Nanping Hezhangyan Scenic Area is located 3 kilometers west of Shunchang County in Nanping City, Fujian Province, with the main peak at an elevation of 551.7 meters.

Xiadigu Ancient Village: Within 800 years of yellow walls lies undisturbed morning light Just after the car passed the last mountain ridge of Pingnan County, a vast expanse of yellow appeared—not the bright yellow of rapeseed flowers, but a dark yellow soaked by rain, carrying the scent of grass and wood. Under the old banyan tree at the village entrance, an elderly man sat on a bluestone slab weaving bamboo baskets. Seeing us, he only lifted his eyelids slightly: "There’s not much to see in the village, just a few old houses and some fields." 🏡 Yellow walls are the earth’s skin, black tiles are the sky’s scales “This wall ‘breathes,’” said Uncle Zheng, the village party secretary, as he touched the wall of an old house, his fingers tracing the uneven texture. “The rammed earth mixed with straw and bamboo fibers absorbs water when it rains and breathes when it’s dry. It’s much smarter than cement houses.” Embedded in the moss at the wall’s base were a few Ming Dynasty roof tiles, their patterns worn into faint shadows by time. The village resembles a layered cake cradled by the mountain hollow, with over 60 rammed earth houses stacked along the slope. The swallowtail ridges carve graceful arcs across the rooftops. In a narrow alley, sunlight squeezed through the gap between two houses, casting slender light spots on the bluestone slabs. At the end stood an old woman carrying water; her swaying buckets broke her shadow into fragments. 📖 The bookstore in the middle of the rice fields reads the clouds into its pages The Vanguard Bookstore is tucked at the end of the rice paddies, its rammed earth walls enclosing a glass room, like a window opened for the old house to watch the fields. Opening the door, the scent of wooden bookshelves mixed with the fragrance of rice flowers wafted out. Someone sat on a cushion in front of a row of books, a book spread on their knees, but their eyes gazed out the window—where egrets were stirring the reflection of yellow walls and black tiles in the water with their feet. “This used to be a cattle pen,” said Xiao Chen from the bookstore, pointing at the beams. “The rafters are still old, but the smell of cow dung has been replaced by the fragrance of ink.” The window seat was the most coveted spot; looking up, clouds drifted across the sky, looking down, words lingered on the paper. Occasionally, the wind rustled the pages and rice leaves together, as if exchanging secret signals. 🌾 Life on the ridges is so slow you can count every grain of rice At five in the morning, the ridges awaken. An old man leads a water buffalo through, its hooves sinking into the mud with a “plop,” startling a few grasshoppers. The reflections in the rice paddies remain undisturbed—yellow walls, black tiles, sky, and clouds all submerged in the water, rippling gently in the breeze. On a family’s grain-drying platform, an old woman was turning over rice grains. The patterns left by her wooden rake resembled the wrinkles on her face. “Most young people have left the village,” she smiled, “but the grain still needs planting, and the houses still need repairing. Otherwise, Xiadigu will be empty.” Under the eaves, a few baby swallows poked their heads out, waiting for their parents to bring insects. Practical Guide · Transportation: 1.5 hours by car from Ningde Station (take the Yongguan Expressway → exit at Pingnan, navigate to “Xiadigu Ancient Village,” the last 5 kilometers are cement roads, narrow but easy to drive); about 80 yuan by charter from Gutian North Station, 1-hour ride, free parking at the village entrance. · Must-do activities: Order a cup of “Pingnan Old Tea” (15 yuan) at the bookstore, pick a book about ancient architecture, and spend the afternoon reading; learn to weave bamboo baskets with the old woman under the banyan tree at the village entrance (she teaches simple patterns); get up at 5 a.m. to photograph reflections in the rice paddies (bring a wide-angle lens, shoot against the light for the best shots). · Hidden details: Find the “tree in the wall” (a fig tree growing inside the rammed earth wall of an old house, its roots pushing cracks in the wall but also shielding it from wind and rain); look for “grass on the tiles” (in the gaps of the swallowtail ridge tiles grows hanging grass, locals say “grass growing on tiles means the home prospers”). When leaving, the old man’s bamboo basket was almost finished, the bamboo strips bending obediently in his hands. Looking back, the yellow walls turned a warm earthy gold in the dusk, the bookstore’s light leaked from the glass room, falling onto the rice paddies like a scattering of stars. It turns out the true secret places are not spectacular wonders hidden deep in the mountains, but corners where time slows down willingly, accompanying old houses and old rice fields to live well. Where is the place in your heart you most “don’t want to be disturbed”? Quietly tell me in the comments~

