The Folk Customs Hall is a must-see, offering a fascinating glimpse into Putian's history and culture. 🏺📚 🌳 Shouxi Park Located next to the museum, this park is a peaceful oasis with fresh air and few visitors. You can even go boating and enjoy some leisure time. 🚣‍♂️🍃 🕊️ Dongshan Bao'en Temple & Mazu Palace These lesser-known attractions are quiet and free to enter, offering a moment of peace and tranquility. 🧘‍♀️🙏 🌆 Yuanmiao Temple Sanqing Hall Open 8:00 am–12:00 pm and 3:00 pm–6:00 pm.

There are even performances during the first lunar month! 🎆🍢 🍽️ Food Recommendations: 1️⃣ Firewood Rice - Gongchen Subdistrict, Licheng District, Putian, Fujian Salty rice is only available at noon, and the delicious soup is only available in the evening, so we recommend visiting at noon. The flavors are amazing! 🍚🔥 2️⃣ Longqiao Wonton - No. 70, Jianshe Road, Fenghuangshan Subdistrict, Chengxiang District, Putian, Fujian We didn't try the signature pig liver, but the other offal dishes were authentic and worth a try! 🐷🍲 3️⃣ Achang Soy Milk Stir Fry - No. 78–92, Jianshe Road, Chengxiang District, Putian, Fujian Located next to Longqiao Wonton, this place is always packed! The soy milk is normal, the Jian Guo is a bit oily, but the Yanpi Wonton Soup is delicious, with a flavor similar to lean meat soup. 🌱🍳 This trip to Putian was truly rewarding!

1. Hong Kong Disneyland Another destination that you must not miss when you visit Hong Kong is here. I recommend going early in the morning so that you have plenty of time to take beautiful photos. LOL This is also my first time there. I waited to buy tickets to enter the park and play some thrilling rides. LOL So much fun! After walking around for a while, I got tired and hungry, so I headed straight to the food court. 2. Graham Street Go to Graham Street, which is a cute street art. 3. Hong Kong Cultural Centre Take the train and get off at Tsim Sha Tsui Station, then walk there. It takes less than 10 minutes to get there. I must say that it is very beautiful. Every angle is great for taking photos. Especially those who love portraits, they will love it even more. If you are around here until the evening, there will be a fireworks show in this area. Let me tell you in advance. Many people come to watch. You can reserve a seat since the evening. 4. Chiu Fat Restaurant If you want to try Hong Kong-style congee, you have to stop by this restaurant. It is located at Tsim Sha Tsui Station. The restaurant has a sign in Thai and the menu is also in Thai. The taste is very good. It is very smooth. If you come at noon, you might have to wait for a table. Opens from 08:00 – 23:00 5. Coffee Obsession A cute cafe. The coffee is delicious. The owner is also cute. When he saw us taking pictures, he helped move the stuff that was blocking the front of the shop. I love it. The shop is located on the North Point side. Opens from 07:30 – 18:00 6. Ah-Yee Rice Noodle Roll This is another breakfast shop on the North Point side. There was a long queue. I went very early and still had to wait. There are about 3-4 tables on the side of the shop. It feels like a morning dumpling shop. But there are a lot of menus to choose from. Opens from 07:00 – 19:00 7. .Choi Hung Estate A rainbow basketball court where everyone has to come to take pictures. Oh, I have to say that it is quite far. It is far from Tsim Sha Tsui. Get off at Choi Hung Station Exit C3, then walk for about 15 minutes. When I arrived at the building, I still couldn't find the basketball court. LOL What the heck? I recommend asking for directions from people around there. When I arrived, there were a lot of people. I had to wait in line to take pictures. I went in the afternoon, so there weren't many people. But the sun was really strong. 8. Lan Fong Yuen This is a really delicious lemon tea shop. I give it to this one. I've been there twice and I never get bored. I finished standing and wanted to order more. LOL This shop is at Central Station. There was a long queue, but it wasn't too long. I really want you to come and try it. It's so refreshing. Opens from 07:30 - 18:00. 9. Bakehouse This branch doesn't have many people. The queue isn't long. If you want to try the super popular Hong Kong egg tart, I recommend this branch. You will definitely get to eat it quickly. Get off at Central Station. Open from 08:00 – 21:00 10. Barista Coffee Company This cafe is also at Central Station. It is right across from Bakehouse. The coffee tastes good. There are not many people. There are tables to rest your legs during the day. Hehe Open from 08:00 – 18:00 11. Yick Flat Building This is a building where Hong Kong residents live. But it is also the location for filming the movie Transformers. So it is a popular check-in point that everyone who visits Hong Kong must come to take pictures. There is also a long line waiting to take pictures. 555 We will get off at Quarray Bay Station Exit A. Then walk for about 5-10 minutes. #hongkong #journeycallsofficial #hongkong #getdiscountwithoutluck

