Help! This seriously underrated seaside town is so beautiful I want to settle down here

Friends! Who knows about this! I’ve discovered a seaside town in Jiangsu, Lianyungang — a seriously underrated romantic treasure. Once you come, you’ll never want to leave! The sea breeze carries stories, the old town hides the years, and every frame is so beautiful you want to hit pause ⏸️ This painstakingly compiled guide is a must-save! 🌊 "You have to take a trip to Lianyungang for this sea" 🔹 Liandao Seaside Bathing Beach Jiangsu’s top-level seaside beach! Step on the fine white sand and watch the waves chase your feet~ Rent a small boat🚤 and drift to the center of the sea, the salty sea breeze hits your face, and in the distance, Liandao looks like a green gem set in a blue ribbon. Every photo looks like a cinematic poster! Don’t leave at sunset! The orange-red dusk spills over the sea, holding hands with your loved one while stepping in the waves, so romantic you want to scream💖 🔹 Yuntai Mountain on the Sea Don’t be fooled by the name! Climb to the top for a breathtaking double view of the Yellow Sea and the city panorama! The mountain road winds like a ribbon, stop halfway to take photos of the fishing village on the cliff, with scattered stone houses next to the deep blue sea, like stepping into a hidden corner of a Studio Ghibli animation. At the summit viewing platform, the sea breeze carries the scent of mountain and sea, the city, fishing port, and islands spread before your eyes, instantly understanding what “vast mountains and seas, life is worth it” means🌄 🏠 "The warmth and poetry hidden in the old town" 🔹 Minzhu Road Old Street A century-old stone-paved road hides the soul of Lianyungang! In the old teahouse, crack sunflower seeds while listening to traditional storytelling, flip through yellowed old photos in the old bookstore, and watch street grandmas sell sugar paintings, amber-colored sugar threads flowing in the spoon, drawing vivid dragons and phoenixes🐉 At dusk, under the dim street lamps, the aroma of fish soup noodles wafts from the time-honored noodle shop. The milky fish broth with chewy noodles warms both your stomach and your memories. 🔹 Xilian Island Fishing Village When the fishing boats return to port, this place is a living “fishing port oil painting”! The dock is piled high with catches, fishermen shout while sorting crabs, fish, and shrimp, the salty sea flavor mixed with the scent of daily life. Follow the fishermen to the seafood market to pick freshly landed goods, find a stall to cook them, steamed swimming crabs, spicy stir-fried clams… so fresh you’ll lose your eyebrows! Stay overnight in a stone house homestay in the fishing village, fall asleep to the sound of waves hitting the rocks, even your dreams taste salty🌙 🍜 "These delicacies are a must-try or it’s like you never came!" • Seafood Street: Freshly caught and cooked seafood! Highly recommend the “mixed fish potstickers,” crispy potstickers soaked in fresh fish soup, one bite and your taste buds explode, you’ll want to drink every drop of the soup! • Lianyungang Jianbing: Different from Shandong jianbing! Paper-thin crepes wrapped with kelp strips, crunchy fried dough sticks, and egg. The street grandma’s stall is the most authentic, 5 yuan fills you up! • Banpu Liangfen: Smooth mung bean jelly topped with bright red chili oil and fragrant vinegar. A bowl in summer is refreshingly cool and satisfying, a nostalgic taste locals have loved since childhood~ 🚗 "Super hassle-free itinerary planning" • Day 1: Liandao Seaside Bathing Beach (morning sea and waves) → Seafood Street (fresh lunch) → Minzhu Road Old Street (afternoon nostalgic stroll and snacks) → Xilian Island Fishing Village (evening fishing port sunset + seafood dinner) • Day 2: Yuntai Mountain on the Sea (morning hike for mountain and sea panorama) → Before leaving, enjoy a bowl of Banpu Liangfen + Lianyungang Jianbing (a happy carb-filled finale!) Lianyungang is the kind of place that “stuns at first sight and gets more addictive the longer you stay.” It’s not crowded like trendy cities but blends mountain and sea romance with everyday life. Those who come here will understand: some beauties don’t need loud promotion, just come and you’ll fall in love💙
