Zhoushan | Dongji Island "Palace of Potala on the Sea"
Miaozihu Island is the main island of Dongji Town and also the largest one. It has complete living facilities. The homestay restaurants are built according to the island, and they are in order. Looking from the shooting location of 'See You Again', it really has the flavor of the Palace of Potala on the sea. It is also the only island with sightseeing cars. See the map of the island at the end. The sightseeing car departs from the passenger terminal and the main attractions in order of stops:
1️⃣Dongxiang Pavilion: There is a Beixi Wharf down the road which is closer to the sea, but there are only rocky cliffs here without a beach.
2️⃣Dongji Pavilion: The best choice for watching the sunrise early in the morning, the scenery here is excellent. It takes about 20 minutes to walk from the homestay.
3️⃣The shooting location of 'See You Again': The place where the house in the movie was burned down, now it's a rebuilt cafe.
4️⃣Statue of Cai Bo Gong: This statue also appeared in the movie.
5️⃣Internet-famous Lighthouse: You can get there by going down from the statue of Cai Bo Gong, people usually come to drive you away around 5:30. Take photos as early as possible.
6️⃣Attractions reachable by walking: Dongji History Museum, The Second Hometown of Soldiers, etc. There are also some cultural and creative shops for you to explore.
🏠Accommodation: The higher the location of the homestay, the better the view, and the higher the price. The air on the island is humid, the air conditioner needs to be dehumidified, and even the camera is foggy the next day
🍤Food: Mainly seafood, the taste is similar, just choose one with a good view and a reasonable price. There are many bars and barbecues at night.
🎫Sightseeing car ticket: 88RMB/person, from morning to around five in the afternoon. You can get on the bus at every stop of the loop line.
📍Drones: Unlimited, but do not approach the military base.

The treasure homestay on Dongji Island is here
Dongji Island must stay in the treasure homestay🔥Real review, quick save||❗️Pure tourist real share review~
➡The location of the homestay is at Miaozi Lake on Dongji Island~
Before going, I did a lot of homestay strategy, because I care a lot about the hygiene of the homestay, afraid of the discrepancy between pictures and reality, finally chose this one
➡The location of the homestay really surprised me!! It's very close to the pier, just a five or six minute walk!
I booked a sea view standard room with two 1.5-meter beds, no problem staying with my parents!
There is a terrace outside the door, connected to a large yard, facing the sea, and you can enjoy the sea without going out!
➡The public space of the homestay can be photographed and it's very photogenic
➡About hygiene:
The hygiene is clean and all the necessary disposable items are available
The room also has a super large screen projection, not the kind of screen
It looks particularly high-end
➡About service:

Dongfushan Island Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)
Dongfushan Island - Zhoushan
It’s said that it’s the first island in China to see the sunrise.
Firstly, it’s absolutely tiring to reach the island. 🥱We take High-speed Rail from Shanghai to Ningbo, then take bus from Ningbo to Shenjiamen, then ferry from Shenjiamen to Dongji Island, then another ferry to Dongfushan Island. It takes almost a day.😔
It’s a very natural island, except for a large number of homestays, there are few traces of commercialization, especially compared to Dongji Island. There’s no takeout service on the island. Barbecue and seafood are all over the island. And they are all cheap and delicious. But it’s not easy to find a drink store, even a supermarket. And all these snacks and drinks are expensive because it really takes some energy to send these products to the island.
There’re no high buildings, only small hills, so it’s easy to see the sunset on the balcony of the room. And also they don’t even have much streetlights at night. So when walking down the road at night, you could hear the sound of waves hitting the rocks on one side, and the big shadow of the mountains on the other side. Even not much people on the road.
It’s a beautiful place that you could touch the true nature and be quite to yourself. But you may feel a little bit boring after several days there haha.

Zhoushan, a summer retreat island in the heat of summer, Dongfushan Island
Located at the easternmost edge of Zhoushan's Dongji Islands, there is Dongfushan Island. Dongfushan Island is about 65.4 kilometers away from the nearest land, nearly a 2-hour voyage. Here, the summer is caressed by sea breezes, shrouded in mist, with stone-stacked dwellings appearing and disappearing in the fog, offering a comfortable temperature, making it a summer retreat hotspot in Zhejiang.
Attraction recommendations:
It is recommended to hike around the island, which took me about 5 hours alone.
At the pier, you can watch the sunrise over the big rocks, where you can see the earliest sunrise at the easternmost point of China, so before 5 am, many people are already positioning themselves to watch the sunrise.
Dining: You can try the local seafood noodles, small abalone soup, mussels, and other seafood. The average cost starts at 50 yuan.
Dongfushan Island is small, retaining its pristine
Ferry: You can take a boat from Zhujiajian Pier in Zhoushan to Miaozihu Pier, and from there, transfer to a small boat to Dongfushan Island. The ferry has upper, middle, and lower decks, with the lower deck not offering a sea view, but you can go up to the deck. The total cost starts at about 180 yuan, and the journey takes about 3 hours. There is only one round trip per day, so you need to stay at least one night on the island.
Accommodation: There are many homestays on the island, starting at 200 yuan. It is recommended to stay close to the pier, which is also convenient for watching the sunrise.
Tips: The sea segment from Miaozihu to Dongfushan is rough and bumpy, so be prepared with motion sickness medicine.
The island has a lot of snakes, insects, rodents, and ants, so be sure to bring mosquito repellent and the like.

