It was built by early overseas Chinese who returned to their hometowns. It has traditional Minnan-style ancient houses, ancient Roman-style Western-style buildings, and a combination of Chinese and Western Gothic-style buildings. The history and culture here are a complete slice of the history of the South Seas. After countless storms, it still stands quietly here.

Previously, during a half-day layover in Quanzhou, I discovered a serene corner hidden away from the modern hustle and bustle, about 20 minutes' drive (10 kilometers) from the airport—Wulin Traditional Village. Unlike the bustling West Street adorned with flowers, it quietly stands there, with its distinctive red brick and white stone buildings that blend Minnan and Nanyang styles, telling the story of overseas Chinese's love for their homeland. · 🌲Before entering the village, you can see towering phoenix trees from afar, with their fiery red flowers in full bloom, seemingly welcoming visitors from afar and calling out to wanderers. 🏠Upon entering the village, you will see rows of red brick and white stone buildings, with various deities and mythical creatures on the swallowtail ridges, each with its own unique features. 🏰As you go further in, you will see Western-style buildings such as the Chaodong Building, the Spanish-style Qiaopi Museum built with red bricks, and the Roman-style Western-style building "Gun Tower". They all bear witness to the overseas Chinese who ventured out to explore the new world but never forgot their homeland and gave back to their hometown. 🌟Recommended spots to check out: ✅Chaodong Building ✅Qiaopi Museum ✅Gun Tower ✅Five-story House ✅Juruo Ancient House Bookstore. Ladies can also change into Peranakan costumes here to experience the Nanyang style. What impressed me the most was a coffee shop here where the latte art was actually the God of Wealth, truly reflecting the Fujian people's love and longing for wealth . 👉Directions: 📌Wulin Traditional Village, Jinjiang, Quanzhou 🚗About 20 minutes by taxi from Quanzhou Airport, about 40 minutes by car from the city center 🎫No entrance fee, there is a shuttle bus at the entrance to the village (about a 10-minute walk from the entrance to the village) · I am Gungun, a middle-aged girl who loves photography and hopes to share various experiences along the way with you.

#Mainland China Hotels #China Travel #Mainland China Attractions The hotel is right next to Jinjiang Airport, but this time we took the high-speed rail to Jinjiang Station and then took a 20-minute car ride to reach the hotel. The location is very convenient and very suitable for travelers who have an early flight or arrive late at night and want to rest immediately. This hotel is high-end, with a bright, simple and modern lobby. This time I stayed in a business king-size room, which cost around 400, which I think is very cost-effective. The room is spacious and comfortable, well-equipped and clean. The waiter's attitude is also very friendly. The breakfast options and quality are average, but I will definitely stay here again if I come to Jinjiang next time. Overall personal experience rating 4.5/5 ⭐

April in Quanzhou | Heading to the gentle, free sea 🌊 Another successful off-peak trip The seaside in late April is quiet and gentle Empty beaches where you can run freely The title comes from the name of this Quanzhou hotel, Seven Xu Reef KAIPUU. (Finnish "kaukokaipuu") perfectly describes what travel means to me. Located on 175-million-year-old natural reefs in Weitou Village, Jinjiang, Quanzhou, every corner of the interior space has a natural poetic beauty. Especially the architecture and interior design of the public spaces - you can sit in any corner, listen to the waves, and enjoy the moment for hours. It's quite far - about a 50-minute drive from the airport. But it's definitely a place worth visiting. The beach is particularly beautiful, and the reefs, waves, and sea breeze are all very refreshing. The surrounding amenities are average, certainly not as abundant as downtown. The hotel restaurant is beautiful too, but the food is just okay. I love this hotel built on the reef Perfect for a slow-paced weekend to unwind

