Fall in love with Pingtan in three days and two nights

Day 2

After breakfast, you can go to cultural creative workshops in Beigang village to do some handcrafts or colored drawing. If you are travelling with your children, you can even spend the whole afternoon in the workshops making souvenirs.

Then you can pay a visit to East China Sea Wonderland, whose best attraction is the Fairy Well. The well is about 50 meters in diameter and over 40 meters in depth. At the bottom of the well, there are two holes connecting it to the sea outside. At high tide, water runs into the well like two dragons jumping through the white waves. You can even hear roars from the well, which echo to the clouds.
