A good place to have a Picnic in Fuzhou!
We travelled 3 cities in Fujian by car. It was a nice experience to see their beautiful aspects. Zhangzhou, Quanzhou and Fuzhou these places have beaches. Although they are not as nice as in Sanya but they are good enough. Since it's still cold the beaches are empty but I think in Summer it won't be as many people as in Sanya. It's a good option to go to especially for those who are into beaches and mountains. When we were in Fuzhou we decided to have a picnic so my partner searched a good place where it has a good view And yes he found one. This place is good to have a picnic. When we arrived there only one group of friends were there. I was quite happy because it's not crowded and we can mostly enjoy the place and the view. We paid 30 yuan for the parking well that's ok you can stay there as long as you want. I really like the place.

Never thought that when you walked a city, you would encounter a dream castle that would appear in a fairy tale in the air. The red and white spires stood straight into the blue sky, as if you were a little taller. I can meet the clouds, here is the outlets of Fuzhou, where I met roses and fairy-tale sweetness, which is the most beautiful encounter between me and the city.

Qishan Wanfo Temple.
Wanfo Temple, originally known as Qishan Shisong Temple, was built in the third year of Dazhong Xiangfu of the Song Dynasty (1010 AD) and was originally named Lingfeng Temple.
In the tenth year of Shaoxing (1140 AD), the monk Tianshi planted a dragon claw pine next to the temple, and it was renamed Shisong Temple. After two constructions during the Ming Chenghua and Wanli years, it was quite large and was once one of the Buddhist holy places in Fuzhou.
In 1999, the government approved the reconstruction of Shisong Temple and renamed it Qishan Wanfo Temple. The temple houses 10,000 white porcelain Buddhas, and the temple is named "Qishan Wanfo Temple". Its series of antique buildings such as the inner and outer mountain gates, the Heavenly King Hall, the Bell and Drum Tower, the Daxiong Hall, the Xuejie Hall, the Zhai Hall, the Nianfo Hall, the Prajna Hall, and the 100-acre natural release pond built along the mountain, etc., are scattered and elegant. Quiet. Famous mountains and ancient temples reflect each other, the sound of bells and the wind overlap, the fragrance of flowers and the fragrance of Buddha converge, and nature and humanities are combined.
Since ancient times, Fuzhou's famous temples have said "West Flag and East Drum, Flag and Drum are equal".

The hotel covers a huge area with lake views, river views, and mountain views, all meticulously arranged. Walking on the forest paths, you can hear the constant chirping of insects and birds.

In Fuzhou, really in Fuzhou!
In Fuzhou, really in Fuzhou!
I accidentally discovered this tent hotel.
Arrived at the hotel in the evening ▲, ordered a cup of coffee from the coffee shop nestled in the bushes, found the fried chicken skewers super delicious, and the drinks were surprisingly no different from those in the city.
▲ There is a clear stream below the tent area where you can roll up your pants and catch fish. Although it's summer, the stream water is cool, and you can even swim a bit upstream. There are grapefruit trees by the creek, which are said to belong to the camp. If you're lucky, you might get to taste ripe grapefruits from the trees.

