2024 Zhangzhou Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in December)
Chaozhou is a famous historical and cultural city with more than 1,300 years of history. Generation after generation of renown figures were born here. This small city has a very profound cultural heritage and is the hometown of many overseas Chinese and Taiwanese. The local southern Fujianese culture is recognized as part of the nation's intangible cultural heritage. In addition to the people, this land also has a very special spirit. The fragrant clouds of incense at Sanping Temple, the mysterious Fengdong Stone of Dongshan Island, the unique architecture of the Hakka Tulou and the famous Yundongyan are well worth seeing. Scenes from the 2006 film "The Knot" were shot at Chaozhou's Yunshuiyu Ancient Town. The exquisite ocean landscape here is not to be missed.

Warm Winter·Meeting Zhangzhou
Time in Zhangzhou passes very quickly and very slowly. Wandering through the slow-paced streets and alleys, before you know it, it's already the third day of the trip. Wake up in Lugai Ecological Manor, surrounded by the countryside, start a refreshing day, watch students on a study tour, pick strawberries by yourself, and enjoy Nyonya cakes. In the morning, come to Snail Village to experience a slow life like a snail. The various snail-shaped photo spots in the park are both lively and healing.

Moody Temples
Spent the weekend running around a mountain temple in Zhangzhou.
1,500 stairs up the side of the mountain is this temple that, surprisingly, wasn’t too busy despite the holiday.
It may not have been perfect conditions for a clear view of the ling tong temple - or the mountain it’s on - but the rolling mist was perfect for moody shots.
Next time, will hope for slightly less mist to be able to get the drone up though.

Hike, climb, explore!
Only 45 minute drive from Jimei this is a great location for a day trip. Drive up to the base of the trail and then walk the 4-5km loop. Several side trails make for a variety of difficulties of hiking. One area has a rock that is too narrow for an adult male to squeeze through so you either hike around or climb up! Several tunnels and vertical staircases make for an exhilarating experience and top it all off with spectacular views.
Hanging temples | Fujian ✌️
Getting There - rental car, we came from Xiamen which took about 3h
Attractions - temple & nature
Food & Restaurants - few convenience stores close to the temple, besides that better bring your own stuff
Difficulty - hike around 3-4h, challenging if not prepared but great way through the forest #bucketlistreboot #nature #china #temples
Lingtong mountain, also known as Dafeng mountain, is located in the southwest of Pinghe County, Zhangzhou city. Because of its long history and vicissitudes, the name of the mountain has changed. At first, it was called Dafeng mountain, which was also called Dapeng mountain because of the frequent roosting of Dapeng birds. At that time, the mountain was full of maple trees, and the forests were dyed in autumn, so it was also called Dafeng mountain. With the decrease of maple trees, it was only seen that the mountain rose into the clouds, and it was recorded in the history books as Dafeng mountain. Until Huang Daozhou, the great scholar of Ming Dynasty, wrote the four words "lingyinggantong" for Dafeng rock, people began to call it Dafeng rock As lingtongyan, Dafeng mountain is also called lingtongshan.

Zhangzhou Niuzhuang Cultural Park!
I'm currently in Zhangzhou so I decided to explore this city. As usual, there are a lot of parks you can go to anywhere in China. Niuzhuang Cultural Park is different from the other parks. This one doesn't have nature you can see but there are a lot of shops and restaurants around. I think this place is popular for leisure activities. Walking around to see the colorful buildings takes around 15 minutes and after that it's either you want to drink or eat. If you are hungry and at the same time you want to snap some photos I think this place can be your go to.

Jiulong Bonsai Garden, Zhangzhou!
We decided to go to a park in Zhangzhou. It is one of the best parks here. It has a big pond, a lot of big trees probably they are Bonsai trees? I'm not sure about that it's just in my country, bonsai could be a plant or a tree. Many kids were playing and having fun. Adults were playing cards too and Chinese chess. The bridges in the middle of the pond is quite attractive and also the dragons figure at the entrance. We just stayed there approximately 30 minutes. There are small boats too but that time we went we couldn't use them. Well, this park is good to go jogging or just walk around.

Jiangbin Park, Zhangzhou
Getting There - If you live in Zhangzhou you can go there by taxi, car or even ride a motorbike. It takes 15 minutes by taxi and costs about12rmb from where I'm staying.
Attractions - There are a lot of things you can find since it's a huge park. There are beautiful lanterns, lights, bridges, river and you can see people around doing exercises, Others are fishing as well. The view is refreshing.
Hotels - There are a lot of hotels you can find around. This place is quite convenient.
Food & Restaurants - A lot of restaurants around. But inside the park you can't see one. You should eat first or bring your own food and drinks.
Shopping - You can also shop around. There are malls nearby the park so it's good after you stroll around the park then you can go shopping.
It's much better to go there at night. It's more beautiful.