#春夏好去处2024 Mazu is an important folk belief in the southeast coast of China. For more than a thousand years, she has been in charge of the inner peace of believers of all sizes. I was really moved when I arrived at the Meizhou Ancestral Temple. I came to pay respect with a pious heart❤️ The Meizhou Ancestral Temple is the headquarters of the global Mazu incarnations. The Tianhou Temples scattered around the world, including Taiwan, finally returned to one. The ancestral temple was built from the flat ground up along the hillside. After many renovations, it has become a scenic spot. There is also a very large statue of Mazu on the top of the mountain, which is very solemn and far away from the one in Taiwan🙏 Standing on the commanding heights, you can overlook the entire sea level. I was really moved. Meizhou is indeed a good place with outstanding people. It only takes two days and one night to travel around the entire island. I highly recommend everyone to travel here, and it is guaranteed to be worthwhile! #Meizhou Island #Mazu Temple #Tianhou Palace

#springsummer2024 Ewei Sea Erosion Geological Park is an unexpected surprise for traveling to Meizhou Island. I didn’t expect that the seemingly warm beach 🏖️ also has such a magnificent view. It is a treasure attraction that you absolutely cannot miss 💎 The whole park is not big, you can walk around it in more than an hour, and if you are lucky, you can also see the beautiful sunset 🌅. The orange sunset is still unforgettable. I strongly recommend it❤️ #Good place for sunset #Beautiful sunset #Natural scenery #Geological Park #Meizhou Island

Putian City is located in the central coastal area of ​​Fujian Province and was once the commercial center of central and southern Fujian. Meizhou Island at the mouth of the bay is the location of the world-famous Mazu Temple, the goddess of peace, and the birthplace of Mazu culture.

Very nice foods. Must try 👍👍

Meizhou Island, the hometown of Mazu, is steeped in religious beliefs and island charm. Upon arrival, a visit to the Meizhou Mazu Ancestral Temple is a must, immersing you in the solemn atmosphere and vibrant incense offerings. Along the way, you'll enjoy the ocean-view trail, where the ocean breeze is a truly relaxing experience. The island's pristine white sands are perfect for strolling or taking photos. The local seafood is fresh and delicious, and not to be missed. We recommend staying overnight to witness the breathtaking sunrise.

On the west coast of the Taiwan Strait, nestled amidst emerald waters, lies an island. This is not only the birthplace of Mazu culture, but also a serene paradise, a blend of natural wonders and cultural heritage. Upon stepping foot on this shore, the first thing that strikes your eye is the kilometer-long golden beach. The soft white sand gleams in the sun, while the crystal-clear waters gently lap against the shore, whispering a thousand-year-old story. Strolling along, the sea breeze caresses your face, the gentle lapping of waves gently rustles, and all worldly worries instantly dissipate.

At the Putian Railway Station, find the K09 bus at the road station on the right-hand side. The journey to "Wenjia Wharf" takes about an hour, and you can scan to pay the fare upon boarding. You can pre-purchase ferry tickets and entrance tickets (total ¥125) via the "Meizhou Island Ferry" mini-program. Once on the island, there are no additional fees except for renting vehicles, dining, or accommodation. However, Taiwanese visitors using a Mainland Travel Permit for Taiwan Residents (Taiwan Compatriot Permit) only need to pay for the ferry ticket, which must be purchased on-site at the Wenjia Wharf ticket office. The ferry ride takes just 15 minutes. Upon arrival on the island, you will immediately encounter people offering motorbike rentals, which make getting around the island more convenient. Attractions on the island include: Meiyu Chaoyin (Meizhou Island Sound of the Tides), Mazu Temple, Rainbow Road, Golden Coast Beach, Goose Tail Divine Stone Park, and more. Goose Tail Divine Stone Park features coastal erosion landscapes such as Feiji Cave, Moon-Gazing Heavenly Dog, and Dragon Cave Listening to the Tides, where you may spend more time exploring. Be mindful of the strong sea breeze and intense sunlight—remember to apply sunscreen and stay hydrated. Rainbow Road is a regular road painted with colorful designs; however, it can get busy with traffic, so exercise caution and avoid lingering too long. Mazu Temple is bustling with worshippers, but it is relatively quiet in the morning. From there, you can enjoy a panoramic view of the densely packed, staggered houses in the surrounding area.

