A Day in Quanzhou: Don't Miss This Forgotten Treasure Traditional Village
Previously, during a half-day layover in Quanzhou, I discovered a serene corner hidden away from the modern hustle and bustle, about 20 minutes' drive (10 kilometers) from the airport—Wulin Traditional Village. Unlike the bustling West Street adorned with flowers, it quietly stands there, with its distinctive red brick and white stone buildings that blend Minnan and Nanyang styles, telling the story of overseas Chinese's love for their homeland.
·
🌲Before entering the village, you can see towering phoenix trees from afar, with their fiery red flowers in full bloom, seemingly welcoming visitors from afar and calling out to wanderers.
🏠Upon entering the village, you will see rows of red brick and white stone buildings, with various deities and mythical creatures on the swallowtail ridges, each with its own unique features.
🏰As you go further in, you will see Western-style buildings such as the Chaodong Building, the Spanish-style Qiaopi Museum built with red bricks, and the Roman-style Western-style building "Gun Tower". They all bear witness to the overseas Chinese who ventured out to explore the new world but never forgot their homeland and gave back to their hometown.
🌟Recommended spots to check out:
✅Chaodong Building
✅Qiaopi Museum
✅Gun Tower
✅Five-story House
✅Juruo Ancient House Bookstore.
Ladies can also change into Peranakan costumes here to experience the Nanyang style. What impressed me the most was a coffee shop here where the latte art was actually the God of Wealth, truly reflecting the Fujian people's love and longing for wealth

I am Gungun, a middle-aged girl who loves photography and hopes to share various experiences along the way with you. May you set off with anticipation after seeing Gungun's sharing and return with joy.
Before leaving Quanzhou, be sure to leave a day for this 600-year-old village
Don't just know to go to West Street and Zanhua when you go to Quanzhou~😆 If you want to avoid the crowd and feel the Minnan ancient house style, 🛖 you must go to this Nanyang ancient village in Quanzhou that has a history of 600 years‼️
📍Jinjiang Wulin Traditional Village
🎫No tickets required
🚗I took a taxi from the airport after getting off the plane, it only takes 15 minutes, and it takes about 50 minutes from Quanzhou city
The buildings here are very distinctive, 📷 there are many photo spots, and you can also experience the Nyonya costume, which can better integrate into the scene.
📷Share my machine position, but there are more beautiful places that you can discover while walking around✅
👉Chaodong Building, Five-story House, Pit Wall Building, Stage, Bridge Batch Hall, Gun Building, etc.
I personally suggest that you can rush here the day you get off the ✈️ plane or the day you are going to fly away, leaving 2-3h is enough, because it is very close to the airport and will not detour.
Quanzhou! Compared to West Street! I prefer this century-old village!
Compared to the crowded West Street,
I prefer this century-old village in Quanzhou.
With a history of over 600 years,
It combines Chinese, Western and Minnan architectural styles,
It's really photogenic here!
.
📍Quanzhou Jinjiang Wulin Traditional Village
🚗About 20 minutes from the airport, about 40 minutes drive from West Street
.
The Wulin traditional village was built by overseas Chinese who returned home years ago, so it has both Western style and Minnan characteristics.
.
Travel Tips:
✔️The Chaodong Tower at the entrance is the most photogenic one, with a strong Western Roman style, both the front and the inside are very photogenic.
.
✔️The wall and tree at the entrance of the visitor center, when the sun is out, the light and shadow are super beautiful!
.
✔️The old houses and alleys, red walls and tiles, any corner is very photogenic!
.
It is recommended to reserve half a day for a visit here, you can change into a Nyonya costume~ I just happened to have a hairpin flower that day, so I didn't change.

Thank you for reading, see you next time👋🏻

🏠 Wulin Traditional Village is located in Jinjiang, Quanzhou, in the center of the Minnan Golden Triangle, separated from Taiwan by a body of water, and surrounded by the sea on three sides. The village was formed during the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty, covering an area of about 1,000 mu, with a building area of 60,000 square meters, and more than 10,000 overseas Chinese living abroad. It is known as the "Museum of Overseas Chinese Architecture."

