【Jieyang·Hidden Gem】300-Year-Old Arcade Street, Lingnan's No.1 Waterfall, Heart of Chaoshan Culture

🌟 Jinxian Gate: The star of Jieyang's "Ancient Eight Scenes"! This Ming Dynasty tower transforms into a Tang Dynasty dreamscape at night with red lanterns and glazed tiles—a vintage photo op waiting to happen!

💦 Huangmanzhai Waterfall: Guangdong's answer to Huangguoshu! A year-round cascading "Milky Way" with 5-tiered falls—catch rainbows at Guanying Platform!

📿 Jieyang Confucian Temple: Lingnan's "Mini Forbidden City" with red walls and black tiles. Rub the Ao Tou statue for exam luck, then try the 10-yuan salted egg yolk snacks next door!

🍜 Zhongshan Road Arcades: 3km of Chaoshan street life! Morning fried dough sticks, afternoon hand-pounded beef balls, and midnight drunken seafood congee—foodie heaven!

🌿 Wanzhu Garden: Bamboo maze + waterwheel pavilions! Don't miss the canopy walkway and petting zoo—bamboo tube rice with fresh bamboo shoots is a must!

✨ Pro Tip: 2.5-hour drive from Guangzhou/Shenzhen! Stay near Jinxian Gate and start your day with "Jieyang-style" milk tea at West Lake Park!
