A one-day tour of Chaozhou with me guarantees no dining mishaps

A one-day foodie itinerary in Chaozhou: Departing from Xiamen, Chaozhou Station is your first stop, just an hour's drive away. 🚗 Take a taxi straight to Guantang Brothers Beef Hotpot (main store), where the hotpot is really delicious! Highly recommended! The average cost per person is over 70 yuan, the beef is tender and fragrant, and you must visit the main store! 🏯 Next, head to the Thai Buddha Temple, dress up in ancient costumes for a photo shoot📸 A wonderful experience for just 40 yuan for a costume rental. 🛵 Then take a 15 yuan trishaw across the river to Paifang Street; the 'Qicong Song Licorice Fruit' at the entrance of Paifang Street is the tastiest, you can't go wrong choosing it! It's much cheaper than in Xiamen and even more delicious! 🚲 Ride an electric tricycle to tour the ancient city of Chaozhou, 40 yuan per person on average. You can visit more distant attractions, stop whenever you want, and get explanations: visit Jia Di Alley to see the mansion of a top official; make a prayer at the ancient Kouchi Temple, wash your hands in the ancient well for clear vision; visit the Fuma Mansion (super photogenic at the entrance); then ride back to Paifang Street. 🍽 Randomly find a small shop along the way to try the Fucheng fermented tofu chicken wings➕ Lao Wei Almond Tea, a bit regretful, ate too much, should have saved some room for dinner. 🍵 Take a walk to Guangji Tower, to see the Guangji Bridge; afterwards, visit Tianyuan Temple, and nearby 'Tianshan Chaoming' to drink authentic Chaozhou Kungfu tea, the peach-flavored tea is so delicious! An entire afternoon and you'll feel completely relaxed! 🦀 Finally, head to 'Yuan Dan Wine Ingredients', recommended by local friends as the best raw marinated shop, and indeed they were right, the raw marinated crab paste is only a hundred yuan or so, and it's incredibly tasty! Then, take away food from the nearby 'Xikou Liu Bu Goose Meat Shop', have porridge with goose meat and goose liver, oh my, so tender and fragrant! 🍊 Buy a cup of fresh squeezed kumquat juice at the intersection, then take a taxi to the high-speed train station to go home. The high-speed train at seven something arrives in Xiamen at eight something. For friends with limited free time, such a one-day round trip is perfect! Although it's only an hour's drive, it's actually a cross-provincial trip! Got to eat everything I wanted! Saw everything I wanted to see! Perfect!
