This city is really a good place for food and shopping! You can eat more than a dozen meals in two days without any problem! Be sure to pay attention to sun protection when you go out in Shantou in summer. I have prepared a high-cost-effective two-day tour guide for you overnight, be sure to take a look before you come. **Transportation Guide** From Jieyang Chaoshan International Airport to the city, you can choose the "Shantou East Line" of the airport express, which can directly reach the city center. If you get off at Chaoshan Station or Shantou Station, it is best to choose Shantou Station, because it is only a ten-minute drive from the city. If your city does not have a direct train to Shantou Station, you can transfer to Shantou Station by high-speed rail at Chaoshan Station, which is more convenient and faster, and saves time and effort compared to taking a taxi directly from Chaoshan Station to the city. **Itinerary** Day 1: After arriving at the hotel and putting down your luggage, you can first visit the Chaoshan History Museum, then go to Mayu Island, and finally taste the food on Longyan Food Street. Day 2: Visit the Old Mother Palace Stage and Small Park, then go to Chaoren Wharf, take the Square Ferry, and finally you can visit Shantou Hostel and Zhenbang Food Street. **Recommended local food in Shantou** - Ah Xiang Rice Noodle Roll - East Market Rice Porridge - Xin Nanbei New Cantonese Cuisine - Yuyuan Fresh Pickles - Good Chicken Pot - Golden Coconut Shell (Wanxiang Store) - Daoxing Coffee - Xingyin Juice - Yijing Family Cold Pot Skewers - Chaoren Brine Creation•Weidi Rice Porridge Goose Rice Fresh Pickles Remember to check this guide before you set off, and wish you a happy time in Shantou!

At first, I really went to Chaoshan for the food. But the trip to Chaoshan in 2024 made me re-evaluate it. The festive atmosphere, the warmth of the people, and their adherence to traditional culture moved me to tears. Having been to over 200 cities, I can responsibly say that this is the city with the richest New Year flavor, without a doubt. - You say 'truly intoxicating', and I find myself in the real Shantou. Drinking authentic Chaoshan tea among the crowd in the small park. Getting swept up in the fervor of the 'Chinese War Dance' and English songs and dances. Watching the sun slowly set, turning the water into a sea of oranges. - Of course, Chaoshan is not just about Shantou. When you're in Chaoshan, you have to take a trip to Chaozhou, right? Come see the 'demolishing bridge after crossing' at Guangji Bridge. Check out the largest archway street. And have a steaming hot pot of sand pot porridge and beef hot pot. - 👉How to play❓ Chaoshan 2️⃣ days 1️⃣ night travel route: Day1 Shantou Intangible Cultural Heritage Tour Catholic Church - Cunxin Shantang - Guanyin Temple - Small Park - Houxi Village/Fenggang Village English songs and dances performances - Day2 Chaozhou Ancient City citywalk Qinglong Ancient Temple - Guangji Bridge - Guangji Tower - Archway Street - Kaiyuan Temple - Zhenhai Tower - Guangji Tower night view - 👉Where to take photos❓ 1️⃣Guanyin Temple: The busiest rooftop in the country is right here, where Chinese classical literature is carved by craftsmen, exquisitely beautiful. - 2️⃣Small Park: The buildings here have a very Hong Kong style, and you can take classic photos of the Small Park window scene from the second floor of kcoffee. - 3️⃣English songs and dances: English songs and dances are performed throughout the entire first lunar month, you can check in advance which village starts the parade! - 4️⃣Guangji Bridge: The prototype of 'demolishing bridge after crossing', part of it is connected by chained boats, which are dismantled at sunset. - 5️⃣Qinglong Ancient Temple: You can come here to draw divination sticks, which are said to be very efficacious. - 6️⃣Chaozhou Ancient City: The night view of the ancient city is beautiful, and Archway Street looks amazing when shot with a telephoto lens. - 👉How to get there❓ Chaoshan has a high-speed train station, and you can also fly directly. Chaoshan is mainly divided into Shantou, Chaozhou, and Jieyang, each with different stations. If you have a car, it would be more convenient to drive. -

Who would change their flight ticket just to come here for a meal? 1⃣️ The best spot in the small park, the second floor window of KFC. The young lady told us that we could go up without buying coffee, but with that said, we felt obliged to make a purchase! 2⃣️ The coffee shop next to the post office is simply a photo-taking paradise! 3⃣️ A one-yuan cruise, it might be the cheapest ferry ride I've had since I was born! 4⃣️ The last two live photos were taken when a passerby stopped us to capture our perspective.
