In March 2026, Ningde welcomes the prime season for flower viewing and self-driving tours across the region! The spring-themed route "Fortune Gathers in Ningde · Flowers Along the Way" officially launches, connecting the flower seas and ancient villages of Jiaocheng, Gutian, Pingnan, Zhouning, and Shouning, creating an immersive mountain and countryside spring travel experience. [Huotong Huayang Bay] Along the Huotong Creek, hundreds of acres of rapeseed flowers spread out in golden waves, interspersed with early-blooming peach blossoms, forming a three-dimensional floral scene of "peach pink reflecting golden waves"; mid-March is the best viewing period. Visitors can also explore the thousand-year-old Huotong Ancient Town, where bright orange firecracker flowers hang over the Ming and Qing dynasty streets, the Huang Clan Ancestral Hall and Huang Ju’s hometown quietly narrate history, and the lion dance performance is held from Tuesday to Sunday at 13:10 in the new hall. Local snacks like Guangbing flatbread and tar buns add to the lively atmosphere. [Qianlaishan Cherry Blossom Valley] In Qianzuo Village, Daqiao Town, Gutian County, cherry blossoms bloom like snow in March, with over 30,000 trees of varieties such as Benishidare, Somei Yoshino, and Kanzan blooming in succession; the cherry blossom boardwalk offers changing views with every step, complemented by the clear Fengwei Waterfall. The "Money Road" is a popular photo spot for good luck, and the viewing platform overlooks the entire valley’s sea of flowers. [Baiyu No-Till Farm] In Baiyu Village, Shoushan Township, Pingnan County, colorful rapeseed flower fields roll like a sea—pink, purple, orange, and gold intertwine. Along the river, cherry blossoms bloom simultaneously, resembling a Monet painting. Adjacent to the ancient Tea and Salt Road, the Baiyu to Longjing Bridge hiking trail is about 2 kilometers of easy walking, passing terraced fields, sea of clouds, and strange rocks, full of wild charm. [Shangyang Village Peach Blossom Ridge] Shangyang Village in Puyuan Town, Zhouning County, is built along Xianfeng Mountain. Peach blossoms bloom in layers of pink, red, and white, and the winding mountain path feels like a spring road from Tang and Song poetry—quiet and lively, perfect for slow walking and deep breathing. [Puyuan Village Carp Creek] In Puyuan Village, Puyuan Town, Zhouning County, the creek is clear, with nearly 10,000 colorful koi swimming freely, responding to people’s calls. Among yellow walls and black tiles, new spaces like cafes and craft shops have emerged. The fish mound, ancient cedar trees, and ancestral halls together preserve the millennium-old poetic charm of "people and fish enjoying together." [Xipu Village Pear Garden Covered Bridge] In Xipu Village, Xixi Town, Shouning County, nearly a hundred acres of century-old pear trees bloom like clouds and snow. Under the flower-covered branches, the creek, ancient covered bridge, stepping stones, Zhuangyuan Square, and Taiyin Palace form a Jiangnan ink painting scroll. The national intangible cultural heritage "Beilu Opera" lingers in the air, and the ancient village’s cultural heritage is vividly alive. The overall flowering period is concentrated from March to early April, with slight variations due to weather. It is recommended to check current conditions before departure. Self-driving is recommended, with navigation directly to village or scenic spot names. The mountain area has large temperature differences between morning and evening, so bring a light jacket and comfortable shoes. Come to Ningde and start your own mountain and countryside spring journey!

