[2025 Lianjiang Attraction] Travel Guide for Qida Village (Updated May)

Qida Village is my favorite place on this trip to Fujian. The fishing villages along this line are all very beautiful, with a peaceful and romantic feeling. ⛰️Usually, to take photos of Qida Village, you need to go to the "Qiguanding" on the top of the mountain, which is called "Rio de Janeiro". 🚙Self-driving: Navigate to "Qi Guan Ding", starting from Fuzhou, it takes about 1.5 hours to drive there; 🚅Other transportation: Take the high-speed rail to Lianjiang Station, share a car/charter a car; 👉🏼If you drive up the mountain, you need to walk for about 20-30 minutes to the best photo location after parking. You can also walk all the way up from Qida Village. The climbing time is about 1 hour, and it is free🆓 📸Photography angle: The Internet celebrity stone is located at the top of the mountain. Standing on the stone, open your arms and imitate Rio de Janeiro. The stone itself is relatively safe and not as dangerous as it looks in the photo. There is a wider area below to walk. Be careful when the wind is strong. 🔹There are actually many places to take photos around the Internet celebrity stone, basically from the same angle, suitable for people who are afraid of heights. 🌞Weather: It must be sunny to see the view. It is easy to get foggy on the top of the mountain. You can't see anything when the weather is bad! ⏰Time: There is strong backlight in the morning, and it is more suitable in the afternoon. Try not to go up before sunset. The sunlight will be blocked by the mountain and the village will be dark. It is best to go early; Clothing: Shoes must be non-slip, safety first. 🐟Food and accommodation: You can travel from Fuzhou to Qida Village on the same day. If you need accommodation, you can choose to go to the nearby Dinghai Bay. The food is mainly seafood, including fish noodles, fish balls, fried clam and other authentic seafood snacks.

Qida Village in Lianjiang is a small fishing village, but it looks spectacular from the top of the mountain. It feels like Rio de Janeiro. Drive all the way to "Qida Village Qiguanding" and continue along the road to "Baiyun Temple" after arriving. Continue driving up after Baiyun Temple. The road behind Baiyun Temple is unpaved and narrow, so be careful when passing other cars. After arriving, park along the road. Parking is free, but it is difficult to find a spot when there are many people. Then, go through the stone archway and walk the rest of the way. It takes 20–30 minutes to walk up and down the mountain road and stone steps, which is tiring. It is fine on the way there, but you will feel exhausted on the way back. The mountains in Fujian feel like a whole piece of rock. The scenery at the top of the mountain is beautiful. The view of Qida Village from a high angle is spectacular. Many people take photos at the check-in point, which looks like the Christ the Redeemer statue in Rio de Janeiro. Qida Village Qiguanding is a must-visit place in Fuzhou.

Go ahead! : : : : : : : : : : : : : : : ! ! ! Otherwise you will really get dehydrated. There are many spots for taking photos there. The place I stood at is a bit dangerous. There is no guardrail next to it. If you can't stand steadily, then... So friends who go there should pay attention to safety. Wear a pair of sneakers. No high heels. The most important thing is that it is free. There are many attractions nearby. You can go there for a walk. Anyway, it is a place worth visiting.

When traveling to Fuzhou, I strongly recommend you to visit Lianjiang Qiguanding, which is known as the Fujian version of Rio de Janeiro. Not only can you enjoy the beautiful sea view, but you can also check in for various popular photos. 📍Geographical location: Located in Qida Village, Ankai Township, Lianjiang County, Fuzhou City, Fujian Province. 🌟Basic Overview: 1️⃣Altitude: About 450 meters above sea level.

You can see a large stone pier at the foot of the mountain and there is a parking lot next to it.

In Fuzhou, I found this small "Rio de Janeiro" that makes my heart beat faster. Qida Village is a thousand-year-old fishing village with mountains, sea, islands, and fishing villages. It is known as the "Most Beautiful Fishing Village in Fuzhou". It was selected as one of the top ten charming photography bases in China. Tourists can often be seen wandering between the mountains and the sea with cameras. Must-visit Qiguan Peak. It is recommended to wake up early to watch the sunrise🌄. After climbing 1,800 steps, you will reach the top of the mountain and overlook Qida Village🏞️ The entire fishing village seascape is in full view, and the scenery is no less than that of foreign countries. Unique landscape perspective and unusual scenery Full of holiday feeling Location: Qida Village, Lianjiang, Fujian 📢Transportation (from Fuzhou): ①🚗Self-driving: The most convenient and comfortable way to travel.

