TAIZHOU, China, Aug. 4, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- When planning a trip to China, people must have a lot of imagination and expectations for the colorful experiences that this ancient country with vast territory and abundant resources can offer:

They might want to visit the scenic mountains and rivers and feel the poetic vibe depicted in traditional Chinese ink paintings;

They might want to trace the origins of traditional Chinese culture and learn more about the oriental philosophy that values harmony while cherishing diversity;

Or They might want to go on a gourmet tour of China, eating all the best local delicacies along the way.

The advice is 'Come to Taizhou!' This city, located in east China's Zhejiang Province, can almost single-handedly fulfill the bucket list of global travelers for a satisfying trip to China.

Taizhou has both coastal and mountainous regions. It's home to three national 5A-level tourist attractions, namely Tiantai Mountain, Shenxianju scenic area and Taizhou's ancient city, 17 national 4A-level tourist attractions, one world geological park, three national wetland parks and four national scenic spots. Besides, it has a beautiful coastline of 726 kilometers connecting three beautiful bays, which offers diverse impressive scenery, according to Global Communication Center of Hehe Culture. 

This is a city full of oriental romance.

For one thing, Taizhou's name is closely related to China's long-standing and sophisticated star culture. In ancient China, people divided the corresponding areas on the ground according to the positions of the stars in the sky, and the place where Taizhou is located corresponds to Tai Star in the traditional Chinese 28 stars, hence its name.

For another, Tiantai Mountain, located in north Taizhou, is an important cradle of Chinese harmony culture as well as the birthplace of Tiantai sect of Buddhism and southern sect of Taoism in China. 

Three different philosophical schools of Confucianism, Taoism and Buddhism have learned from each other here since ancient times, forming a unique cultural harmonious symbiosis, which is still evident today in the echoing bells of Buddhism and Taoism temples in the mountain.
