Qingyuan Mountain: The Enchanting Peak of Quanzhou

Visiting Qingyuan Mountain feels like stepping into a mystical paradise. This renowned mountain in Quanzhou has long been celebrated as the 'First Mountain in Central Fujian.' From its summit, one can take in the breathtaking views of Quanzhou city, with its rolling hills and misty clouds blending seamlessly with the sky, inspiring endless reverie. Ascending the ancient stone steps, flanked by lush greenery, the fresh air carries a faint scent of pine, invigorating the senses. Along the way, visitors encounter variously shaped boulders, the most famous being the Laojun Rock Statue. This Taoist sculpture, weathered by a thousand years, remains majestic and solemn, quietly guarding this sacred land. Additionally, Qingyuan Mountain is dotted with springs, the most renowned being the 'Qingyuan Sweet Dew,' known for its sweet and refreshing taste, seemingly imbued with the blessings of nature. A trip to Qingyuan Mountain is not only a feast for the eyes but also a spiritual journey. The harmonious blend of natural beauty and cultural heritage offers visitors tranquility and inner satisfaction, making it an unmissable gem in Quanzhou's travel itinerary.
