    This is my second time in Fujian. I didn’t come here last time when I came with local friends because I thought it was just a pile of dirt and they didn’t want to bring me here. This time I can finally come here on my own. The buildings are so unique, so great!

    Scenic area that is walkable from end to end. Can complete in half a day. If travelling with elderly people that cannot walk much, it is possible to engage a certified guide at the entrance for 100 yuan for a group. The guide can provide transport depending on what they have (scooter/ car) to bring you from attraction to attraction. We visited the main attractions in less than 2 hours with a car. At the end of the tour, the guide suggest for you to drink tea at their "home" as a way to bring you to a tea shop.
