Fujian natives seem to prefer to go to Quanzhou. Not only is the consumption lower than that of Xiamen, but there are no bustling tourists on the beach there, and the crystal clear water does not lose Sanya; The red brick roadway paved with bluestone slabs retains the ancient flavor similar to Tainan.
Walking on the streets of Quanzhou, you will willingly get lost. I like to hear the strong Minnan dialect on the street corner, and I also like to wander around casually, and I come across a temple by chance or several faded old buildings.
Next, Bian Xiao will briefly introduce the places worth visiting in Quanzhou.
The most exotic Zhongshan Road in Quanzhou.
Licheng District
Speaking of arcade, you will think of Guangzhou, right? The arcades in Quanzhou have a unique Nanyang style.
It leaves a corridor several meters wide in front of the shops on the first floor, which runs through from front to back and is supported by big pillars, so that people walking in it can walk around the whole commercial street calmly without worrying about the troubles caused by the sun and rain.
The most fascinating thing is the street flavor of the arcade. At the beginning of the evening lights, vendors suddenly gathered from all directions, each occupying a corner of the promenade to sell. You can look at the real street scene along the way and recall your childhood memories. ...
The middle section of Tumen Street is the most exotic mosque in Quanzhou.
If you want to see Islam, you don't have to go to distant Xinjiang. Quanzhou has the oldest Islamic temple with Arab architectural style. On the gate of the Central Asian-style temple, the double-concave and semi-domed porch makes people fear the holiness advocated by Islam.
Step into the temple, find a lawn and sit on the floor to see what it looks like after two major earthquakes, 1604 and 1607. However, thousands of years of baptism can't dilute the charm left here. Even the rustle of the wind blowing through the old trees makes the lonely people look particularly beautiful.
Hongta Bay in yongningzhen, the quietest beach in Quanzhou.
shishi city
There are no bustling tourists, no dirty garbage, only a stone beach composed of crystal clear seawater and strange stones, which is Hongta Bay in Quanzhou. The bright sunshine is projected on your body, and the sound of the sea beating on the stone beach over and over again is in your ear. Countless fishing boats docked in the harbor in rows, and the sunset gradually disappeared behind the dusk clouds. The night in Quanzhou is a peaceful atmosphere.
Xijie 176 Kaiyuan Temple is the most famous temple in Quanzhou.
"Outside the pavilion, beside the ancient road, the grass is blue ..." This well-known "Farewell" was written by Master Hongyi of Kaiyuan Temple in Quanzhou, that is, Li Shutong. The song echoed in his ears and passed by his world.
Surrounded by banyan and bodhi trees, the sun shines on the eaves of the red wall, burning incense, gently closing your eyes and praying for the peace of the New Year. A pair of stone pagodas in Kaiyuan Temple are located on the east and west sides, guarding this low-key town for generations.
Immortals are a bit crowded in Quanzhou, and you may encounter a temple when you travel through every alley. In which city are Taoism, Buddhism and Islam colorful?
The old inn in Quanzhou West Street is the most unforgettable handkerchief in Quanzhou.
Li Cheng
Everyone who comes to Quanzhou will not miss an old street with a history of 1300-West Street. The alleys on both sides are particularly interesting, and the most impressive one is an alley called Old Inn.
There is a handkerchief in the alley, which was once called "Snow Station" by the famous poet Shu Ting. This small residence is small and friendly, simple and elegant. Walking into this alley is like walking into Anping Castle in Taiwan Province Province.
(Author: Minnan ancient houses refer to the traditional houses in southern Fujian. In Minnan dialect, "CuO" is a house, and red brick is a house made of red brick, which is also the most representative traditional building in southern Fujian. )
Jinchai Lane in Quanzhou West Street is known as the most embarrassing alley in Quanzhou.
Speaking of this hutong, it was once popular all over the country because of another nickname of Ren Lei. (What is it? I suggest you Baidu. ) 100 meter alley, with a width of less than one meter, has become the narrowest alley in Quanzhou. It is said that in the past, women used to walk in the alley because it was too narrow, so they could only "brush their breasts" when they met male compatriots and suffered losses. It's embarrassing to walk in the alley. Interestingly, there is one in Lu Kang, Taiwan Province, which has become a tourist attraction.
