I escaped the 996 grind and landed in this visa-free island nation, and here's what happened…

🏖 I was stunned by the creamy waves on Mahé Island, chased the sunset by bike on La Digue Island, and was charmed by giant tortoises on Bird Island… 🇸🇨 This is Seychelles! Half of the country is a nature reserve with rich biodiversity, a true "Utopian Island Nation"~ 🔝 Seven "Mosts" of the World! 🌴 World's Best Ecotourism Island: Bird Island, selected by the BBC as one of the world's top ten best ecotourism destinations. 🌴 World's Cleanest Waters: Over 50% of Seychelles is designated as a nature reserve, and its waters are rated by the UN as the cleanest in the world. 🌴 World's Most Beautiful Beach: Anse Source d'Argent, voted the world's most beautiful beach by National Geographic magazine. 🌴 World's Oldest Giant Tortoises: Seychelles' giant tortoises are enormous, with an average lifespan of 200-300 years! 🌴 World's Smallest Capital: Victoria, which can be explored by car in 30 minutes. 🌴 World's Most Expensive Hotel: In 2013, North Island Hotel in Seychelles topped the list of the world's ten most expensive hotels.

The artificial Eden Island is modern and perfect for photos. Sainte Anne National Marine Park is a great place for boat trips. 2️⃣ Praslin Island The second largest island, accessible by a 15-minute flight or a 1-hour-15-minute boat ride. Vallée de Mai offers a glimpse of rare flora and fauna, and the stunning seascape of Anse Lazio is captivating, every shot a masterpiece. 3️⃣ Silhouette Island Lush vegetation and snow-white beaches. The island's only hotel, the Hilton Seychelles Labriz Resort & Spa, is full of character. Spend a night here and enjoy the tranquility and beauty. 4️⃣ La Digue Island Perfect for cycling and sightseeing, taking in the scenery at a leisurely pace. Anse Source d'Argent, glass-bottom boat tours, and giant granite boulders, every scene is unique and charming. 📆 Best Travel Season November to April is Seychelles' rainy season, offering affordable travel and great value. May to October is relatively more expensive. ⚠️ Also, be sure to avoid European and American holidays like Christmas, New Year's, and Easter, to avoid crowds and higher prices. 🥘 Food Recommendations Seychellois cuisine is a fusion of flavors. Don't miss Creole cuisine, with its rich blend of curry, coconut, and fresh seafood. Grilled octopus, tender and infused with spices, is another must-try. The local fruits are also abundant, fresh, and juicy. 💡 Travel Tips 1. Seychelles has many narrow mountain roads, mostly without sidewalks. Be careful when walking. 2. It is strictly forbidden to take local shells out of the country, or you will face a fine. Don't let a moment of carelessness cause you a loss. 3. The power outlets are British three-pin. Remember to bring a power adapter, or your electronic devices will "go on strike." 4. Seychelles offers visa-free entry to Chinese tourists. Just prepare a passport valid for at least 6️⃣ months, flight tickets, and hotel itinerary, and you're ready to go!
