Quanzhou Stroll|In the ancient city alleys, encounter the many faces of the East and West Towers

Who understands the joy of chasing tower shadows through the alleys?! The ancient city of Quanzhou hides so many surprises: 1️⃣ Turn into Xiangfeng Alley, and the East Tower’s spire suddenly peeks out from behind the red brick wall of the alley, creating a photo with great depth; 2️⃣ In San Chao Alley, there is a small pavilion where the West Tower faces the old houses in the alley. When the sunlight slants, the shadows stretch long, making every snapshot feel timeless; 3️⃣ Outside the gate of the Nanwai Zongzhengsi Ruins Exhibition Hall on Gufeng Alley, looking through the gate’s crack at the East Tower, the scattered light falls on the small spire, hazy and photogenic~ No need to specifically look for photo spots, just leisurely wander around the ancient city. At some corner or in front of an old courtyard gate, you might capture the twin towers in a different pose. This is the true romance of strolling through Quanzhou’s ancient city~
