🏮 Two Cities’ Best, All in One Go One trip, deeply experiencing the two core areas of Chaoshan: Route 1 explores the “living” ancient city of Chaozhou, taking in a thousand years of cultural heritage; Route 2 enjoys the “Oriental Hawaii” Nan’ao Island, fully experiencing the wonders of mountains and seas. A perfect combination of cultural heritage and natural scenery.

🎭 Immersive Intangible Cultural Heritage Feast The itinerary includes the optional “Great Tide Returns” performance, a stage play that combines more than ten intangible cultural heritage items with holographic technology. The red-headed boat “sails” into the audience and other shocking scenes, bringing an immersive and in-depth Chaoshan cultural experience.

🎯 Exclusive Itinerary, Defined by You The two major essences of the Chaoshan trip—ancient city culture and island scenery—are divided into two independent routes for you to choose from. You can freely decide whether to immerse yourself in the thousand-year cultural context of Chaozhou or plunge into the blue sea and sky of Nan’ao according to your interests, time, or weather, easily creating your own exclusive one-day trip.
