✅Transportation:
🚄For high-speed rail arrival, it's best to choose Quanzhou Station, closer to the city center
🛺Transportation in the ancient city area is a mix of walking and small electric cars
🚗Taxis are the main mode of transportation to the seaside
💙It's very difficult to thoroughly enjoy Quanzhou in three days. With many scattered attractions, choosing the ones you really want to visit is the most important!
Quanzhou Luoga Temple | The romantic and healing Buddha country on the sea where gods exist on the other shore
Thankful for coming to Quanzhou Luoga Temple💗, it's hard to describe the shock of the Buddha country on the sea in a few words, especially when looking at it from the other shore, the temple and the sea blend together to appear more sacred, grandeur and solemnity coexist, making people naturally settle down, quietly embracing the sea breeze and the Sanskrit sounds, the trip is worthwhile.
Quanzhou Luoga Temple, ticket🎫free
📍: Golden Coast, Shishi City, Quanzhou, Fujian
🚗: About 1h by taxi from Quanzhou city area (fare around 85r-100r), there is also a bus, but it takes about 2h-3h, actually renting a car in Quanzhou is more cost-effective, because each attraction is not too close, the fare is not much different from renting a car and it's more free~ (parking at the temple gate is 10r without time limit)
I know many people come to check in the same style as their current boyfriend~
Remember to bring a telephoto lens for better photos, a drone is even better~
I also want to remind everyone that some shooting positions require standing on the beach rocks, the rocks are covered with moss and are particularly slippery, I saw people slipping, be sure to pay attention to safety! Check the weather early and do a good job of sun protection, the sea breeze is strong, the onion dressing method is appropriate, dark clothes are more photogenic~ That's all
Seaside Temple
The Seaside Temple, also known as the Loga Temple, is located on the Gongyu Island on the east coast of the Golden Coast in Shishi. It is a rare seaside temple built by the sea, allowing you to feel the grandeur of Buddhism and the momentum of the sea. The mountains are hidden in the city, and the temple is hidden in the sea. It is known as the Loga Temple in the Buddhist Kingdom of Heaven and Sea, which is very beautiful.
Try to choose a sunny day to come here. The sea surrounds on all sides, and you enter from the bridge entrance. When you arrive, the tide has receded. If you can encounter it, it is extremely spectacular. The tranquility of the temple is different from the hustle and bustle of the city, which is very comfortable and pleasant.
In the summer at three or four o'clock, you can enjoy the panoramic view of the Loga Temple while strolling by the sea. At sunset, there is another beautiful scene. If you like to take pictures, you can come here.
There really is a temple on the sea, and it's in Quanzhou!
In Quanzhou, known as "half city of fireworks, half city of immortals", half is temples and half is daily life.
Quanzhou has never lacked temples ⛩️, but this sea temple is so special~
.
It is located on the Gold Coast, facing the Taiwan Strait, surrounded by the sea on three sides, and the waves keep hitting the reefs 🌊.
Only one stone bridge connects this side of the earth, and from the sky, it looks like a floating paradise in the sea~
.
The temple is entirely yellow, and at sunset 🌇, the sunlight shines on the temple.
From afar, it looks like a golden palace~
Can't help but say, Quanzhou people are really good at building temples!
.
Walking in every corner of the temple, you can feel surrounded by the ocean.
On one side is the sea, on the other side is the Pure Land of Buddha 🙏🏻.
Who would have thought that temples and the sea could be combined so charmingly!
.
🏯Luogas Temple
Suggestion to drive 🚗, it takes 1.5 hours from Xiamen.
Admission is free, and there is a parking lot at the entrance.
Next to it is a beach 🏖️, and there are quite a few locals playing here~
.
📷It is not recommended for everyone to stand on the platform to take photos. It is very dangerous to fall onto the rocks and the sea if you lose your balance.❌
The wind is a bit strong, it's better to come on a sunny day ☀️.
GlobeTrekkingAdventures_555 Shishi Gold Coast, where the most beautiful coastline of Quanzhou is located. From the Lunga Temple at the east end of the coast to the Guanyin statue in the South China Sea and then to the Sea World. You can step on the beach, listen to the sound of the sea, eat authentic food, and take a break from laziness.
Gold Coast Resort is located on the beachfront of Yongning Town, Shishi City, covering an area of 6,000 acres and a coastline of 12 kilometers. A 10-km-long 38-meter-wide cement avenue links her to the Shishi district. Here, the northwest of the Baogai Mountain is high in the sea, and the southeast is in the Taiwan Strait. In the scenic area, there are "viewing tide point sail palace island, Bibo white beach, Yulin original new sand embankment, strange stone Guanyin mountain". The scenic area is adjacent to Yongning Town in the west. Yongning is also known as Yucheng, which is the ancient town of Haiphong in Fujian.
Looking at the clouds in the sky in the yard is unpredictable, or go to the beach to see it. Its not too late, its a good weather, the golden sunshine hits the green lawn nearby, and the lighthouse in the distance leads the direction of the voyager.