I once thought I had seen all the elegance of Jiangnan, until I met Ningde and discovered how tender the mountains and sea can be. Here, there are no crowded crowds, only the tranquility of "the green sea and setting sun create the most serene scene, the rolling waves are hard to hold back." When the hustle and bustle of the city becomes the norm, Ningde gently embraces all weariness with its slow pace of life. First stop: Taimao Mountain, the Immortal Capital on the Sea "Taimao Mountain, the Immortal Capital on the Sea, with millions of strange rocks and towering cliffs." Climbing the mountain in the early morning mist feels like stepping into a fairyland. Among the jagged rocks lie countless legends: the Husband and Wife Peaks stand embraced, and the Nine Carps swim toward the sky, ready to transform into dragons. Standing on Fuding Peak and gazing afar, the vast East China Sea stretches endlessly, and at that moment, one understands what it means to be "all phenomena are incomparable, serene and empty between self and things." Second stop: Sandu'ao, a vast expanse of blue waves "The labyrinthine Doumao is imbued with immortal aura, the treasure-bearing golden turtle forms a Taoist bond." Taking a boat through Sandu'ao, the "Heavenly Lake on the Sea," you see fishing rafts scattered and flocks of seagulls soaring. At sunset, "Huangwan and Meng'ao weave cloud brocade, the fine harbor of Sandu is famed across the sea," golden light spreads over the water, so beautiful it makes you forget time. Third stop: Baishuiyang and Yuanyang Creek "In Baishuiyang the waves are still calm, in Yuanyang Creek passion stirs." Baishuiyang, a must-visit in summer, is the largest shallow water plaza in the world. Walking barefoot on the flat giant stone riverbed, cool creek water laps at your ankles. "Water converges from two creeks into a white expanse, fish scales layer down the platform," here you can play in the water to your heart’s content and rediscover childhood joy. Accommodation recommendation: Poetic lakeside dwelling This time I stayed at Ningde Baixiang Sandu'ao Hotel, enjoying exclusive views of East Lake. Opening the window in the morning reveals "the mirror-like lake with fresh clear colors, the evening breeze between the banks is gentle," and at night in the lake-view room, I watched "a few star lights chasing the sailing waves," falling asleep to the sound of the surf. The hotel also offers She ethnic costume rentals, so you can wear traditional attire and take photos by the lake, adding a special charm. Ningde Boli Hotel is also highly recommended, with a lakeside promenade and panoramic terrace offering breathtaking views of Ningde’s mountains and sea. A five-minute walk takes you to the Wetland Park and Jin Shetou Fishing Village, where in the evening you can taste freshly caught seafood, so fresh it seems to still carry the salty scent of the sea breeze. Practical tips 1. Best season: Late spring to early summer, when rhododendrons bloom on Taimao Mountain and Baishuiyang’s water temperature is just right 2. Transportation: High-speed rail directly to Ningde Station; taxis or car rentals available for city attractions 3. Food: Fuding pork slices, betel nut taro, She ethnic black rice, oyster pancakes—each a must-try 4. Suggested itinerary: 3 days 2 nights, one day for Taimao Mountain, one day for Sandu'ao + Baishuiyang When leaving Ningde, I suddenly recalled the line "Spending the night by East Lake, the cold night sleepless but feeling light." Here, time slows down so much you can hear flowers blooming and see the clouds rolling and unfolding. Ningde is not a hurried stopover, but a poetic destination worth lingering for.

Spring flower viewing is in full swing at Swan Creek Ecological Park in Badu Town, Jiaocheng District! Peach blossoms and magnolias bloom simultaneously in the park, creating a poetic scene of "half crimson, half snow-white." The peach blossoms blaze brightly, their branches fiery and intense, with a pink glow that shimmers; as the wind passes, the flower branches gently tremble, as if warmly greeting visitors. The magnolias bloom elegantly and quietly, some in bud slightly revealing like a shy maiden covering her face, others fully open like snow falling against the blue sky, their subtle fragrance drifting, calming the mind and spirit. Amid the contrast of red and white, distant mountains layer in green, streams babble gently, petals float lightly on the water, and winding paths meander through the floral shadows, as if stepping into a springtime painting from Tang poetry or Song lyrics. Strolling here, you can listen to the stream and flowers, quietly smell the fragrance, and slowly enjoy the fresh mountain air, finding healing and relaxation in this natural sanctuary away from the city's hustle and bustle. Come to Badu and join a springtime rendezvous right at your doorstep!

