It is said that this was once a small island in the sea, and as time went by, it became land, creating the first scenic spot in the East China Sea that we see today, which is Yuntai Mountain on the sea in Lianyungang! Yuntai Mountain on the sea is surrounded by the sea on three sides, with mountains and seas dependent on each other. It is the second highest peak in Jiangsu Province and a landmark scenery of Lianyungang. √How to play in Yuntai Mountain on the sea? The scenery of Yuntai Mountain goes from the top of the mountain to the bottom. It is recommended to buy a scenic shuttle bus at the bottom of the mountain. You can shuttle back and forth between the bottom and the top of the mountain, get off and get on at any time, and go to the next scenic spot by waiting for the bus at the bus stop after playing in one place, which is very convenient. √What to play in Yuntai Mountain on the sea? ·Cloud Top: This is the commanding height of Yuntai Mountain. Standing on the viewing platform, you can overlook the blue sea and sky, the giant ship entering the port, and the island standing in the middle of the sea, with a panoramic view of the seaport. In addition to overlooking the seaport scenery from the viewing platform, of course, you can also slow down and take a walk on the wooden plank road built along the mountain, climb the mountain, look at the sea, and enjoy the endless beauty that nature brings to us. ·Wudao Temple: Yuntai Mountain is a mountain where natural scenery and cultural relics coexist. The Wudao Temple on the mountain is the only remaining ancient temple among the 72 temples of Yuntai. It is hidden in a lush bamboo forest, with bamboo covering it, and the environment is quiet, which is a super place for big shots. ·Fa Qi Temple: It was built in the Han Dynasty and has a history of more than 1900 years. It is one of the early temples in China and has been known as the 'First Jungle of Huaihai' since ancient times. Ticket: 60 yuan for adults, 90 yuan for tickets + round-trip sightseeing car Opening hours: Off-season 08:30-16:00, peak season 08:30-17:30 Transportation: You can drive by yourself, or you can take the BRT to Xugou 149 platform in Lianyungang city, change to bus 34/35 at the opposite ordinary bus platform, get off at the terminal Sicheng station, and walk 500 west to reach the main entrance of the scenic spot. Yuntai Mountain on the sea, mountains and seas will meet each other, and the scenery here is unique. 'Yuyu Cangwu Sea Mountain, Penglai Fangzhang has no gap.' The poem written by Su Shi is about Yuntai Mountain in Lianyungang, Jiangsu. The view from the top of Yuntai Mountain is excellent.

During the holiday, I wanted to take myself outside to get some sun and clear the boredom of the workday. It happened to be the Yuntaishan Coffee Festival on the sea. The coffee I drink here is really different from the coffee I usually drink. I usually drink it to wake up my mind for work, so I feel a little reluctant. Drinking here is the real enjoyment of life and coffee. From 10:00 am to 18:00 pm, at this Tangwang Lake RV camp, various activities make me feel bright, and the concerts on the lakeside make me feel so comfortable! It's almost noon and I feel a bit bored. Go to the main stage of the event and listen to a passionate talk show. The name is also quite unique, "Want to enter the coffee dream garden" to watch the master make coffee on the spot. The aroma makes people feel relaxed and happy. The coffee surroundings sold by each merchant are the kind that young people will fall in love with. It is a coffee carnival tailor-made for us coffee-heads. If you are interested, go and have a look. There are also cruise projects and accommodation services on site. Invite three or five friends to have a camping trip full of coffee aroma. It's wonderful to think about it. Yuntai Mountain on the Sea in Lianyungang, Jiangsu
