The Zhongshan Middle Road night market and temple in Quanzhou? This journey is so unique! Not only can you take pictures of the city's beautiful scenery, but you can also find some places that make you feel chill and authentic. From the modern city, you can step through the niche streets and experience the charm of the blending of Chinese and Western cultures🤩. This guide will help you see all the night markets and temples on Zhongshan Middle Road in Quanzhou. Itinerary attractions recommended inventory ⭐ Quanzhou Zhongshan Middle Road Night Market Reason for recommending the night market: Authentic and warm! Night stall, authentic snacks (shacha noodles, oyster pancakes, fish ball soup), reasonably priced and fresh. There are also many handicrafts, toys and local trendy items slowly chosen at the night market, suitable for night owls and hipsters. Address: Zhongshan Middle Road, Quanzhou City, Fujian Province Opening Hours: Usually 18:00-23:30 (recommended busiest after 19:00) 🏮 Quanzhou City God Temple There are several temples near the night market, including the Chenghuang Temple and the Guandi Temple. Address: Zhongshan Middle Road, Leicheng District, Quanzhou City, Fujian Province Open: 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m Real insights/itinerary Tips practical supplement This time I stepped into the Zhongshan Middle Road Night Market, the biggest feeling was not only the human touch, but also realized that it is not just food, many handicrafts and temple culture are worth digging into. If you don't have to worry about getting lost when going to the night market, just go straight along the main road. Tip: The night market is crowded, it is recommended to bring a wallet and backpack keep in front, night market food can try a variety of small portions. The night view of the temple is actually very beautiful, and in some places there are free prayer cards or hand-painted guardians that you can take home. Conclusion: Transportation/Food/Tips 🚕Quanzhou travel: It is convenient to take a taxi or Didi in the city, there are several parking lots near the night market (it is recommended to walk easier to experience the whole process). 🍲Food recommendation: Shacha noodles must be tried, you can choose oysters and fish balls, fish ball soup 2 people 1 bowl is not too much, do not be afraid to eat not all. There are authentic old-fashioned bean curd and taro ball shops near the night market. The dessert is the perfect ending! 📍Night safety: There are administrators in the temple, keep valuables well, carry a small amount of cash enough to use. Finally, when visiting Quanzhou, you should try to follow the local customs, chat with locals, and experience the authentic night view. Looking forward to bringing you local tips from different places next time! #Vancouver #Quanzhou Night Market #Zhongshan Middle Road #Food Guide #Temple Culture
