3 Days & 2 Nights Immersive Guide to Pingtan North Route | Stay in a Windmill Seaview B&B, Encounter Blue Tears & Tangerine Skies

| Stay in a Windmill Seaview B&B, Encounter Blue Tears & Tangerine Skies. As an island enthusiast, I was completely captivated by Pingtan's North Route this summer! The winding coastal roads, solitary black boulder beaches, spinning white windmills, and tangerine-hued seas at sunset... Even luckier, I stayed at a hidden gem of a B&B that made me want to settle down permanently—Junhai Yunshuijian Windmill Seaview Resort Villa! This firsthand guide + B&B recommendation will keep you on track. **North Route Highlights: A Romantic Loop Without Retracing Steps** **Day 1: Fairy Tale Start → Black Stone Wonderland → Windmill Sunset** - **Beigang Cultural Village (9:00 AM)**: A stone-built village nestled between mountains and sea, featured in *Where Are We Going, Dad?*, lined with artsy shops (slightly commercialized; 30 mins for photos is enough). - **Most Scenic Island Road (10:30 AM)**: The stretch from Beigang to Changjiang'ao! Red walkways + azure sea + giant windmills—every frame is cinematic. Rent an e-bike to stop for photos anytime. 🌟 **Highlight**: - **Jingsha Black Stone Beach (2:00 PM)**: Pingtan's "Little Iceland" lives up to its name! At low tide, explore the dark boulder caves for moody shots (wear grippy shoes—rocks are sharp! Check tide times in advance). - **Changjiang'ao Sunset (5:30 PM)**: A must-see‼ Windmills dot the coastline as the sea turns tangerine at dusk. Navigate to Changjiang'ao Beach. **Day 2: S-Curve Fairy Tale → Forest Windmills → Glass Walkway** - **Fairy-Tale S-Curve (Guocai Village) (9:00 AM)**: Navigate to 📍"Yutang Branch Road"—red-roofed church, windmills, and bay in one frame! Telephoto lenses capture Studio Ghibli vibes. - **Windmill Forest Highway (11:00 AM)**: Giant windmills loom dramatically at the road's end—portrait mode highlights the "human vs. nature" contrast. - **North Bay Ecological Corridor (3:00 PM)**: The trip's pinnacle! F2's glass walkway juts over the sea, F3 overlooks windmill villages, F5 gazes at Peace Village's colorful boulders. Sunset here is breathtaking. - **Hidden Gem → Blue Tears Chase (Night)**: Changjiang'ao and North Bay are hotspots for bioluminescent waves—magical blue glow after dark. **Day 3: Peace Village (9:00 AM)**: Navigate to "Peace Village Restroom." The road to the sea mimics Las Vegas vibes, with colorful rocks along the shore—untouched and crowd-free. Return. **B&B of the Gods: Junhai Yunshuijian, Living in Windmill-Sea Poetry** The biggest surprise was stumbling upon Junhai Yunshuijian Windmill Seaview Resort Villa! Perched on Danshui Village's hillside facing Changjiang'ao's windmills, it’s the North Route’s prime spot! ✅ **Perfect Seaview Views** Floor-to-ceiling windows frame windmill-dotted seas. I stayed in the "Ocean World · Terrace Seaview Room"—private terrace for tea and stargazing, with Jingsha Black Beach below. ✅ **Detail-Obsessed Amenities** Smart toilet, voice-controlled curtains, 100-inch projector! Common areas shine: seaview kitchen for DIY seafood, lawn for pups (super sweet "Xiao Bai"), family theater for rainy days. Hygiene rivals 5-star hotels—even shower glass is spotless. 📍 **Location**: No. 1 Changpingding, Danshui Village (between Jingsha & Changjiang'ao). Pingtan’s North Route blends wild poetry (windmills + waves) with warm local charm. If you’re answering the call of mountains and sea, save a night for Junhai Yunshuijian—waking to windmills and sleeping to tides is the ultimate island romance ✨. 📍 **Navigate to**: Junhai Yunshuijian Windmill Seaview Resort Villa (Changjiang'ao Jingsha Branch). **[Bonus Tip]** The B&B’s seaside swing faces the windmill sea—free "viral swing photos" without queuing or paying ¥10 at Danshui Village!
