I havent eaten Jinzhous barbecue, so Ive never been to Jinzhou. Jinzhou barbecue method is unique, there are raw roast and cooked roast, there are more than a dozen small seasonings, and many roasts are also prepared with Chinese herbal medicine. Because of the emphasis on "squeaking, brushing, sprinkling, roasting, turning", the texture is strong, the taste is pure, the color is eye-catching, the appearance is beautiful, and people are not tired but eaten. The little chicken we eat tonight, called Xiaoguo Fengjig Barbecue, is the most famous in the local area. For the first time, the barbecue was not just a nightingale.

**Scenic Area Overview** Qingyan Temple, located in Beizhen City, Jinzhou, Liaoning Province (navigate to "Qingyan Temple Scenic Area"), is the core attraction of Yiwulü Mountain—one of Northeast China's three major Buddhist mountains. Founded during the Northern Wei Dynasty, the temple is famed for its "Crooked-Neck Guanyin" statue and houses 17 historical relics, including ancient Liao Dynasty pagodas and Guanyin Pavilion, earning it national cultural heritage status. As the largest Guanyin worship site in northern China, it blends stunning rock formations, millennium-old pines, and religious culture, praised by *China National Geography* as "Liaoxi's most beautiful fusion of sacred and natural landscapes." **Must-See Highlights** **Crooked-Neck Guanyin (Faith Meets Art)** The Liao Dynasty wooden "Crooked-Neck Guanyin" enshrined in Guanyin Pavilion is the temple’s treasure. Legend says touching its toes heals ailments. The 1.8-meter statue tilts as if gazing upon devotees. Chanting ceremonies (8:00/10:30/15:00 daily) fill the air with incense, leaving unique smoke patterns on the statue. **Liao Pagoda & Cloud-Nest Pine (Millennia-Old Dialogue)** Beside the Cloud-Nest Pine stands a 34-meter octagonal Liao brick pagoda with 40 carved celestial maidens. Climb 298 steps to witness Yiwulü Mountain’s "99 peaks like reclining oxen" vista—stunning in autumn foliage. **Sacred Well Blessing (Folk Rituals)** The 13-meter-deep "Sacred Well," said to be formed by a dragon maiden’s tears, lets visitors toss coin-tied red strings (¥10) to "lock in fortune."

Jinzhou hasn't seen a new high-end hotel opening for a long time, and finally, the New World has arrived. Pick a weekend, start from Shenyang, and come to Jinzhou for a staycation. I just got to experience the Jinzhou New World Hotel, which opened only a month ago. It takes less than 20 minutes by taxi from Jinzhou South Station to the hotel. Right next to the hotel is Jinzhou's only Wanda Plaza, so you can trust the location choices of these commercial brands. Although it has only been open for a month, there is absolutely no worry about the "formaldehyde smell" that new hotels sometimes have. Instead, as soon as you enter the lobby, you see the spiral staircase that many people take photos of. Like the New World in Shenyang, the lobby here is designed with an artistic touch by New World. The check-in front desk is behind the lobby, more like a hidden bright spot. It was my first time staying here, and since I was with my parents, they kindly upgraded our room. The north-facing room window overlooks the City Government Square and basically offers a panoramic view of Jinzhou city and the Xiaoling River. The layout of the king bed room is quite interesting, with the bed in the center and all other spaces arranged around it. In design terms, it expresses that "living well is the most important." The amenities are MALIN+GOETZ, the same brand used by Le Méridien. I like this brand because its scent is not overpowering but leaves a lasting fragrance. The bedside switches are sensor-activated; they light up automatically when your hand approaches, helping you identify the buttons. This is fantastic—who understands the pain of getting up in the middle of the night to find the light switch? Hahaha. Since it was my dad’s birthday, we had lunch at the hotel’s third-floor Chinese restaurant. It specializes in Chaozhou cuisine, so the claypot rice received unanimous praise from the whole family, haha. But it also incorporates some Northeastern flavors, like the pickled cabbage dumplings, which are my favorite. We had breakfast during off-peak hours, and there were not many diners, so the experience was very good. This was my 213th hotel stay, but it was the first time I saw so many "local specialties" at a hotel breakfast. From Liaoxi water tofu to farmhouse chive flowers, from Jinzhou dried tofu to handmade shrimp paste. Even the wontons were freshly made on-site by a handsome young man—truly thoughtful. Besides the room, I also found a self-service laundry room next to the gym. New World has dedicated a room specifically for self-service laundry. So even if you stay for two or three days, it’s no problem to wash clothes in an emergency. New hotel + good location + reasonable price + nice service basically meet the needs for traveling or a short weekend hotel stay.

Our room had a stunning ocean view, was spotless, and had everything we needed. The staff went above and beyond to make our stay special-friendly, attentive, and always smiling.

