A blessed land in southeast China where mountains and the sea converge: Xiamen's Gulangyu Island is filled with melodious piano notes, Wuyi Mountain's Jiuqu Stream boasts emerald waters and red cliffs, and the ancient charm of Fujian Tulou leaves the world in awe.
ABOUT · Destination Overview
Fujian is backed by mountains and faces the sea, serving as an important starting point of the Maritime Silk Road. Xiamen's Gulangyu Island is known as the "Island of Pianos", where Chinese-Western fusion architecture harmonizes beautifully with the soft strains of piano music; Wuyi Mountain is a perfect blend of Danxia landforms and tea culture, and a bamboo raft ride along the Nine-Bend Stream feels like traveling through a living painting.
Fujian Tulou are the crystallization of Hakka ancestors' wisdom, the cluster of circular Tulou buildings is listed as a World Heritage Site, and is hailed as "flying saucers that fell from the sky"; Fuzhou's Sanfang Qixiang preserves a collection of ancient Ming and Qing dynasty buildings, and Quanzhou's Kaiyuan Temple bears witness to the bustling prosperity of an ancient global trade hub.
