We've set off on our next China Road Trip, this time driving along China's Scenic East Coast. A must do in China in summer is an East Coast Road Trip (or weekend away if you're short on time). In this episode we are starting in Taizhou in Zhejiang Province, and driving our way up along the stunning ocean roads, passing colorful and vibrant fishing towns and coastal villages along the way. Drivable from Shanghai in just a few hours, or a couple of hours on the high speed train, Taizhou is a great city to reconnect with the ocean.
We started the trip at China's Highest Waterfall, continued on to find one of China's oldest brick pagodas, and almost got stuck on the rural back roads.
