There are many delicious foods in Taizhou, among which is the rice cake. The glutinous rice cake is mixed with rich side dishes and has a very unique taste.

This time I went to Linhai + Jiaojiang. There were so many delicious foods. I couldn't eat them all. In comparison, there weren't too many attractions. The main attraction was food! Because there were too many words! So I wrote about the food and attractions on P2-P4. P2➡️Taizhou Jiaojiang Food P3➡️Taizhou Linhai Food P4➡️Linhai + Jiaojiang Attractions #Travel Guide #Travel Food Scenery #Real Delicious Snacks Collection

Departing at 9 am, arriving directly in Linhai by noon, and booking a hotel near Chonghe Gate, we embarked on a leisurely stroll and food adventure! Local snacks are a must-try, and the attractions are less crowded and more beautiful. Perfect for a relaxing family outing or a relaxing walk with kids. Save this guide for future recommendations! 🍜Must-Try Foods: Local Hides, Avoiding the Popular Trends 1. Jiajia Hongchi Qian Gao (The one further in from the intersection) Look for the one frequented by locals! The qian gao is huge, packed with filling and infused with juicy goodness—absolutely delicious! Highly recommend pairing it with tofu soup; the firm tofu and fried tofu soak up the broth, incredibly flavorful—perfect for breakfast or lunch! (There's another Hongchi Qian Gao shop at the intersection, don't go to the wrong one!) 2. Lüshi Pao Xia (Ziyang Street) A popular dish on Ziyang Street, worth the wait! Crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with a generous filling, savory and delicious. Grab one while strolling through the old street and enjoy it on the go! 3. Wang Tianshun Seaweed Cake (Ziyang Street) Multiple branches along Ziyang Street. Go to the one with the longest queue! The seaweed cake is crispy and crumbly, slightly sweet and not greasy, with a super rich seaweed aroma – a must-buy! Not recommended, though; you can't taste any chestnut at all. Don't miss it! 4. Chen Ji Shrimp Noodle Shop (Local Popularity) This small shop is packed with locals, full of local charm! The Three Delicacies Shrimp Noodle is a must-order: dried shrimp, egg pancake, and clams are perfectly combined, the soup is flavorful and the shrimp has a chewy texture. Be careful with the pork chop noodles: the pork chop is chopped and overcooked, and the noodles have a cornstarch taste – a mediocre experience. 5. Rong Xiaoguan (Affordable Dining Choice) A budget-friendly restaurant under the Rong Ji brand. The food is good, and there's no need to queue on weekdays. The ingredients are fresh, and the price is reasonable. A good place to eat after a long day of shopping – satisfying and comforting. 📍Must-Visit Attractions: Free + Less Crowded, Relaxing and Comfortable 1. Donghu Lake (Adults 15 RMB/person) Within walking distance of the hotel, the park is quite large and not crowded, perfect for a leisurely stroll and sunbathing. The lake water is clear, and the greenery is lush; a walk around is incredibly therapeutic. I'm truly envious of the daily life of the people of Linhai! 2. Jiangnan Great Wall (Free Admission Guide) Want to save on admission? Remember the times: Free admission before 7 AM and after 6 PM! We walked to Lansheng Gate early in the morning, entered through the ticket gate below Haohan Slope, climbed 198 steps, and waited for the city gate to open at 7 AM to enjoy the scenery. Recommended route: Enter through Lansheng Gate—exit through Xingshan Gate. Except for the initial steps, the subsequent section is relatively flat, taking about 2 hours to walk and enjoy the views. Along the way, you'll pass a deer park (you can feed the deer), a plum garden (currently no plum blossoms), and the City God Temple (ancient trees with lush foliage, very impressive), with stunning scenery. 🏠Accommodation Recommendation: Hanting Hotel (Chonghe Branch) The location is amazing! It's only about 1 kilometer from Donghu Lake, Ziyang Street, and Lansheng Gate, all within walking distance, making it super convenient for taking the kids out. There's a parking lot, but the entrance is small and a bit difficult to drive in. The soundproofing is so-so; there's square dancing music in the evenings, but the receptionist is incredibly helpful and will assist in finding a quiet room. The breakfast is plentiful, including local specialties like seaweed cakes. They even give you a complimentary seaweed cake and snacks gift before you leave – so thoughtful! #LinhaiTourism #TaizhouFood #LocalSnackGuide #JiangnanGreatWall #OffTheBeatenPathTravelDestination #LazyKidTravel #WinterTravel

