2025 Putian Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in June)

🌟 Xitianwei Market Once you arrive in Putian, head straight to Xitianwei Market for a taste of local life! The nearby Dongxing Market is a foodie's paradise, with delicious dishes like Yanjing Jian Guo and A Lian Jian Bao. One bite and you'll be in heaven! 😋🥟 🏛️ Putian Museum Open 9:00 am–4:30 pm (closed on Mondays). The Folk Customs Hall is a must-see, offering a fascinating glimpse into Putian's history and culture. 🏺📚 🌳 Shouxi Park Located next to the museum, this park is a peaceful oasis with fresh air and few visitors. You can even go boating and enjoy some leisure time. 🚣‍♂️🍃 🕊️ Dongshan Bao'en Temple & Mazu Palace These lesser-known attractions are quiet and free to enter, offering a moment of peace and tranquility. 🧘‍♀️🙏 🌆 Yuanmiao Temple Sanqing Hall Open 8:00 am–12:00 pm and 3:00 pm–6:00 pm. Experience the profound depth of Taoist culture. 🏯✨ 🌸 Meifeng Guangxiao Temple Open 8:30 am–5:00 pm. Visit during plum blossom season for a stunning display of natural beauty! 🌼👀 🗽️ Nanshan Guanghua Temple Open 6:00 am–6:00 pm. Free entry. Don't miss the Shakyamuni Pagoda! 📸🕉️ 🏰 Guqiao Gate Known as the "Little Tiananmen of Putian," this landmark ancient building is a must-see. Visit the second floor and explore the nearby pedestrian street for shopping and sightseeing! 🛍️🏰 🏙️ Xinghua Mansion Cultural Street Similar to Fuzhou's Sanfang Qixiang, this ancient street is filled with delicious snacks and stunning night views. There are even performances during the first lunar month! 🎆🍢 🍽️ Food Recommendations: 1️⃣ Firewood Rice - Gongchen Subdistrict, Licheng District, Putian, Fujian Salty rice is only available at noon, and the delicious soup is only available in the evening, so we recommend visiting at noon. The flavors are amazing! 🍚🔥 2️⃣ Longqiao Wonton - No. 70, Jianshe Road, Fenghuangshan Subdistrict, Chengxiang District, Putian, Fujian We didn't try the signature pig liver, but the other offal dishes were authentic and worth a try! 🐷🍲 3️⃣ Achang Soy Milk Stir Fry - No. 78–92, Jianshe Road, Chengxiang District, Putian, Fujian Located next to Longqiao Wonton, this place is always packed! The soy milk is normal, the Jian Guo is a bit oily, but the Yanpi Wonton Soup is delicious, with a flavor similar to lean meat soup. 🌱🍳 This trip to Putian was truly rewarding!

