Don't just go to West Street when you visit Quanzhou, I highly recommend checking out the seaside
Li Xian and Zhou Yutong's 'Spring Sentiments to Lovers' is now online, and the filming location is right in Quanzhou.
Compared to the crowded West Street, I suggest you visit Quanzhou's seaside for a change. Quanzhou's coastline has been rated as one of the most beautiful in China by 'National Geographic', with numerous scenic islands and beaches.
All your yearnings for the sea can be satisfied here.
🌟 Check out the top ten most beautiful beaches】
✅ Chongwu Ancient City Coast: Chongwu Ancient City is one of the most well-preserved Ming Dynasty stone cities in China, combining coastal scenery, historical relics, folk customs, and sculpture art in one place, and it's also a filming location for 'Spring Sentiments to Lovers'.
✅ Hui'an Women's Folk Customs Park: Here you can watch the tides, sunrise and sunset over the sea, enjoy the fishing village scenery and the charm of Hui'an women.
Xiaocuo Windmill Island: With blue sea, white windmills, and golden rocks, the colors are vivid and pure. This is Quanzhou's 'easternmost land', where the first rays of sunlight illuminate Quanzhou every day.
✅ Shishi Golden Coast: One of the eighteen scenic spots in Quanzhou, the area includes Sea Sky Buddha Country (Luojia Temple, a check-in spot for Li Xian), Treading Waves Guanyin (a giant Guanyin stone statue), Underwater World (a giant cruise ship building), Dolphin Performance Hall, Yacht Club, and a seaside bathing beach.
✅ Guanyin Mountain Beach: Surrounded by the sea on both sides, it's a place where you can watch both the sunrise and sunset.
✅ Shishi Hongta Bay: A rare shallow water beach in Fujian, it's a natural swimming and summer retreat. The sand is fine and soft, and the beach is windy, making it ideal for kite flying.
✅ Yaku Beach: Located at Yaku, the hometown of Shi Lang in Longhu, the towering statue of Shi Lang is a symbol of the bay, with miles of continuous, flat, and fine white quartz sand shining like a silver necklace set between the blue sky and sea, creating a charming scene.
✅ Weitou Jinsawan Beach: The coastline is winding and long, with clear water and clean sand. This is also the site of the 'August 23' artillery bombardment of Kinmen, and it's the closest point on the mainland to Greater Kinmen Island.
✅ Tangdong Beach: The only 'antenna beach' in Asia, it stretches out into the sea like a jade belt and its shape resembles a pulsating musical note. The view from above is spectacular.
✅ Hui Women's Bay Beach: You don't have to go to Pingtan Island to see the blue tears; from April to August every year, the coastline of Hui Women's Bay will display a dreamlike blue.

🚶After coming out of Luoji Temple, turn right along the coastline, and the whole way is the Golden Coast of Shishi. Along the way, enjoy the beautiful scenery of the Golden Coast, with a leisurely journey, relaxed and happy, bathing in the sea breeze, and sharing the daylight.
—————————
Name: Shishi Golden Coast
Address: Seaside, Shishi City, Quanzhou, Fujian Province
Location: Two places are more convenient, the first is Luoji Temple, and the second is Zhongjun Golden Coast Resort
Open: All day
Ticket: Free
—————————
🚶Next, follow the footsteps to see the scenery along the way.
🌟Distant View of Luoji Temple
Coming out of Luoji Temple, you can directly walk towards the Golden Coast. Unexpectedly, the farther away from Luoji Temple, the more stunning the scenery in the distance. Admiring Luoji Temple from afar, it stands like a pearl on the sea against the backdrop of the sky and water.
🌟Vibrant Along the Way
Since it's a beach coast, rich sea activities and bathing beaches are naturally expected. Surfing the waves at sea, swimming freely by the shore, even if you don't participate in these activities, taking off your shoes and strolling on the beach is also nice.
🌟Statue of the South Sea Guanyin
Approaching the central area, the most eye-catching sight is the statue of the South Sea Guanyin in front, guarding the peace of the area, standing quietly with good wishes. Walking closer to observe, the giant stone statue is heart-stirring and is also a landmark of the Golden Coast.
🌟Comprehensive Square
Facing the Golden Coast are the sea-view apartments, so there are quite a few basic facilities equipped, with restaurants and drinks to choose from. The unique shower rooms by the sea are also open to the public for free, the only issue is that it's hard to hail a taxi.
🚶Of course, this is just a stopover during our leisurely time in Shishi, the next stop will have more surprises and scenery along the way, let's set off, young traveler.
