What are your tips for a self-driving tour of Dongshan Island?

Attraction Tour:

I have been there before according to my route. On the first day after arriving in Tongling Town, Dongshan County, I will book a hotel in advance and then go to nearby Maluan Bay Scenic Area. The scenic spot is a natural beach. The beach is quite clean probably because there are not too many people. Maluan Bay Scenic Area is free and you can take a leisurely walk or sit on the shore and enjoy the breeze.

The next day we went to two major scenic spots, Fengdong Stone Scenic Area and Dongmenyu Scenic Area. Tickets can be purchased online and cost around 55 yuan per attraction. However, it should be noted that you need to purchase tickets online 2 hours in advance before entering the scenic spot. First we went to Fengdong Stone Scenic Area and spent about half a day shopping. Naturally, the most famous attraction here is the Fengdong Stone. I have to admire the uncanny workmanship of nature. It is called the first strange stone in the world and is the iconic landscape of Dongshan Island. With Fengdongshi as the center, Tongshan Ancient City, Tayu Island, Jiuxianding in the west and Maluan Bay in the south form a scenic spot. Celebrities and laypeople of all ages have been here and left many amazing poems. Most of the scenery is within the scenic area. With the passage of time, many historical relics have disappeared, but the remaining landscape has been protected and is still dazzling and famous today. Another great place is the boardwalk by the sea, perfect for couples to go on a date, walk, relax, and take photos.

In the afternoon, take a cruise to the Dongmen Island Scenic Area, and follow the seaside route all the way to Dongming Temple. China has four famous islands - Gulangyu Island in Xiamen, Jiangxin Island in Wenzhou, Lanyu Island in Taiwan and Dongmen Island in Zhangzhou. Dongmen Island is named after the sea outside the east gate of Tongshan Island on Dongshan Island. There is a Wenfeng Pagoda on the island, so it is also called Tayu Island. This is an island that has not yet been fully commercialized. It's relatively original and worth a look.

You can go to Sufeng Mountain on the third day. The Sufeng Mountain Road around the island is definitely a surprise on Dongshan Island. it it it's very beautiful. It is very pleasant to drive or rent a small electric car between the mountains and the sea. However, it’s quite far from Tongling, so you must have suitable transportation to get there. The most famous one is the Sufeng Mountain Highway around the island, with its blue sea and blue sky. It is also a scenic spot among Internet celebrities. It is very suitable for photography enthusiasts and a refreshing place for literature and art.
