoushan to see the sea, I naturally couldn't miss the best luxury hotel here, the Westin. First of all, the location is excellent, right next to Dongsha Beach. Even during holidays, there are few tourists. Hotel guests can enter the beach with their ID cards; ❤️❤️Secondly, the artificial wave pool here is great for relaxing on an island vacation. Although the sea water in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Shanghai is not as clear and bright as in Sanya, you can still have fun in the water~ ✍Tips: 👍Most of the hotel rooms are sea view rooms, but there are also independent villas. I experienced both. Maybe because the sea here is not very blue, I wasn't particularly excited to see the sea. Instead, the villa rooms have more of a vacation vibe, and the private pool is more fun. ❣️Address: No. 1288 Jiari Road, Zhujiajian, Zhoushan

It is considered a relatively good resort hotel in Zhoushan. The owner of Green City is in the same area as Green City's self-operated Dongsha Hotel. 📍After returning from Putuo Mountain, from Centipede Temple Pier🚗 to Zhujiajian for more than ten minutes, a seaside vacation is good 🏝The Westin Hotel is located in the Dongsha Scenic Area. Guests can enter for free with their Mainland China ID cards. Unfortunately, the outdoor swimming pool is not open. 🔶 One thing to complain about is that this Dongsha Beach is not a public beach, it is a scenic spot, you have to buy 🎫 tickets to enter. The hotel front desk will buy good tickets for free, but to go to the beach you have to bring your Mainland China ID card through the gate to enter ☹️ is not very convenient. The sea 🌊 in Zhoushan is a bit yellow in color, slightly better on sunny days, but far worse than Hainan. However, the sand on Dongsha Beach is of good quality, especially small and soft, very comfortable to step on☺️ 🏫 Sea view suite has a good view, estimated to be more than 100 square meters, the balcony is very large. Compared to other brands under Marriott, I personally think Westin bedding is more comfortable (St. Regis is also good).
