Travel Guide | Meizhou Island🚗 Driving to Meizhou Island's Wenjia Wharf is a challenging experience. If you choose to drive, you might see congested traffic conditions on the map, and it's best to immediately find roadside parking. Sometimes local villagers will wave at you to help find a parking spot, although they may charge a fee of 20 yuan. This can avoid the trouble of entering Wenjia Wharf's parking lot, where it's often hard to find a spot. 😅 Make sure to verify your ID on the Meizhou Island ferry's public account the night before, to avoid delays in the queue the next day. Although the staff may not be very enthusiastic, it's only because they receive too many phone calls. The policy in February 2023 is half-price tickets plus a 45 yuan ferry fee, totaling 77 yuan. It's rare to enjoy such a discount at a 5A-level scenic spot. 📅 After disembarking, there are several modes of transportation to choose from. You can take a bus, with prices detailed in the picture below; or you can rent an electric sightseeing car for about 260 to 360 yuan, which is cost-effective for larger groups. Alternatively, you can rent an electric scooter to freely navigate the island's ring road, with prices ranging from 80 to 100 yuan, or even rent an electric mini-car similar to a Wuling Hongguang mini to fully enjoy the freedom. 🛵 Here's a suggested itinerary (for reference only): Start from Mazu Temple, pass through Rainbow Road, Meiyu Tidal Sound, Tianfei's Hometown, Lianchi Ao Beach (coastal cycling), Reclining Buddha Garden, Ping'an Li Flower Sea, Goose Tail Marine Erosion Geopark (watch the sunset), Golden Beach, and finally return to the starting point. 🗺 The climate on Meizhou Island is quite variable, so be sure to dress warmly. It's recommended to wear double layers, with a down jacket as the outer layer, especially at the end of February when the wind is particularly strong. 🧥 As for dining, there are many restaurants near Wenjia Wharf, and Putian braised noodles are only 15 yuan per serving, making it a cost-effective choice. 🍜 I hope this copywriting modification meets your needs! If there's anything else that needs to be adjusted, please let me know. 😊ExploreDreamDiscover

Mazuzu Temple Building Group is the previous temple for the central axis of the general planning layout, built on the mountain, formed a depth of 300 meters, the height difference of more than 40 meters of the main temple road. The complex consists of the archway, the mountain gate, the holy gate, the holy parents, the bell and drum tower, the bedroom hall, the Chaotian Pavilion (Prince Palace), the Ascension Building and other buildings.
The Mazu Temple on Weizhou Island was founded in 987 AD. It is both the ancestral temple of more than 3,000 Mazu temples in the world today and the spiritual home of more than 200 million Mazu believers worldwide. Not only that, but also, it is particularly worth mentioning that the Mazu Temple, hidden in Putian, Fujian, is the oldest Mazu Temple in the world.
Mazuzu Temple is located in the north of Weizhou Island. It takes a few minutes to walk from the pier. You can also take a bus or tour bus. There seems to be no taxi and Didi on Weizhou Island, but the bus can basically cover all attractions. The ancestral temple is built on the mountain, and it can also overlook the sea and the scenery is good.
Mazu was revered as a sea god, and the courts of all dynasties also awarded her honorary titles "Tianfei", "Tianhou", "the Virgin Mother of Heaven".

Now it is very magnificent and has the reputation of "the Potala Palace on the Sea". The main hall "Tianhou Palace" has a gold body of Mazu Zhangmu for thousands of years. The inscription "Shenzhaohai Table" hanging on it is the imperial pen of Emperor Yongzheng of the Qing Dynasty. Personal feeling - "Mazu Temple of Meizhou Island is the most worthwhile place to visit in Putian tourist attractions, which has a strong sense of history. Traffic - "Take a car to the dock, then take a speedboat or ferry to the island, the journey is about 15 minutes. The shuttle fare is 105 yuan and the ferry fare is 85 yuan. The Mazu Temple and the Tianfei Museum on the island no longer buy tickets. The Mazu Cultural Park costs 30 yuan. Purchase of tickets is a real-name system, which requires identity cards. If there is no ID card, the tickets can only be purchased by issuing identity certificates at the nearby police station. After purchasing tickets, I. D. check tickets directly and enter the waiting hall at 7:30, 8:30... every hour. When the ship arrives at the shore, there will be one way exit and two buses. The routes are : Meizhou Wharf-Mazuzu Temple-**********-Golden Beach-********-Goosetail Shrine Garden. The whole journey is two yuan per ticket.
