🌟 Maoming: A Sweet Journey to Lingnan's Longan Homeland
In midsummer Maoming, the air carries the unique fragrance of longans. This coastal city in western Guangdong not only boasts centuries of longan cultivation history but also hides delightful gourmet experiences and leisurely getaway surprises.
🌿 **Longan Picking Paradise**
As China's largest longan production base, Maoming is especially famous for its "Chuliang Longans". Wander through orchards where amber fruit clusters bend the branches—peel one open to reveal translucent, juicy flesh that's sweet without cloying. Head to Dianbai District's longan farms for hands-on picking fun far superior to market-bought fruit!
🏨 **Recommended Stay: Victoria International Hotel**
Located on Xinhu 2nd Road in Dianbai, this hotel combines convenience with comfort. Renowned for refined design and thoughtful service, its spacious rooms (some with city views) are perfect post-adventure sanctuaries. Recharge in the bathtub for tomorrow's explorations.
🍴 **Local Flavors Nearby**
1️⃣ **Dianbai White-Cut Chicken**
Maoming's pride! Tender meat with springy skin, dipped in special ginger-scallion sauce—an unforgettable bite. Try decades-old "Dianbai Zhuangji" just 10 minutes from the hotel.
2️⃣ **Shalang Rice Noodles**
Steamed from pure rice batter, these translucent yet resilient noodles with secret sauce and crushed peanuts are locals' breakfast staple. "Shalang Lao'er Noodle Shop" is many locals' beloved institution.
3️⃣ **Seafood Feast**
Being coastal, Maoming's seafood is unmissable. At Dianbai Port's stalls, simply steamed or wok-fried fresh catches create lasting culinary memories.
✨ From orchard to table, Maoming's sweetness and freshness deserve savoring. Slow down to embrace Lingnan's unhurried rhythm—here, you'll discover travel at its most beautiful.
