【3 Days 2 Nights Ningde Travel Guide】Poetic Slow Life Between Mountains and Sea

✨Highlights: A symphony of mountains and sea in eastern Fujian! Explore stunning tidal flats recommended by "China National Geography" and immerse in thousand-year-old villages' cultural charm. Best of all? Few tourists and low prices make it Fujian's hidden gem destination~ 📍Itinerary Day1: Donghai No.1 Scenic Route→Gaoluo Beach→Dajing Beach • Rent a car to drive along Ningde's viral coastal highway (navigate to Jishi Park Observation Deck), featuring S-curves and ocean views all the way! • Free-entry Gaoluo Beach is perfect for crab hunting at low tide; Dajing Beach (¥30 entry) has finer sand, with optimal photo lighting after 4pm ✨Tips: Bring a windbreaker – overcast days create moody high-end photography Day2: Yangjiaxi Rongfeng Park→Banyueli She Ethnic Village • Visit Yangjiaxi at dawn! The Tyndall effect beams + farmer-with-ox scene are inside Rongfeng Park (¥18 ticket) • Banyueli preserves 300-year-old She architecture. Rent ethnic costumes (¥20/set) for photos – don't miss grandma's delicious black rice cakes at village entrance ✨Pro tip: Minimal commercialization means few restaurants; pack snacks Day3: Xiapu County→Beqi Mudflats (or Dongbi Village in Sansha Town) • Photographers must visit Beqi Mudflats at sunrise! Purple-pink dawn views are breathtaking (locate Beiqicun Primary School observation deck) • Artsy travelers prefer Dongbi Village's rainbow road + terraced B&Bs. Sip afternoon tea at viral Shijianhai B&B's terrace 🚗Transport Tips: 1️⃣Xiapu's attractions are scattered – charter cars (~¥300/day) or self-drive recommended 2️⃣22min high-speed rail from Ningde Station to Xiapu, but +40min drive to scenic spots 🍜Must-eat Foods: ▪️Xiapu sweet potato cakes (most authentic at A'Qiong's) ▪️Minnan thick soup (old shop opposite Sansha Cultural Center) ▪️Rice cakes (morning market at county farmers' market only) 🌊Hidden Experience: Join Gaoluo Beach's ¥198/person tidal foraging activity! Local fishermen teach razor clam/octopus hunting – they'll even cook your catch!