The riverside is an excellent place for dinner. You can choose to have barbecue or hot pot for dinner. I chose barbecue. The grilled pork belly was really fragrant and delicious!
There was also a bubble party nearby, and the kids were having a blast. Sitting nearby, you could feel the joyful atmosphere.
In the evening, I encountered an amazing sky. The purple sky was really beautiful! After dark, there was a light show, with various lights projected onto the nearby mountains. It was quite a grand spectacle.
▲ At night, I slept in the tent accompanied by the breeze and the chirping of insects. However, if you don't sleep well, it's recommended to wear an eye mask and earplugs.
The next morning, you can contact the butler for a delicious and light breakfast, which is very suitable for people from Putian.
Across the road from the camp is Minyue Water Town. If you have enough time the next day, you can plan to visit there.
Is this the fairyland in the dream? This homestay has such a sense of design
Opening the large wooden door of the courtyard, what comes into view is a vast Chinese garden. The garden is well-arranged, with surprising scenery at every corner. The butler said that when more than 60 cherry blossom trees inside and outside the homestay bloom in spring, it is simply divine.
The homestay has 6 rooms, three on the second floor, one of which is the most popular room with a floor-to-ceiling window bathtub, perfect for photos! The room looks about 60 square meters large. There are another 4 rooms on the third floor and a sunroom where you can have tea. The butler Jerry said that you can either book individual rooms or the entire homestay. During the day, it can accommodate teams of more than 30 people, and with the tatami, it can accommodate 21 people.
The homestay also allows for barbecuing in the garden and brewing tea around the stove. At night, this is the best stargazing spot in Fuzhou (because the surrounding villages have very little light pollution, you can even photograph star trails), and in the morning, you can see the sea of clouds and the sunrise.
The first floor of the homestay is a public area: a large living room, an open reading area, and two tatami tea rooms, one large and one small. The semi-open basement has mini-golf, a pool table, karaoke, and two arcade machines, making it perfect for team building or gatherings of friends. The garden is large, about 2000 square meters, and is well-maintained. There is an old olive tree at the back of the yard, with a swing hanging from it.
The butler here is very, very good. He introduced us to every detail of the homestay and recommended many fun places around the area. The stargazing spot was also recommended by him.
Fuzhou's Forest Lotus Pond: A Summer Healing Scenery
The summer heat can be unbearable, but today I discovered the lotus pond at this hotel in Fuzhou, and it felt like stepping into a summer fairyland 🌿! Here, there is a one-kilometer winding lotus pond, with blooming lotuses that look like fairies in a painting, making me forget the heat instantly 🔥.
Walking into this sea of lotuses, you'll find that the lotuses here stretch out like green ribbons, with lush green leaves 🍃. In this 1800-acre forest garden, the lotus leaves are even more breathtaking. Strolling along the lakeside path, you can deeply feel the tranquility and comfort brought by the dense lotus leaves on the lake.
Although there are occasional light rains, they cannot extinguish the summer heat ☀️. We might as well walk along the lake embankment with an umbrella, feeling the gentle breeze and the beautiful scenery of the slightly rippling lotus fields. You'll find that the beauty of lotuses in the rain has a unique charm. 🌸 Raindrops gently hit the lotus leaves, splashing water droplets, while the lotuses sway gently in the rain, as if whispering to you.
This is my healing scenery for the summer, making me feel the beauty and gentleness of nature 🍃. The lotuses are not only beautiful but also have an elegant fragrance that is refreshing. If you also want to find a bit of coolness and tranquility in such a summer, you must come here and take a look.
A hidden gem for water fun around Fuzhou!!! There's also an entire garden!!!
Less than 1h drive from Fuzhou, you can camp by the creek, play in the water, and paddleboard! There's also a whole garden of sunflowers in full bloom!
And a green house surrounded by hydrangeas
The sunlight pours in! It's so beautiful, so beautiful!!! Took hundreds of photos with friends!!!

#Fuzhou #FuzhouHotel #FuzhouTravel
In Fuzhou!!! Stayed at the same hotel for 3 times!! Extremely satisfied!!!
So satisfied that I want to write a special review on Ctrip!!! Originally, the first night was emmm... but it was really noisy in the middle of the night (speechless.. so I decisively changed to this one.
On a rainy day, listening to Taylor Swift's songs, eating takeout, and drinking a cup of Tang Mo Cha Xi, I felt so happy!!!! (Loudly) After spending time like this, I felt recharged and ready for an 8 AM class. I feel incredibly strong now (not kidding) and happy as a college student~
The hotel's location is great
Minhou County is close to University Town/Minyue Water Town/Olympic Sports Center. It's a 5-minute walk to the bus stop and 800m from Jinyu Metro Station. There's a mall nearby for shopping and dining.
The room's view is beautiful with large floor-to-ceiling windows and a great view~ The city night view from the 15th floor is dazzling and brilliant.
Soaking in the bathtub for a while, applying a face mask, and shaking a wine glass with my partner, hahaha. It was so comfortable to wash away the day's fatigue. The service staff were very enthusiastic and would proactively introduce the laundry room/breakfast options. The little robot delivering takeout was also very convenient.
Staying at a B&B with my bestie in Fuzhou was amazing
So annoyed with questions! From now on, when visiting Fuzhou... locking in this B&B 😭

The front desk 👩🏻 service is very enthusiastic, and they can solve any problems.

