First, let's talk about the scenery in Fuzhou. Fuzhou is a city surrounded by mountains, with mountains on three sides and the sea on the other. This geographical location has created its unique beauty of mountains and rivers. The first place I went to was Drum Mountain. The mountain is not high, but the scenery is amazing. Walking slowly up the mountain road, there are ancient trees along the way, the air is fresh, and occasionally you can hear the birds singing. When I reached the top of the mountain, the entire city of Fuzhou was in sight, the Minjiang River in the distance was winding, and the high-rise buildings nearby were lined up. This scene of ancient and modern blending made me fascinated. Speaking of the blend of ancient and modern, I have to mention the Three Lanes and Seven Alleys in Fuzhou. This place is simply a living history book of Fuzhou. The narrow stone roads, the simple blue brick houses, and the exquisite wood carvings and stone carvings all tell the long history of this city. But what surprised me was that there are many fashionable cafes and specialty shops in these ancient buildings. Sitting in a century-old house and drinking hand-brewed coffee, this experience is really special.

Under the glow of the setting sun, Drum Mountain stands tall and silent in the corner of the city, like a wise old sage. As night falls, the sunset over Drum Mountain is a sight to behold, a scene of intoxicating beauty. The sun slowly sinks towards the horizon, its golden disk gradually disappearing between the rolling hills. The afterglow of the setting sun illuminates the mountains, making it seem as if the entire range is wrapped in a golden ribbon. The river at the foot of the mountain is also dyed gold, shimmering as if telling an ancient tale. The sunset over Drum Mountain is not just the setting of the sun, but a heartfelt farewell between nature and the sky. Between the blue sky and the pale pink clouds, you can clearly feel the strong sense of parting. The horizon at dusk seems to have a thousand words to say to the sun, so it turns into a sky full of red clouds and gradually fading mist. People often say that every city has its own unique rhythm and breath, and the sunset over Drum Mountain is one of the unique rhythms of this city. At this time, the hustle and bustle of the city seems to become quiet, and people stop to watch this rare beauty. The melodious bird song, the swaying trees in the wind, and the sound of footsteps on the mountain road all add vitality and dynamism to this picture. At this moment, in this quiet and magnificent picture, you can feel as if time has frozen. The sunset over Drum Mountain is not just a natural phenomenon, but a way of life and philosophy. It tells us: life is short, but every sunrise and sunset is worth cherishing and experiencing. Standing on Drum Mountain, you will feel a deep sense of tranquility and inner peace. When the last afterglow disappears on the other side of the mountain, the night of Drum Mountain comes. But that moment of beauty has been deeply imprinted in everyone's heart. It is a unique touch and beauty, and a deep understanding and feeling of life. This is the sunset of Drum Mountain, an ordinary but shocking beauty. Every appreciation will give people more insights and experiences in life. So, take the time to climb Drum Mountain and quietly feel the beauty and tranquility of the sunset!

My friend ordered the wood pear fragrance, which has a slightly heavier milk taste, I took a sip and liked it too!!! It feels like it has surpassed Bawang Tea Ji in my heart haha. 📍 Gushan We started queuing for the cable car up the mountain at 6:30 PM, and by the time we were almost there, the sun had already set 😢 but we still managed to capture the sunset glow on the cable car up the mountain, it was beautiful!! See P3. The cable car ride takes about twenty minutes one way, the mountain breeze is very healing~ The queue for the cable car down the mountain was super long, we queued for more than an hour. If you want to catch the sunset cable car down the mountain, you need to come 2-3 hours in advance. 🍲 Zhu Fugui We queued online at the Zhongfang store at 6 PM, but by the time we got on the return subway at 9:30 PM, we had missed more than ten tables! Re-queued 😅 We officially started eating at 11 PM, didn't order too much for two people, spent about 60 yuan per person and didn't finish (the tribute vegetables and fish skin were delicious 🤤). Day 2 🥣 Houjie Lao Hua We slept until noon before going out to find food hhh Took a taxi directly to Houjie Lao Hua (Yijin Fang store), the store is small and there were quite a few people. Although there was a fishy smell in the store? The Lao Hua was delicious, the noodles were very chewy, very suitable for the light seafood soup noodles for Jiangsu and Zhejiang babies, see P4. 🥤 Tang Mo Cha Xi Came to drink again, ordered bergamot, felt it was a bit ordinary, not very impressive. 🍋‍🟩 Licorice Guava Went back to the hotel to put on makeup and get ready for the evening concert, ordered their takeaway. Tasted better than sour fruits 😋 see P5. 🎤 Concert Went to see Jie Jie in the evening 🥹 P6 stunning veil lifting 👰. Day 3 🍧 Ice Rice Went out at 10 AM but the ice rice shops we wanted to go to were not open, so we randomly found one in Daming Food Street, called Authentic Changle Ice Rice, see P7. Felt that ice rice should suit my taste but this one was not good, the rice used tasted like overnight rice 😡. 🍡 Lin's Mochi Bought two online recommended mochi before leaving, see P8. A bit ordinary, the ice cream filling was too sweet, got tired of it after eating one. 🚄 Return trip 👋