The town has many cost-effective hotels and inns to choose from. 🚗 Transportation • External Transport: You can take the high-speed train directly to Xiapu Station, convenient from Fuzhou, Xiamen, and other places; or fly to Fuzhou Changle International Airport and then transfer by train or bus to Xiapu. • Internal Transport: Attractions are scattered, so renting a car with a driver is recommended, costing 400-600 RMB/day, allowing flexible itinerary planning; you can also rent electric scooters but pay attention to battery range—choose models with over 80 km range; some attractions have buses but with infrequent service and longer travel times. 🍱 Food Recommendations • Taikang Road Food Street: The concentrated area for Xiapu cuisine, with a wide variety of seafood at affordable prices. Recommended dishes: razor clams, small sea snails, Minnan-style porridge, and sour and spicy sea anemone soup (a local hidden favorite). • Fuding Pork Slices: Tender meat with a sour and spicy flavor, a common street snack in Xiapu. • Sweet Potato Cups: Made from glutinous rice and sweet potato, soft and sweet in taste. • Sansha Snacks: Various specialty pastries and seafood pancakes worth trying. ❌ Pitfall Avoidance Tips • Always check the tide schedule in advance; tides greatly affect the tidal flat scenery, and many beautiful views disappear at high tide! • May to September is the fishing ban season; seafood prices rise and varieties are fewer. • If not self-driving, be cautious about choosing remote guesthouses as transportation can be inconvenient. • Photography groups often rush to secure spots as early as 4 AM; if you want to avoid the rush, consider visiting during off-peak times. 📌 Travel Tips • Xiapu is quite humid, with afternoon showers common; remember to carry an umbrella and sun protection clothing. • When going to the beach, wear non-slip sandals for convenience; bring long-sleeve quick-dry shirts for sun protection and to handle temperature changes in the morning and evening. • Photography enthusiasts, remember to bring a telephoto lens for tidal flat shots; drone flights over Nanwan Oracle Bone inscriptions require prior approval. Friends, quickly save this guide and start a romantic seaside journey in Xiapu! 💕

#AugustDestinations2025 The very name of Ruiyun Mountain carries a poetic quality. Tall bamboos line the mountain path, clear springs flow along the rocks, and the occasional chime of bells echoes through the forest, like circles of visible silence. The ancient temple walls are lightly covered with moss, and the wooden doorknobs shine from being rubbed. Looking up, I see yellowish prayer flags, and looking down, I see pine needles falling on the edges of my shoes. By the time I reached the summit, the clouds were already approaching, and the wind pulled the hems of my clothes back, making the mountains and rivers seem even more distant. Sitting on the edge of a rock, drinking my kettle to the bottom, I suddenly understood the meaning of "clear": it's not emptiness, but rather a simplification of complexity. Ruiyun Mountain isn't about stunning grandeur; it strengthens in a gentle way—allowing you to replenish your strength in silence and correct your course in the distant view. On the way down, I passed a small tea stall, and the owner offered me a cup of hot tea. I breathed in the warm steam, feeling that my journey was worthwhile.

#Let'sTalkAboutTravel #Let'sTalkAboutTravel Those who believe in superstition must come and pay their respects. What do you get from paying respects? For me, it's peace of mind, happiness, and a lot of positive energy. The guide explained that everything in Hong Kong is built according to Feng Shui. Everything is believed to bring good fortune and wealth. After paying respects, I returned to Thailand and got a new job. I believe it very much. Most importantly, my mind is much stronger.

What particularly captivated me were the wooden Buddha statues and figures, their expressions lifelike and vibrant, as if they could speak at any moment. This place not only showcases skill but also reflects the richness of culture. The beauty of craftsmanship lies not only in form but also in spirit, in the adherence to tradition and the pursuit of innovation.
