[2025 Wenling Attraction] Travel Guide for Sansuan Island (Updated Jul)

【Wenling 3-Day 2-Night Off-the-Beaten-Path Island Tour】This underestimated coastal town is full of surprises! Hello everyone! I just got back from Wenling and was completely blown away by this overlooked coastal city! In November, Wenling offers delicious seafood and few tourists. This personally tested guide will help you discover hidden experiences that even local Zhejiang residents keep secret! 🚗 Complete Transportation Guide ✈️ Flight: Recommend flying to Luqiao Airport (1-hour drive) 🚄 High-speed rail: Get off at Wenling Station (taxi to Shitang costs about 50 yuan) 🚗 Self-driving: About 4 hours from Hangzhou (directly via Shenhai Expressway) 🛵 Vehicle rental: Electric scooters 80 yuan/day (riding along the coastal highway is amazing) 🌊 Perfect 3-Day 2-Night Itinerary Day 1: Colorful Xiaoruo Village 📍 Xiaoruo Village (9:00-11:00) This macaron-colored fishing village is incredibly photogenic! Wear solid-colored clothes, and the morning light is best for photos. The coffee shop "Do Cafe" in the village offers spectacular views! 📍 Golden Sand Beach (15:00-18:00) A rare shell sand beach! During low tide, you can collect various beautiful shells, and at sunset, the entire beach turns golden! Day 2: Mountain and Sea Wonders 📍 Millennium Dawn Park (5:00-7:00) The first place on the Chinese mainland to receive sunlight! Check sunrise times in advance - watching the sun rise from the sea horizon is breathtaking! 📍 Coastal Greenway (9:00-11:00) An 8km coastal boardwalk! Mountains on one side and sea on the other, perfect for cycling or walking, with multiple viewing platforms along the way! Day 3: Island Exploration 📍 Sansuan Island (8:00-14:00) A secret island accessible only by boat! The black sand beach creates a striking contrast with the white lighthouse. There's only one seafood noodle restaurant on the island, so remember to bring snacks! 🍜 Food Recommendations and Warnings ✅ "Xin Rong Ji": Amazing seafood at the Wenling branch ✅ "Shitang House": Authentic Qian Gao and mountain tapioca ✅ "Xiaoruo Village Seafood Food Stall": Super fresh catch-to-table seafood ❌ Restaurants near tourist attractions: Overpriced 📸 TOP 5 Must-Visit Spots 1. Xiaoruo Village's colorful houses (Instagram-worthy) 2. Millennium Dawn Park sunrise (healing moment) 3. Sansuan Island black sand beach (truly secluded) 4. Coastal Greenway cycling (mountain and sea views) 5. Golden Sand Beach sunset (perfectly romantic) ⚠️ Important Notes 1. Large temperature differences between morning and evening in November, bring a jacket 🧥 2. Island transportation is limited, self-driving recommended 🚗 3. Ask for prices before ordering seafood 💰 4. Coastal rocks can be slippery, be careful 🪨 5. Weekend accommodation prices are 30% higher than weekdays 💰💰💰 The emotions Wenling gave me go far beyond the sea views. When I welcomed the first ray of sunlight at Dawn Park, chatted with fishermen in Xiaoruo Village, and listened to waves crashing against the rocks on the black sand beach, there were no crowded tourists - only the most authentic coastal life.

Finally found the ideal resort island city in my mind - Wenling, Taizhou! The uncanny workmanship of the grottoes, the romantic charm of the sea island, the unique charm of colorful fishing villages, and the deep undertones of ancient streets and walls, this place simply satisfies all my fantasies about the beauty of Jiangnan! If you are planning to take a 2 - 4 day short leisure vacation trip from Hangzhou, then this guide must be collected! Convenient transportation Take the high-speed rail directly to Wenling Station. After exiting the station, you can choose to travel by public transportation and taxi. Calling in Wenling is fast to receive orders, the price is very affordable, and it is super convenient to travel.

Must-visit attractions Changyu Tien: This severely underestimated attraction used to be a quarry, but now the interior landscape is diverse, "although it is made by man, it seems to be made in nature". Not only are there giant grotto Buddha statues, rich quarrying history displays, naive giant pandas, but you can also boat and play in the water. It is an excellent place to escape the summer heat. Xiaozhu Village: Once awarded the title of China's most beautiful fishing village, its ancient colorful stone houses, rainbow stairs, and a harbor full of ships are full of literary and artistic atmosphere. Standing on the top of Qilin Mountain opposite, you can have a panoramic view of the beautiful sunset. Dui Ring Viewing Platform: Best to go on a sunny day, the azure blue water complements the huge ring-shaped viewing platform, named for its resemblance to Dui Ring. At sunset, the platform glitters with golden light; Three Garlic Island: A small and special sheltered sea island, the island's ancient stone houses, sky, reefs, black beaches, do not have to go abroad to enjoy the scenery of Icelandic islands. Golden Beach/Dong'ao Beach (choose one): Closer to your accommodation, Golden Beach is known as "Mount Fuji" on the sea. Take advantage of the opportunity to visit Golden Beach. Ziyang Street: A very characteristic old street, lined with antique buildings. Here you can enjoy the food while strolling. The walls of Taizhou Prefecture are within easy reach. If you are tired of walking, find a small shop and enjoy the dim sum delicacies in a leisurely manner. Taizhou on the tip of the tongue - Embedded cake: highly recommended, the ones outside the scenic area are not only affordable, but also taste more authentic. - Qing cake: authentic taste, not to be missed. - Mountain flour ball: tastes like sweet dumplings, soft and sweet. - Bubble shrimp: a local specialty snack, taste varies from person to person. - Cheung Yuen Cooking Rice: Their eel soup tastes extremely delicious, the omelet omelet and gluten soup are quite good. Warm accommodation recommended The first choice is to live in Shitang Town, where the attractions are concentrated, the accommodation options are rich, there are all kinds of price points and design styles, many of them are still close to the mountains and rivers. The B&B I stayed in was quiet and comfortable, with an atmospheric lawn and floor-to-ceiling windows that opened the door, allowing you to have a great view of the Dui Ring viewing platform without leaving the house.
