INFJ|Half City Smoke and Fire

​ Slowly feel this city❤ Itinerary Overview Morning: Visit Guandi Temple, Tianhou Palace, Chengtian Zen Temple, and Kaiyuan Temple, spending about 5 hours. Spent 2.5 hours at Kaiyuan Temple, which has a deep historical background. I recommend hiring a guide (I wandered at my own pace, so of course I missed some knowledge sharing). Noon: (More accurately, afternoon) Had ginger duck near the scenic area, which was pretty okay. Finally got to try it~ Afternoon: Watched Quanzhou puppet show, it was amazing, couldn’t stop applauding 👏. Went to stroll around West Lake Park, watched others fly kites for a while, and enjoyed the sunset by the lake. It was really comfortable. 🌴My feelings It was my first time touching so many big banyan trees, and I was so lucky to take photos under the Bodhi tree. The thousand-year-old mulberry trees still bear mulberries, and there are banyan trees and various vegetation everywhere. Strolling in West Lake Park is so relaxing, I started to envy the people living here. Quanzhou is great, I will come again next time.
