【Romantic Ancient City | Temple on the Sea, Quanzhou has Carp】
Luojia Temple: A temple on the sea, about 40-50min away from Quanzhou city center, many people have written about it, so I won't repeat it.
Jinshang Bay Bridge: After visiting Luojia Temple, it's a place you really should pass by. It's on the way back from Luojia Temple to Quanzhou city center. You will pass by Jinshang Bay Bridge, where you can see a quite large colorful building. You can walk down to the beach opposite, there is a big ship, taking pictures is beautiful and comfortable (Figures 1, 2, 6)
Quanzhou Ancient City: Just for taking pictures and checking in, girls wear flowers, avoid the main road, walk into some alleys and you will meet quite a few nice local people. Generally from Tumen Street→Chengtian Zen Temple→Bell Tower→West Street... There are quite a few photo check-in points in the ancient city.

【Temple Prayers | People come and go, incense is abundant】
Guanyue Temple: Local friends say this temple is quite spiritual, so we went here first when we landed haha.
Kaiyuan Temple: Kaiyuan Temple is quite large and there are many visitors. We even encountered the annual Buddha's Day yesterday, the scene was huge, crowded with people, very spectacular!
Chengtian Zen Temple: A relatively quiet environment, the pagodas and Buddha statues inside have a long history, not many people take pictures here.
The above are the three that most people visit. When you are freely wandering in the ancient city, you can also occasionally see temples of different sizes, so the four words 'people come and go' really aptly describe Quanzhou. Praying is a daily routine here, people's faith gives this place a strong scent of incense.

【Old-fashioned Flavors | Half the city is fireworks, food is flavorful】
Cithorn Kafe: In the small alley next to Kaiyuan Temple, a quiet courtyard in the hustle and bustle, you can see the pagoda of Kaiyuan Temple, and also the World Heritage Exhibition Hall, bask in the sun and rest your feet, hand-brewed single product is serious about making coffee, not the kind of scenic area coffee machine is quite good.
A Ling Peanut Soup: Paired with fried dough sticks, it's so good
Jiaxiang Ginger Duck: We ate at the one opposite Chengtian Temple, the taste is good, it's diagonally opposite A Ling Peanut Soup.
Tiancuo Beef Restaurant: So fresh, so flavorful
Jiuliu Seafood Restaurant: The crab and the oyster tofu soup are good (a bit expensive here)
Noodle Paste: You can choose to add different ingredients, also good

Quanzhou's iconic must-visit attractions, the temple knows from the name is the Tang Dynasty, the Song Dynasty built the East and West Twin Towers is the city logo of Quanzhou, and it is also the highest height of the domestic brick tower. The decoration on the tower is both Indian and Southeast Asian styles, reflecting Quanzhou as the cultural blend of Oriental Dagang in the Song and Yuan Dynasty. Color. There are white pigeons strolling in the square in front of the Daxiong Palace. The red wall and yellow tiles on the side of the palace are suitable for filming. There are ancient Bodhi trees behind the hall. On the east side of the hall, there is a memorial hall for Li Shutong, a mage who is still in Quanzhou. The temple opens at 6:30 and there is no ticket. It is recommended to visit when it is clean in the morning. It is quite artistic.
The teacher's explanation was meticulous and interesting. It saved my play experience when there were too many people to blow up that day (I want to go back to the hotel directly when I see the people at the door ཀ`" ∠)__
The tour guide contacted one night in advance and learned that we stayed at Quanzhou Hotel and offered to pick us up at the hotel and take us to the alley. It rained the next morning. She lent us her umbrella and introduced it on the side of the road. Learn about Quanzhou architecture and Zongxu culture. It took about 3 hours from the meeting to the end of the Kaiyuan Temple explanation, very meticulous and thoughtful.
Had a pleasant time during Mr. Huang's exclusive explanation, which was a great value recommended travel experience. After booking, you will call in advance and communicate the visit time and meeting place, and the main one will start the day. Mr. Huang is very kind, knowledgeable and humorous, and the whole trip has added a lot of geography, culture, religion and architecture knowledge, and at the same time combine historical allusions to deeply understand the development of Quanzhou Kaiyuan Temple. Teacher Huang will throw bricks and jade from time to time, and test my observation power. It is large to the beams, towers, and small to one brick and one tile. I have to say that it is really full of harvest, thank you again Mr. Huang!
Kaiyuan Temple is very large. If you don’t listen to the explanation, this kind of attraction is equivalent to white. There are a lot of things you can talk about and listen to. The local guides in Xiaozhang are very professional and have a wide knowledge. It takes a total of one and a half hours, but it doesn’t feel very good enough. Time can be a little more! Going out is West Street, it is recommended!
This time I went to Quanzhou and it was really full of harvest. The intangible culture of the city was dizzying. In particular, the senior tour guide we asked to visit Kaiyuan Temple explained to us in detail, very exciting and very interesting. It is our deep understanding of the past and present lives of Kaiyuan Temple. The tour guide took the initiative to contact us at the first party, and will wait at the agreed time in advance the next day. Communication is smooth.