China's first place to be blessed by the first light of dawn - Dongji Island.
This is the place blessed by the first ray of dawn in China - Dong.
Ji Dao Island, with the reputation of "Top 10 Most Beautiful Islands in China", let's come to the easternmost island of the mainland to see the sea together~
Recommended activities
Dongji Island consists of Miaozihu Island, Dongfushan Island, and Qingbang Island. If you don't visit other attractions around Zhoushan, a three-day itinerary is sufficient.
Dongfushan Island
It is an island on the easternmost side of Dongji Island, a must-visit beautiful island. The first ray of dawn in China is here, the earliest place for sunrise in the country. Sunrise is a must-see, arrive at the sunrise viewing platform before 5:30 in summer.
Miaozihu Island
This is the place with the most tourist attractions, including lighthouses, retro streets, and the filming location of the movie "Forever Young". There are many homestays, cafes, and small bars on the island, and you can hike around the island for 4-5 hours.
Qingbang Island
After playing at the Miaozi Lake Island, purchase tickets to go to the island where the main scenery is stone house architecture. In good weather from July to September, you can see the fluorescent sea!

Qingbang Island Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)
The completely undeveloped Qingbang Island - worth a visit
So authentic a seaside island, yet 80% of people still don't know about it!
This is Dongji Town's Qingbang Island.
Of those who have been to Dongji Island, 80% are unaware of this little island 'Qingbang Island'. Half of it is a quiet old fishing village, and the other half is the essence of island life, without too much commercial atmosphere, with cheap prices and accommodation. Since the houses are built on the island in layers, it is also known by netizens as the 'Sea Potala Palace'.
Wake up in the morning to watch the sunrise, have a good breakfast and take a walk along the seaside of the island. By noon, have a big seafood meal at the 'Seaside Flavor' restaurant, where you can have any seafood you want at a very affordable price, and the seafood is really good and fresh.
For accommodation, go to the 'Xin'an Hui' guesthouse, where each room faces the sea, with sea view rooms, clean and sanitary, enthusiastic service, and affordable prices, making it worth staying.
In the afternoon, you can have a coffee, watch the sea, and zone out for a bit.
At night, have a drink at the small bar, listen to music, and enjoy the atmosphere here.
Dongji has a rich and simple fisherman's character, as well as breathtaking scenery, almost monopolizing the real sense of sunshine, blue sea, reefs, and sea flavor. The climate is pleasant, the water is clear, and it is a rare place of purity. Here the sea changes all year round, calm surpassing Hangzhou's West Lake, flat as a plain; when angry, it rivals the Qiantang River's autumn tide, with waves crashing against the shore.
Transportation route: Zhoushan currently has no train station. To get to Zhoushan, you can first take a train to Ningbo, then take a bus from Ningbo to Zhoushan, and from Zhujiajian take a boat to the small island you want to visit.
Cuisine: The earliest saying about Dongji was: 'In Dongji, everything but humans is wild,' showing the freshness of Dongji seafood. The seafood here is fresh because it is caught from the sea and quickly becomes a delicacy on your table.
Accommodation: The unified checkout time for guesthouses on the island is 9 am in the morning.

On Qinglan Island, there is an inn called the East Pole 30 degrees north latitude.
Located in the old street (the center of Qinglan Island) not far from the pier, walk for 5 minutes, don't worry about getting lost, because the innkeeper will come to the dock to pick up every guest and take our luggage enthusiastically.
The proprietress is a post-90s girl who is more literary than the name of the inn. This beautiful and quiet young lady resigned from Ningbo and returned to her hometown. She built this warm hut in front of me with her own hands. The style of the
inn is the favorite of young people today. On the first floor is the restaurant and reception room. The rich Mediterranean style makes me feel the temperament in the hot summer. The inn aunt burned a good dish, the price of the dish was reasonable, the dishes were varied, and the three meals a day were appropriate.
Each room upstairs has a nice name: Mu He Mo Shanghua, green cut petals autumn, green loose couch, half summer to the end and so on. We lived in Muhe Mo, the room had a bunk bed, and I stayed with Mr. R just right (we rushed to sleep on the shop) only 180 yuan during the Dragon Boat Festival, other room types ranging from 200-400, can be described Super value super conversion!
The room is unified and simple, clean and tidy, bringing the warmth of home to our journey.
The inn also has a mysterious reservation project - Fluorescent Sea! If there is a fluorescent sea that night, Miss Sister will gather every resident of the inn and lead the team to the beach to enjoy the dreamy blue tears.
The mighty team, talking and laughing all the way, everyone walks through the dim small streets like a big family.
Qingdao Island is the smallest island in the development of the East Pole Island, the quietest, the most simple folk customs, and the most beautiful mystery in my mind.
Walking on the island, I seem to understand why this gentle and kind Jiangnan girl resigned and returned to this island.