Thinking about having a romantic getaway before the May Day holiday rush, we discussed and decided to visit Quanzhou. When it comes to travel, choosing a hotel with the right vibe is most important ❤️❤️❤️ After comparing many hotels, we finally decided on Wyndham. But!! When we arrived!! We discovered there are TWO Wyndham hotels in Quanzhou!! And we booked the one in the neighboring city!! In Jinjiang!! We just stared at each other in disbelief. So after taking a high-speed train for several hours to Quanzhou, we had to drive for another hour to Jinjiang (the pain of being tricked). 📍Quanzhou Jinjiang Wyndham Hotel But! This hotel is really amazing!! Renovated in 2017, everything from the lobby to the rooms is new and meets my standards for a good hotel. 🍽 Breakfast includes many local specialties and some Western options, though the variety isn't particularly extensive. The service is truly excellent, with every staff member being very gentle and kind. ❗️The downside is the location is quite remote, which might be inconvenient if you don't have a car. ❗️There are no bars nearby, and the hotel's bar is more business-oriented, not really suitable for college students. ❤️So we ordered alcohol delivery, and the hotel provided ice for us, which was perfect. ❤️The hotel is genuinely excellent, a loud reminder from someone who's been there! But make sure you don't book the wrong location!! The one in Quanzhou has "Garden" in its name, while the one in Jinjiang doesn't. As for whether the Quanzhou location is good, I don't know, but when we passed by it looked quite beautiful, and they're from the same group.

When traveling to Fujian, the average person may think of "Xiamen", "Fuzhou", or "Yongding Tulou", but today I want to recommend "Fujian Quanzhou Jinjiang" near the sea, close to Kinmen. 😄 Jinjiang Jinjing always feels more "rural", there are no high-rise buildings, but it is close to the sea, what is intoxicating scenery, plus some poetic and picturesque. 🤪 I recommend you to go to three locations, Liu Jiang, Wai Tau Harbor and Tong Dong Tentacle Sofa. Everywhere near the sea, as far as the eye can see, if you choose to go at sunset, Tongdong is so beautiful that you can't wait to leave, it's really beautiful! 😌 It is recommended that you use the way to take a taxi in Quanzhou area, so it will be better to go!

As a local who has eaten through West Street I've prepared this detailed guide overnight Ancient houses + sea breeze + Minnan flavors all in one place 📸 🏡 Accommodation Guide to Avoid Pitfalls ▫️ For West Street guesthouses, stay near 1915 Art Space where you can capture both towers in one frame from the rooftop ▫️ Light sleepers should avoid West Street main road! Guesthouses hidden in alleys like Jiuguan Yi are quieter ▫️ In the Wanda area, choose LOFT at Leading Show City, just a 5-minute walk to the TF rooftop for city night views ▫️ In Xunpu Village, stay in renovated stone houses so you can skip the line for hairpin decorating the next day 🌊 Transportation Tips ▫️ Don't take a taxi from Quanzhou Railway Station! Take the K1 bus for just 2 yuan directly to the Clock Tower ▫️ Rent an electric scooter (30 yuan per day) in the old town area, perfect for finding food through narrow alleys ▫️ Hidden route: There's a tourist shuttle from Wulin Ancient Village to Luojia Temple, where the "Buddha on the Sea" looks stunning in the 4pm light ▫️ Don't take unlicensed taxis to Chongwu Ancient Town! Buy a 15 yuan bus ticket at the passenger transport center for direct service 🍜 Local Food Guide ✔️ Jin Ji Satay Noodles (locals eat here from childhood to parenthood) ✔️ Dongxing Beef Shop (beef steak + salty rice with peanut sauce) ✔️ Auntie Zhuang's Taro Cake (opens at 3pm, be ready to queue) ✔️ Ai Ah Stone Jelly (add taro paste and QQ fruit for the authentic experience) ✔️ Shuimen Guozi Vermicelli Soup (must dip with fried dough sticks!!) 📸 Photography Guide ▪️ West Street Meichaofeng Rooftop (for sunset shots with both towers) ▪️ Wulin Chaodong Building (orange ancient houses with palm trees) ▪️ Luojia Temple (capture the "Buddha on the Sea" during high tide) ▪️ Xunpu Oyster Shell Houses (use oyster walls as foreground) ▪️ Chengtian Temple Red Walls (an uncrowded Forbidden City alternative with great lighting) ⚠️ Important Tips ❌ Don't buy Four Fruit Soup for more than 15 yuan on West Street! Bingzheng Hall on Zhongshan Road sells it for just 9 yuan ⭕️ Choose shops offering hairpin decorating service with costumes for 40 yuan, located near Xunpu Ship Management Station ⭕️ Check the tide table for Shishi Golden Coast Beach - you can only see the "blue tears" during low tide ⭕️ Taro cakes taste even better after refrigeration! They make great souvenirs to take home

