Wait for Me! Quanzhou's 'Fairy Tale World' and 'Coastal Scenery'
Wonderland—Zhangjiao Village
Arrive in Zhangjiao Village, Quanzhou, it's as if you've stepped into a fairytale world. Stone-paved steps, stone-paved houses, it's like a colorful stone village.

The village has a camphor tree that is over 700 years old. Climbing to the top of the tree, you can overlook the village, and Zhangjiao Village got its name because of this. The walls are built with stones, each stone house is connected end to end, alleyways lead to alleyways, and winding paths are mysterious and charming.
Walking through the stone lanes paved with pebbles, you can touch colorful, mottled stone walls. Old vines entwined around the walls add a sense of vicissitude. In the sunlight, the stones appear in shades of red-brown, gray, and dark green, like an oil painting.
When you come to Zhangjiao Village, you must try its specialty—bean curd. This bean curd is a semi-dried product and a top-quality ingredient in vegetarian cuisine.
Island Scenery—Huiji Island
Huiji Island is the only island administrative village in Quanzhou, belonging to Quanzhou District, and is a village mainly based on fisheries and leisure tourism,
The island has complete infrastructure, including water, electricity, communications, and transportation. It has a superior geographical location, beautiful island scenery, rich human history, excellent seawater quality, and a unique original ecological appearance.
The island is constantly accompanied by the sea and seabirds, with lush forests, towering rocks, clean beaches, and blue seas. The environment is quiet and the air is fresh, with simple local customs and a long-lived population. Everything retains the original island charm.
In recent years, the island has opened up Jinfu Palace, Shenjing Guangquan, Dezheng Stele, Shengwa Stone, and Stone carvings of famous figures, as well as Nanwei Mountain. In addition, watching the 10,000-ton oil wharf, large oil tankers, floating fish cages, and the sunrise and sunset at sea are also very attractive.
