How a Female College Student Played in Quanzhou in 2005: The Ultimate Guide is Here

🌊Recommended Sea Viewing Route Day 1️⃣ Xiaozuo Windmill → Huinu Folk Park → Chongwu Ancient City → Yusha Bay Day 2️⃣ Shishi Golden Coast → Luojia Temple → Guanyin Mountain → Hongta Bay . 🏞️Travel Tips: ❶ Huian Chongwu Ancient City No need to spend 45 yuan on the ticket; you can enter the ancient city wall through a small city gate called Shuiguanmen. From the city wall, you can overlook the entire ancient city scenery. Also, one of China’s most beautiful coastlines, the “Chongwu Coast,” offers stunning views. . ❷ Huinu Folk Park The original birthplace and settlement area of the famous Huian women. You can watch the tides, sunrise, and sunset while leisurely enjoying the fishing village scenery. Best to visit on a sunny evening. Standing at the highest point, you can see the entire fishing village, beautiful and peaceful. . ❸ Xiaozuo Windmill Be sure to go when the weather is good for great photos. The island’s reefs and huge windmills are very impressive. This place feels like a small fishing village untouched by the world, not commercialized. Transportation to the island is inconvenient, and there are few tourists, so self-driving is recommended. . ❹ Yusha Bay The biggest surprise is discovering this niche travel spot— Quanzhou’s “Anaya,” with the entire coastline designed with strong artistic vibes. It features coffee shops, restaurants, libraries, art sculptures, and other unique attractions. . ❺ Hongta Bay The beach here is very photogenic and a great place for swimming and water activities in summer. The sand is fine and soft, with many seaside swings and pine trees providing cool shade. . ❻ Luojia Temple A temple built on the sea with eye-catching orange-yellow buildings. Visually stunning, and it’s a great spot for taking photos. . 🪭Quanzhou Specialties Anxi Tieguanyin tea, oolong tea, longan, Anhai soil bamboo jelly, Honglai chicken feet, Yongchun aged vinegar, tangerines, various preserved fruits and tribute candies, etc. 🪭Quanzhou Cuisine Bafanglin Quanzhou Restaurant, Auntie’s Chicken Rack, Grandma’s Meat Rice Dumplings, handmade rice cakes, soil bamboo jelly, peanut soup, taro cakes, noodle soup, four-fruit soup, Longyan pickled chicken feet, fried vinegar meat rolls, etc. . ⚠️Tips 🔹Quanzhou is hot in summer; now is just right, neither too cold nor too hot. 🔹Try to stay near the edge of the beach and avoid undeveloped areas.

Luojia Temple

When it comes to Shishi, Fujian, many people immediately think of delicious food and beaches. This tour takes you directly to Shishi's hidden spiritual spot: the underwater Buddhist temple, Luojia Temple! Nestled on the coast, the entire temple is not only incredibly spiritual, but also blends seamlessly into the serene sea and skyscape, making it a breathtaking photo op. On a clear day, it's even more breathtakingly ethereal. Recommended Attractions: 1️⃣ Luojia Temple 📍Address: Binhai East Road, Shishi City, Quanzhou City, Fujian Province ⏰Open year-round, 24 hours a day Located by the sea, Luojia Temple offers a truly unique experience. On clear days, the temple's roof and gates shimmer in the sunlight, with breathtaking ocean views behind. A fusion of modern architecture and traditional Chinese style, the temple's waterfront meets the tranquil river, creating a striking underwater scene. We highly recommend spending time in the square in front of the temple to savor the sea, the sacred architecture, and the vibrant cultural atmosphere—you'll never want to stop snapping photos. Most tourists just pass by quickly, but a careful exploration of every corner of the temple reveals many surprises—detailed carvings, quiet prayer corners, and, especially on sunny days, the vibrant colors create a vibrant, photogenic atmosphere. The temple is open year-round, allowing even novice travelers to visit or meditate at any time. Special Tip: Visit in the morning or afternoon; the temple and coastline are particularly spectacular in the sunlight, and the crowds are minimal. Food & Transportation Tips 1. There are local snack stalls at the entrance of Luojia Temple. I recommend trying the Shishi Shacha Beef to refuel before continuing your exploration. 2. From downtown Shishi, you can take a city bus directly to Binhai East Road. From there, walk a five-minute walk to the temple entrance. Transportation is very convenient, and the scenic area is free and open all day, so there's no need to worry about time limits. Additional Tips: - Sunscreen and sunglasses are highly recommended on sunny days. The beach is sunny but windy, making for excellent photography. - For a less crowded experience, avoid the holiday crowds. If you prefer a tranquil atmosphere, take a stroll along the beach. The view of the temple reflected in the water is truly soothing. Conclusion Shishi's Luojia Temple is a truly beautiful fusion of Buddhist exploration and natural exploration. Not only can you experience the aura of cultural architecture, but the soothing presence of the vast ocean is also a welcome relief. If you're visiting Shishi, consider planning a half-day or full-day trip to enjoy the underwater Buddhist temple on a sunny day, capturing both modern and traditional beauty! #ShishiSoulHealing #LuojiaTempleWaterBuddhistTemple #FujianCheck-In Spots #CoastalTemple #SunnyDayTravel
