What People Are Saying About Fuzhou

Pingtan Island

avatar
M29***03
I like "68 nautical miles". It is 68 nautical miles from Taiwan. The nearby strange stones are also very interesting, and you can imagine all kinds of shapes. The Nandao language museum is worth seeing. It tells you where the earliest humans in Taiwan came from.

Houyan Island

If you are simply looking at the sea, other free attractions in Pingtan are not worse than this. Just stroll around, blow the hair, it is still possible, the key is off-season or off-peak, otherwise if you park outside, the parking lot is quite far away. It doesn't matter if the sightseeing car is really 5,6 minutes walk. You can also take pictures along the way. It's closest to Taiwan, but it's physically close, and it's actually impossible to see it haha.

Three Lanes And Seven Alleys

There are many former residences of celebrities in Sanfang Qixiang. It is very good to find an interpreter to tell you from beginning to end. There are also many popular attractions and special snacks on the street. The elderly and children have a lot of fun. I recommend everyone to come. It is a must-visit in Fuzhou

Feel the sound of the waves, a total of 50 steps, go to the mountain observation deck to hug the sea, and then enter the valley, very film, and you need to try to get as early as possible to seize a stone with favorable terrain.

68 Nautical Miles Scenic Spot

行走毛毛
This scenic spot is the place where everyone must punch in Pingtan. After all, it represents the most beautiful coastline of the entire platform. Although tickets are required, it is worth punching in. However, the Jingjiao car inside is not recommended for everyone to do it.

Min River Night Cruise

M55***36
When the lights come on, the clear waters of the Minjiang River are gorgeous and the scenery is charming, like a colorful rainbow. Departing from Taijiang Wharf, take a cruise to explore the beautiful Minjiang River, savor the feelings of the Min River under the night sky, enjoy the beautiful sea view, and recall the historical charm.

Minyue Water Town

没事忽悠人
The day I went there was not beautiful... It was raining... So there were not many tourists in the scenic spot... I went there at 4 pm... I just wanted to see the night view... I was not disappointed... The night view is still good... The antique building is beautiful with the lights...

Fujian Museum

欲飞的鸟
[Fujian Museum] is a unit directly under the Fujian Provincial Department of Culture and Tourism, a national-level museum, located at No. 96 Hutou Street, Gulou District, Fuzhou City, Fujian Province, covering an area of 90 mu, building area of 3.7 10,000 square meters, exhibition hall area of about 1.2 10,000 square meters, with a total of 15 exhibition halls. Among them, the exhibition "Fujian Ancient Civilization Light", "Mr. Going Home - Yanfu and China's modern celebrity works exhibition", is very worth seeing.

Shang Xia Hang

文采飛揚
I chose this place by accident at first. I thought the Shangxiahang Historical District was also a tourist attraction, so I stayed in a B&B nearby. Later, I found that it was so beautiful here at night with lanterns hanging high. There are restaurants, pubs, and bookstores in the district. It is really suitable for a relaxing stroll ❤️ There are many attractions nearby, almost all of which can be reached on foot. It is also very convenient to go to other attractions. The transportation is very convenient. Next time I will come back to check in