1. Hong Kong Disneyland Another destination that you must not miss when you visit Hong Kong is here. I recommend going early in the morning so that you have plenty of time to take beautiful photos. LOL This is also my first time there. I waited to buy tickets to enter the park and play some thrilling rides. LOL So much fun! After walking around for a while, I got tired and hungry, so I headed straight to the food court. 2. Graham Street Go to Graham Street, which is a cute street art. 3. Hong Kong Cultural Centre Take the train and get off at Tsim Sha Tsui Station, then walk there. It takes less than 10 minutes to get there. I must say that it is very beautiful. Every angle is great for taking photos. Especially those who love portraits, they will love it even more. If you are around here until the evening, there will be a fireworks show in this area. Let me tell you in advance. Many people come to watch. You can reserve a seat since the evening. 4. Chiu Fat Restaurant If you want to try Hong Kong-style congee, you have to stop by this restaurant. It is located at Tsim Sha Tsui Station. The restaurant has a sign in Thai and the menu is also in Thai. The taste is very good. It is very smooth. If you come at noon, you might have to wait for a table. Opens from 08:00 – 23:00 5. Coffee Obsession A cute cafe. The coffee is delicious. The owner is also cute. When he saw us taking pictures, he helped move the stuff that was blocking the front of the shop. I love it. The shop is located on the North Point side. Opens from 07:30 – 18:00 6. Ah-Yee Rice Noodle Roll This is another breakfast shop on the North Point side. There was a long queue. I went very early and still had to wait. There are about 3-4 tables on the side of the shop. It feels like a morning dumpling shop. But there are a lot of menus to choose from. Opens from 07:00 – 19:00 7. .Choi Hung Estate A rainbow basketball court where everyone has to come to take pictures. Oh, I have to say that it is quite far. It is far from Tsim Sha Tsui. Get off at Choi Hung Station Exit C3, then walk for about 15 minutes. When I arrived at the building, I still couldn't find the basketball court. LOL What the heck? I recommend asking for directions from people around there. When I arrived, there were a lot of people. I had to wait in line to take pictures. I went in the afternoon, so there weren't many people. But the sun was really strong. 8. Lan Fong Yuen This is a really delicious lemon tea shop. I give it to this one. I've been there twice and I never get bored. I finished standing and wanted to order more. LOL This shop is at Central Station. There was a long queue, but it wasn't too long. I really want you to come and try it. It's so refreshing. Opens from 07:30 - 18:00. 9. Bakehouse This branch doesn't have many people. The queue isn't long. If you want to try the super popular Hong Kong egg tart, I recommend this branch. You will definitely get to eat it quickly. Get off at Central Station. Open from 08:00 – 21:00 10. Barista Coffee Company This cafe is also at Central Station. It is right across from Bakehouse. The coffee tastes good. There are not many people. There are tables to rest your legs during the day. Hehe Open from 08:00 – 18:00 11. Yick Flat Building This is a building where Hong Kong residents live. But it is also the location for filming the movie Transformers. So it is a popular check-in point that everyone who visits Hong Kong must come to take pictures. There is also a long line waiting to take pictures. 555 We will get off at Quarray Bay Station Exit A. Then walk for about 5-10 minutes. #hongkong #journeycallsofficial #hongkong #getdiscountwithoutluck

When mentioning Putian, people always talk about its manufacturing industry But actually, as a tourist destination There are still many places to play If you don't want to go to Quanzhou and squeeze with the crowd Putian is a good niche destination Because the weather was bad when I went I couldn't go to Meizhou Island, I'll find another chance to go next time . 🔸Banfu Sheng Tea Garden The tea garden is located halfway up the mountain, with a quiet environment Facing Dongzun Reservoir, backed by green mountains It's suitable to come in the evening to drink tea and watch the sunset Just in summer 🦟 there are a bit too many mosquitoes, remember to bring mosquito repellent . 🔸Xinghua Ancient Street The ancient street at night 🏮 is full of flickering lights and bustling crowds It feels like walking into the thousand-year-old prosperous years of Putian It's not very commercial, but it's not very large in scale either . 🔸Guqiao Tower It looks a bit like Chaoyang Tower in Jianshui And also a bit like Tiananmen in Beijing There is a very neat square dance in the square opposite at night . 🔸Nanshan Guanghua Temple A thousand-year-old temple, one of the "Four Great Forests of Fujian" Shakyamuni Buddha Pagoda, Stone Sutra Pillar, and Zheng Sanxian Ancestral Hall The stone pagoda is very similar to the stone pagoda of Kaiyuan Temple in Quanzhou It's suitable for a slow stroll of 2-3 hours . 🔸Dongshan Baoen Temple The stone pagoda in the temple is 68 years earlier than the Shakyamuni Buddha Pagoda It has stood firm through a thousand years of vicissitudes and an 8-magnitude earthquake There are many controversial little "stories" here

#春夏好去处2024 Mazu is an important folk belief in the southeast coast of China. For more than a thousand years, she has been in charge of the inner peace of believers of all sizes. I was really moved when I arrived at the Meizhou Ancestral Temple. I came to pay respect with a pious heart❤️ The Meizhou Ancestral Temple is the headquarters of the global Mazu incarnations. The Tianhou Temples scattered around the world, including Taiwan, finally returned to one. The ancestral temple was built from the flat ground up along the hillside. After many renovations, it has become a scenic spot. There is also a very large statue of Mazu on the top of the mountain, which is very solemn and far away from the one in Taiwan🙏 Standing on the commanding heights, you can overlook the entire sea level. I was really moved. Meizhou is indeed a good place with outstanding people. It only takes two days and one night to travel around the entire island. I highly recommend everyone to travel here, and it is guaranteed to be worthwhile! #Meizhou Island #Mazu Temple #Tianhou Palace