Christian Church, Zhangzhou
I have only seen one church in Zhangzhou which is this one. It is located at 39 Xinhua North Road, Xiancheng District, Zhangzhou. This church can easily be seen since it's just along the road. I like the exterior of this church and it's triangular shape. You can see intersections around the corner and many cars parked around this area too.
Well, I didn't get in so I'm not sure what to see inside. This church is quite eye catching. When you pass the place, you can easily think to take a photo of it especially when the weather is nice.

Getting 'round Fujian
Tulou (土楼) are massive round or square earthen buildings constructed by Hakka people throughout south China, particularly in inland Fujian. Built for residential and defensive purposes, they were home to one or more clans comprising several families, with individual apartments facing inwards to a common courtyard. Some are still inhabited nowadays while others are in poor condition, but they're now one of the most popular tourist attractions in the area and well worth visiting.
Getting There - The tulou are scattered throughout the countryside, so it's difficult to visit them without a car. We took the train from Xiamen to Nanjing (南靖 — not to be confused with the former capital Nanjing 南京) where we found many drivers. We negotiated a route and price with one driver, who took us first to a guesthouse (not included in the price) and then on an excellent one day tour of several Hakka villages. This was probably the most flexible way to see the area without our own car and the price was reasonable.
Note that it's also necessary to buy a ticket to the tulou area; the funds raised by these passes supposedly go towards preservation of the ancient buildings.
Attractions - As well as the tulou, there are ancient temples and high terraced fields, making this a great place for photography.
Hotels - There are many guesthouses and small hotels in the area, including some inside tulou themselves. We stayed in the hotel recommended by our driver, which was clean and comfortable and run by a very friendly local couple.
Food & Restaurants - Many guesthouses offer food and there are many other restaurants catering for the crowds of tourists who visit this area.
Shopping - Inside the tulou many families have opened small shops selling tea and other local produce, handicrafts and knick-knacks. Many of the tea shops offer a chance to taste several different kinds of Fujianese tea (our driver took us to a couple of places for tasting.)

Traveling to Xiamen does not want to be the same, so I came to the surrounding town of Cape Town for a few days, the owner of the hotel took us to only the local The island that talent knows! ! Super niche.
Highlight 1: The scenery here is primitive and natural (more beautiful than the volcanic island not far away). The shooting time is today (that is, the early spring).

Bright spot 2: You can board the foreign island after the low tide every day, here is more primitive (Fig. 3)

Recommendation: Take a taxi.
Wear: Suggest a small fresh style.
Location: Baidu map location is displayed as Inner Mongolia.

so you can see from this photo. There is really no tourist here. I was very excited to see the Tulou for the first time.
The picture in the movie Now I am also in
and I feel super magical.
Hekeng Tulou is located in Zhangzhou, Fujian Province. The 15th and various earth buildings of the Hekeng Tulou Group are magnificent. They are distributed on the banks of the Xiaohe River in the shape of T-shaped, which is the most densely distributed among the Nanjing Tulou Group. Among them, the type of earth building in Hekeng is also the most diverse. Among the forty-five earth buildings in Fujian, which is included in the World Heritage Site, Hekeng has occupied 15 of them, the largest number.

Those who have been to Kenting in Taiwan must have a deep impression on the beautiful and beautiful grassland. Facing the sea, the spring blossoms, sitting on the soft grass, blowing the cool sea breeze, everything is so beautiful.
And in Fujian, there is also such a place, which is the Cape Town of Zhangzhou. Zhenhaijiao is located in Qiwei Mountain, Zhenhai Village, Longhai City, Zhangzhou. It is a peninsula that is backed by green hills and surrounded by the sea on three sides. Zhenhaiwei, who lives in the Sun and Moon Xinghai, stretches all the way and drills straight into the sea. Let people fall in love at first sight, and the soft waves in the bottom of my heart. Standing on the lawn of the town's cape, there is a blue sky and a 300-degree seascape. At the foot are the green grass and blooming wildflowers. There are two red and white lighthouses in the distance.
Compared with Xiamen, Ganzhou is not a hot tourist destination. But when it comes to earth buildings, it is familiar. Fujian's classic earth buildings are mainly distributed in Yongding County of Longyan City and Nanjing County of Cangzhou City. The famous earth buildings in Yongding County are concentrated in Hukeng Town and Xiayang Town. The famous earth buildings in Nanjing County are concentrated in Shuyang Town and Meilin Town.
Nanjing County, the ancient name of Lanshui County, brings together the oldest, most beautiful, highest, largest, smallest and most unique earth buildings in the country. The Tulou Scenic Area is distributed in a circular shape with a diameter of 10Km. The most famous ones are Tianluokeng Tulou Group, Dongpu West Lean Yuchang Building, Hekeng Tulou Building, Huaiyuan Building, Hegui Building and Taxia Village. The name of the Tianluokeng Tulou Group originated in the 1960s. The satellite photos taken in the United States mistaken the five earthen buildings in Tianluokeng as China's nuclear reactors, causing the international community to be at a loss. In addition to the role of nuclear reactors and the World Heritage List, today's fame is also known as the "four dishes and one soup."
Taxia Village, here is a typical Hakka village in China. It is known as the Zhounan Zhouzhuang. The most unique thing here is the Hanging Corner Building of Zhejiang Hangshui Township. The high and low staggered layout is also a wonderful landscape.
Follow the bridge to the slope, all the way into the road, you can see the Zhang family temple, the Zhang family temple Deyuan Hall has a history of more than 400 years, the main hall of the archway with colorful porcelain mosaic double dragon Play beads, the image is lifelike. Walking into the temple, you can see the history of the wood from the wood carvings in the house.
Many small shops in the village of Taxia are selling Yanggan tea, orange tea and dried persimmon. The price is not expensive. The best thing to eat is the dried persimmon. It is close to the evening from the village of Taxia.

