    The scenery is beautiful, especially the various large rocks. We started hiking from Couple Peaks and, except for the highest peak, we basically covered the entire area in six hours. Those with large bellies should avoid the narrow gorges and various caves.

    The combined ticket for Baishuiyang and Yuanyangxi is valid for two days, a 20-minute drive from both locations. We recommend entering the Yuanyangxi scenic area from the entrance with the bridge on the right. Starting from Laba Waterfall, we'll continue downhill to the Lianxintai-Lanshengtai route, where we'll return. This is where the scenic highlights are. After returning, we'll walk a short distance to the other route to see wild macaques before returning. We recommend visiting Baishuiyang in the afternoon; the water is cooler in the morning, and the 75 yuan unlimited surfing is fun! Trying to see all the attractions listed on the guide map for both scenic areas and enjoy the water in one day would be a stretch, so we recommend two days.

    The waterfall is absolutely stunning, it feels like a place where immortals dwell. No wonder it's the place where Liu Bowen once stayed. It's so beautiful! I wish I could stay in the scenic area for a few days. I look forward to visiting again. The scenic area is accessed from the north gate, and going down the stairs is not tiring at all.

    There are many products in the Fujian Provincial Museum, and they are all very beautiful. The entire area is quite large, so if you go there, you are advised to bring some water. Some of the products there are very exquisite and in line with the audience's aesthetic taste. They have a strong sense of history. It is recommended that people of all ages come to visit.

    As dusk drifts over the Xing'an River, the alleyways of Shangxiahang, steeped in the colors of the Ming and Qing dynasties, become bathed in a smoky indigo. Lanterns sway atop the saddle walls, smudged across the black tiles and white walls into a flowing scroll. The river reflects the fleeting light of the century-old commercial port, as if time were gently grinding ink on bluestone slabs.

    Minyue Water Town is a fantastic place to visit! Minyue Water Town is truly a place so fun you'll never want to leave. Stepping into this ancient water town feels like stepping back a thousand years to the Minyue era. Winding waterways crisscross the town, with quaint little boats gently swaying on the emerald waters. A boat trip offers picturesque scenery that will leave you breathless. On both sides of the streets, rows of antique buildings stand side by side, adorned with exquisite wood carvings, brick carvings, and stone carvings, showcasing the profound cultural heritage of Minyue. Shops are filled with a dazzling array of unique goods, making it hard to resist stopping to browse. Furthermore, the water town frequently hosts various folk activities, such as lively temple fairs and spectacular performances, allowing visitors to fully experience the unique charm of Minyue culture.

    Nanji Islands: One of the ten most beautiful islands in China, the island ecology is pristine and pure, the sand is soft and golden, and the secret blue hole hides clear water. It is suitable for travelers who pursue niche and in-depth ocean experiences. However, transportation to the island is greatly affected by the weather, so advance planning is required.

    The terraced fields here have a serene and peaceful beauty! I went early in the morning, and it wasn't crowded. It's a good option for those who want to see the sunrise! Staying halfway up the mountain makes it very convenient to get there! Strolling through the terraced fields felt refreshing and invigorating; I felt so free and happy! The kids also loved it. Aside from refusing to have their pictures taken, they enjoyed wandering around, connecting with nature, and appreciating the beautiful scenery. It was a wonderful family trip!