This section was taken on the beach on the right side of Guanyin Mountain. There are a few simple tables, and even a run-down boat docked on the beach. It took a few simple chairs and it looks like summer. Its very comfortable to drink beer in the sea at night.
I have been to Guanyinshan many times, every time it will give me a different surprise, but I never thought about why it is called Guanyinshan.
I realized that I was taking a boat out of the sea and looking back. The whole mountain here is like a lying Guanyin. Yongning, in the southeast coast of Quanzhou, Fujian Province, has a 600-year-old ancient acropolis. The entire Yongning is surrounded by the sea on three sides and faces Taiwan across the sea. It is a coastal defense area.
Guanyin Mountain, in fact connected to the famous Golden Coast, but few people know. The most special thing about Guanyin Mountain is the diversity of the coastline. From the weather fossils to the fishing port, from the beach to the air-raid shelter, standing on the mountain and looking at the Taiwan Strait, it is the ultimate beauty.
Yongning Ancient City|Shishi
Yongning Ancient City In fact, it is not too big to say that it is small or small. If you go shopping and eat and have a holiday, you may have to hold an event and it will take 2-3 hours to walk. There will be a lot of special southern Fujian snacks along the way, such as the fist mother egg yolk beef simmered grass and the like. When the ancient city walked in and walked for a few hundred meters, there was a big square. The square was facing a temple. On the right hand side of the temple, there were many buildings in southern Fujian. The architectural style is very particular and the photos are OK.
Auntie Tower and Liusheng Stone Tower, please call me Tuta Female King. The Guru Tower is located in Baogai Mountain, Shishi City. It is a hollow stone tower built with granite. It is the navigation mark of the sea-going ship in the past. The tower has five floors and 21 meters high. It is particularly embarrassing because of the mountain. The Auntie Tower is backed by Quanzhou Bay and faces the Taiwan Strait. It is about the lock of the water and the southeast.

Quanzhou Shishi Wetland Park | Encounter golden rice waves.
| Encounter golden rice waves. Quanzhou Shishi Wetland Park is stunning after the start of winter! 😍
The rice here is ripe, and the vast golden rice fields are like a golden ocean, with waves of wheat rolling in the wind, creating a breathtaking scene. 🌾🌾
Enter the wetland park, walk straight along the main entrance, and pass through the lotus pond to see this charming rice field. The open view here is perfect for taking photos 📷. Whether standing on the ridge or using the rice field as a background, you can easily capture a cinematic feel. Moreover, from a bird's-eye view, the crisscrossing rice fields, distant mountains, and villages form a beautiful pastoral picture.
In addition to enjoying the rice fields, there are many fun places in the park. You can stroll along the trails and feel the tranquility and beauty of nature; you can also see the remaining lotus in the pond, which has a unique charm; the fish in the pond swim happily, full of vitality.
You can also take aerial photos here, but be careful of the many birds to avoid collisions. However, remember that you can only walk on the ridges in the rice fields and not enter them, as there are guards nearby. Recently, the rice fields have also started to be harvested!
Shishi Wetland Park is a treasure trove of check-in spots this season. Quickly invite your friends to experience this beautiful rural scenery, or you'll have to wait another year after the harvest! 💕
Quanzhou | I visited Quanzhou twice and only took 9 photos.
| I visited Quanzhou twice and only took 9 photos. I visited Quanzhou twice this year, but unfortunately, both times I encountered a typhoon, and the sky was always overcast. Fortunately, the red walls and orange tiles of old Quanzhou are warm colors even without sunlight.
-
1️⃣ The red wall of Kaiyuan Temple. I saw many travel photographers standing in front of the red wall to take close-up shots. Actually, if you take a step back and include the roof of Kaiyuan Temple with its Minnan architectural style, it will look even better.
2️⃣ The Song Dynasty Twin Pagodas of Kaiyuan Temple. This is a medium telephoto aerial shot.
3️⃣ The rooftop of West Street. Many cafes or restaurants along the street have rooftops or window views facing Kaiyuan Temple, where you can overlook the bustling crowds and gaze at the twin pagodas.
4️⃣ The rooftop of Rezen Hotel.
5️⃣ Aerial view of Zhongshan Middle Road. I really like this arcade pedestrian street, with the clock tower in the distance.
6️⃣ Aerial view of Chaotianmen. The orange rooftops of old Quanzhou are truly beautiful!
The above 6 places are all in the old city of Quanzhou, and you can explore them on foot or by riding a shared bike.
-
7️⃣&8️⃣ Luojia Temple built on the sea. Before the typhoon arrived, the white waves crashed against the temple's embankment, creating a stunning aerial view! The location for photo 7 is on the rocks next to the Guanyin statue on the west side. Be sure to check the tide times in advance, as the rising tide may cause waves to hit the rocks.
9️⃣ Wulin Traditional Village. In addition to traditional Minnan architecture, Western-style buildings also make great photos.
