Quanzhou Ancient City Slow Life

Winter in Quanzhou is a sun-kissed ancient city. The light and shadows filtering through the branches of the coral tree outline the starting point of the thousand-year-old Maritime Silk Road. The hustle and bustle of West Street carries the warmth of everyday life, while around the corner, there is always a quiet place waiting for you. Location Encounter Wulan Meisu quietly resides on the second floor at No. 12-1 Tumen Street, Licheng District. It feels like a microcosm of the ancient city—downstairs is the lively West Street, but turning around, you can have your own peaceful time. The thousand-year-old ginkgo tree of Kaiyuan Temple, the exotic charm of Qingjing Mosque, and the incense smoke of Guandi Temple are all on your walking map. Travel Guide · From Jinjiang Airport: Take a taxi for about 40 minutes directly; or take bus K602 to "Licheng District Government Station," then transfer to the ancient city electric cart for about 5 minutes · From Quanzhou High-Speed Rail Station: Take bus No. 3 to "Zhonglou Station" and get off right there; taxi ride about 20 minutes crossing the old and new city · Roaming inside the ancient city: Walking is recommended or try the special "Xiaobai" electric cart, every alley hides surprises Warm Winter Preparation In December, Quanzhou’s daytime is a gentle 20°C, and the night cools to about 15°C. A textured sweater paired with a light jacket lets you blend into the ancient city atmosphere while handling the day-to-night temperature difference. Be sure to bring moisturizing skincare and sunscreen—the winter sun here carries the bright sincerity of the southern land. Unique Features • The rooftop garden café is most pleasant on winter afternoons, with sunlight passing through greenery casting mottled shadows on vintage floral tiles • Every corner has a story: vintage-style interior design, from rattan chandeliers to old-fashioned gramophones, every spot is an inspiration for photos • At dusk, the stargazing terrace shows dual charm: one side offers the charming city night view of the ancient city, the other side reveals a tranquil starry sky • Wednesday night puppet shows perform millennia-old intangible cultural heritage at your fingertips amid the scent of tea • The audio-visual room plays classic Minnan dialect films, perfect for sharing nostalgic moments with friends • On clear evenings, the rooftop sunset paints the entire ancient city in honey tones—a gentle gift unique to December Here, you get more than just a night's rest; you get a lifestyle immersed in the ancient city. In the last month of 2023, come to Wulan Meisu and let the warm Minnan winter heal the fatigue of the whole year.
