🏞️Hidden Gem of Cangnan! A poetic encounter with ink-wash Jiangnan landscapes✨
🎯Must-Visit Reasons
A scroll of mountains and seas! A lesser-known fairyland at the Fujian-Zhejiang border
📍Transport Tips
🚗Self-drive: 1.5h from Wenzhou
🚅High-speed rail: Take a taxi for 20min after arriving at Cangnan Station
1️⃣ Yucang Mountain National Forest Park
Cangnan's "Little Huangshan"! Best spot for sunrise and sea of clouds
📌Tips: Cable car operates until 16:30
2️⃣ Yuliao Golden Beach
Longest beach in East China! 1800m golden coastline
🌅Check-in spot: Sunset at the seaside suspension bridge
3️⃣ Wanyao Ancient Village
600-year-old pottery village! Primitive settlement by the waterfall
🍶Experience: Handmake pottery (¥50/person)
4️⃣ Fudewan Miner's Old Street
"China's Alum Capital"! Ride a mini-train through time

🥘Food Recommendations
• Cangnan fish balls: Springy and juicy! Lao Ma's is the most authentic
• Fanshan meat swallows: Paper-thin "intangible cultural heritage" snack
• Yanting swimming crab: Rich roe in September!
⚠️Pitfall Avoidance
• Bring a jacket for Yucang's frequent fog
• Yuliao gets overcrowded during holidays
• Wear anti-slip shoes for Wanyao's narrow mountain paths