-
What I like most about Quanzhou is that West Street and Zhongshan Road Arcade Street intersect at the clock tower. The two different styles converge here without any sense of incongruity, adding to the charm of the ancient city. Perhaps this is the unique charm of Quanzhou as the starting point of the Maritime Silk Road and a place where Eastern and Western cultures blend.

Quanzhou Luojiashi Photo Guide
📸Here's a comprehensive photo guide for Quanzhou Luojiashi to help you take great photos! 💖
📍Location: No. 943, Golden Coast, Yongning Town, Shishi City, Quanzhou City, Fujian Province
🎫Ticket: Free 🆓🤑
🚌Transportation: It takes about 1 hour to get there by taxi from downtown Quanzhou. You can also drive there. There is a parking lot at the entrance, and the parking fee is about CNY 10.
💡Best time to take photos:
The best time is from 4:00 pm to 5:30 pm. The light is soft during this period, the sea is bluer, and if you are lucky enough to encounter a high tide, you can take a beautiful picture of the temple floating on the sea. Of course, Luojiashi has different scenery at different times. The tranquility in the morning and the afterglow in the evening have their own characteristics.
📸Photo spots:
1. "Wind" and "Rain" archway: The arch bridge at the entrance and the side doors on both sides, with "Wind" and "Rain" written on them, are the same spots as Li Xian! The implication is very good, and you can take great photos no matter how you shoot.
2. Near the Guanyin stone statue: There is a Guanyin stone statue opposite Luojiashi. Standing on the reef under the Guanyin stone statue, you can take photos with Luojiashi in the same frame. This is the best photo spot. You can also use the characters to blur the foreground and take photos with Guanyin in the same frame, which has a sense of sacred beauty.
3. Along the bell tower: Standing along the bell tower, you can take pictures of the sea and the corner of the building, which is a very magnificent picture, and you can take great photos casually.
4. Reef area: After the tide recedes, you can stand on the reef, with the temple building or the vast sea as the background, which is very photogenic. However, pay attention to the tide time, do not stay on the reef for too long during high tide, and pay attention to safety.
5. Temple scenery: The buildings in the temple are also very beautiful. You can take some close-ups, such as the corner of the building, the "Buddha" on the wall, the twelve zodiac stone carvings, etc., which can reflect the cultural heritage and artistic atmosphere of the temple.
6. Distant view: Standing on the beach of the Golden Coast, with the temple, beach, and waves as the background, it is super beautiful and very photogenic! You can also use the reefs of Gongyu Island as the foreground to take more layered photos.
👗Dress suggestions:
It is recommended to wear simple and solid color clothes. Brightly colored clothes such as white and red will be more outstanding against the blue sea and yellow temple buildings. You can also choose new Chinese-style clothing, which is more in line with the atmosphere of the temple.
⚠️Precautions:
The temple is a religious place. Please respect local religious customs, keep quiet, and do not make loud noises. The wind is relatively strong by the sea, so pay attention to sun protection and wind protection measures.
Come to Quanzhou Luojiashi, feel the unique charm of this sea temple, and take your own life photos! 💕

"Logar Temple: A Buddhist Kingdom by the Sea"
"Logar Temple: A Poetic Legend on the Sea"
At the place where the sea meets the sky, there is a dreamlike existence - Logar Temple.
When the sea breeze gently brushes your face, it feels like a gentle touch from nature, bringing the breath of the ocean, intoxicating. The waves are surging, hitting the coast, and the ripples are like a magnificent symphony played by the sea. Looking far away, the sea is boundless, blending with the horizon, making it difficult to tell where the end of the sea is and where the sky begins.
In this picturesque scenery, Logar Temple is like a bright pearl. It stands quietly on the sea, like a wise man, watching this vast ocean. This is a temple built by the sea, full of unique charm.
Walking along the beach, accompanied by the sea breeze, you can feel the gift of nature while walking and stopping. Look at the ebb and flow, like the ups and downs of life, sometimes surging, sometimes quiet. When the sea rises, the surging waves bring endless power and hit the coast; when the tide recedes, it leaves a quiet beach, as if telling the story of the years.
"Temples are built on the sea, and the sea is seen in the temple." Logar Temple perfectly integrates the Buddhist kingdom with the world. On the one hand, it is a solemn and sacred Buddhist world, with curling incense, melodious bells, and the compassionate face of the Buddha statue that calms the mind; on the other hand, it is a world full of fireworks, the sound of the sea, the cry of seabirds, and the laughter of people. Interweave together to form a vivid picture of life.
In Logar Temple, you can find a quiet corner, quietly listen to the sound of the waves, feel the sea breeze, and let your thoughts float freely in this vast world. You can also walk into the Buddha Hall, pray devoutly in front of the Buddha statue, and seek inner peace and comfort.
Logar Temple, a temple built on the sea, is not only a religious holy place, but also a place where the soul is baptized. It uses its beauty and tranquility to tell the legendary story of the sea and humans, the Buddhist kingdom and the world.
