A 3-Day Fuzhou City Walk Itinerary

Hey friends😘, today I'm sharing a fantastic City Walk route in Fujian.

📅DAY1️⃣：
First, visit the Fujian Museum🏛️. Follow the suggested route: "Fu Hang Tian Xia" → Noah's Ark🛶 → "Light of Fujian Civilization". Next to the museum is West Lake Park, where the shimmering lake is truly beautiful🧐. Take bus No. 71 or No. 109 and get off at West Lake Station. Remember, the museum is open from 9:00 to 17:30 (closed on Mondays).
Next, head to Sanfang Qixiang (Three Lanes and Seven Alleys). It's a 10-minute bike ride from the museum. You can follow this route: Confucian Temple → Wuta Pagoda → Lin Zexu Memorial Hall🏛️ → Heart Tree → Ye Family Residence. This area is free to visit all day long🤩.
Finally, visit Xichan Temple. If you're on a pilgrimage, follow this route: Hall of Heavenly Kings → Mahavira Hall🕍 → Scripture Depository → Jade Buddha Hall → Meditation Hall🧘‍♂️ → Pagoda of Relics. The entrance fee is CNY 20💰. You can get there by e-bike or bus.

📅DAY2️⃣：
Gushan Mountain is a great place to visit. Take Exit A from Gushan Station on Line 2🚇. You can take the cable car up the mountain, visit the pagoda to enjoy the view of Wansong Bay🌲, and then take the cable car back down. Check the weather forecast before you go, as it can be windy on the cable car, and you don't want to catch a cold😉. The bus costs CNY 10, and a round-trip cable car ticket is CNY 70 per person.
Afterwards, head to Yantaishan Park. Take Exit B from Teng subway station to Yantaishan Park🏞️. Walk along Lequn Road to Cangqian Road. There are many Instagrammable spots here, such as the historical Min Customs Official Residence, the retro 1912 Highway Store, the sacred Shicuo Church⛪, the ruins of the former US Consulate, and the Fuzhou character white wall art. This park is also free to visit all day long🎉.

📅DAY3️⃣：
Pingtan Island is incredibly beautiful. You can choose adventure route one: Longwangtou Beach → Yuyu Village🏠 → Changjiang’ao Windmill Farm → Beibu Gulf Ecological Corridor → Maotouqian Fishing Village → Heping Village. Or you can choose adventure route two: Houyan Island → Tannan Bay/Tianmei’ao Beach → Jiangjun Mountain → Dafu Bay → Xiangbi Bay🐘.
Finally, visit Qida Village. Be sure to navigate to "Qiguan Ding" and climb to the top. From the stone monument, you can hike🚶‍♂️for 40–60 minutes or drive🚗up. The scenery is amazing, and it's a great way to challenge yourself💪.

🧐For accommodation, I recommend staying near Sanfang Qixiang.
