Meiyu Chaoyin Scenic Area is one of the 24 scenic spots in Putian, located at the northern end of Meizhou Island. It is named for its unique landforms of wind erosion and sea erosion, which sound like the sound of orchestral music and bells and drums under the action of tidal surges. "Since ancient times, the water music of Gongshang has been passed down, almost like the roar of dragons in wind and rain." Literati and poets of all dynasties have left many poems praising it. Meiyu Chaoyin has more than 20 scenic spots of various sizes. Among them: the barking of the dog at the sun, the goshawk playing with mice, and the young swallows spreading their wings are fascinating; the gathering of heroes, the pillar of the south sky, and the stone waves are full of mythical colors; the Dragon and Tiger Beach composed of the Dragon Teng Stone, the Tiger Ju Stone, the Guanlan Pavilion, and the Lingbo Qu Bridge is magnificent.Putian · 42.7 km from downtown

I didn't have high expectations for this attraction before, but after hearing from the local B&B that I could watch the sunrise, I rushed here quickly. The area of ​​the scenic spot is not large, but the various shapes of stones here still make me feel different.

Feiji Cave: A natural masterpiece among the coastal wonders of Meizhou Island. Located within the Ewei Shenshi Park in the Meizhou Island National Tourist Resort, Feiji Cave is a breathtaking sea-erosion wonder, a true masterpiece of nature. Entering it feels like stepping into an ancient mythical world, where jagged rocks and the turbulent blue sea interplay in a shimmering, primal, and majestic force. Named for its resemblance to the ancient weapon "trident," Feiji Cave is a natural sea cave formed by years of erosion. The cave's steep entrance, with its gray-brown, textured rock, resembles the mouth of a giant beast, gaping open to meet the crashing waves. At low tide, the cave offers a close-up view, revealing the exposed reef floor, covered in algae and occasionally swarming with small crabs, creating a breathtaking ecological experience. At high tide, the crashing waves create a thunderous roar, a breathtaking spectacle. Even more captivating is its surroundings. Feiji Cave sits on a cliffside cliff at the southern foot of Ewei Mountain, nestled against a rugged rock formation and overlooking the vast East China Sea. From the observation deck adjacent to the cave, panoramic views of the entire reef and azure sea are unobstructed, creating a perfect spot for photography enthusiasts. Especially at dawn or dusk, when sunlight slants across the rock faces, golden light shimmers across the waves, creating a magical interplay of light and shadow. As a sacred site for Mazu culture, Feiji Cave is imbued with legend. Locals call it the "Sea-Suppressing Halberd," symbolizing its protection against evil and island destruction. The blend of natural wonders and cultural beliefs elevates this site beyond mere scenery to a spiritual depth. A visit to Meizhou Island is a must-see for Feiji Cave—not only a geological marvel, but also a poetic dialogue between mountain and sea.

Quiet place It looks like there will be drama performances during the holidays, but I was on a last-minute trip and didn't check the performance list in advance I saw some kids playing with firecrackers and stuffing them into the cracks of the stone at the base of the building. It was so dangerous. I should have dissuaded them more😢But I just asked them to play farther away

Putuo Mountain in Putian is near the ancient city of Putuo on the north bank. It is not very high. It takes about 20 minutes to walk along the main road. There are various strange mountains and rocks, exquisite statues and seal carvings. The scenic area is clean, and even the sanitation is quite unique. From the top of the mountain, you can overlook Meizhou Bay. The scenery is pleasant and the view is wide. It is a scenic spot worth visiting!

Xianshuiyang is located in the upper reaches of Jiuxianxi, a tributary of the Minjiang River, at the junction of Xianyou County and Dehua County in Putian City, Fujian Province. It is more than 871 meters above sea level. After geological investigation, it was preliminarily confirmed as a rare shallow water square in the world. It is composed of a whole piece of brown flat stone skin, extending 615 meters along the stream. The stone surface is as smooth as a grindstone, without any gravel, and the stream bed is flat. In addition, the stream flows slowly and the water depth is less than half a meter, making it like a natural water pedestrian street, which can be called a wonder of the waters in central Fujian. Xianshuiyang is located in Caoyang natural village, Fengshan Village, Xiyuan Township, Xianyou County, Putian City, Fujian Province, with an altitude of more than 871 meters. It extends to Daxi, Caoyang natural village to Jiuxianxi Xiwei Reservoir in the east, Daxi in the west, Jiuzuo Temple and Fengding Village in the south, and Jiuxianxi Xiwei Reservoir in the north, with a planned control area of ​​0.6 square kilometers. After geological investigation, it was initially confirmed that it is a rare shallow water square in the world. It is composed of a whole piece of brown flat stone skin, extending 615 meters along the stream, like a natural water pedestrian street, with a developable area of ​​more than 150,000 square meters. It is a flat bedrock stream bed comparable to Baishuiyang. The stone surface is as smooth as a whetstone, clean and free of gravel; the water is evenly distributed on the rocky riverbed, only reaching the ankles. The clear water is shining under the sun, which is amazing. It is indeed a fairyland on earth, so it is called "Xianshuiyang".

Tianfei Hometown Site Park is located in Dongcai Village, Meizhou Island. To the northeast, you can see the Mazu Ancestral Temple, which is about 2 kilometers away. To the north, you can see Meizhou Bay and Wenjia Ferry Terminal. From the Mazu Ancestral Temple, you can see the Peace Tower in Mazu Hometown. The Mazu Peace Tower carries people's good wishes, hoping that everyone will be safe and auspicious under the protection of Mazu! We came to Tianfei Hometown Site Park from the "Meiyu Chaoyin" scenic spot and saw a sign standing in front of the archway. Due to the internal upgrading and renovation of the Mazu Origin Museum and the construction of the second phase of Tianfei Hometown Site Park, the entire park was temporarily closed. It was a pity!

If you ask me to recommend a place to visit in Putian City, I will definitely recommend you to visit the Sakyamuni Pagoda. The Shezuo Pagoda has a long history. It was found in the Southern Song Dynasty, and there are many very beautiful stone carvings on the tower. Friends who like stone carvings and stone carving art cannot miss this pagoda.
