After retirement, I want to find a cheap coastal town for the elderly, I recommend Dongxing City in Guangxi.
This is a quiet pension town, with both mountains and seas, warm in winter and cool in summer, born for the migratory bird crowd. Now the heat is not high, the price is at a low level, whether it is self-occupied or investment is very cost-effective.
Located in the southwestern part of the mainland coastline, just across the river from Mong Cai in Vietnam, Dong Hin is a remote border town. It is a county-level city under the jurisdiction of Fangchenggang, Fangchenggang is a relatively hot pension city in recent years, and Dongxing is a relatively hot pension city in Fangchenggang.
Dongxing City is located south of the Tropic of Cancer, with Beihai and Zhanjiang at the same latitude, belongs to the South Asian tropical monsoon climate zone, the climate is mild and humid throughout the year. Winter in Dongxing City can be compared with beihai, and the coldest January, with an average temperature of between 13 °C and 20 °C, is the highest temperature in Fangchenggang City.
You can check the real-time weather in Dongxing City these days, even if it rains, the maximum temperature is 22 °C, and the cold at night is also 11 °C and 12 °C. This body temperature can be much more comfortable than Kunming, if the winter in Kunming is spring, then the winter in Dongxing is early summer.
Dongxing's summer is not so hot, the average daily temperature is between 26 °C and 33 °C, because it is close to the sea, the climate is relatively humid, and the breeze is continuous, so it does not feel hot.
Strolling through the streets of Dongxing City, you will see many white-haired but energetic elderly people, who chat with each other while exercising, as if they have forgotten their age. This is because Dongxing is the home of China's longevity, with excellent water quality and good soil, so that people here have a long lifespan.
Longevity culture coupled with a comfortable climate, attracted a lot of outsiders to come to the pension, especially the northern people, in the pension apartment will hear a lot of northeast accents, some of them are moved from the North Sea.
Foreigners who go to Dongxing for the elderly will generally choose two places: Dongxing City and Wanwei Jintan.
Choose the majority of long-term settlement in the urban area, Dongxing house prices are not expensive, the current new real estate is about 5,000 yuan, which is still a better location, and the worse location will be cheaper. Dongxing is a small county town, with an area of only 590 square kilometers and a population of 210,000, where life will not feel crowded, and an electric car can run all over the city.
Those who want to stay for a short time or spend the winter can choose Wanwei Golden Beach, which has a large number of homestays and inns, bringing together tourists from all over the country. Wanwei Golden Beach is a better bay than Beihai Silver Beach, the beach is 15 kilometers long, the sand is golden and delicate, and the sea is calm and blue.
The homestay around the golden beach is not expensive, the big bed room can be taken down for 800-1000 yuan a month, it is very close to the seaside, every day to relax, run, the day is very comfortable. Different from the urban area, in addition to the northerners, there are many Chengdu and Chongqing people who go to Wanjinjintan for the elderly, and people in the southwest region like to spend the winter here.
As a small border town, Dongxing City brings together Southeast Asian cultures, across a river you can see Vietnamese villages, and Vietnamese or Thai goods can be seen everywhere in the mall.
The disadvantages of Dongxing are also obvious, that is, the urban construction is relatively poor, not beyond the scope of the county, the streets are full of motorcycles, medical resources are not much, if you see a doctor, you need to go to Fangchenggang City, drive for about 1 hour.
Compared with other cities in Guangxi, Dongxing City's Huinantian is relatively weak, which is a good news for northerners who have suffered a lot of Huinantian, only in the spring there is a brief damp phenomenon, generally with air conditioning or dehumidifiers can be solved.
The food is "the world's first porridge", made with a variety of seafood ingredients, nutritious, delicious, there are Vietnamese yogurt and fruit on the street, the price is very cheap. In the summer, the local custom is to eat fruit cold powder, add mango, watermelon, pineapple, the taste is refreshing.
Do you like this Dongxing? Would you be here for a retirement or vacation?
