Perhaps it is because there are too many diverse scenic spots in Fujian, or perhaps Yongning in Shishi is too peaceful, in Fujian, people always forget a place called "Yongning". Perhaps it is because of people's forgetfulness that Yongning has become more secretive and peaceful. In this world where the pace of life is accelerating, Yongning will only make your heart slow down a little bit more☕️
This ancient town, located in Shishi City, Fujian Province, was built in 1394, the 27th year of the Hongwu reign of the Ming Dynasty. It is one of the three great citadels in Chinese history. In the 27th year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty, the imperial court established the "Yongning Guard" here to defend against Japanese pirates. At that time, it was as famous as Tianjin and Weihaiwei. 🎏Walking into the ancient city is like walking into a historical maze. From the tall city walls built in the Ming Dynasty as the front line of coastal defense, to the Yongning Old Street that witnessed the active trade between Fujian and Taiwan after the Qing Dynasty recovered Taiwan, to the "Fangzilou" built by returning overseas Chinese in the 1940s...the quiet ancient town and the cultural atmosphere that blows in your face will make you linger. 🦋Here you can find the popular City God Temple, the pure urban life of the Minnan people, the unique and authentic Minnan cuisine, the Minnan spirit of "only hard work can win", and the beautiful sea view! The name "Yongning" confirms the ancient people's beautiful vision of keeping this land peaceful forever. 🌟
