🌊Fuzhou's Yantai Mountain | A Romantic Collision of Century-Old Western-Style Buildings and River Views
Yantai Mountain is Fuzhou's "city cover." Stepping in is like stepping into a time tunnel, a fusion of Eastern and Western influences. The river breeze mingles with the charm of the old buildings, making it perfect for a leisurely stroll. 📸
📍Must-Try Route:
From the entrance of Yantai Mountain Park, ascend the mountain. First, climb the tower for a panoramic view of both sides of the Minjiang River. Then, stroll along Maiyuan Road, past century-old Western-style buildings. The red brick arched windows exude an exotic feel, creating a retro feel in every photo. After descending, explore Wanfu Street, where you'll find stylish cultural and creative shops and cafes. When you're tired, relax with a drink and enjoy the river view.
🍜Food Recommendations:
• "Old Fuzhou" offers fish ball soup and lychee meat, authentic Fujian cuisine that's incredibly fresh;
• "Zhu Zi Fang Pig Pork Shop" offers tender and flavorful pig trotters, perfect with rice;
• Omelettes from street vendors are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and delicious with the sweet and spicy sauce.
💡Tips:
Going in the evening is best for taking photos of the buildings during the day and watching the lights come on at night. Wear comfortable flat shoes to make the mountain walks easier.