This winter, I discovered an almost isolated uninhabited island in the waters of Ningde, Fujian—Taishan Island. There are no tourists or shops on the island, only a lonely lighthouse standing guard and countless seagulls flying all around. Standing on the rocks, the only sounds are the wind, waves, and seagull cries, as if the noise of the whole world has been swallowed by the sea. Transportation Guide: Take the high-speed train to "Fuding Station" or "Tailaoshan Station," then take a taxi or bus to the docks at Shacheng Town or Qinyu Town. There are only a few civilian boats per week to Taishan Island (about 2 hours), so be sure to contact the boat operator in advance to confirm the schedule. There is no public transportation on the island; walking is the only way to get around. 2-Day Immersive Itinerary: · Day 1: Arrive on the island · Neighboring the seagulls Take a boat in the morning to Taishan Island and check into the island’s only fishermen’s guesthouse (basic conditions). In the afternoon, hike to Umbrella Reef and the lighthouse, where thousands of seagulls circle near the cliffs. In the evening, wait under the lighthouse for a sunset over the sea, with the entire sky dyed orange-red. · Day 2: Circle the island · Explore the sea erosion wonders Early morning visit to the "One Line Sky" and "Sleeping Buddha" rock formations to see the sea waves crashing against sea erosion caves formed over millions of years. At noon, pack up, say goodbye to the seagulls, and take the boat back. Must-Do Experiences: 1. Lighthouse Watch: The red and white lighthouse is the island’s only landmark, perfect for capturing lonely-themed photos. 2. Seagull Encounter: Bring some small biscuits or bread, and the seagulls will flock right above your head. 3. Umbrella Reef: A giant reef shaped like an umbrella, the best spot to watch the sea and listen to the waves. 4. Stargazing Camping: If the weather is clear, lie on the rocks and see the dazzling Milky Way with the naked eye. Warm Tips: · There are no commercial facilities on the island, so be sure to bring your own food, drinking water, power bank, and common medicines. · Boat schedules are highly affected by weather; confirm with the boat operator before departure and allow 1-2 days of flexible time. · Protect your food and hats in seagull gathering areas, as they will boldly try to snatch them. · Wear non-slip sports shoes; the rocks are slippery, and do not climb dangerous cliffs.

I made a special trip to Ningde this weekend to attend a relative's homecoming banquet, and the entire experience was fantastic!

Seeing elders present, they were thoughtfully assisted, showing meticulous attention to detail and making us feel truly at home. 🏨【The Venue is Superb】 The banquet hall was exceptionally spacious, with a pillar-free design offering excellent views. The decor was beautiful, and the lighting and sound effects were superb, creating a warm and lively atmosphere for the entire homecoming banquet.

Yangjiaxi, a village in northern Xiapu, is nestled in a valley where clouds and mist linger year-round, earning it the nickname "Cloud Tea Garden." The tea garden is located on slopes over 600 meters above sea level, with the entire hillside covered in tea trees stretching endlessly. Standing atop the hill, the lush greenery is refreshing and uplifting. Many hardworking tea farmers work in the garden, dressed simply and wearing bamboo hats as they diligently pick tea leaves. The tea varieties grown here are Fuding Dabai tea and Fuding Dahao tea, known for their fresh, natural taste and fragrant aroma. Besides the tea-picking season, the sea of clouds here is also spectacular. Especially at sunrise, the clouds roll and surge, with sunlight filtering through and casting enchanting scenes over the mountain terraced fields. From the hilltop, the sea of clouds looks like a fairyland drifting in the mist. Such breathtaking beauty can only be truly felt by standing on the mountain peak! If you love natural scenery, enjoy photography, or are a tea enthusiast, you definitely shouldn’t miss this place!

