Quanzhou

Key historical sites include Kaiyuan Temple, Qingjing Mosque (one of China's oldest mosques), the Maritime Museum, and the ancient city walls. These sites offer a glimpse into Quanzhou's rich past as a major port city on the Maritime Silk Road.

Don't miss the opportunity to savor local specialties like 'Mianxian' (thin noodles), oyster omelets, and various seafood dishes. Street food markets and local restaurants offer a delightful culinary experience.

The best time to visit Quanzhou is during the spring (March-May) and autumn (September-November) when the weather is mild and pleasant. Summers can be hot and humid, while winters are generally short and mild.