It has a height of 5 layers and 18.2 meters. There are 54 rooms in each floor. There are 270 rooms in total, covering an area of 2,289 square meters and a building area of 6358.2 square meters. There is a Guanyin temple in the middle. The ground is covered with uneven stone roads and it is as close as it is to hear it telling its own history.
From the beginning of the door, all the way is invited to enter the home to see the well, on the first floor, each household has a small well, did not walk into the view, the commercial atmosphere is too strong, a little uncomfortable. The only regret is that because of the age of the earth building, it is impossible to go upstairs to find out the true colors. It is a pity that only the periphery can be turned around and look.
The temple in the middle, the incense is very busy, there is a small sales department next to it. Yuchang Tower is admired by the outside, the shape is huge, the stream in front of the door, the stone bridge and the earth building echo each other, as if the children are playing in the water and having fun.
The earth building has seen more, and it feels almost the same. It is nothing more than a tour group that enters and exits, an endless commercial booth, and most of the earth buildings that are tourist attractions have been commercialized. If you happen to pass through Hekeng Village in Shuyang Town, Nanjing County, you will find that the earth buildings here are not the same.
Hengkeng Village is 58 kilometers away from Nanjing County. Visitors coming to Nanjing to see the earth building generally choose Yunshuiyu or Tianluokeng, two famous scenic spots. Whether it is popularity or convenient transportation, Hekeng Tulou Group Can not match the above two scenic spots. Because of this, this group of earth buildings was preserved intact and quietly hidden in the mountains.
There is a small hill a few hundred meters away from Hekeng Village, which is less than 100 meters high. The observation deck on the mountain overlooks the entire Tulou group. The Hekeng Tulou Group contains more than a dozen earth buildings.
The earliest earth building here is called Chaoshui Building. It was built in 1549. It is a group of earth buildings in the Ming Dynasty.
Entering Hekeng Village, there is no tourist bus. There are not many cars in the village. Chickens and ducks walk around and are not afraid of tourists.
Entered a large-scale earth building called Yuchang Building. There is only one door in and out of the whole earth building. The earth building is huge.
This earth building has three floors. From the clothes drying in the second and third floors, there are still many people living. In the middle of the earth building is a flat square, which is a public activity area for the residents of the earth building.
There is also a water town in Weinan? Yes, there is a Taxia Village in Nanjing County, Fujian Province. A river runs through the village. There are more than 50 earth buildings along the river. There are square, round and other shapes. The river has built 11 A small bridge, such as Jiangnan Water Town. Taxia Village is also known as Southern Zhouzhuang. The history of
Taxia Village began in 1426, when it was a wasteland. This is a typical Hakka village. The village's alleys are winding and undulating. The village is very quiet and there are not many tourists.
The stream is flowing cheerfully, the water is not deep, and the village is located between the two mountains. Before the founding of the People's Republic, there were only three simple wooden bridges in the village, which would be destroyed when there was a flood. Later, with the support of overseas Chinese, 11 cement bridges were built in the village. This village is also a famous hometown of overseas Chinese.
The earliest earth building in the village is called Fuxing Building. It was built in the Ming Dynasty Chongzhen four years (1631). Later, dozens of earth buildings were built successively, arranged along the mountain stream, tall and magnificent, magnificent.
After the end of the Qing Dynasty, due to the limitation of geographical environment, the Zhang family members built a single-story civil and brick-wood structure on the open space along the banks of the river, forming a small building with high and low layout. Wonderful landscape.
The alleys in the village are winding around like a labyrinth. The cobblestone trails are rounded by the footprints of centuries-old people. The rain is light and smoke, giving off a soft luster.
