🍓Fujian specialty recommendations:
1. Fuding old white tea
2. Fuding beef balls
3. Braised chicken wings
⚠️tips:
①It is recommended to climb the mountain in the morning, the side of Tongtian Cave and Hulu Cave is really crowded, hard to squeeze in
②Do not climb on rainy days, the scenery is better on sunny days, with a wide view, you can overlook the East Sea
③Do not carry a large backpack, it is difficult to get through the Narrow Path between Cliffs with a big bag
④Pay attention to sun protection, almost the entire journey is outdoors without cover
⑤You can rest at Baiyun Temple, the temple sometimes offers free meals, you can eat in the side courtyard after worship (boiled sweet potato vermicelli and soup rice noodles), be mindful not to waste and keep quiet😑
⑥Leave no trace hiking, protect the environment, do not leave trash

Mount Yushan Island, one of China's ten most beautiful islands, is truly stunning
A single island, a unique beauty. Today, I want to share with you a gorgeous island I recently visited - Mount Yushan Island.
Mount Yushan Island, formerly known as the Fuyao Archipelago, means 'land of fortune and beautiful jade.' Located in Fuding City, Fujian Province, Mount Yushan Island has long been known as the 'Pearl of the Sea.'
The scenery is enchanting, with colorful lakes, the Southern Heavenly Mountains, and clear skies at the edge of the sea.
Mount Yushan Island has been rated by 'China National Geographic' magazine as one of the top ten most beautiful islands in the country.
Here, there are endless grasslands and lazy sea breezes that allow you to escape the noise and the bustling crowds. Sitting by the coast, you can wait for a sunset accompanied by the evening breeze.

No less than Wugong Mountain!! Xiapu Dayu Mountain Island has a natural grassland of ten thousand mu
No less than Wugong Mountain!! I've been to many places in Xiapu Dayu Mountain Island, which has a natural grassland of ten thousand mu,
Dayu Mountain Island is one of the few places that are stunning at first sight,
and it's a small travel destination that I can't forget after coming back!
Direct transportation, you can enjoy the beautiful scenery without climbing the mountain for several hours!
1 Natural grassland, super super large, ten thousand mu grassland is not blowing, photos can not present, people in it are just a small point, because of the fast walking friends can not see the shadow!
② Natural lakes and the nearby East Sea, blowing the sea breeze and looking at the green grass all over the mountains, my sisters and I were really amazed, but we were at a loss for words, you know:-)
3 Dayu Mountain Island has a ring road, you can feel the fishing village at close range, and you can also camp

About romance, the sea occupies half of it
Come to Yushan Island, come to the land of relaxation, see the mountains and the sea, see yourself~
Yushan Island is very suitable for people who like the original ecology, like the sea, like natural landscapes, and want to relax themselves to travel. There are grasslands extending to the sea level, horses with bells 🔔 eating grass on the grassland, the beautiful combination of mountains, lakes, seas, and grasslands, as if in a comic world, without the hustle and bustle of the crowd, sitting on the top of the mountain and blowing the wind, it is very comfortable.