The guest rooms offer 😄 laundry, and communication is very convenient; you can just talk to the in-house wX, and downstairs there's everything you need for eating, drinking, and having fun 🥰.

Century Golden Resources Domain Scenery Hotel is recommended in Fuzhou
|📍 No.280, Guobin Avenue, Shangjie Town, Minhou County, Fuzhou City, Fujian Province
✅ The hotel is conveniently located near the university town, which is very convenient for those who need to take exams in Fuzhou University Town (Jiangxia College, Fuzhou University, Fujian Normal University, Fujian University of Traditional Chinese Medicine...). There is a bus station downstairs, which makes it easy to get to places like the Olympic Sports Center, Minyue Water Town, Sanfang Qixiang, etc. A ten-minute walk will take you to Yongjia Dongbai Tiandi, where dining and shopping are convenient; two bus stops away is the University Town Snack Street🤩
🏨 The hotel is very modern in decoration, which I personally like very much. There is a self-service tea drink on the first floor, the elevator🛗 uses a card to automatically recognize the floor where your room is located, and delivery is brought up by a robot🤖️, which is safe and convenient (I have to mention that the elevator is very stable, and the elevator environment is also very high-end and comfortable). The rooms are equipped with a mini-fridge and come with two cans of drinks, which is also great for friends who have a long stay need. 💡 There is a control mode for all the lights in the room by the bed, with a one-click sleep mode that automatically turns off the lights and curtains, which is too comfortable! The TV has live and on-demand broadcasting and also supports screen casting. The soundproofing is very good, and no noise can be heard in the corridor, so students who come to prepare for exams won't be disturbed. Guest rooms are on the 10F-20F, with high-floor large windows to enjoy the city view.
The laundry room, gym, and restaurant are all on the 3F of the hotel. The gym is well-equipped, and the laundry room is right next to the gym, so you can experience the gym while waiting for your clothes; breakfast includes local Fuzhou specialties!! Rouyan, fish balls, laohua, cooked and eaten on the spot, in addition to local specialties, there are also a variety of choices such as coarse grains, pasta, bread, etc.
💰The average cost per person is 100+, and the cost performance is still very high!!

