Wutian Old Street

5.4

4.8/5

8 reviews

Wutian Old Street is a historical and cultural block built along the Wenrui Tanghe River, spanning the east and west sections of theTanghe River. This area was formerly known as "Wutian Market." During the Ming and Qing dynasties, it became a distribution center for agricultural and sideline products thanks to the water transport of theTanghe River. Shops were set up along the river, and merchant ships docked at the wharves for trade. The arcades, wharves, and alleys from the 1980s are memories for many older Wenzhou residents. Today, the old street has been renovated to recreate old Wenzhou street scenes, such as banyan pavilions, Dong'ou Academy, water streets and markets, and intangible cultural heritage crafts. The architecture of the block continues the traditional style of the arcade-style residences on both banks of the Wenrui Tanghe River, with green bricks, dark tiles, and a subdued color palette. The gables use old green bricks from the sites of former Wenzhou residences, and wooden components like doors and windows were hand-carved by woodcarving masters, featuring delicate patterns of flowers, birds, fish, and insects. The internal river system divides the block into multiple island areas surrounded by waterways, with small bridges, wharves, and alleys crisscrossing. The hundreds-of-meters-longTanghe Riverscenic belt along the river is perfect for a leisurely stroll. You can also see theKuixing Pavilionon the old street, with its overhanging eaves, which carries the wishes of ancient examinees praying for success in imperial examinations, and it is quite recognizable. The old street is relatively quiet during the day, making it suitable for examining architectural details. In the evening, when the lights come on, lanterns and their reflections on the river make the area more vibrant, which is also a great time for taking photos.

Shiwei Rock is located in Hesheng Town, northeast of Yantou, and is one of the attractions not to be missed in Nanxi River. The volcanic activity of 100 million years ago left a 306-meter-high lone peak, the shape of the ship's raft, proudly overlooking the surrounding peaks, and the reddish rocks changed into different shapes at different angles. You can take a boat view, or you can walk up the boardwalk between the mountains and the mountains.

Nanji Islands-Dasha'ao Beach

5.3

4.5/5

2 reviews

Nanji Islands-Dasha'ao Beach is flanked by mountains on both sides and is the island's iconic natural beach. What makes it special is the sand itself: it is not ordinary fine quartz sand, but shell sand formed by the long-term erosion and grinding of marine shellfish remains by waves. It feels soft and delicate under bare feet, and glimmers under the sun on clear days. This sea area is known as the "Kingdom of Shells and Algae." The water is crystal clear, transitioning from shades of blue near the shore to deeper hues in the distance, and the beach is flat and open, extending far into the sea. During the day, you can sunbathe, swim, or splash in the waves here. In the tidal pools after low tide, you can often find mudskippers and small crabs hiding in the sand, making it a great place to take children to experience the fun of beachcombing; sitting on the beach in the evening to watch the sunset paint the sea orange-red is a memorable scene for many visitors to the island. From April to June each year, on clear, dark nights, you have the chance to see the "blue tears," where waves glow with a faint blue light, adding a delightful surprise to your island trip.

Taogong Cave

4.5/5

79 reviews

Taogong Cave is located in the Daluoyan Attraction, at the foot of Daluoyan Mountain. The cave is 56 meters high, 76 meters wide and 79 meters deep. It is the largest stone chamber in southern Zhejiang. "The light and dark in the cave change with the clouds. It is dark when the clouds return and bright when the clouds disperse." The cave is divided into two floors, upper and lower. There are three Guanyin Pavilions on the lower floor, and there is a lecture platform in front of the pavilion that can accommodate hundreds of people. There are nine-bay front halls, bell and drum towers, wing rooms and monk kitchens outside the cave. A 56-step stone staircase on the south side of the cave leads to the upper "roof terrace". Behind the roof terrace is the Hugong Hall, which enshrines the seated statue of Hugong the Great, and in front of it is the Wenchang Pavilion. Under the right side of the shrine of the Hugong Hall is a jar-shaped "Red Water Well", which never dries up or overflows all year round. There are two long caves on the rock wall on the south side of the cave, called Liumi Cave and Baiyu Cave. At night, the white stones on the cave wall are illuminated by lights and candles, which look like floating clouds or scales, with different shapes and colors from far and near. Water drips down the cliffs at the entrance of the cave and falls into the pool, just like "flowers scattered by a goddess". Taogong Cave is close to the mountain and faces the water. There is a huge stone in front of the cave, about 20 meters high, called "Dengxian Stone". 200 meters north of the cave, you can see three cliffs standing like a barrier, named "Three Lions Sleeping Together". There is a "Guest-welcoming Pine" on the top of the cliff. There are also scenic spots such as Liuluo Mountain, Baiyun Ridge, Longshan Cave, Chaotian Turtle, and Chishui Pavilion near Taogong Cave. Taogong Cave is praised by Taoists as "the twelfth blessed place in the world". During the Three Kingdoms period, Taoist Wang Xuanzhen practiced here; in the ninth year of Tianjian (510) of Emperor Wu of Liang in the Southern Dynasty, Tao Hongjing, known as the "Prime Minister in the Mountains", wrote the book "Zhen Gao" in seclusion here, so it is also called Zhengao Rock. The temples in the cave were first built in the seventh year of Xiantong (866) of Emperor Yizong of the Tang Dynasty, and were successively rebuilt in the Song, Ming and Qing Dynasties. There are many incense here, and the incense period is from the beginning of August to September 9th of the lunar calendar every year.

