Chaozhou Ancient City has a history of over a thousand years. The buildings in the ancient city are mostly in Minnan and Chaoshan styles, with curved roofs, exquisite carvings, and vibrant colors, showcasing the local craftsmanship and cultural characteristics. The ancient city has its own charm both day and night.

Along Paifang Street, you can find intangible cultural heritage items such as ceramics, Chao embroidery, hand-pulled teapots, and Kung Fu tea.

(Images 5-6) Guangji Bridge, also known as Xiangzi Bridge, is one of Chaozhou's landmarks and was listed as a national key cultural relic protection unit in 1988. Guangji Bridge consists of two stone beam bridges on the east and west sides and a floating bridge in the middle. There are 24 bridge pavilions on the stone beam bridges near the banks, each with its own unique style. The middle section of the bridge is a floating bridge connected by 18 boats, about 97 meters long, fixed with iron chains. It is usually used by citizens for walking. In case of floods or large ships needing to pass, the iron chains can be untied, making it very flexible. It was praised by the famous bridge expert Mao Yisheng as the world's earliest open-close bridge. The night light show on Guangji Bridge is officially named 'Light of Phoenix City' and is held every night.

If you have 2 days and 2 nights, you can consider visiting Chaozhou. Here is my travel guide to Chaozhou. 🎒 🚌🚶‍♂️[Day 1] 🌳Morning: After arriving at Chaoshan Airport by plane, I originally planned to take the airport bus to Chaozhou, but I didn't expect to wait for more than an hour for the bus. So I checked the ride-hailing service and found that it was more cost-effective to take a ride-hailing car. I took a ride-hailing car 🚗 directly to the homestay I booked. My homestay: Xihuanli Meisu 🍽️Noon and afternoon: I left the homestay at around 12:00 and went to Xima Road Food Street. There are more authentic and cheaper foods than Paifang Street, and it is not as commercialized as Paifang Street. I tasted Chaozhou's special foods. I ate various snacks and foods from noon to afternoon. I was very happy. There are some tricycles 🛺 near Paifang Street that can take you to various nearby scenic spots (8 scenic spots, I think) and provide explanations. Remember to bargain. I think it is quite cost-effective. 🏮Evening: I had Guantang beef hot pot on Paifang Street. It was good, and there was a group purchase. I heard that there was a Yingge dance in the evening. I felt so lucky to see it on my first day. Then I strolled around Paifang Street. 🌟 🏡[Day 2] 🌄Morning: I went to Hanwengong Temple and then visited Kaiyuan Temple. Kaiyuan Temple is really suitable for taking photos. 📷 Even ordinary clothes look good in photos! 🥢Noon: I went to a residential building near the homestay to eat something casually, and it was even more delicious than the food recommended online. 😋 🚶‍♀️Afternoon: I went to West Lake Park. 🌆Evening: I enjoyed the night view 🌃 on the bank of the Han River and went back to rest early, preparing to go to Nan'ao Island early the next morning. The charm of Chaozhou lies not only in its history and culture but also in its life. I hope this guide will help you plan an unforgettable trip to Chaozhou! 🎉🛏️