Make a day trip and come for a hiking adventure at Minhou Wuhu Mountain
Minhou Wuhu Mountain can be considered a treasure trove for hiking enthusiasts in Fuzhou! There's not just one route to choose from, but many routes that can be connected and arranged according to one's own strength and interest. You must try it if you have the chance.
This time, I recommend one of the hiking routes, rush on the holidays
⭕ Wuhu Mountain Hiking Route
From Huangtubian Village in Minhou, Fuzhou -- Wulingyan Zen Temple - White Tiger -- Suihu Mountain --- Tiger Cub -- Shaigucheng -- Jiuxian Temple -- Xiaojiadao Bus Station
Ps: There are multiple entrances for hiking Wuhu Mountain. For beginners, it is highly recommended to start from Huangtubian Village, go up the mountain via Wulingyan Zen Temple, and continue to Jiuxian Temple. From Jiuxian Temple, follow the wide mountain road directly to Xiaojiadao. This way, even if you can only descend the mountain in the evening, at least the road down is much safer!
⭕ Wuhu Mountain Hiking Precautions
After reaching Jiuxian Temple, beginners should definitely take the main road directly down to Xiaojiadao. Do not think about heading towards Lion Head Peak, as this section of the road is currently less traveled, with weeds taller than a person, and the mountain path is deserted, making it impossible to find the way! We were delayed here for half an hour, unable to find the way, and ultimately had to give up. We asked the person in charge at Jiuxian Temple and descended the mountain via the main road to Xiaojiadao!
⭕ Wuhu Mountain Hiking Preparation
The section of the road from Wulingyan Zen Temple to White Tiger is relatively difficult to walk, with narrow paths that only allow one person to pass, and weeds on both sides that are even taller than a person. In the summer and autumn seasons, you may encounter various snakes and insects, so it is recommended to wear long sleeves, long pants, hats, walking sticks, and suitable hiking shoes!
A power bank is a must-have to prevent your phone from running out of battery!
Be sure to download offline maps, as there will be no signal near Shaigucheng!
For those hiking Wuhu Mountain for the first time, you can download the outdoor app: Liuzhijiao, which will help you follow the trail and basically not get lost. Be sure to refer to the latest route, don't do archaeology!!!
⭕ Best Photo Spots on Wuhu Mountain Hiking
The best photo spots during the Wuhu Mountain hike are also at the beginning of the route, especially near White Tiger, with giant rocks, reed marshes, and cityscapes, all making for excellent backgrounds!
⭕ Time Required for Wuhu Mountain Hiking
Hiking time varies from person to person. Our full journey of 13.23 kilometers took about 7 hours, with nearly a third of the time spent taking photos; it is recommended to start climbing from Huangtubian Village as early as possible in the morning, aiming to start by 9 am.
⭕ Is Self-Driving Recommended
If you self-drive to Huangtubian Village according to our route, after descending the mountain to Xiaojiadao, you will have to take a bus to Shanggan Town, and then from Shanggan Town, take a ride back to Huangtubian Village to retrieve your car.
Cars can be parked 50 meters inside the archway of Huangtubian Village, then walk up the mountain. It is not recommended to park your car further inside at Wulingyan Zen Temple or Zhengji Temple, as the mountain roads are steep and only have one lane.
If you have time on the holidays, then go into the mountains and have fun.

After six consecutive days of busy work, I finally welcomed a brief respite. For two of those days, I was plagued by neuralgia, feeling as if both body and mind were bound by busyness and pain. However, today, I finally took the step to visit Minyue Water Town, allowing my soul to find a moment of tranquility.
The scenery here is like a painting interwoven with shades of green, refreshing and uplifting to the spirit. Each step feels like walking in poetry and the distance, momentarily making me forget the busyness of work and the pain of my body. I strolled along the water's edge, watching the shimmering surface, listening to the babbling of the stream, feeling the harmony and peace of nature.
Although the quality of the performance was mediocre, it did not affect my enjoyment of this journey. After all, the meaning of travel is not just to appreciate the scenery and watch performances, but more importantly, to relax and nourish one's soul. Here, I found that long-lost tranquility and comfort, and I also rediscovered my love and anticipation for life.
The Minyue Water Town journey brought me abundant joy and emotion. In the days to come, I hope to continue exploring more beautiful landscapes, making my life even more splendid and fulfilling.

Hiking in Fuzhou Sandiequan Forest Park
Fuzhou Sandiequan Forest Park is a national forest ecological reserve. Located in Renzhou Village, Guanyuanli, Jingxi Town, Minhou County, Fuzhou City, Fujian Province, the park is characterized by its clear pools, lush mountains, and verdant forests, filled with a rich primitive charm. Once you enter the mountain gate and walk along the mountain path, you will come to the first wonder of the Sandiequan Waterfalls - the Elephant Trunk Waterfall, named for the giant rock beside the pool that resembles an elephant's trunk. The waterfall stretches from the high cliff top all the way to the bottom of the pool, with a force as powerful as thunder. If you climb the ladder to heaven, you will find the second well, the Fairy Waterfall, and the third well, the Qingyin Waterfall. If you have good physical strength, you can go there. The scenic area is only accessible on foot, and the entrance fee is 30 yuan.
