Unlock the poetry and romance of Xiapu~

🌅 Dreamy sunrise at sea​ The 4:30 AM alarm is not torture, but the call to romance! The sunrise at Beiqi tidal flats is truly spectacular. When the first ray of morning light pierces through the clouds and shines on the shimmering sea, the tidal flats instantly turn into golden silk. 🌊 Fishermen row small boats through the flats, their nets fluttering in the light and shadow, creating a stunning dynamic painting. (📸 Best photo spot: Beiqi Viewing Platform. Reserve your spot early; a telephoto lens can capture the wonderful moments of fishermen at work!)​ 🏡 Step into a real-life "Wizard of Oz" The ancient banyan tree grove at Yangjiaxi is full of mystery! Morning light filters through the branches of thousand-year-old banyan trees, casting countless golden rays. Old farmers lead oxen and carry loads beneath the trees, as if stepping into an ancient pastoral poem. ✔️ It’s recommended to wear Hanfu or traditional-style clothing. In the misty morning fog, every shot looks like a masterpiece. In the afternoon, you can take a boat downstream to enjoy the cool creek water and the tranquility of the green hills on both sides. ​ 🌊 Encounter the "Mirror of the Sky" Shajiang S Bay is definitely a paradise for photography lovers! At low tide, vast tidal flats are exposed, and the winding waterways form a unique "S" shape. Bamboo poles stand scattered on the flats, and fishing boats shuttle through, creating a rhythmical scene. At dusk, the sunset bathes the entire bay in warm orange hues. A drone shot from above delivers a full visual impact!​ ✨ Insider Tips for Fun → Don’t rush to leave Beiqi after watching the sunrise! After the tide recedes, you can join local fishermen to experience sea foraging. Tiny crabs, clams, sea snails, and more hide in the mudflats, making for a rewarding harvest. → It’s recommended to rent a bike in Yangjiaxi Scenic Area to freely explore the country lanes and discover many hidden beautiful photo spots. → Most guesthouses in Xiapu are near the sea. Choose a room with a viewing balcony so you can watch the tides rise and fall right from your bed. 💡【Travel Bonus】 ✔️ Taste authentic Xiapu seafood: oyster pancakes are crispy outside and tender inside, and yellow croaker cooked with rice noodles is full of fresh flavor. All this for about 50 RMB per person—so good you’ll be stuffed! ✔️ Join the fishermen’s night fishing activity. Go out to sea with experienced fishermen, enjoy the fun of net fishing, and you can even bring the catch back to the guesthouse for cooking. 📌 Outfit Guide: Light-colored long dress paired with a straw bag, plus a thin jacket for wind protection. Remember to wear comfortable shoes for walking on the tidal flats! Come to Xiapu and claim your exclusive seaside romance!