My Moments are blowing up! I've found the dreamy island of my dreams, not abroad but right here in China
👋 I'm here to share with you all my dreamy little island — Fuding Taimu Islands! 😍 Imagine soft grass under your feet, the sound of waves gently lapping at the shore by your ears, and a group of adorable cows and sheep strolling leisurely beside you. Isn't this just a paradise on earth? And guess what, the little houses here are all built on cliffs, offering an unbeatable sea view no matter where you look! 🏡🌊
To catch a glimpse of this scenery, all you need to do is take the 9 AM ferry from Shacheng to Taimu Island. ⛵ Remember, you'll also need to get up early the next day to catch the 9 AM ferry to leave this beautiful island. ⏰
Once you're here, don't miss the Umbrella Reef and the magical 'split-in-two' cliff walls that seem as if nature has cleaved a pathway through the rock with a mighty split. Walking on the cliff path, feeling the sea breeze, is truly delightful. 🍃
And if you're a fan of the night sky, hey, the nights here will definitely satisfy you! In summer, you can even see the magical blue tears and a starry sky so low it seems you could reach out and touch it. The starlight combined with the moist sea breeze is like a free nocturnal feast prepared by nature. 🌌✨
Now, let me tell you a few great spots for taking photos, if you want to snap a hot picture for your Moments, this is it!
1️⃣ Look across from the entrance of Haijiao No.1, those colorful little houses are unbelievably beautiful. Some still retain their most simple grey stone texture, but find the right angle, and you can capture the charm of the Wuyu villages.
2️⃣ Around 5:20 AM, stand at Haijiao No.1 to welcome the first ray of sunrise, and you'll see the whole sky light up as if ignited, plus the silhouette of the ferry, creating an indescribably beautiful scene.
3️⃣ Walk further into the island, about 200 meters later you'll see a high slope, immediately switch to photographer mode, and capture the tranquility and harmony of the entire fishing village.
What are you waiting for? Plan your summer quickly, don't forget to bring some dry food and seasickness medicine, and get ready for a feast for both the spirit and the taste buds! 😎🏖️💼

Zhaoming Temple Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Apr)
The ancient temple of a thousand years—Zhao Ming Temple, untouched by the dust of the mundane world
Zhao Ming Ancient Temple
-A thousand-year-old royal temple, gladly on my way~
About the Ancient Temple
Zhao Ming Temple is one of the famous ancient temples of a thousand years in Fuding, Fujian Province, known both domestically and internationally. Constructed in the first year of Datong during the Southern Dynasties' Liang Dynasty (527), it is said to have been commissioned by Prince Zhao Ming, Xiao Tong, and is named after the inscribed plaque it bears. Also, "a seven-level pagoda was built to suppress the warm and numb sensations." During the Song and Ming dynasties, it was destroyed by fire. In the thirteenth year of the Jiajing era of the Ming Dynasty (1534), the pagoda and temple were both repaired.
Despite the reconstruction, the temple as a whole retains its ancient charm—delicate and solemn—set atop the mountains, with a broad view~
The Zhao Ming Ancient Pagoda within the temple is also one of the earliest temple pagodas in Fujian Province, slightly tilted~
Each building is very special, different from the ancient temples in the south of the Yangtze River~ The chanting within the temple is ethereal, inspiring awe in the hearts of those who hear it~

So this is how Fujian people celebrate the New Year!!
I happened to arrive in Fuding on the first day of the Lunar New Year.
Fuding is really a hidden gem of a city.
Not too many tourists, but lots of delicious food! 😋
I came to the ancient temple of Zhaoming to pray for blessings on the first day of the New Year~
I was shocked as soon as I entered the door! 👀
The entire courtyard was full of people, hundreds of banquet tables had already been set up in front of the temple...
I found out that the New Year's custom here is to eat vegetarian food! Just find a seat and you can eat, of course, if you come late, you may miss some dishes🙈
I decisively brought my family to join the large dining crowd~
Because we arrived relatively late, we really sat at the table by the door of the main hall to eat, who understands this atmosphere of Buddha's light shining everywhere...🙏
Most of them are locals, and there are also people from the neighboring villages who came to eat.
There are not many tourists like us, the atmosphere is great with everyone gathered together!
I also tasted the Fuding specialty of frost taro, which is really delicious😋
It feels like eating New Year's Eve dinner at home, it's lively with many people, that's what New Year's is all about~

The Foodie Excursion
The tickets for the Mandarin Duck Grassland are too expensive
The scenery is very good
🎫Tickets: 💰60
I found that I have been climbing the mountain🧗♀️
Scenic area water 5 yuan
Although the scenery is very good, 60 yuan is not worth it. Because there are repeated charges for the projects inside🤨
We climbed the mountain very late, and then it was very dark on the mountain, and there was no light😢😢😢
I feel more and more that this 60 yuan is not worth it
I don't recommend bringing children, because they can't run at all😭😭😭
