I ran 1000 kilometers just to take her to see a romantic cherry blossom!!
Having been featured in National Geographic, the cherry blossom garden in Yongfu, Zhangzhou, did not disappoint! The Taipin Cherry Blossom Garden in Yongfu Town is at the end of its peak bloom
The flowers are blooming very fully
If there happens to be a breeze, there will be a romantic cherry blossom rain under the tree
This place is great for both aerial and ground photography
However, the tea gardens here are planted quite densely
Some pretty good spots take a lot of time to walk to
Yongfu Town, Zhangping City, Longyan, Fujian 'Taipin Cherry Blossom Garden'
It is recommended to drive by yourself, it takes 2-3h from Xiamen/Zhangzhou, and the ticket price is 50, which to be honest is a bit expensive

Best Rooftop Terrace in Xiamen (Wanna Roof)
The experience I had at this location is like traveling to Hawaii for a vacation with Latin flavor. The design of the restaurant, the terrace, the color of the wall (Orange wall), the musical selections and the live Band makes this location the best place for tourist that wants to experience life in Xiamen.
The environment is great. Although there were a lot of people, I had to wait in line, In the end,I felt it was worth it.
The scenery at night was great. I will recommend going in the evening, take some lovely pictures with the orange walls (I would suggest colorful clothes) and then have a romantic dinner with Sea View. #rooftop #sea View #terrace #staycation #summervacation #awesomepic #beachlife #tripblazers #bucketlistreboot #mytripvlog #beachlife #foodie #passionpassport #nationalpark #

Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Mar)
You should visit Guizhou at least once, and experience the day and night of the Qianhu Miao Village!!
It turns out that the off-season is the correct way to visit the Qianhu Miao Village of Xijiang❗️||🏠Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village
🚗About transportation:
Take the high-speed rail to Kaili South Station!
❗️There is a bus ticket office on the left side of the high-speed rail station: 18/person (but there is a timetable, it seems to be one and a half hours)
❗️If the departure time is close to the departure time, then I strongly recommend taking the bus! There is really no need to take a black car, the bus can directly send to the west gate or north gate, both gates will stop
-
🚪About which door to enter:
Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village has two gates, west gate and north gate
I sincerely recommend going in and out of the north gate
Because the west gate must go through a commercial street that lasts for seven or eight minutes,
The commercial street is really really very⬇️ Head
If you are dragging a suitcase, it is even more difficult
-
🚌About sightseeing car:
After entering the scenic area, you have to take a sightseeing car to enter the village
I can only say that the money that should be spent still has to be spent
-
🏘️About accommodation:
Accommodation is not recommended! The best view is with a balcony
If there are not too many requirements, it is enough to suggest halfway up the mountain
Living too high is really really hard to climb
-
🍽️About eating:
For friends who come to Guizhou for the first time, I recommend sour soup beef or local stir-fry
-
📝Note tips:
There are really few people going in the off-season
Accommodation and eating are relatively convenient
It is best to find a sunny day to go
The experience on a rainy day should not be too good
The village is quite commercial, but I personally think it is very beautiful and worth it! The stilted buildings are very beautiful and the photos are very good. It is a good choice to go on a sunny day for a weekend. It is not as unbearable as the Internet says
There will be some performances at a fixed time
Try to bring as little luggage as possible. It is really hard to walk with a suitcase on the road in the village. If there is really a lot of luggage, try to choose a homestay that can help with luggage
Remember to wear a pair of comfortable shoes

The Wooden House Village.
The Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village is a special ancient village in Guizhou Province of China. It is home to the Miao people, a minority group in China.
Getting there: Get to Kaili city (in Guizhou province) by train. Then get a taxi to the village. A private car is also an option and you just need to search online for a company - there are many English speaking ones that can take you.
The village itself is filled with stunning traditional wooden architecture and stunning scenic views of the ancient village. (see my photos for some examples). It is truly a unique part of China.
I recommend staying for several nights to really enjoy and take in the culture.
Tip: Go for sunset shots to enjoy a panoramic view of Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village. There are viewing decks on the opposite hill of Xijiang Miao Village and electric car can take you there. Standing on the viewing deck, you’ll enjoy picturesque and peaceful panoramic view of the whole village.