WENZHOU AMUSEMENT PARK TOURISM RESORT

5.2

5.0/5

255 reviews

The third-phase project of Wenzhou Amusement Park Resort is located south of Huanshan Road in Ouhai District, adjacent to Wenzhou Amusement Park to the west and Wenzhou Polar Ocean World to the north. With a total investment of 1 billion yuan, the project covers a planned area of 53,768 square meters. It will be developed into a comprehensive tourism destination featuring a water park, a family-themed resort hotel, and an international circus. This project will not only fill the gap for large-scale water parks in our city but also leverage the scenic views of Mount Daluo, two small hills within the construction site, and high-standard landscaping to create a tropical rainforest-style water world. The park features 19 activities, including the Giant Tornado, Wave Pool, Rapid River, Waterfall Leap, and Octopus Slide, along with an artificial waterfall where visitors can experience the thrill of rushing through the cascading waters. The international circus project stands 34 meters high with a diameter of over 70 meters, featuring tiered seating and a 7-meter-deep pool that can accommodate more than 2,500 visitors simultaneously. This venue will bring together circus performers from eleven countries worldwide, including nearly a hundred professional actors. Visitors can enjoy thrilling acrobatics, hilarious clown acts, and dreamlike equestrian performances, including the renowned life-and-death wheel show from both domestic and international artists. The family resort hotel has 5 floors with 185 rooms, including 60-square-meter small rooms and 300-square-meter large rooms. The first floor features four oversized fish tanks for mermaid performances, while the second floor offers poolside rooms and courtyard rooms, including an 800-square-meter private pool room—the first of its kind in southern Zhejiang and northern Fujian—and a 50-meter rooftop infinity pool. Floors 3 and 4 combine business accommodations, while the 5th floor features loft-style theme rooms with slides. The rooftop will also have an L-shaped "sky pool" designed to the standard 50-meter length. This will integrate with the entire entertainment complex, allowing visitors to enjoy a vacation experience without traveling far. It's worth mentioning that the overall plan for the new main gate of Wenzhou Amusement Park has been submitted to the planning bureau for approval. From the renderings, we can see the new gate's facade is designed like a castle, standing over 40 meters tall with a width of nearly 120 meters. According to reports, Wenzhou Amusement Park was built in 2005 and has witnessed the growth of a generation of Wenzhou residents over its 20-year history. Upon completion of the Phase III (Water World) project, it will become Wenzhou's largest comprehensive tourism resort with extensive land use, significant investment, complete facilities, and high standards. The new phase will integrate with Phase I (Wenzhou Amusement Park) and Phase II (Wenzhou Polar Ocean World), forming a synergistic tourism cluster. The expanded resort is projected to host over 2.5 million domestic and international visitors annually, establishing itself as a premier comprehensive tourism destination in southern Zhejiang and northern Fujian regions.

梧田老街是温州一个新晋的网红打卡点。这儿一点儿都不输五马街。整个梧田老街景区是完全免费的。里面道路纵横交错。小桥流水，古风古韵。明清时期名为吴田氏，现如今也是热闹非常。梧田老街整体风格延续温瑞塘河两侧的骑楼民居特色。青砖黛瓦，水路环绕。形成水路环绕的六大岛区。老街设置了七景，还有很多温州特色的小吃。