Some places are meant to be passed through quickly; others are worth staying in, waiting patiently for the light to shine. Xiapu belongs to the latter. A Rendezvous with Mountains and Sea Departing from Wenzhou by high-speed rail, in just over an hour, the scenery outside the window gradually transformed from the concrete jungle of the city to rolling mountains and a winding coastline. A twenty-minute taxi ride from the station, and the driver, familiar with the area, took me to Dongbi Village—the heart of Xiapu's seascape. The journey was so fast, it felt like I'd only had time to listen to an album, yet I'd already completed a complete emotional transition from city to seaside. First Impression of Sijian Canghai The guesthouse is tucked away on the seaside side of the village, with no ostentatious entrance, its understated elegance seemingly designed to escape the hustle and bustle. The moment I pushed open that vintage door, I instinctively exclaimed "Wow!" The setting sun cast its golden rays, shimmering on the water, and a few fishing boats lay quietly moored in the distance—a scene so peaceful it seemed unreal. The guesthouse's design is minimalist and restrained—gray walls, cement, and old tropical wooden furniture, with no superfluous decorations. Large floor-to-ceiling windows frame the sea view like flowing paintings; as you move inside, the scenery outside changes. The morning light and shadow, the evening glow, the ever-changing textures of the mudflats at high and low tides—every moment is different. My room was called "Westward," a perfectly chosen name. I could see the sea from my bed, the curtains half-open. I was awakened by the first rays of sunlight and the faint chirping of birds in the morning; it felt like living inside the folds of time, quiet and soft, making me reluctant to get out of bed. Time here moves slowly. At Sijian Canghai, there's no need to rush. There's no pressure, only relaxation. Evening is the most beautiful time of day in Xiapu. From the viewing platform, you can see the best sunset view of Dongbi Village. The sky gradually changes from orange-yellow to crimson to pinkish-purple, and the waterways on the mudflats reflect the sunlight like the lines on the earth's palm. The shutter kept clicking, but I knew that true beauty cannot be captured by a camera. As evening fell, accompanied by the landlady, we rode scooters to experience the vibrant life of this seaside town – how delightful! As night descended, in the tea room of the guesthouse lobby, the landlady and I chatted like old friends in our broken Hokkien. In our youth, we shared almost identical experiences, drinking tea instead of wine, downing it in one gulp – how refreshing! At that moment, all the anxieties, inner conflicts, and endless deadlines of the city seemed distant and faded away. I found peace here. During my three days and two nights alone at Sijian Canghai, I hardly visited any tourist attractions. Every meal was meticulously planned and perfectly arranged – so heartwarming! But this is the Xiapu I wanted. It's not about checking off tourist spots or collecting every mudflat like a stamp; it's about finding a place with a sea view, retrieving yourself from the hustle and bustle of life, and quietly spending some time with yourself. If you're tired, why not come to Xiapu and stay at Sijian Canghai? Let the sea breeze turn a few pages of your book, let the sunset bathe you in its gentle light, and let this landscape of mountains and sea preserve a moment of slow-paced time for you. Xiapu · Sijian Canghai 📍Dongbi Village, Xiapu, Ningde 🚄From Xiapu High-Speed ​​Railway Station to Sijian Canghai, a 30-minute taxi ride (the guesthouse offers free pick-up and drop-off service). Here, live amidst the scenery and become a collector of light and shadow throughout the day.

No hot showers on the island (some guesthouses have solar water heaters), be cautious if this matters to you. 2. Sunscreen! Sunscreen! UV rays are very strong by the sea, bring hats, sunglasses, and sunscreen. 3. Best season: May to October, avoid typhoon days, higher chance to see blue tears. 4.
