Where did the name Quanzhou come from?
It is said that the name of spring involves mountains and rivers. The main mountain range in Quanzhou is Qingyuan Mountain in the northern suburb. Because there is a milky white Quanzhou flowing out of the cave on the mountain, it is named "Qingyuan", also known as "Quanshan". The name of the state comes from the name of this mountain.
Erythrina originated in the Five Dynasties, when Quanzhou introduced Erythrina from Southeast Asia and other places. At that time, when managers expanded the city wall, Erythrina could be seen everywhere, so it was called Erythrina City. After that, Kyle Poirot brought his name back to Europe, and since then, Erythrina has become famous all over the world.
It is said that whether this is true or not remains to be studied, but it doesn't matter to me. The important thing is that I love this town.
Living in this small town, poetry and distance are often close at hand.
Love the sea!
Facing the sea, you can get up early to watch the sunrise, watch the sunset at night, and even take your family and friends camping at the beach at night. The sea here is as gentle and quiet as this town, but it changes endlessly. Shishi has Gold Coast, Jinjiang has Weitou Bay, Hui 'an has Chongwu Ancient City, Xisha Bay, Moon Bay and many unknown beaches. It basically takes 40 to 50 minutes to drive from the city center.
The beautiful seaside also has fresh and delicious seafood. At sunset, find a stall at the seaside, face the sea breeze, eat seafood, chew with the afterglow of sunset and the noise next to it. This summer is extremely pleasant!
If you have children, you can take them to the beach to play with water and dig sand. One after another, "barefoot" chased the waves and had a good time. Laughter swept into the sea, and grandpa Hai laughed with it, revealing white waves. There are often speedboats on the beach. If you are brave, you might as well challenge the excitement and pleasure of galloping on the vast sea.
If you are a couple, dating at the seaside is very romantic. The sea breeze is blowing on the silent seaside, holding hands and looking at the boundless sea, listening to the sound of the ebb and flow of the tide. The lives of two people seem to be closer.

I love it! Eat it!
Every time I go to a place, I look for local food. For twenty or thirty years, Quanzhou did not fully understand it. Quanzhou's authentic food is drilled in a dilapidated and deep alley. "The smell of wine is not afraid of the depth of the alley", which is the snack bar in Quanzhou.
At this point, I agree with the town.
I don't love those chain restaurants. I can always find the smell of getting into the alley. Find a sunny leisure time, ride a bike or donkey, and wander in the complicated and lonely alleys extending in all directions. There is a lively pastry shop, where beef soup and salty rice are noisy, and there are long queues of fried vinegar and meat in front, and the vegetable heads are sour when they are out of stock.
In addition, there are fried oysters, frozen bamboo shoots, ginger duck, Honglai chicken feet, moist cakes and vegetables, jiaozi with minced meat, all-fried cakes, fish rolls and four fruit soup ... There are many kinds of delicious foods, which are delicious, delicious and delicious, but I'm afraid your stomach won't hold up.
? I like it. Let's go
(Walking: it means walking freely and playing around)
The places I like to play and go are not in bars and other entertainment places, but in mountains, seaside, fields and deep forests ... Yes, Quanzhou, I haven't been there yet.
Niumulin and Baizhangyan in Yongchun, Jiuxian Mountain and Daixian Waterfall in Dehua, Jiuri Mountain in Nan 'an, Zimao Mountain in Jinjiang, Qingyuan Mountain and West Lake in downtown ... There are all kinds of bookstores and cafes full of literary atmosphere, which are enough to fill your holiday and your leisure.
? I like taking pictures!
In this small town, there are inexhaustible scenery. Speaking of shooting, I prefer Licheng. Accustomed to living in the old city, I found this place full of strong and unique charm.
With your camera, you can shoot the sunset of Kaiyuan Temple on the rooftop of West Street in a few minutes, enjoy the various scenery of West Lake at different times, shoot several characteristic cafes in Huaqiao New Village, and record the flight and habitat of egrets on Jiang Bin Road. ...
Don't look for it deliberately, there are scenes everywhere, and it is worth recording at any time.

I like exploring!
This town has a history and culture that you can't see with the naked eye.
If you are there, you can go to Shaolin Temple and feel the long history of southern Wushu. If you are there, you can listen to the living fossil Nanyin in the history of China music and listen to the wonderful notes of Minnan traditional music, a world-class intangible cultural heritage; If you are there, you can go to the puppet theater to see the puppet show and enjoy the breathtaking fine art; If you are there, you can visit the border between Fujian and Taiwan, learn about the history of Taiwan Province Province across the sea, and feel the cross-strait origins.
In addition, there are Liyuan Opera, Gaojia Opera, Beiguan, Breast-beating Dance, Wuzu Boxing, Lantern, Dehua Ceramics, Hui 'an Stone Carving, Yongchun Paper Weaving Painting, Hui 'an Women's Costume, Xunpu Women's Custom, Luoyang Bridge ... This city has too many long and profound cultures and folk customs, which are worth exploring by everyone.
……
Living in this small town, even if you don't travel far, you will feel poetic. When Bai came to the fountain, he left a sentence: Quanzhou, this is the city you must go to at least once in your life! This ancient town may not surprise you at first sight, but it is worth savoring. Its charm is as profound as its history and culture.
? It's over.
