Taizhou Travel Guide

Oh no, you've missed out on quite a lot of excitement! But it's too late for regrets, so let me help you reorganize your thoughts about this lesser-known yet treasure-filled historical city—Taizhou! Taizhou, this hidden gem of an ancient city, is truly a sight to behold. When it comes to attractions, there are a few places you absolutely must not miss! First up is Ziyang Ancient Street. It's located in Linhai City, Taizhou. Take a high-speed train to Linhai Station, and then a taxi for about 50 minutes to get there. The sticky delicacies and seaweed cakes here are not to be missed; they're worth waiting in line for, no matter how long. The whole street is steeped in a rich cultural atmosphere, making it a great spot for taking photos and checking in. Then, there's Wenling. Take a high-speed train to Wenling Station, and a taxi will get you there in an hour. Xiaoruo Village is known as the Zhejiang version of Cinque Terre, with colorful houses straight out of a fairy tale; the Couple's Viewing Platform looks like a pair of rings from an aerial view, so romantic it could make you cry; Jinsha Beach and Pearl Beach both have super long coastlines, perfect for a weekend getaway; and there's 'Little Fuji Mountain,' a solitary island with a unique charm. Don't forget about Guoqing Temple, located in the Guoqing Scenic Area of Tiantai County, Taizhou. Take a high-speed train to Tiantai Mountain Station, and then a 15-minute taxi ride. The temple is known for its reputation 'If the temple prospers, the nation will be clear,' and every inch of land is permeated with the traces of time. Inside the temple, there's also a 1400-year-old Sui Dynasty plum tree, which is quite spectacular. Oh, and the Taizhou Prefecture City Wall is also worth a visit. It's right next to Ziyang Ancient Street and within walking distance. The semi-circular city wall surrounds the ancient city of Taizhou, and walking from Xingshan Gate to Wangtiantai, you can enjoy a panoramic view of Linhai from above. Accommodation recommendation: I recommend Taizhou's Sky City, which is like stepping into the world of Hayao Miyazaki's anime. It's located in Pingtian Township, Huangyan District, Taizhou. Take a high-speed train to Taizhou West Station and then a taxi for an hour to get there. There are floating islands, Miyazaki's anime world, little trains, the Sky Mirror, and other super fun attractions, as well as super large tent lake view rooms and starry sky bubble rooms, which are simply irresistible. If you come here during the Spring Festival, there are various festive activities waiting for you! Food recommendation: Taizhou is a paradise for food lovers. Tianwangshun seaweed cakes, Hongchi Qiangao shop, Anling sweet potato fries, Chenji black rice mochi, Aunt Wang's plum cake, Aunt Zhu's egg white lamb tail, and Martyrs' Mountain Lü-style shrimp, each one is mouth-watering. Oh my, after talking so much, aren't you already eager to explore Taizhou? Then don't hesitate any longer, take action now!
