The whole body is red, made of customized purple sand red bricks and red tiles, full of oriental beauty and romantic elements, and you will be deeply attracted when you pass by. 🌟The red house is not only beautiful, but also the new site of the marriage registration office of the Civil Affairs Bureau of Kecheng District, Quzhou City. It is called the most romantic marriage registration office in Zhejiang Province by netizens. 💒The design details of the venue show joy and romance everywhere.

|Check Out the "Heart" Landmark and the Red House That Has Taken Over Social Media. This unique red house is also known as the Quzhou Auditorium. It is located on the shore of Xin'an Lake, at the entrance of Luming Mountain Cultural Courtyard Street. Inside is a marriage registration office, and a corridor inside the auditorium leads to the roof. The staggered steps run through the roofs, and the red tiles and blue sky are extremely impactful. Walking through it, you may feel like you're on top of the world. 🌟Highlights: The Quzhou Auditorium, located in Luming Mountain Cultural Courtyard Street, is also called the "Red Art Museum." The entire venue is built with custom purple sand red bricks and tiles, and is a city art museum with a strong oriental aesthetic created through contemporary design techniques. Walking into the auditorium, through the screen wall, the sunken square suddenly opens up. The entire space has a very high dome, with 8 artistic spiral columns standing in it... The three-dimensional and changeable space structure attracts people to check in. Perhaps it was the designer's intention, but the entire space structure design is quite similar to the Longyou Grottoes in Quzhou. 👍Top Recommendation: After visiting the first-floor hall of the auditorium, go up the stairs on the side to the viewing walkway on the roof, which is what we call "lifting the tiles"! The view from the top floor is naturally excellent. The viewing platform has a wide view, and on a clear day, you can see the cultural and art center, the grassland, and other scenic spots in the west of Quzhou from the roof. Watching an orange city sunset on the roof is also extremely romantic. ✅Must-Do: The most popular attraction in the venue is this bright and hot red heart wall. The red heart wall is surrounded by tourists who come to check in at the "heart" landmark, and there is an endless stream of tourists taking photos. 🗓Nearby Attractions: The Luming Cultural Block next to the Red Auditorium is mainly black and gray, with many adjacent rows and single-family houses. Many shops have not moved in or are not yet completed. From the surrounding landscape and the internal rockery waterfalls and green plants, it looks more like a high-end leisure and dining area. After walking through the whole area, you may not feel the culture, but it seems like a rich area. The entire block takes about 1-2 hours to explore. If you have time, you can also camp and picnic with family and friends on the grassland opposite the block, play and fly kites, and enjoy the warm spring afternoon sun.

Red Auditorium: As a landmark building on Luming Cultural Center Street, the doorpost combines traditional red makeup elements such as wedding dresses and red veils with auspicious patterns of dragons and phoenixes through abstract techniques; the "happiness" chair in front of the door incorporates a double-shaped seal as an auxiliary texture. The top of the corridor adopts a starry design, combined with aluminum veneer hollow floodlight flying mural pattern wall paintings and interactive projection equipment, creating a dreamy and romantic atmosphere. The auditorium is unique in red bricks, red tiles and heart-shaped patterns. Under the sunlight, the red heart-shaped wall looks even more fiery and bright. Going up to the second floor is a great place to watch the sunset. Come and have a night chat with your girlfriend or boyfriend😊

There are tens of millions of Confucius Temples, but only two family temples. Jining, Shandong in the north and Quzhou, Zhejiang in the south. If you want to experience the strong Confucian atmosphere in the south, come to Quzhou! P2: 📍 Lumingshan Cultural Center Street·Yuandao Cultural Museum P3: 📍 Lumingshan Cultural Center Street·Red Auditorium Note: The red heart is very photogenic, and I strongly recommend friends who come to Quzhou to check in here!

If you want to watch the sunset, you have to come early to find the elevator that goes directly to the 10th floor (Lixian Terrace) (there are several elevators that cannot reach the 10th floor, some can only go to the 2nd floor, and some can only go to the 9th floor at most). P9～P11：📍 Yaowang Mountain Note: You can get there by bus, which takes about an hour. The whole mountain can be climbed in about three or four hours (if you stop and go along the way).

After visiting Quzhou, the locals all praised my travel guide.||| I spent two days in Quzhou and felt incredibly happy! I'm glad I did my research on the travel guide! There were delicious foods and fun places to visit! Firstly, regarding transportation, I arrived at Quzhou Station, which is very close to the city center. Coming out of Quzhou Station, you'll find Wanda Plaza right there, which is super convenient. The attractions in Quzhou are quite concentrated, so you can get to them by walking or by bus, which is very convenient. For accommodation, we stayed at a place near Shuitingmen which was newly opened in 2024. The environment was particularly nice, and it was very clean inside! Highly recommended! Places to visit: 1️⃣ Shuitingmen, a must-visit attraction in Quzhou. We went there both in the evening and during the day. You can go up on the city wall to take photos. Shuitingmen looks especially beautiful at night, and there are some places to eat and stroll around nearby, but there's no need to buy anything. 2️⃣ Luming Mountain Cultural District has a super large lawn where many people come for picnics and outings. It's perfect for a slow-paced lifestyle and great for bringing kids to play and fly kites. There's also a distinctive red house nearby, which is a good spot for taking photos. And there are deer on the road! There's a special place where you can feed the deer, which is great for kids! 3️⃣ Songyuan Vegetable Market is a local market. We went there close to noon, and the whole street was filled with special local foods! The bagged pancakes were delicious, remember to add a fried dough stick! There are also special rice balls, roast duck, egg pancakes, duck heads, and so on. Basically, all the special local foods are here, and there's no need to queue for a long time. 4️⃣ Yaowang Mountain, a must-visit for those who love mountains and waters. Yaowang Mountain is truly a hidden gem with beautiful scenery and not many people. It's a great place to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city and breathe fresh air. There's also a glass walkway and a glass slide on the mountain! The glass slide is really fun! I suggest everyone go and try it out! We took a bus there, which goes directly to Yaowang Mountain, and it takes about 2 hours to climb. There are many other attractions, such as the Confucius Temple, which was not open when we visited, but it's expected to open on May 1st! Food section: This time, I asked many locals and didn't queue up at those super popular internet-famous stores. The duck heads and other dishes in Quzhou are actually quite good at any random roadside store, so there's no need to queue for hours at internet-famous stores. 1️⃣ Lei Ji Spicy Hot Pot The spicy hot pot in Quzhou is really unique and delicious, a taste not found elsewhere. This store is said to be a place where locals have been eating since they were children. 2️⃣ ocake After eating at Lei Ji Spicy Hot Pot, this is a dessert shop with a really cool decor. It's very suitable for taking photos, and the desserts are super delicious! Highly recommended to try! 3️⃣ Xie's Kitchen Delicious Quzhou cuisine! The place was almost full of locals, which shows the value of this restaurant. We went to the one on He Wu Road, which is very close to Quzhou Station. Their mouth-watering chicken is a classic and unique to their restaurant! The garlic shrimp with vermicelli is also delicious! And they serve rice in an electric rice cooker, which is really cute! 4️⃣ Little West Gate Pizza A pizza place opened by a foreigner locally! A 10-inch large pizza is only 33 yuan! I was shocked! We ordered the roasted chicken pizza, the most classic and delicious! 5️⃣ Quzhou Renjia Their dishes are also particularly delicious! Stir-fried pork, dry pot green beans with beef, and more!