Press close to the rock crevice to hear the "3D surround sound" of the waves. At low tide, crawl inside where sunlight streams through holes, like entering a deep-sea secret realm🌊 Circle the rock three times for good luck, they say～ [11][12] 2. Doumu Maze (Natural Escape Room) A 300-meter, nine-level winding rock maze with varying heights, super fun! Take kids on the children’s path, young people try the challenge path, using hands and feet to navigate, full sense of achievement✅ Remember to wear non-slip shoes, it’s damp and slippery inside! 3. Coastal Plank Road (Cliffside Sea View Spot) A 322-meter plank road carved into a sheer cliff, below is the blue Guan Jingyang Sea, with fishing rafts dotting the distance. The light is softest from 3-5 pm, perfect for stunning sea photos! The sea breeze soothes all fatigue. 4. Wufu Strange Stones (Blessing Check-in Spot) Five stones representing "Fortune, Prosperity, Longevity, Happiness, Wealth" vividly shaped. Touch the gold ingot for wealth, hold the scholar’s hat for academic success, great to bring elders, full of meaning📚 [12] 5. Colorful Fishing Village (Beautiful View from Afar) The houses in Xiadangwei Village across the water look like a spilled palette, red, blue, and yellow mixed, paired with blue sea and sky, every shot looks like a healing oil painting🎨 🍽️ Food, Accommodation & Travel Tips｜Practical Advice Food Guide Only small shops on the island, prices are high, bring your own water and snacks! For seafood, go back to Ningde city or nearby pier restaurants, buy fresh and have it cooked on the spot. Watch the weighing carefully, prices are posted on paper to avoid scams [3]. Accommodation Suggestions Doumu Island is mainly for half-day trips. If you want to stay by the sea, we recommend Baixiang Sandu Ao Hotel in Ningde city, with lake view rooms and yellow croaker feast, easy to return to the island next day; homestays may be damp, buggy, and have unstable water pressure, weekdays are cheaper. ⚠️ Avoid Pitfalls 1. Clothing: Light-colored clothes look better in photos, non-slip sports shoes are a must, plank roads and maze are hard on feet and slippery 2. Protection: Strong UV on sunny days, bring sunglasses, sunscreen, hats; many mosquitoes by the sea, don’t forget repellent! [5] 3. Equipment: Fully charge your phone, signal is weak in the maze, can be used as a flashlight; bring a wide-angle lens for more stunning Conch Rock shots 4. Others: Doumu Goddess statue is a Taoist sacred site, do not climb; carry out your trash to protect the island’s beauty [17] ✨ Final Thoughts No need to travel far, Fujian has such a hidden gem. On Doumu Island, you can temporarily escape the city noise, daydream in the sea breeze, explore the maze, and marvel at nature’s wonders in the strange rocks. Life sometimes needs a spontaneous short trip, not just for checking off places, but to regain inner relaxation. This weekend, don’t stay home—come to Doumu Island and claim your slice of sea happiness!

