Compared with West Street, I love this traditional ancient village of Quanzhou more…

Listen to me❗️Don’t just know West Street when you come to Quanzhou
Don't miss this 600-year-old traditional ancient village‼ ️
Various southern Fujian buildings and Western-style buildings gather in one village
Put on a Nyonya dress and stroll through the old houses
It's like a dream of the old days in Nanyang
The key is that you don’t have to squeeze in with the crowd❗️You must come here when you come to Quanzhou‼ ️
Keep the guide⬇️The surrounding routes are attached at the end of the article‼ ️

📷Must-check-in during your visit:

✅ East Building (P1)
It is the first western-style building in Wulin and also the first landmark building upon entering the scenic area. The entrance and the atrium are both great for taking photos

✅Qiaopi Pavilion (P2, P4, P7, P11 lower right)
The Spanish Gothic-style building, built with red bricks from southern Fujian, was where overseas Chinese used to exchange letters with their relatives back home. There are many camera positions here: shooting from the first floor up, or taking panoramic views of the ancient village from the second floor are all very good.

✅ Gun Tower (P3, P9)
Also known as "Xiuyang Building", it was originally built to protect the safety of the people of Wulin Village and resist invasions by bandits. Later, it became a gathering place for overseas Chinese and local celebrities. You need to pay to visit the building (30 yuan), and you can overlook the whole village from the top.

✅Five-storey house (P5)
It got its name because it has five floors. It was designed by a British designer at the time, and all the steel bars and cement used were purchased from abroad.

✅Zanghaicuo (P6, P9, P10)
The mural system created by the famous artist Wen Na in Quanzhou over a period of three years is exhibited in Dema House, a traditional village in Wulin. This time I came to Wulin just in time for the "Searching for Art in Mountains and Seas" Art Festival, and I got to see the real thing 🤩It was really shocking! Anyone interested can come to Wulin to see it from now until 11:30! There are many other exhibitions in the village. During the National Day, there are markets, street graffiti, hand-painting and other activities, which are very lively👏

✅Banyan Tree Coffee/Juruo Coffee
These two cafes are perfect for a break and both have nice environments. There are two big banyan trees in the yard under the banyan tree, and the environment is very quiet. There are many internet celebrity camera positions in Juruo store. Just choose according to your preferences
