Chaozhou | I'm here! A one-day tour around the ancient city with a check-in strategy

Chaozhou! The first impression is Chaozhou cuisine, Chaozhou beef balls, and Chaozhou clay pot porridge are very famous in Nanjing, and they are also my favorite foods. In addition to eating well in Chaozhou, of course, you have to play well. In Chaoshan, just by circling the ancient city, you can eat and play at the same time, which is super convenient. 🚶🏻‍♂️My 1-day itinerary: 🪔Ancient city alleys ⇒ 🕍Kaiyuan Temple ⇒ ⛩️Ancient city archway ⇒ 🌉Guangji Bridge ⇒ 🏯Thai Buddha Hall 🅿️: Navigate to Kaiyuan Temple ground parking lot, the parking fee is not high, but there are a few spaces, sometimes you need to wait, there are charging piles inside, mostly occupied by fuel vehicles. 1⃣️Ancient city alleys (all the delicious foods are gathered here) Beef balls, beef hotpot, fermented tofu chicken wings, clay pot porridge, glutinous rice pig intestines, nuo ji ji, sea stone flower, duck mother twist, turtle jelly, I have tried them all, not only delicious food but also various handicrafts, the ancient city alleys are great for eating, strolling, and taking photos 📸 2⃣️Ancient city archway Inside the Chaozhou ancient city, these stone archways are widely distributed and numerous.

The ancient archway street under the night is even more charming, with the arcade lights shining brightly, pavilions reflecting each other, giving people a feeling of traveling through time and space. 3⃣️Kaiyuan Temple 🆓 Founded in the 26th year of the Kaiyuan era of the Tang Dynasty (738 AD), originally named Lifeng Temple. After the Qing Dynasty, Kaiyuan Zhen Guo Zen Temple and Kaiyuan Temple were referred to together, commonly known as Kaiyuan Temple. It is very suitable for taking pictures and checking in, with many photo spots. 4⃣️Guangji Bridge (20💰 to cross the bridge, 🆓 to view the bridge) One of the four famous ancient bridges in China, it has the unique landscape of 'disassembling the bridge after crossing the river'. Every day from 10 am to 5 pm, the middle part of Guangji Bridge is connected by 18 boats in a line, forming a pontoon bridge for people to cross. At 5:30 pm every day, the staff will dismantle these boats and rebuild them the next morning. This process is like a 'reincarnation' of life, vividly showing the historical and cultural value of Guangji Bridge. 5⃣️Thai Buddha Hall 🆓 Part of Kaiyuan Zhen Guo Zen Temple, completely Thai-style architecture, instantly travel to Thailand, many girls wearing Dai nationality clothes take photos and check in.
