🚗 Transportation
I absolutely love Dongshan Island, the second largest island in Fujian! Take the high-speed train to Yunxiao Station, then transfer directly to bus No. 15 for 40 minutes to reach the island. Driving is also super convenient~ It’s just 2 hours from Xiamen to embrace the sea 🌊
2. 🎬 Must-visit Attractions
1️⃣ Nanmen Bay
This is the exact filming location from "The Left Ear"! The colorful small houses + crescent bay are incredibly artsy 💥 Strolling along the sea dike at dusk, every snap looks like a movie screenshot~ At night, the seafood snacks at Tongling Night Market are absolutely delicious!
2️⃣ Wind-moving Rock Scenic Area
A 200-ton giant rock has been suspended in the air for a thousand years without falling. Tickets cost 45 RMB 💰 It’s recommended to climb to Wengong Temple for a panoramic view—breathtaking!
3️⃣ Sufeng Mountain Island Road
Certified as Fujian’s version of "Little Kenting"! One side is a cliff, the other the sea. The Blue Bridge is perfect for photos—absolutely stunning~ The best time to visit is early morning or dusk 🌇
4️⃣ Jinluan Bay
A must-go for sunrise lovers! The mirror-like sandy beach is stunning, with few people and great for camping 🏕️
【Hidden Gems】
🐟 Fishbone Sandbar: A limited-time scenic spot that appears only at low tide! Perfect for aerial photography!
🌈 Butterfly Bay: Water slides + glass viewing platform, a great place to play in the water during summer~