The small fresh memory of Qinglan Island
From Dongfushan Island to Qinglan Island, about 20 minutes, the boat is on the island called the Potala Palace. There are not many tourists on board
, and not all of them are the places to visit the East Pole Island. Many people prefer Miaozi Lake and Dongfu Mountain. I don't know the beautiful scenery of Qinglan Island.
Although Qinglan Island is also one of the three major islands of the East Pole, it is more primitive than Dongfu Mountain.
The island is basically a local resident, and there are few hotels and inns. The tour route of
Qingdao Island is different from the loop of the other two islands, but a single-lane line from south to north. The main tourist spots are concentrated in the north and south sections of the island.
There are no obvious road signs here. Many times you need to find your own feelings, and you must pass through the door of the residents from time to time. The sand beach on the middle of the island is surrounded by ancient houses on three sides, and the Dashuwan stone house on Dongfushan Island is just like the size of the house.
This angle is taken in the past, it is still very good-looking. I feel that Qinglan Island has the feeling of Taiwans Green Island. It is very small and fresh. Dont miss it when you come to play.

Escape to the secluded island of Xiapu in China! The most successful trip following the trend!!!
Always wanted to visit Xiapu
To see this dreamlike island in China
Si Sha Archipelago, a destination I've always longed for
It's the real-life version of Hyrule from The Legend of Zelda
It's the sheer cliffs standing in the middle of the sea
It's the uninhabited island where loneliness and romance coexist
The constant sound of the waves seems to tell the story of this land's eternal passage of time
📍Si Sha Archipelago, Xiapu County, Ningde City, Fujian Province
🚃Take the high-speed train to Xiapu Station - 🚗Rent a car to Jishi Wharf/🚖Take a taxi - 🚢From Jishi Wharf to Bei Sha Island - 🛶From Bei Sha Island to Bird Island
Parking is available at the wharf for easy round trips
The trip from Jishi to Bei Shuang Island costs ¥80 one way and ¥100 for the return trip. If time allows, it's recommended to stay for a few more days! Both Dong Sha and Bei Sha Islands are beautiful
Follow the big boat for ¥70 with a 1-hour stop, or charter a boat for ¥600-¥1200 with a 4-hour stop
🚗If you're visiting Qida Village and Dongbi Village, consider this itinerary

Important tips‼️‼️
When visiting Si Sha Archipelago, don't miss the main island of Bei Sha Island
99.9% of tourists head straight for Dong Sha Island and Bird Island
🤩Tips from someone who's been there
❶Don't wait until you're on the island to find a homestay
Contact a homestay on Bei Sha Island before you go
And make sure the host can take you around the main island
Recommended are Qianyu Homestay or Yujian Homestay on Si Sha Archipelago
The owner is a local and knows many beautiful places
Very enthusiastic, and the rooms have floor-to-ceiling windows with direct sea views
A car will pick you up from the homestay once you arrive at Bei Sha Island port from Jishi Wharf
❷If you have photography needs, don't just follow the big boat to the island! Dong Sha and Bird Island only allow a one-hour stay which is very rushed
It's suggested to arrange with homestay partners or start making arrangements with partners on the scheduled boat
Go out to sea together in the afternoon! The scheduled boat costs 600-1200! It's very cost-effective to charter a boat together and you can enjoy the whole afternoon! If the weather is good, you can even chase a sunset at sea (so important‼)
❸Don't just stay for one day and leave in a hurry
Don't think that visiting Dong Sha Island and Bird Island means you've seen it all and leave the island at 8:30 the next day! Let the homestay host take you around the main island the next day
❶Visit the military fortresses and air-raid shelters left from 66.67 years ago
❷Look for cows and sheep on the island
❸Visit the especially majestic sea cliffs
❹Explore the deep sea erosion caves! You can even find sea urchins there
❺Be sure to walk along the Stone Slope, the most beautiful fishing village path
