A Fantastic 2-Day Weekend Getaway to Jieyang: You Won't Want to Leave!

Hey friends, still wondering where to go this weekend? Jieyang is the perfect place for a spontaneous trip! In just two days, you can immerse yourself in the charm of Chaoshan. Follow my lead and let's go!👇

Exploring Ancient Charm

As soon as I got off, I headed straight to Jinxian Gate. This Ming Dynasty city gate exudes a sense of history. The brackets and upturned eaves bear the marks of time.👏 Standing on the gate tower, I felt like I had traveled back in time.

Next, I visited the Jieyang Xuegong (Confucian Academy). As the largest Confucian temple in Guangdong, the solemn atmosphere of the Lingxing Gate and Dacheng Hall made me quiet down. The air was filled with the rich essence of Confucian culture. Taking photos here is amazing!📸 Every corner is a perfect backdrop for a retro-style photo.

The Rongcheng Old Street at night has a unique charm. The arcade buildings glow under the lights, emitting a captivating allure. As night falls and the lights begin to twinkle, every step feels like walking into a movie scene.🎞 When you're tired of strolling, the street food stalls are a foodie's paradise. Grab a bowl of Guo Zhi, soft and chewy rice cakes coated in rich gravy, and add your favorite toppings. Every bite is pure bliss!😋

Nature and Folklore in Harmony

On the second morning, I immersed myself in the beauty of Wanzhu Garden. The lush greenery and shimmering lake create a tranquil oasis. Strolling along the lakeside, with a gentle breeze caressing my face, all my worries melted away.😌 If you're looking for some excitement, the amusement park facilities will bring out your inner child!🥳

In the afternoon, I visited the Jieyang Chenghuang Temple, a true art sanctuary. The exquisite wood carvings, stone carvings, and porcelain inlay showcase the unique charm of traditional Chaoshan architecture. The craftsmanship is simply breathtaking!👍

This trip to Jieyang was filled with fun and delicious food. Every second was a joy! Have you ever been to Jieyang? Share your experiences in the comments below!
