  1. 5.0 Lovers Isle (5 reviews)
    - What a treat!
    Wednesday: 12:00 AM - 11:59 PM Islands
    Lovers Isle image
    We ended up going here by accident seeing as the rest of Zhoushan was over-run by Chinese tourists. Lover's Isle or Valentine's island was the highlight of our trip. There are stunning views of the bay, beautiful paths, scenic views, picnic areas and little surprise romantic locations around every corner. Beware of all the mosquitoes, though. Wear long pants or take repellent with you. The entrance fee for the island is about 50 Yuan but it is worth it. You can make it a fun calm hike with your friends and family or a romantic stroll with your loved-one on the forest path surrounded by angel statues and underneath the intertwining trees. A definite MUST! See more..

  4. 4.5 Dongji Island (48 reviews)
    - Truly magical
    Wednesday: 12:00 AM - 11:59 PM Islands
    Dongji Island image
    I have lived in China for two years and this may be my favorite of all the places I've visited. Stone houses on steep hills with winding stairways; cats watching baskets of fish drying; retired fishermen watching their sons and grandsons returning from the fishing grounds in the afternoon; truly fantastic seafood - you can dine on the quay; one of the coolest bars (at night) and coffee shops (morning) is the Rock Jetty Bar - you can have a latte "at the ends of the earth"; and do get up at 4:30am to make the trek to the Sunrise Pavilion - first place sun rises in China. -- it is worth the walk through the dark streets with only fishermen mending their nets out and about. And don't miss the wonderful art created by the fishermen's wives -- there is a studio where you can watch them paint. See more..

  8. 4.5 Guanyin Mountain of Zhoushan (8 reviews)
    - Great visit
    Mountains
    Guanyin Mountain of Zhoushan image
    From Shanghai there's actually a marine express that can reach Putuoshan within 2,5 hours, but at the time we went was not possible due to the big winds so we need to travel via Ningbo. A long drive but worth a drive as we were passing the Hangzhou bay bridge which is the longest bridge in the world. Once we reached Ningbo, we take a cruise at about 10-15 minutes cruise, outside cars/buses are not allowed in Putushan, you need to use the island's shuttle service to move around, so be sure you don't leave your belongings behind as you won't be taking that minibus again on the way back. There are lots of temples here despite of the great symbol of Guan Yin statue (bu li kai de Guan Yin). The scenery is very beautiful, by far there's a small islands shaping the face and the body of Guan Yin.....very beautiful. See more..

    Cobble Bay image
    东边这条路据说是朱家尖最美公路,沿着公路下去,吹着海风。路过小路,还能下去到海边看看,这边海边没有沙滩,都是黑色的石头。再往下走,就是小乌石塘不要门票,停车也不收费,逛的人也挺多的。还是不错的,就是小心石头堆里的虫子,挺多的。 See more..

    Nansha Beach image
    We were there just before the season start so paid only around 30 rmb each, definitely won't come there in peak season - too expansive and possibly crowded. Apart from that a nice area, quiet, good for a short gateway from Shanghai for example. There are all facilities there like toilet, shower and some snacks stalls and great Muslim bbq (you gotta eat your fingers off). See more..

    Lovely open beach for a full family day. Interesting and beautiful sand sculptures that the kids would love. Each year hold a different theme to the sculptures. During my visit I seen the older sculptures (Fairytales) in the gardens, and the build up to the Beijing Olympics were on the main beach area. There are also lovely water bicycles you can take out on the ocean. If you prefer relaxing, you can grab a book and relax on the soft sandy shores. See more..

    第一次开上舟山跨海大桥的时候还真是有点吃惊。因为刚从杭州跨海大桥下来没多久,以为那是唯一的那么长的跨海大桥了,结果没想到到了舟山又来了一座那么有气势的大桥。浙江人民真会造桥啊。听说以后还要通火车了。厉害。。。。。。 See more..
  24. 4.0 Zhujiajian Daqingshan National Park (5 reviews)
    - 自驾游推荐
    National Parks
    Zhujiajian Daqingshan National Park image
    朱家尖最推荐的自驾游路线。门票一人100。全程单向一车道,请注意不可逆行。约6公里貌美山路。沿途超多大大小小的观景平台,时间充裕建议每个都停留片刻,因为每个角度都不同景色。除周末节假日还有自行车道可供选择骑行,不过上下坡众多,建议体力充沛者选择。沿途洗手间足够干净。台风纪念碑处的无敌海景洗手间尤其推荐(见最后一张)
    此处更推荐出行时遇到国定假日,最怕观光客众多之处之人选择。

    - 自然に乗っかったのならすごい。
    Wednesday: 12:00 AM - 11:59 PM
    Pantuo Stone image
    地面から顔を出している巨大な岩の上に、大きな5t以上ありそうな岩が乗っている観光名所です。
    上の岩にありがたい言葉が掘ってある様でした。
    自然にああなったのなら、結構すごいかもしれません。
    しかしクレーン車が入れる様なエリアではなかったので、本当に自然にああなったのかも知れません。
