A broke college student's guide to traveling in Shunde. This detailed guide will help you spend only CNY 480 for 3 days and 2 nights! ✅
🚉 Transportation Guide:
Departing from Guangzhou, a 15-minute high-speed train 🚝 will take you to Shunde. The round-trip train 🚗 fare is CNY 60. In Shunde, you can mainly get around by bus 🚌 and shared bicycle. The total cost for 3 days is CNY 20.
🏨 Hotel Environment:
I chose a youth hostel near Qinghui Garden, which is convenient for getting around. The accommodation 🏨 fee for two nights is CNY 120. It is clean and tidy, and you can also meet new friends.
🍲 Food Recommendations:
Shunde cuisine is really plentiful and cheap! Double-layer milk custard, fish skin, Chencun noodles, claypot rice... After eating for 3 days, the average cost is CNY 100 per day. You'll be stuffed!
