Despite encountering multiple crosswinds while crossing the 16.23-kilometer-long Taiwan Strait Bridge, we still made it to this scenic spot, the closest point on mainland China to Taiwan. We walked the first half, taking photos along the way, and took the shuttle bus back the second half.

The Lin Zexu Memorial Hall (usually referring to the main memorial hall in Fuzhou or Humen) is a prominent site commemorating Lin Zexu, a significant national hero in modern Chinese history. Here are some reasons why you should visit: 1. Significant Historical Significance A Symbol of National Heroism: Lin Zexu led the "Humen Opium Destruction" and is hailed as "the first person to open his eyes to the world." His struggle against the British and his anti-drug campaign marked a significant turning point in modern Chinese history. A Microcosm of Modern History: The memorial hall vividly depicts the history before and after the Opium War through artifacts and historical materials, helping visitors understand China's arduous journey from isolation to openness. 2. Extensive Collections and Exhibitions Precious Cultural Relics: On display are Lin Zexu's manuscripts, letters, a reconstruction of the Humen Opium Destruction scene, and Qing Dynasty official uniforms, some of which are national first-class cultural relics. Multimedia Interactive: Modern technology (such as AR and video) recreates historical scenes and enhances the visitor experience. 3. Architectural and Garden Features Traditional Architectural Aesthetics: The Fuzhou Memorial Hall boasts Qing Dynasty-style architecture and elegant garden layout, combining both monumentality and artistry. Rich Cultural Atmosphere: Many plaques and couplets are by renowned artists, showcasing a rich cultural heritage. 4. Patriotic Education Promoting the National Spirit: Lin Zexu's integrity, perseverance, and patriotism remain relevant today, making this a suitable place for students and families. Drug Prevention: The history of the Humen Opium Destruction offers practical lessons for anti-drug awareness campaigns. 5. Convenient Location Fuzhou Museum: Located in the heart of Fuzhou, it is surrounded by attractions such as the Three Lanes and Seven Alleys, offering a convenient location for combined tours. Humen Museum: Located near the Humen Fort ruins in Dongguan, it integrates with the Opium War ruins to create a historical themed tour. 6.

Summary: History enthusiasts, students, and ordinary tourists alike can deeply experience national integrity, absorb historical wisdom, and enjoy the dual immersion of cultural attractions.

It is worth taking the children there. There are many underwater species, the venue is quite large, and there are rich performances and activities. I didn't expect that there would be such a good underwater world in Yongtai. It can be said that it exceeded expectations.

Overall, only the main hall is worth going, and the secondary hall is not worth it. The main hall is very cost-effective, and the performance is also good, but there are too many people. The secondary halls are very small and old. For example, the Ice and Snow World, I bought a ticket but didn’t match the necessary cotton clothes. The clothes I rented were not thick enough. I came out after playing in it for a while because it was too cold! The Magic World is scary, the speedboat has to wait in line for a long time, and the Fantasy World is also very small, there is nothing fun.

Fuzhou West Lake Park, the oldest park in Fuzhou, is known as the "Pearl of Fujian." Originally built in the Jin Dynasty, it remains the city's core green lung after a millennium. Centered on West Lake, the park features shimmering blue waters, ancient bridges spanning its surface, and ancient buildings such as Wanzaitang and Kaihua Temple dotting the landscape, showcasing the elegance of Fujian-style gardens. In spring, willow branches sway in the water, and peach blossoms bloom in profusion; in autumn, withered lotus leaves reflect the moon, and the fragrance of osmanthus fills the air—each season offers its own unique beauty. Today, it remains a popular spot for citizens to stroll, boat, and relax, possessing both historical depth and vibrant life, a microcosm of Fuzhou's "city within a park" philosophy.

📍 Highlights: Blue miracle under the night sky After 8pm, the waves rushed to the beach with fluorescent blue ripples, like stars falling into the deep sea. When stepping on the waves barefoot, every step aroused fragmented blue light, as if stepping on the Milky Way. It is recommended to turn off the light of the mobile phone and watch it quietly for 3 minutes. After the eyes adapt, you will find that the whole bay is glowing faintly. Hidden surprises in the daytime The emerald glass sea in the daytime is also amazing! Rented a transparent kayak (50 yuan/hour) to float on the jelly-like sea surface, and the fish swimming underwater were clearly visible. There are mini tidal pools in the reef area, and small starfish and green-shelled crabs were found. 3 Immersive light and shadow experience The starry sky projection plank road set up in the scenic area exceeded expectations (free), and the 3D light and shadow projected the picture of whales swimming under the soles of the feet, forming a fantasy of virtual and real interweaving with the blue tears of real waves. ⚠️ Tips to avoid pitfalls: 7-9pm on weekends is a burst of traffic, and the best photography spots need to be reserved 1 hour in advance The price of seafood in the fishing house outside the scenic area is unclear, and the "Langlixian" food stall 800 meters east is recommended Do not buy the so-called "blue tears cultivation bottle" (actually fluorescent liquid) from the stall 📌 Exclusive strategy: ✔️ Wear light-colored clothes! White clothes are like a built-in soft light filter when taking photos in blue light ✔️ Bring a mini tripod (30 yuan/time for rental in the scenic area), and long exposure of more than 30 seconds can take pictures of the magical silk sea ✔️ Pay attention to the real-time fluorescence index of the scenic area’s official account, and the viewing effect is best above Lv.3 🌌 Postscript: When the crowd dispersed at 1 a.m., I lay on the still warm beach and watched the remaining fluorescence flickering like breathing. At that moment, I suddenly understood what the ancients said, "After being drunk, I don’t know that the sky is in the water, and the boat is full of clear dreams that press the stars." The romance of nature is always beyond imagination.

I hadn't been there yet, but when I got there I found that the small zoo brought a lot of fun to the children, the staff were very nice, and the animals were very cute. I will definitely go again when I have time.

It's much better than Bailiangou, which is hotter and more sunny, with steeper steps (not kid-friendly, especially for the elderly), and the scenery isn't quite as scenic. Qinglong Waterfall, while farther away, offers pristine vegetation and plenty of shade from trees, keeping you cool. The one-way journey is nearly 3 kilometers, with about a 1-kilometer climb of stairs (with beautiful scenery, up and down), followed by another 400-500 meters of flat ground (tandem bicycles are available for rent), and then another 1,300 meters of stairs to Qinglong Waterfall. We had strong legs, so the round trip took two hours (we didn't visit the Red Army Cave). You can take a bamboo raft to the pool of water in front of Qinglong Waterfall. After climbing a short (slippery) flight of stairs to the waterfall, the round trip costs 8 yuan per person. The raft driver was very friendly and took photos, so I think it's worth the experience (though I heard the price goes up to 10 yuan on holidays).
