My Spending Perspective Changed After 5 Days

🌸 Taizhou Travel Guide: A 5-Day Magical Journey Through Mountains and Sea 🌸 Day1️⃣: Shenxianju - Walking in the Clouds ✨ Recommended Activities: - Take the cable car up the mountain and walk across "Ruyi Bridge" (glass bridge, not for the faint-hearted!) - Find "Guanyin Peak" - doesn't it look like a deity making a peace sign? ✌️ - Try Xianju Eight Bowls after descending (eat like the immortals~) 🍴 Must-try: Xianju yangmei (June only), noodles with toppings 🏠 Accommodation: Guesthouses near Shenxianju (CNY 100-150 per person, mountain view from window) Day2️⃣: Wenling Shitang - Colorful Fairy Tale Town ✨ Recommended Activities: - Take photos of macaron-colored houses in Xiaoruo Village (wear a white dress for better photos!) - Feel the waves at Golden Beach (watch out for hermit crabs pinching your toes) - Watch sunset at Couple's Ring Viewing Platform (perfect for couples, singles beware) 🍴 Must-try: Qian Gao (rice cakes with everything), mountain tapioca 🚌 Transportation: Self-driving/chartered car recommended, public transport is troublesome Day3️⃣: Tiantai Mountain - A Zen Day Trip ✨ Recommended Activities: - Touch the 1,300-year-old Sui Dynasty plum tree at Guoqing Temple - Play in the water at Shiliang Waterfall (careful not to get soaked!) - Evening hot spring session (zen wellness time ♨️) 🍴 Must-try: Jiao Bing Tong (Tiantai's giant pancake roll) 🏠 Accommodation: Budget hotels in Tiantai County (CNY 80-120 per person) Day4️⃣: Linhai Ancient City - Carb Loading Day ✨ Recommended Activities: - Climb the Great Wall of Southern China (mini version of Beijing's, but still challenging) - Try all the glutinous snacks on Ziyang Street (egg white lamb tail, seaweed crackers...) - See the thousand-year-old cherry blossoms at Longxing Temple (spring exclusive romance) 🍴 Must-try: Mai Xia (not shrimp! It's a type of noodle), Zao Geng 📸 Bonus: Try a CNY 5 retro hair wash at old-style barbershops Day5️⃣: Dachen Island - Island Finale ✨ Recommended Activities: - Take a boat to see the waves (don't forget motion sickness pills!) - Take cliff photos at Jiawu Rock (pretend you're in Kenting) - Rent an electric scooter to circle the island (let the sea breeze blow your worries away~) 🍴 Must-try: Seafood Chicken (chicken raised on seafood, super fresh!) 🚢 Tip: Check ferry schedule in advance, service stops in bad weather 💡 Taizhou Survival Guide: 1️⃣ Transportation: Attractions are scattered, self-driving/car-pooling recommended, public transport takes longer 2️⃣ Dialect: Learn "Chi fa?" (Have you eaten?), elderly locals will be friendlier 3️⃣ Bargaining: Halve the price boldly at seafood markets, being shy will cost you 4️⃣ Equipment: Non-slip shoes! Waterfalls/island paths are slippery