🏡 Wulin Village has preserved a complete group of century-old buildings, mostly built from the early last century to around the outbreak of the War of Resistance Against Japan, including the mottled Chaodong Building, the Delong House covered by ancient banyan trees, the Deyang House known as the "Ninety-Nine Doors," the Xionghuai Motherland Building with peacocks flying in pairs, and the Dream Vegetable Family Voice Building, a single duplex apartment... These buildings, which carry the nostalgia of generations of Wulin people and overseas Chinese, are scattered in the 660-mu traditional ancient village. They include more than 200 Minnan official-style houses, Chinese and Western-style residences, Gothic architecture, and ancient Roman architecture 🏰.
·
✨ As a typical and complete Minnan traditional village, Wulin has 89 buildings of various styles, including the Ming Dynasty Baifu Wall, Qing Dynasty official-style red brick houses, modern Gothic and Roman-style Western-style buildings, and Fanzi buildings, which silently tell the glorious glory of the century-old overseas Chinese village and convey the deep feelings of generations of overseas Chinese.

Light and shadow become poetry in Xie Ke's new work in Quanzhou.
Quanzhou is my first choice for off-peak travel in October! With its pleasant temperature and secluded beaches... If you're tired of the green mountains and rivers of Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Shanghai, it's time to head south.
This time, I arranged a four-day, three-night solo trip to Quanzhou. Just go! But I didn't take the usual route, my first stop was from the beach.
📍Qi Xu Reef Stone
I underestimated my expectations for the hotel built on the reef. Qi Xu Reef Stone, which opened in May this year, is a new work by Master Xie Ke~ It's so beautiful that it's overwhelming😍
Far away from the bustling city, it has a strong holiday feel, like going to the summer in Sicily, bright and shining!
The guest rooms face the invincible sea view, and you can watch the sunrise without leaving the house. In the minimalist design, the sense of time of light and shadow is integrated, and every detail is carefully polished. Natural elements are also flexibly used, even in the guest rooms, you can deeply feel the healing of the natural system.
The benefits of getting up early are... you can enjoy a whole sea area~ 7-9 am is also the best shooting time, the sun shines into every part of the hall from the floor-to-ceiling windows, where the light reaches, everything has a story.
I look forward to time, just stop here.

Jinjiang Wulin Village, Quanzhou, Fujian | Don't miss the century-old Nanyang-style ancient buildings.
🍁Listen to advice!
Traveling to Quanzhou! Don't just go to West Street in the ancient city!
Also set aside half a day to visit Wulin Traditional Village
Not only can you avoid crowds and travel freely
🍁You can also see a century-old Nanyang-style building complex... Girls can also change into Nyonya costumes and take beautiful photos! It is close to the airport and Quanzhou South, and transportation is also very convenient
🍁Wulin Village was built by early overseas Chinese returning to their hometown, and it is a microcosm of their longing for their hometown... Here you can not only see Minnan-style buildings but also feel the exotic architectural style. In addition to buildings, you can also see ancient wells and old trees with exposed roots... It is really worth spending half a day here to walk around!

🍁Wulin Village is a representative overseas Chinese hometown in Minnan. Overseas Chinese go out to work and return home to build their hometown, bringing Western and Nanyang styles back to their hometown, integrating them into Minnan traditional culture... Full of overseas Chinese's strong nostalgia
Several of my favorite photo and play points:
🍁Chaodong Building:
Landmark building at the entrance, the largest mansion in the village, take a photo at the entrance, remember to walk inside and take a photo in the middle of the courtyard

Spanish-style building built with Minnan red bricks, free to go to the second floor, you can take a panoramic view of the ancient village, take a photo standing on the balcony, or take a high-angle photo of the ground
🍁Gun Tower:
Tower-shaped, not necessarily standing below to take a photo, take a long-distance photo of the ancient village from the road in front of the Overseas Chinese Letter Museum, which has a stronger sense of hierarchy
🍁Five-story house:
Named after the five-story building, stand at the intersection a little further away, you can take a full photo
🍁Dewei House:
Minnan ancient dwelling, there is a big banyan tree with exposed roots inside, which is very beautiful. Locals usually call it "Banyan Root House", just ask if you can't find it
🍁Grassland on the left hand side of the visitor center:
It's nice to take photos of people sitting on the wooden boards under the tree, there is a Heyue Culture Museum behind, you can go to the second floor to take photos

