Back from Lianyungang, honestly don't recommend going in June-July because it's just too beautiful

Let's go see the sea in Lianyungang!🌊 This city nestled between mountains and sea is perfect for vacation! The 3-day 2-night itinerary covers both mountain and sea scenery while enjoying seafood feasts, with the bonus that all attractions are conveniently close together! 🚗 Itinerary Day1: 📍 Liandao Scenic Area Must visit Dashawan and Sumawan beaches! Dashawan has vast soft sand, while Sumawan is less crowded with prettier views. Take the sightseeing train (¥20) to save energy. Avoid seafood restaurants in the scenic area - better eat back in the city. 📍 Zaihaiyifang Park Free seaside park, perfect for sunset photos! Great for beachcombing at low tide🐚 Day2: 📍 Huaguoshan Mountain Must-see spots: Water Curtain Cave and Yunü Peak. Take cable car up (¥50 one-way) and walk down. Watch out for monkeys👜 📍 Yuwang Scenic Area Like mini-Jiuzhaigou! Cool waterfalls perfect for summer water play💦 Bring spare clothes. Day3: 📍 Haiyun Terrace Mountain Stunning mountain-meets-sea views! Best visibility in morning for panoramic city views🌤 📍 Lianyungang Old Street Preserved Republic-era architecture, great for photos. Try the famous fried dough sticks and tofu pudding. 🦀 Food Recommendations ✅ Hongming Seafood 369 (Xugou branch): Popular local seafood spot with good prices ✅ Xiaowu Liangpi Noodles: 20+ year old shop, amazing cold noodles with roujiamo ✅ Laohaibian Pancake: Must-try local snack - crispy and fragrant 💡 Practical Tips 1. Prices are high in Liandao Scenic Area - bring snacks/water 2. Huaguoshan cable car stops at 4pm - plan accordingly 3. July-August is peak season - weekdays are less crowded 4. Strong UV by the sea - don't forget sunscreen!
