Walking in Zhanjiang | 36 hours in Zhanjiang

I remember it was mentioned in the middle school textbook that Leizhou Peninsula is the southernmost peninsula in mainland China, but Xuwen was not mentioned.

Xuwen, just like its name, Xu Rufeng, is rarely heard of. It is a small county under Zhanjiang City, located at the southern end of Leizhou Peninsula. In Jiaowei Township, the southernmost part of Xuwen County, there is an Antarctic Village in mainland China. This is the "corner" of the mainland and the "tail" of China. It is also the place that every man yearns for, because here, he can be the most "southern" person in mainland China.

There are two magical seas in Xuwen.

One of the seas is located in Antarctic Village, which is amazing about water. The looming sandbar here has become the dividing line between the Qiongzhou Strait and the Beibu Gulf. One side is blue and the other side is gray. The tides come from different directions and occasionally there will be "ten" waves, which is like a high praise from God. !

On the other side of the sea, there is no water. On the rolling hills, the pineapple fields are as vast as the sea. Yellow pineapple fruits, green pineapple trees, red soil, blue sky and white clouds are scattered in the fields in the distance. The villages and windmills embellish the fairy tale-like picture, forming a "sea of ​​pineapples" on land. A gust of wind blew in my face, and it was actually mixed with the scent of pineapple. The pineapples here are only sold for 2 yuan each, and the pineapples are sold for 5 yuan each. It is really full of happiness.

The taste of happiness still exists in Chikan Old Street in Zhanjiang.

High-rise buildings form the urban skeleton of Zhanjiang, while the old streets and alleys are like the capillaries of the city, spreading the smoke of life to every corner of the city.

The old street is a bit shabby but not dilapidated, and it is secretive but not mysterious. Electric wires in the open air and water meters on the wall seem to connect the joys and sorrows of every family. After all, the old-style store did not wait for its renovation and upgrade. Sometimes, moving forward is a necessity, but staying is a choice. As long as the products are practical, the store does not need to be fashionable!

TIPS:

1. There is a one-day tour group in Zhanjiang City, starting from Zhanjiang, and visiting Antarctic Village and Pineapple Sea in one day, priced at 238 yuan per person. But you have to report in pairs.

2. Shumi’s self-driving route is Zhanjiang City-Antarctic Village-Pineapple Sea-Zhanjiang City, the total distance is about 340 kilometers. From Zhanjiang to Antarctic Village, it is recommended to take the highway to avoid the large group of people. Return to the national highway and experience the rural pastoral style of Pineapple Sea in depth. The highway fee is 52 yuan and the gas fee is 150 yuan.

3. Chikan District is not suitable for driving. It is recommended to choose shared electric vehicles for travel. You can use it by scanning the WeChat code. No deposit is required. It costs 2 yuan/15 minutes.

4. There are many delicacies in Zhanjiang, including various kinds of noodles, rice rolls, and sugar water, but Shumao thinks the most worth tasting is the street roasted oysters! 1 yuan each, cheap and good quality!