Qida Village is a fishing village I have always wanted to visit. In the village you can see many houses built on cliffs. After walking up 1,800 steps, I finally reached the top of the mountain. The entire fishing village was in sight.

: : : : : : : : : : : : : : : Navigate to "Baiyun Temple", pay attention! It seems that the road is under construction now. After arriving, continue to drive up the mountain. If the road is not under construction, get off where you see Qiguanding, and then climb the stairs to arrive. The oysters in Qida Village are really cheap and delicious. In summer, you can see the squid boats going out to sea emit green lights, like the aurora (this is also the Aurora Village I have always introduced). Precautions: Attention should be paid to sun protection. Although there are shades on the way up the hill, the ultraviolet rays at the seaside are still very strong and it is easy to get sunburned. There are many rest spots on the way up the mountain, and water selling points where you can scan the code yourself, so you don’t have to carry water up the mountain. The weather at the seaside is changeable, so it is recommended to check the weather forecast in advance. Choose a sunny day to go to the top of the flag. Photos will look better on sunny days. Where to stay? We stayed at Ruolin Hotel in Dinghai Bay, which is next to the sea. We can lie in the room and look at the sea. The view from the super large floor-to-ceiling balcony is excellent. The room decoration is also very appealing in its simple and luxurious style, with complete supporting facilities and is very classy.

Fuzhou!! The most worthy mountain to climb! Right in Lianjiang, Fuzhou!! It's very photogenic, remember to go on a sunny day for the best views!! About 1800 steps, takes a little over an hour to climb 🚗: Depart from Fuqing by D-train to Lianjiang Station, take a taxi to Qida Village Qiguan Top, we chose to climb up ❣️Note that when descending the mountain, remember to arrange your pick-up driver in advance. It was dark when we descended, and it was hard to hail a cab, so make sure to start climbing early!!

Qi Da Village—After reaching the summit, I felt everything was worth it. It takes about 40-60 minutes to walk up the mountain and climb 1800 steps Navigate to 'Qi Guan Ding' where there is a parking lot and many small pavilions selling food and drinks. If you want to drive up the mountain, navigate to (Qi Da Qi Guan Ding) and park anywhere you like, but since it's all small slopes, it's recommended to place a stone under the wheel after parking! Next, you'll start climbing the slope on foot (about 20 minutes), the path is quite easy to walk, but some places have a steep gradient, so it's not recommended to bring the elderly and children. After reaching the summit, follow the crowd and there are several peak check-in spots. The most photogenic is the mountain peak to the right in front of you after descending a long staircase, the first thing you see is a large rock that's a bit difficult to climb up, you can use both hands and feet. Continue along the rock and the small path on the right is the Rio de Janeiro-style check-in spot.

This is Qiguanding, Lianjiang County, Fujian Province ~ a fishing village that combines mountains, sea, and islands. It is known as the Fujian version of Rio de Janeiro. For mountaineering, you can choose 1,800 stone steps or drive to the top of the mountain and hike for 20 minutes. The wind on the top of the mountain is very strong, so remember to protect yourself from the wind and sun. Qida Village in Lianjiang, also known as the Rio de Janeiro of Fuzhou, is a small fishing village with a history of thousands of years. It was once unknown, but when it was unveiled to the world, it amazed the world overnight. Climbing to the top of Qiguanding (the commanding height of Qida Village), you can truly experience the endless sea view, clear coastline and numerous islands. This is the charm of the land of mountains and seas. Qida Village at the foot of the mountain was originally surrounded by ancient city walls. Today, most of the walls have been destroyed, with only four ancient city gates remaining standing. These walls have a history of three hundred years. Strolling through the small village, with winding alleys, modern high-rise buildings on one side and ancient stone houses that have stood the test of time on the other, history and reality are intertwined in this small fishing village. Location: Qiguanding, Lianjiang, Fujian Transportation: Self-driving recommended Tickets: Free Parking: Free How to get there: Take the train to Lianjiang Station and then rent a car or charter a car Fly to Fuzhou Changle Airport and transfer to Lianjiang Drive directly with navigation It is recommended to drive yourself, the attractions are relatively small and the distance is about 20~30 minutes by car. About the check-in spots: Beijiao Village: There is a wooden plank road leading to the sea Fisherman Island: A man-made attraction Rainbow Dam Qida Village