Although it is only 305 meters above sea level, it has become a holy place in the hearts of the locals due to its unique geographical location and rich natural landscape.
The name of Lingyuan Mountain has a long history. In ancient times, it was named Taiping Mountain and Peng Mountain because the top of the mountain was flat. In the Song Dynasty, the imperial historian Wu Zhongfu and Wu Zhongchun Kunzhong lived in seclusion and practiced here, so they changed their names to Wumeng Mountain and Wu Mountain. There are often clear springs flowing in the mountains, surrounding the foot of the mountain, so it is also called Lingyuan Mountain. Lingyuan Mountain, with its unique geographical location and climatic conditions, has formed a rare evergreen broad-leaved forest, with evergreen pines and cypresses, flowers and trees, rugged rocks, and pleasant scenery. It is a famous peak in Quannan.
In the arms of Lingyuan Mountain, there is a thousand-year-old temple-Lingyuan Zen Temple. This temple is famous for its spiritual effects and attracts countless believers to pray for blessings. Scenic spots such as Buiyun Pass and Wangjiang Stone surround it, as if guarding this pure land. Especially the three graceful regular script characters "Linghu Tian" are the iconic existence of Lingyuan Mountain, written by Ming Taifu Shangshu Chengchunfu in the 47th year of Wanli.
In history, Lingyuan Mountain has always been a holy place for scholars to study. Ouyang Zhan of the Tang Dynasty studied here for three years, setting a precedent for the eight Fujian scholars. Lin Zhi, a famous scholar in the Song Dynasty, died on this mountain and was buried here. Lin Zhi's great-grandson, poet Lin Wai, also studied in the Ziyun Room on this mountain. Wang Han of the Yuan Dynasty even claimed to be a "friend of the mountain people" and often lingered on Lingyuan Mountain. The footprints of these celebrities have added a strong historical and cultural heritage to Lingyuan Mountain.
Literati and ink guests of all ages also have a soft spot for Lingyuan Mountain, leaving many poems about Lingyuan Mountain. These poems not only depict the magnificent scenery of Lingyuan Mountain, but also express their respect and praise for Lingyuan Mountain. The poems of celebrities such as Huang Kehui, Wang Shenzhong, Chen Rang, Zhang Ruitu, and Su Jun of the Ming Dynasty are still being passed down to this day.
There are countless legends about Lingyuan Mountain. Since ancient times, there have been many monks in the famous mountains. It is said that as early as the eighth year of the Sui Dynasty, there were monks who built temples on the top of Lingyuan Mountain to worship Guanyin Bodhisattva. In the eighth year of Tang Dezong Zhenyuan, Taoist Cai Mingjun and temple monk Shoujing jointly expanded the temple. At the end of the Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, Zhang Dingbian, a brave general of Chen Youliang, also fled to this mountain to become a monk, known as the Muxiang Zen Master, and built a new temple on the mountainside. These legends add a mysterious color to Lingyuan Mountain and make Lingyuan Zen Temple a holy place in the hearts of believers.
Whenever the dawn or the sunset, Lingyuan Mountain will present a kind of quiet and mysterious beauty. The clear spring in the mountains flows in the stone cracks, making a gurgling sound, as if telling a thousand-year-old story. Those ancient temples and tombs stand quietly there, witnessing the passage of time. Walking in the forest path of Lingyuan Mountain, you can feel the mystery and power of nature, and you can also appreciate the heaviness and depth of historical culture.
In short, Lingyuan Mountain is a famous mountain full of historical and cultural heritage. Whether it is its natural landscape or cultural landscape, it is worth our exploration and appreciation. Each tour will bring us different feelings and inspirations, so that we can feel the heaviness of history and the charm of culture while enjoying the beautiful scenery.