Truly moved to tears by this lesser-known island in Fujian! So few people that it feels like you have the entire island to yourself. Coastal boardwalk, rock maze, colorful fishing village… every snapshot is a healing masterpiece. This guide will help you unlock this peaceful beauty～ 📍 Address & Transportation: Super convenient for self-driving - Location: Doumu Island, Ningde City - Self-driving: Navigate to "Doumu Island Pier." Free parking is available by the roadside near the pier (just park properly without blocking the road). About 1 hour from the city center, with sea views along the way to lift your mood in advance～ 🚤 Island Access Guide: Chartering a boat is more flexible - Charter boat: Ask the pier restaurant owner for the boat captain’s number. Our group of three adults and two kids paid 180 RMB round trip. You can leave anytime without waiting for public boats, very convenient with kids (public boats run infrequently and may require queuing during peak season). - Cost reference: Entrance fee 30 RMB/person, children over 1.2 meters 20 RMB, sightseeing shuttle 10 RMB/person (if you don’t want to walk, you can take the shuttle and enjoy the sea breeze comfortably). 🗺️ Half-day Essential Route Pier → Coastal Boardwalk → Rock Maze → Luoke Rock → Colorful Fishing Village → Return Leisurely pace, don’t miss any beautiful spots～ 1. Coastal Boardwalk: You’ll be amazed by this boardwalk as soon as you arrive! It winds along the coastline with clear water beneath your feet and fishing rafts dotting the distance. You’ll want to stop and take photos every few steps. The sea breeze on your face is so healing you won’t want to leave. 2. Rock Maze: The island’s “adventure spot”! The elevation changes are quite big, and crawling through the rock crevices feels like navigating a maze. Great for kids to burn off energy (for those with mobility issues or elderly, there’s a separate path for children and seniors). From the high point, the maze looks like nature’s “prank,” super fun. 3. Luoke Rock: A landmark in the middle of the island route, this huge rock shaped like a sea conch is embedded by the sea. Standing beneath it, you can gaze at Xiadangwei Island across the water. The houses in the colorful fishing village look like a spilled palette—red, blue, yellow—perfect for photos. Recommended to visit in the afternoon when the light is soft and not harsh. 4. Return by sightseeing shuttle: When tired, take the shuttle back while enjoying the sea breeze and scenery along the way. The driver is steady and you can chat with him to hear some island stories. 💡 Practical Tips - Outfit: Wear comfortable, non-slip shoes (the rock maze and boardwalk can be a bit rough on your feet). Light-colored clothes match perfectly with the blue sea and sky, making photos fresh and photogenic. - Sun protection: UV rays are strong on sunny days, so bring a hat, sunglasses, and sunscreen to avoid getting sunburned～ - Timing: Half a day is enough. Fewer people in the morning, and you can return in the afternoon before sunset to enjoy a romantic sea sunset. The beauty of Doumu Island lies in its “wild” and peaceful nature—no commercial hustle, just waves, rocks, and the simple life of a fishing village. No need to rush here, walk slowly, take photos slowly, and turn your days into seaside poetry～

The architecture here combines the orderliness of Song-style ancient buildings with the liveliness of Fujian local residences. Between the blue tiles and stone walls, every corner is a concrete expression of Eastern aesthetics. 📸 Photo Masterpiece · Unlocking Framed Scene Aesthetics ✅ Vase-shaped framed view: The vase-shaped window carved out of the white wall frames the green pines inside the courtyard. The natural symmetrical composition exudes sophistication. Stand next to it in modern Chinese attire, and you instantly become a figure in a Song Dynasty painting. ✅ Tile detail: Capture the texture of the blue-gray tile ends and the red wall surface with a macro lens, instantly filling the image with the texture of time. ✅ Zen corner: The stone table, bamboo shadows, and ancient buildings in the courtyard complement each other. Brew a pot of tea and sit quietly; as the evening breeze passes, even your hair feels relaxed. ✅ Light and shadow moment: In the afternoon, sunlight slants across, casting shadows of the red walls onto the bluestone slabs. The interplay of light and dark creates an atmosphere that is simply divine. 🍵 Slow Down · Immersive Zen Experience Unlike the hustle and bustle of ancient temples in busy cities, Baofu Temple carries a peacefulness of "dwelling in the world without the noise of horses and carriages." When tired from walking, find a tea seat in the courtyard, brew a pot of local clear tea, watch the light and shadow flow along the eaves, and listen to the gentle sound of wind through the treetops. All restlessness can be soothed by this Zen ambiance. 📍 Practical Travel Guide ▫️ Address: Pukou Village, Pukou Town, Lianjiang County, Fuzhou City (Navigate directly to "Baofu Temple") ▫️ Transportation: Recommended to drive (about 1.5 hours from Fuzhou, free parking available at the village entrance); no direct bus, public transport requires transfer to a rural bus. ▫️ Dress code: Modern Chinese style, plain cotton and linen, Hanfu match best with the red walls and blue tiles here; avoid overly bright clashing colors. ▫️ Tips: The temple is free to enter.