On the shores of the Bohai Sea, along the Liaoxi Corridor, the heroic city of Jinzhou hides breathtaking landscapes that transcend time! 🌊 Bijia Mountain: The "Heavenly Bridge Wonder" is unparalleled worldwide! During daily low tides, a mystical gravel path emerges from the sea, leading straight to the isolated island—like stepping into a time tunnel to a fairyland. 🏮 Jinzhou Ancient City: Step into the vibrant life of the Ming and Qing dynasties! The aroma of century-old roasted chicken and sizzling barbecue fills the night market by the ancient pagoda, blending with the lively street calls to awaken your taste buds instantly. ⛰ Mount Yiwulü: The crown jewel of Northeast China's three great mountains! Emperor Qianlong ascended it four times. In autumn, its layered forests transform into a grand oil painting, while ancient Northern Wei stone carvings and imperial altars whisper secrets of the past. 🌅 Liaoshen Campaign Memorial Hall: The colossal panoramic hall is awe-inspiring! A 360° immersive experience recreates the heroic moment when "New China's first dawn" was born, with real tanks standing as testaments to glory. 🚢 Oriental Happy Kingdom: The "Little Santorini" of Bohai Bay! Blue-and-white castles mirror the azure sea, while the water park's thrills and beach sunsets promise endless summer joy. ✨ From Bohai's waves to Yiwulü's sea of clouds, from ancient stone tools to epic war tales—every grain of sand here tells a story!

#discoverchina Highly recommend going before it becomes super popular! Seriously, this place is a hidden gem—Baolin Tower (also known as Yanhangu Temple) in Yixian, Jinzhou, is dubbed the “Hanging Temple of the Northeast.” I bet 99% of people have never even heard of it! There’s hardly any official promotion, so most visitors are locals. I was so curious why... until I climbed it myself! 💡 It’s the only cliff-hugging temple structure in Northeast China, perfectly blending the building into the mountainside. It dates back over 2,200 years to the Han Dynasty! According to the records, Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty visited 13 times and even left behind a poem titled “Eight Scenic Views of Baolin.” What to Expect: 🏯 The tower has 4 levels, and the higher you go, the narrower and steeper it gets. There’s only one narrow staircase—you’ll need to move cautiously to avoid bumping your head or slipping. If it ever gets crowded, the stairs would be totally jammed! That’s likely why it’s kept low-key—to ensure a good experience for visitors. 🧗 Inside, natural mountain caves are cleverly integrated with the architecture. You’ll see carved and worshipped Buddha statues throughout, and the paths connect horizontally and vertically—like a spiritual cave maze that’s full of wonder and ancient wisdom! #thingstodo #travel

Last week, I took my bestie to Qingyuan for the third time and discovered a hidden gem with crystal-clear water that rivals Semporna! No need for flights or visas, just CNY 200+ per person to enjoy this piece of paradise. Here's my secret guide: 🗺️Hidden Gems (Addresses marked) 📍Yingde Peach Blossom Lake Nicknamed "Little Erhai Lake of Guangdong" by locals. Navigate to "Qingquan Villa" for stunning drone-like views. In the early morning, mist drifts over the karst peaks. Rent a bamboo raft for CNY 30/hour and float on the emerald lake. It's ten times more peaceful than crowded tourist spots! 📍Bijiashan Waterfall A forest oasis just 20 minutes' drive from the city! Hike upstream along the creek to discover nine cascading waterfalls hidden behind ferns. The third pool is knee-deep, perfect for a safe and picturesque splash with the kids. 🎒Packing Light Guide 1️⃣ Clogs: The shore of Peach Blossom Lake is rocky, so regular slippers won't cut it. 2️⃣ Waterproof phone pouch: Essential for capturing slow-motion waterfall shots while hiking at Bijiashan. 3️⃣ Foldable reflector: A lifesaver for taking food photos in dimly lit cave restaurants. 4️⃣ Mosquito repellent bracelet: Protection against mosquito attacks while queuing for the Gulongxia rafting. 5️⃣ Quick-drying towel: Avoid awkwardness after rafting, as changing rooms at the scenic spot have long queues. 🚗Road Trip Itinerary Day 1: Gulongxia Rafting → Sunset photos at the "Internet Famous" river valley → Tianqiao Chicken Clay Pot ▪️ Arrive at the rafting spot before 14:00 to beat the tour groups. ▪️ The best photo spot in the valley is downstream of the "Fish Scale Dam"—less crowded and softer light. Day 2: Peach Blossom Lake sunrise → Bijiashan hike → Zhouxin Roasted Pork on the way back ▪️ The drive from Yingde city to Peach Blossom Lake is a 1-hour mountain road. New drivers beware! ⚠️Tips from Experience ▪️ Lockers at Gulongxia Rafting cost CNY 50/locker! It's best to leave valuables in your car and only bring your phone. ▪️ Book Peach Blossom Lake accommodations in advance, especially lake-view rooms on weekends. ▪️ Bijiashan closes at 17:30. Go early to capture the Tyndall effect. ▪️ Zhouxin Roasted Pork sells out by 10:00. Set an alarm if you want to try it. As the bamboo raft pushed through the morning mist on Peach Blossom Lake, as the raft plunged down the 5-meter drop, I suddenly understood why hikers call Qingyuan "Guangdong's Happy Place"—it's filled with simple joys more precious than plane tickets.✨
