Visited Quanzhou and came up with a complete City Walk guide

✈ Quanzhou, this beautiful city that is half fireworks and half fairyland, was praised by Marco Polo as the 'City of Light' and was once the most prosperous port in the Orient during the Song and Yuan dynasties. The city is filled with blooming Cercis chinensis flowers, as if it's an office of the fairy world, with two ancient pagodas and a historic street forming the skeleton of the city. 🏮Suggested itinerary: 📍Day 1: Start from West Street, visit the Bell Tower, Kaiyuan Temple, Chengtian Temple, Confucian Temple, Qingjing Mosque, Guanyue Temple, Tianhou Palace to the museum, and watch a puppet show. 📍Day 2: Explore the charm of Xunpu Village, visit Luoyang Temple, and the beautiful scenery on the Golden Beach. 👣 The first day's itinerary is well-organized, with food and attractions distributed along a line. You can choose the attractions to visit based on your physical strength, with special recommendations for Tianhou Palace and Kaiyuan Temple. Remember to book your visit to the Quanzhou Intangible Cultural Heritage Museum in advance! 🎭 Puppet shows require at least a three-day advance booking, and after the performance, you can take a close photo with the puppets. 🌄 On the second day, you can wear traditional clothing in Xunpu Village, experience makeup and photography for only 40 yuan. The seaside sunset is enchanting, and Luoyang Temple is an excellent spot for photography. 🍜【Food Recommendations】 🍗 Tong'an Fragrant Chicken Leg: Rich in flavor, worthy of a four-star recommendation. 🫓 Aunt Qin's Taro Cake: Five-star delicious, melts in your mouth, an uplifting choice for the taste buds. 🎍 Anhai Uncle Wu's Tusan Freeze: Three-star rating, sea worm cuisine, a challenge for taste and courage. 🧋 Mei Chao Feng: Three stars, average taste, but the experience is different when you go up to the rooftop to overlook the East and West Towers. 🚌【Transportation】 Quanzhou is equipped with an airport and high-speed train station, convenient and fast. The city's attractions are concentrated, recommended to walk, rent an electric bike, or take a small white car. 🏡【Accommodation Experience】 During the May Day period, I chose a homestay near West Street. Walking into a small alley, I found a red-brick courtyard, a typical Minnan architectural style. The courtyard has a tea room where you can enjoy a leisurely tea break, barbecue in the yard, and watch the sunset on the rooftop, quiet and comfortable. 📸 Finally, I have to share the 7 best photo spots around West Street: 1. Koi Coffee 2. Berry Crazy 3. Overlord Tea Ji 4. Quanzhou Cinema 5. West Street Tourist Service Center 6. Bell Tower 7. Christian Church 🌟 PS: If you have extra time, it is recommended to go to Wudian City in Jinjiang, where there are many well-preserved Minnan ancient buildings, worth exploring.
