A Crane-Shaped Road Adventure! A Thousand-Year Time Tunnel in Songkou Ancient Town, Yongtai 🚪 🏮A Living Fossil of Ancient Houses: The Unique Crane-Shaped Road! Winding like a crane's neck, each stone slab tells a 600-year-old story—even more beautiful in the rain! 📍Address: Approximately 250 meters northeast of Songkouqi Inn, G534, Yongtai County, Fuzhou City, Fujian Province 🚌Transportation Tips: 1. 1.5 hours drive from Fuzhou (navigate to "Songkou Ancient Town Parking Lot") 2. Take a bus from Fuzhou West Railway Station to Yongtai, then transfer to a rural bus to Songkou. 🌧️Best Experience: The bluestone slabs gleam in the light rain, perfect for taking photos with an oil-paper umbrella! 🕰️Time Travel Route: 1️⃣ Starting Point of Crane-Shaped Road: The only crane-shaped ancient road in the country! Find the perfect angle by following the S-shaped bluestone slabs; the animal heads on the eaves make for a stunning backdrop! 📸Tips: Capture depth at the corners; on rainy days, use the reflection of the red lanterns from the guesthouse. 2️⃣ Ba Kui Cuo (No. 28, Daonan Village) A three-courtyard Ming and Qing dynasty mansion! Pay special attention to the "Filial Piety and Friendship Passed Down Through Generations" wood carving on the lintel; there's a hidden camera spot on the parapet wall on the second floor of the backyard. 3️⃣ Ancient Banyan Square Drink Dazhangxi white tea under a 300-year-old banyan tree; locals play chess here. There's a projection show in the evening! 4️⃣ Wan'an Fort (Provincial Highway 203) Fujian Tulou defensive style! A five-story watchtower hides the ruins of a Republican-era school; the top floor offers panoramic views of the ancient town. 🍜Three Must-Try Delicacies: * **Egg Swallow:** "Yongtai Italian Pasta" made with sweet potato starch, 8 yuan per bowl at a small shop in the ancient town. * **Nine-Layer Rice Cake:** Rice cake steamed with sugarcane juice, a unique three-layer texture. * **Plum Dried Feast:** Sour fish soup made with dried plums by locals—a great appetizer! ⚠️Avoidance Guidelines: • Some alleys are unlit after dark; it's recommended to finish exploring before 5 PM. • Do not touch the door knockers of old houses! Many are antique bronze artifacts. • Folk performances (making glutinous rice cakes/storytelling) are only available on weekends. #YongtaiTourism #OffTheBeatenPathAncientTownsOfFujian #HexingRoadTrip #FuzhouSurroundingTrips #AncientArchitecturePhotography
