LIN SHANG REN JIA

Located in a small valley in Yongjia, Wenzhou, the transportation is very convenient. You can drive with your family and friends on weekends! There are several packages to choose from. You can choose roasted live lamb, roasted half lamb, or roasted quarter lamb. Of course, the roasted live lamb is a little more expensive, about 1,400 yuan, and eight to 10 stir-fried dishes are delivered! It's enough to eat. Don't worry about not being full. Our 9 adults and 2 children ate a lot.

[Environment] The location is located in the middle of the people on the mountain, not too high or too low, the environment is good, if the weather is good, it is very comfortable to sit outside. [Taste] I ordered a fresh roasted whole lamb, wow, it tastes really good, there is no lamb smell, the lamb offal soup is also very delicious, and it is even more perfect with a small beer! I especially recommend the stream fish and the pickled radish made by the boss lady herself, which is refreshing and delicious. [Service] The people in the store are all enthusiastic, and the service is also available. The boss lady is very warm and hospitable.

Nanxi River Landscape Poetry and Painting Tour Route Overview Route Name: Nanxi River Landscape Poetry and Painting Tour Route Length: Approximately 20 kilometers Suggested Visit Time: 1 day Best Time to Visit: Early mornings in spring and autumn 🌅 (Avoid the summer sun; the morning light and shadows are perfect for photos!) Must-Visit Highlights Shiwei Rock ⛰️ A 306-meter-high red boulder pierces the sky, surrounded by water on three sides, resembling a stranded giant ship. In the early morning, before the mist dissipates, its reflection in the river is breathtaking! Walking along the boardwalk, you can see it transform from different angles—sometimes like a ship's mast, sometimes like a lotus flower. Cangpo Ancient Village 🧱 The layout of the "Four Treasures of the Study" from the Song Dynasty is ingenious! The straight street is the "brush," the pond is the "ink," the square stone is the "inkstone," and the surrounding rice paddies are the "paper." The village elders say this layout was intended to encourage future generations to become scholars. Feeding the koi in front of Renji Temple is highly recommended; it's said to be incredibly effective! Lion Rock Rafting 🚣 Bamboo rafts float on the emerald green river, with the riverbanks resembling green ribbons. The boatmen will hum Wenzhou folk songs and point out the natural "Lion Playing with a Ball" rock formation. In the afternoon, when the sun shines obliquely, the water glistens, and every photo you take will be wallpaper-worthy! Hidden Gem: Ling Shang Ren Jia 🏮 An ancient village nestled halfway up a mountain, with stilted houses adorned with red lanterns. Enjoy roasted whole lamb on the terrace in the evening, watching the sunset paint the mountains gold—it's like a real-life version of Spirited Away! Daitou Ancient Village 🌳 Even quieter than Cangpo! The thousand-year-old camphor tree at the village entrance requires four people to encircle it, and the Yuan Dynasty stone walls are covered in moss. The village elders will invite you to drink their homemade rice wine, and you can even learn the traditional craft of rubbings. Food Recommendations Nanxi Wheat Cake 🥞 Made with preserved mustard greens and pork belly, grilled over charcoal until the crust is crispy. Best eaten fresh from roadside stalls, 5 yuan each, all you can eat! Ling Shang Ren Jia Roasted Whole Lamb 🐑 Freshly slaughtered lamb roasted over fruitwood charcoal, crispy skin and tender meat, absolutely delicious with local chili sauce! Recommended for 4 people to share one lamb, around 50 yuan per person for a satisfying meal. Stir-fried River Snails 🐚 River snails from the Nanxi River have no muddy taste. Stir-fried with perilla leaves, they're so fresh you'll lick your fingers. Remember to pair them with an ice-cold beer—perfect for cooling off in the summer! Practical Information Transportation 🚗 Take a minibus from Wenzhou Railway Station to Yantou Town (approx. 1.5 hours, 20 RMB). Once in Yantou, rent an electric scooter (60 RMB/day) or hire a car (200 RMB/day, suitable for 4 people sharing). Important Notes ⚠️ Wear non-slip shoes! The Shiweiyan boardwalk is very slippery in the rain. Bring mosquito repellent! The mosquitoes by the stream are extremely venomous. Choose rafting after 2 PM when the current is calmer and better for taking photos. Tips 💡 Free admission to Cangpo Ancient Village before 7:30 PM. Reservations for roasted whole lamb must be made 2 hours in advance. Conclusion This route allows you to experience the essence of the "cradle of landscape poetry" in one day—both the magnificent peaks and clear waters described by Xie Lingyun and the everyday life of old Wenzhou. Remember to save photos; every turn is a surprise! 🌟 #WenzhouNanxiRiver #OffTheBeatenPathDiscoveryClub #RomanticTravelDestinationInChina #WeekendGetaway #LeisureDestinations
