About This Trip
From Xiamen, a scenic two-hour drive brings you to the ancient city of Quanzhou. The first stop is the picturesque Qingyuan Mountain, a haven for nature lovers and a cultural icon of the region. Here, take in the stunning rock formations and enjoy the serene atmosphere. Next, explore the historic Kaiyuan Temple, where captivating stories of its origins accompany your discovery of intricate architecture and sculptures, showcasing the impressive craftsmanship of ancient builders.
Continue to the Southern Shaolin Temple, a key site of China’s Zen Buddhist heritage and the birthplace of Southern Shaolin Kung Fu, where the spiritual essence of martial arts is deeply intertwined with the disciplined lives of the monks. Nearby, don’t miss the Luoyang Bridge, showcasing the innovative engineering of its era. Marvel at its graceful design and the creativity of the builders. For those fascinated by traditional cosmetic and styling experiences, visit Quanzhou’s West Street, where you can participate in the traditional flower-adornment ritual of the local fisherwomen, selecting your favorite floral designs and attire, and creating lasting memories while experiencing the local customs.