Jijiang At night!

Quanzhou has been so popular in recent years that I don't like to join in the fun. Last year, I made a short stop in the city and went straight to the county to see the sea. Under the guidance of local friends, I visited many beaches in one go. I'm saving this here so that I don't have to redo the guide next time I go there. ❤️【Accommodation】Wanjia International Hotel (Jinjing), the only four-star hotel in the town, is not expensive and convenient to go anywhere. ❤️【Sea】The town is surrounded by the sea on three sides, so you have to go to different beaches to watch the sunrise and sunset and take pictures. The style of each beach is different. Shizhen: We went there in the evening, and the sun set right behind us, which means the sunrise would be right in the middle of the sea. The view is wide, the sunrise is great, the sand is soft and clean, and there is no garbage on the ground. I like it. ❤️Jinsha Bay: I didn't go there because I caught the high-speed train. The map shows that it is a small protruding tip, facing the sunrise, which should be very good. ❤️Zizaihai: There are some film settings, but the sea is relatively small, like a concave character, surrounded by the coast on both sides, and the field of view is not wide. Making good use of the coast can produce effects different from other beaches. ❤️Yakou: The place shown in the picture has the sunrise on the left hand side, which is not quite in the right position. It did not meet my fantasy of the sunrise over the sea, but it was still good. The beach is not as clean as Shizhen, and the sand is slightly harsh on the feet. The time for sunset viewing was limited so I didn't find the beach, but Tentacle Beach seemed okay? Oh, you can also go to the sea to dig for shells. Ask the locals where is suitable. [Full Tour Route] (High-speed Rail to) Quanzhou - (Taxi) Jinjing County - (Taxi) Wudian City - (Taxi) Jinjiang Station (High-speed Rail Return) [Play] Quanzhou-Guanyu Temple, East-West Street, Qingyuan Mountain, Quanzhou Puppet Show Jinjing-Kanhaiwudian-Snack Street Casual gameplay, free time arrangement.

| Is it worth driving for 8 hours? Qixu Reef Hotel, as the name suggests, is really a hotel built on a reef, which is also one of the hotel’s biggest features. Here you can find vast sandy beaches, beautiful sunsets and sunrises, as well as magnificent fireworks on holidays. Every scene and every shutter click is very photogenic. It is really suitable for sisters who love taking photos! The hotel’s benefits include tea-drinking fun, yoga classes, five free Trip Moments, two special drinks every night, and more. It’s packed with activities and you won’t feel bored at all! The hotel's breakfast is semi-buffet, and the ordering includes special snacks such as Fujian seafood noodles and shacha noodles. The buffet is salad, various fresh fruits, juices, etc., with a rich variety. The seafood restaurant nearby recommended by the hotel is also very delicious. The guest room is clean and tidy, especially the toothpaste they chose is Marvis, I love it! I can hear the sound of the waves in the room, and the waves 🌊 accompany me to sleep, it is really safe and comfortable! The downside is that the hotel is located in a village in Jinjiang City, too far from downtown Quanzhou, and the surrounding supporting facilities are seriously inadequate.