🌟 Taizhou December Trip: The Truth About It | My Filter Was Shattered! But This Trip Can Save Me! 🌟 Just got back from Taizhou with my best friend, and I'm completely devastated! 😭 I thought December would be the off-season with fewer crowds and more beautiful scenery, but we were hit with a triple whammy of freezing winds, exorbitant entrance fees, and inconvenient transportation! But after figuring things out, we actually managed to have a 4-day trip on just 1500 RMB per person (including high-speed rail!). I've compiled this "demystified" travel guide with tears in my eyes… 💸 Budget: 4 days and 3 nights cost 1520 RMB, where did all the money go? Project Costs (Per Person) - A Heartbreaking Summary: Round-trip transportation: 600 RMB (Shanghai-Taizhou high-speed rail round trip). Early bird tickets purchased 1 month in advance via 12306. Accommodation: 3 nights: 450 RMB (economy hotel in Jiaojiang District). 150 RMB per person per night; choosing accommodations near the high-speed rail station is more cost-effective. Attraction tickets: 270 RMB. Only selected essential attractions; combined tickets have many pitfalls. Food and miscellaneous expenses: 200 RMB. Snacks + supermarket self-catering, 50 RMB per day for a full meal. Total: 1520 RMB. Low cost-performance ratio, but the scenery is unbeatable! 💡 Key to Saving Money: ✅ Book Dachen Island ferry tickets 3 days in advance (easily sold out during peak season). Jiaojiang-Xia Dachen ferry route takes about 2 hours one way; economy class price: 130 RMB per person. ✅ Choose accommodation near Wanda Plaza in Jiaojiang District; convenient public transportation and many dining options. ✅ Taizhou City Wall ticket: 60 RMB. Ziyang Ancient Street is free to explore and eat, making it more affordable. 🏞️ Attractions: I've Avoided These Pitfalls for You! 1️⃣ Shenxianju – A Fairyland of Clouds and Mist, But Freezing Cold Real-time report: Entrance fee 110 yuan, cable car 80 yuan extra, -5℃ at the summit with biting wind! Queues for photos at the popular Ruyi Bridge start at 1 hour. Tips: Enter the park before 9 am to avoid crowds, wear non-slip shoes! Higher probability of sea of ​​clouds after rain. Alternative: Tiantai Mountain Scenic Area entrance fee 60 yuan, winter snow scenery comparable to Shenxianju. 2️⃣ Dachen Island – Frequent Ferry Cancellations Due to Strong Winds Highlights: Stunning sunset at Jiawu Rock, panoramic views from the Reclamation Monument Brutal: 50% ferry cancellation rate in December, check ferry information before going to the island! Insufficient heating in guesthouses on the island. Bonus: Seafood noodles on Dachen Island 25 yuan/bowl, generous portions. 3️⃣ Guoqing Temple – The Tranquil Beauty of a Thousand-Year-Old Temple Real-time report: The ancestral temple of the Tiantai School of Buddhism, with over 1400 years of history, a Sui Dynasty temple. The temple's architecture is simple and elegant, and the Sui Dynasty pagoda has stood for a thousand years. Tip: Dining options around the temple are limited; it's recommended to return to the city center or have a meal before visiting. 4️⃣ Ziyang Ancient Street – Tempting Snacks, But Exorbitant Prices What to Do: Seaweed pancakes are freshly baked for 3 yuan each, but the popular shops have queues of 30+ minutes. Avoid: "Taizhou specialties" are overpriced; the same items are 30% cheaper at the local market. 🗺️ Itinerary: A 4-Day Survival Itinerary Day 1: Taizhou City Cultural Route Morning: Hike along the Taizhou City Wall (Jiangnan Great Wall) → Panoramic view from Lansheng Gate Afternoon: Donghu Garden (Entrance fee 15 yuan) → Enjoy seaweed pancakes at Ziyang Ancient Street Evening: Book ferry tickets to Dachen Island at Jiaojiang Wharf Day 2: Island Getaway Full Day: Dachen Island Tour (Jiawu Rock → Reclamation Monument) Evening: Watch the sunset at Jiawu Rock Resort Hotel Evening: Eat yellow croaker at a seafood stall (80 RMB per person) Day 3: Mountain Blessing Tour Morning: Drink tea under the Sui Plum Blossom at Guoqing Temple (5 RMB/cup) Afternoon: See Shiliang Waterfall at Tiantai Mountain Scenic Area Evening: Eat dumplings and pancakes at Zhexi Old Street Day 4: Leisurely Finishing Trip Morning: View stone culture at Changyu Grottoes (120 RMB entrance fee) Afternoon: Buy souvenirs at Luqiao Zhongcheng Plaza → Return trip 🍜 Food Section: Authentic Flavors for 30 RMB per person 🔥 Recommended Food List (Personally Tested and Guaranteed!)

Finally, the honest truth: December in Taizhou— The misty mountains are real, the seafood is delicious; But when I stood under the thousand-year-old Sui Dynasty plum tree at Guoqing Temple, watching the sunlight filter through the branches and fall on the yellow walls, I suddenly understood: the real travel is where the filter is shattered. #JourneyLikeASong #CityCultureNotes #NicheDiscoverySociety
