A Three-Day, Two-Night Special Forces Experience in Fuzhou on a Rainy Day

This trip was mainly for the jj20 concert, so this guide only represents my personal experience. Friends who have something to add are welcome to do so in the comments section. Since the time of my flight's arrival didn't match the airport shuttle bus schedule, I chose to take the subway. Additionally, the subway was free on the weekend, which was very cost-effective. You can take a taxi to Wanshou Subway Station🚉 for about 20💰. Other than the longer time, I felt it was pretty good. Kaiyuan Temple—Sanfang Qixiang—Wanda Plaza—Xichan Temple—Yantai Mountain I especially recommend Kaiyuan Temple in Fuzhou. Admission is free, and you can get incense for free upon entering the temple. The temple isn't very large but it's very popular, and inside there's a thousand-year-old iron Buddha that's definitely worth seeing. There will be more locals around. There's a Yellow Alley in Sanfang Qixiang, and if you walk inside, there's a market with many original fridge magnets for sale, priced from 💰15-45. I think it's nice to buy one as a souvenir. Sanfang Qixiang is close to Wanda Plaza, which is right across from Xichan Temple. Xichan Temple does require an admission fee of 20💰. After visiting, a local Didi driver told us that you can enter through the back door for free, but I don't know if that's true. I suggest you set aside half a day or a full day to visit Yantai Mountain. Walking around and taking photos takes a long time. Because it kept raining, we ended up walking briskly for about 4 hours and couldn't go on, so we returned to the hotel. However, Yantai Mountain in the misty rain has a unique charm. On a clear day, the experience would be even better👍. Don't miss the spot in photo 6 along the river at Yantai Mountain, near Zhongzhou Island and Jiefang Bridge, where you can take photos similar to Jay Chou's MV stand-ins. Lastly, let's talk about the food. I personally prefer fish balls and flat meat. I casually ate at a Xiangji Quanzhen Fish Ball shop, which was cheap and delicious. I saw many local elders coming to buy fish balls. Lao Hua is also a casual, no-queue restaurant with a very fresh taste, quite light, suitable for friends who like a lighter taste. Milk Tea: Tangmo (not very amazing, light and not greasy) Hujiu Jasmine (a strong jasmine aroma, heavy milk flavor can be a bit greasy) Because it rained all three days, I didn't get a better chance to explore and eat in Fuzhou. Personally, I still really like the Fujian area. Friends who plan to go should spend an extra day or two to explore more deeply. The subway is free after 17:00 on workdays and on weekends, which is really a great experience!
