Pingtan Blue Tears: The romance of the ocean or a signal from extraterrestrial life?

Fujian, this magical land, not only has the unique landform of "eight mountains, one water, and one field," but also has mouth-watering cuisine. As a tourist, are you ready to embark on a double adventure of taste and vision? Let me recommend Fujian's fun and food with a touch of humor! ✅Must-try experiences: 1. **Gulangyu Island, Xiamen**: This is not only Piano Island, but also "Lost Island." The alleys are intricate, and if you're not careful, you'll find yourself back where you started. Don't worry, getting lost is also romantic, as every alley holds surprises. 2. **Mount Wuyi**: This is a tea paradise and a "mountain gym." While drifting down the Nine-Bend Stream, you can admire the beautiful scenery while pondering, "Why do I have to exercise during my vacation?" However, after a cup of Da Hong Pao tea, you'll feel that everything is worth it. 3. **Tulou**: These round buildings are not only a World Cultural Heritage site, but also "ancient shared apartments." Imagine, hundreds of years ago, everyone lived together, how lively the neighborhood must have been! Now you can go inside and experience the atmosphere of ancient "shared living." 🍽Dining recommendations: 1. **Shaxian Snacks**: Shaxian snacks are Fujian's "national canteen," cheap and delicious. You can order a bowl of mixed noodles and a basket of steamed dumplings. After eating, you'll sigh, "It turns out I can eat like an emperor, but my wallet is still like a commoner's." 2. **Buddha Jumps Over the Wall**: The name of this dish comes from "Buddha jumps over the wall for the aroma," meaning that even Buddha can't resist tasting it. You can imagine how tempting the aroma of Buddha Jumps Over the Wall is, even a Buddha who has practiced for many years has broken the precepts! 3. **Oyster Omelet**: Fujian's oyster omelet is "the taste of the sea, you know." Crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, oysters are paired with eggs. Take a bite, and you can almost hear the sound of the waves. But be careful not to eat too much, or you might feel like you've become an "oyster spirit." 4. **Fish Balls**: Fujian's fish balls are so bouncy that they can be used as ping pong balls. You can imagine yourself participating in a "fish ball ping pong tournament" while eating, and the penalty for losing is another bowl! 5. **Sand Worm Jelly**: This dish looks like jelly, but it's actually made of sandworms. Don't be scared by its appearance, try it bravely, and you'll find that it's actually "the ocean version of jelly," with a refreshing taste and delicious flavor. 📝Tips: - In Fujian, you'll find tea culture everywhere. Wherever you go, the host will warmly pour you a cup of tea. If you don't want to drink too much, remember to learn how to politely decline, otherwise you might become a "walking teapot." - Fujian has a wide variety of dialects, and even the accents in different villages are different. If you don't understand what the locals are saying, don't worry, smiling and nodding are universally understood "languages." In short, Fujian is a place full of surprises. Both the scenery and the food will make you linger. Bring your appetite and curiosity, and come to Fujian to start a wonderful journey of "eating, drinking, and having fun"!