#springsummer2024 Ewei Sea Erosion Geological Park is an unexpected surprise for traveling to Meizhou Island. I didn’t expect that the seemingly warm beach 🏖️ also has such a magnificent view. It is a treasure attraction that you absolutely cannot miss 💎 The whole park is not big, you can walk around it in more than an hour, and if you are lucky, you can also see the beautiful sunset 🌅. The orange sunset is still unforgettable. I strongly recommend it❤️ #Good place for sunset #Beautiful sunset #Natural scenery #Geological Park #Meizhou Island

The car rental cost is 280 yuan/day~ Worried that they would get hungry on the way, I also specifically put some hunger-resistant and nutritious snacks in the car and in the bags we carried, like instant eggs, chicken legs, etc., ready to eat whenever we wanted~ . 💃【Tour Itinerary】 D1 : Nanshan Guanghua Temple + Shakyamuni Buddha Pagoda👉🏻Dongshan Bao'en Temple + Dongshan Meizhou Mazu Palace👉🏻Eastern Twenty-Five Slopes + Hanjiang Old Street District D2: Xinghua Mansion Historical and Cultural Street District👉🏻Yuanmiao Temple Sanqing Hall👉🏻Xinghua Mansion City God Temple . ✅Nanshan Guanghua Temple + Shakyamuni Buddha Pagoda Once you enter Guanghua Temple, you'll see towering ancient trees and numerous monks, with magnificent Buddhist palaces, which is extremely impressive The Shakyamuni Buddha Pagoda is on the left side of the entrance of Guanghua Temple, a national key cultural relic, a stone pagoda in the style of a wooden pavilion, simple and quiet. . ✅Dongshan Bao'en Temple + Dongshan Meizhou Mazu Palace Bao'en Temple is a temple that amazed me, a national protected cultural relic, with a high dome design and a strong sense of space.

The whole journey does not require admission fees! Eating and staying are very cheap! If you also want to find a quiet and less popular city to travel to, I sincerely recommend Putian to you!

Meizhou Island Homestay | "Meiyu Time" Awaits You This Spring Known as the "Penglai of the South," Putian's Meizhou Island is the birthplace of Mazu culture, and Mazu is said to be especially efficacious here! On the weekend, I took a train to Putian Railway Station and hired a private car to Meizhou Island Pier. I arrived on the island in the afternoon, rented an electric scooter, and headed straight to the homestay, named "Meiyu Time" 🏠. The small courtyard in front was absolutely charming—filled with delicate flowers and plants, clearly meticulously maintained. The room was spacious, comfortable, and bathed in sunlight. Right across from the homestay was the beach 🏖️, making it super convenient to play in the water. The view of the sea from the window was an amazing surprise! The front yard faces the ocean 🌊—just a cup of coffee ☕ and a plate of desserts 🧁, and a lovely afternoon tea begins! You can also head to the rooftop, which is a great spot for sea views. A few pure white lounge chairs are perfect for sunbathing, and you can see fishing boats dotting the sea and distant mountains. At dusk, I set off for Golden Beach 🏖️, just a three-minute walk from the homestay. I was lucky enough to catch the sunset 🌇, with the golden light spilling over the water and sand [Island]. Walking barefoot by the shore with the sea breeze blowing in my face felt absolutely magical. After a tiring day, I returned for a good night's sleep. The room was spacious, the view outside the window was stunning, the bedding was cozy, and the bathroom had a clean, dry-wet separation design. The toiletries were also high quality. The next morning, I visited the temple to burn incense. Further up the mountain, there’s a Mazu Temple, said to house the world’s largest Mazu stone statue, as well as Mazu statues made of jade and gold—truly awe-inspiring. The butler service was excellent, preparing a hearty breakfast and fresh fruit daily. Sitting by the window, enjoying delicious food while gazing at the sea—pure bliss! On Meizhou Island, take your time to savor the charm of everyday life. Stroll to the beach and watch local women weaving and drying fishing nets; see old boats resting on the sand; or sit on the exposed rocks at Meiyu Tide Sound and listen to the island’s loudest waves 🌊. The scenery here is truly remarkable and worth a visit. 🏠 Meizhou Island Meiyu Suji · Time Store [RoundNails]Address: Meiyu Time (No. 150, Shanglianchi, Lianchi Village, Meizhou Town, Putian, Fujian) #TravelInspiration #DesignerHomestay #HiddenGemHomestay #MeizhouIslandTravel #MeizhouIslandHomestay #MeizhouIslandGuide #ExploreMeizhouIsland #PutianHomestay
