    I used to have an annual pass when I was in college and visited often. After I started working, everyone said the tickets were expensive and there wasn't much to see. But you wouldn't believe it, Huguangyan is a place I often dream about in the middle of the night; it's a beautiful place in my heart. It's worth taking a walk around it on a clear afternoon (it takes about 2 hours to walk around), and at the end, you can enjoy a visual feast of the sunset.

    You can see tanks, bombers, and Q-8 fighter jets. You can go up to the bombers and transport planes and experience the pilot's position. The bomber cabin is quite narrow, and because there are no trees on either side, it's very sunny, but it's still worth a visit to learn about China's strength.

    Zhanjiang, a hidden gem of a coastal city at the southernmost tip of mainland China. The Sheraton Hotel I stayed at is right across from the Jinsha Bay Seaview Promenade. A stroll along the promenade, enjoying the sea breeze and swaying coconut palms, is incredibly relaxing. Buying boat tickets on Ctrip is a great deal! A ten-minute walk from the hotel, you can take a red-billed gull cruise to admire the magnificent military port stretching for miles. Solemn and mysterious, with one imposing warship after another before your eyes, your heart is filled with excitement [heart emoji]. A surge of pride and security wells up within you. 🇨🇳

    Nanji Village, located in Xuwen, Guangdong, is the southernmost point of mainland China, directly opposite Hainan Island. The attractions are free, and accommodation is convenient. Guesthouses offer free electric scooters, and the southernmost lighthouse is just 4 kilometers away. This area also marks the confluence of the Qiongzhou Strait and the Beibu Gulf, creating a "cross tide" or "kissing tide" at high tide. ☺ It was also featured on CCTV's "Home Amidst Mountains and Rivers" program, and Sa Beining visited here. I specifically checked which guesthouse he stayed at 🤣, just to catch a glimpse of his celebrity!

    Chikan Old Street, located in Chikan District, Zhanjiang City, is a small street that retains some Republican-era buildings. However, its preservation is incomplete; some old buildings are gone, and others are dilapidated. I strolled along, stopping frequently to look around. One place I visited had really delicious beef offal wontons. There was also a Chikan District Museum, which was free to visit, and its exhibits were quite interesting; I spent quite a while looking at them.

    Dinglong Bay is the most suitable place to visit with your family or lovers. The scenery is pleasant and it is called a small Sanya. It has beautiful beaches and a panoramic view of the coastline. There are also water parks, hotels, villas, etc.

    Tickets are free to go from the pier, and the scenic area is free. The round trip fee is 100 yuan, and the single person fee is 5 yuan. Many locals go there by motorcycle. The scenery is average, it has just been developed, and there are few people. The food is affordable, and the barbecue chef is not good. I guess I didn’t have much experience at the beginning, so I grilled it myself and also guided the service comrades. It is worth going.