📍Location: Fujian-Qida Village 🚗Recommended self-driving: First, how to get there: Qida Village is about more than an hour away from Fuzhou city center. You can rent a car directly from Changle Airport and drive there. Qida Village belongs to Lianjiang of Fuzhou, just set your navigation to Qiguan Top or Baiyun Temple. There will be a short unnamed road before and after entering the village, no need to doubt, just follow the navigation. Because Qida Village is by the sea, there will be a long coastal road 📸Qiguan Top route: 1⃣️: You can drive to the foot of the mountain and start from there, but it is said that you have to climb more than 1700 stone steps, which will be exhausting. The whole staircase is still very steep, and there are no handrails🥲 However, the scenery along the way is very good 2⃣️: Drive directly to the top of the mountain, which actually can't be considered the summit. At this point, it's not over yet, because the car can only stop at a large platform, and there is a section of road above the platform that is simply off-road, it's a real mountain road, an unmodified mountain road🤣 It takes about another 29 minutes of mountain road to get to Qiguan Top, and then there are more stone steps to climb down to reach the best spot - the popular photo check-in location. ‼️In general, both routes are exhausting, it depends on what you can tolerate 🧏🏻‍♀️Check-in spot: First, there's a small pavilion on the way up the mountain, which is also a great photo spot, don't miss it. Once you reach Qiguan Top, you need to find your own angle and position, because the top is undeveloped, and some photo spots on the rocks are very dangerous, not suitable for those who are afraid of heights...🥹 So don't compromise your safety for the sake of taking photos. The scenery is beautiful at the top, relax and enjoy the view. ⭐️Summary: Although the journey is rugged and tiring, it is really beautiful～ But I won't go a second time, it's really too tiring😂 Just wait until it's fully built😋 Having been there once and captured the most beautiful scenery is enough

My girlfriend and I discovered a secluded fishing village, and we stayed up all night to complete this nanny-level guide! My dears, collect them now! Gushi Village-Huangqi Beach-Qida Village-Qiguanding 🚄Lienchiang Station 🚗Lienchiang County (it is more convenient to drive by yourself) 📍Gushi Village It is a secluded fishing village with no restaurants but only an unmanned convenience store. The village's sea view area has been rebuilt. There are no lawns, but instead it is planted with ornamental crops. You can get a very close look at the windmills, and the whirring sound can be heard throughout the village. 🎫: Free 🅿️: There is a parking lot near the entrance of the village, which was under repair when we went there. We parked at a temporary spot in the village and the fee was 5 yuan per time. 📍 Huangqi Beach The beach is not very big, you can go there to catch crabs, dig clams, pick up shells, and you can also fish. There are black bass, grouper, and yellowfin snapper. I pulled up two with the first cast, a yellowfin snapper and a porpoise. 🎫: Free 🅿️: There is an undeveloped wasteland next to the beach. You can drive your car down and park there. No one will charge you. Just walk 5 meters to the beach. Hahaha 📍 Qida Village Because we just wanted to see the hustle and bustle of the fishing port, we stopped at the entrance of the village and did not go into the village. I really want to see the spectacular sight of fishing boats going out to sea together. 🅿️: There are temporary parking spaces on both sides of the road just after entering the village, and no one is charging. 📍 Flag crown The scenery is so beautiful! I suggest you go when the weather is fine so that you can take beautiful photos. Villagers said that it would take more than 50 minutes to climb from the foot of the mountain to the top if one was fast. In order to avoid climbing too much, we navigated directly to Qiguanding, and the last section of the drive was a bumpy and bad road. 🎫: Free 🅿️: Drive to the "Qidaqiguanding" city wall gate and park. No one will charge. 🚗: Qida Village - Qiguanding City Wall about 25 minutes 🚶: Walk to the top of Qiguanding Mountain for 25 minutes 🍳Food recommendations: 1⃣️Fish noodles, fish balls, fried oysters 2⃣️Various seafood! Abalone, mantis shrimp, oysters, razor clams 🏠Accommodation I chose Dinghai Bay Ruolin Hotel because it is only 20 minutes away from Qida Village and the hotel has large floor-to-ceiling windows! The unobstructed sea view outside the window 👁️ amazed me! There is a beach downstairs🏖️ and there are amusement facilities to play! Very comfortable ☀️

I drove from Wenzhou to Qiguanding at midnight 🚗 There was no need to climb the 1800 steps, I took a shortcut by car It took about 20 minutes to hike up the mountain ⛰️ at 5:30 am and easily reached the summit I saw the sunrise I wanted to see, the only downside was that the wind was really too strong It was not friendly to my hair This hidden gem in a small fishing village in Fujian 🌊 The Chinese version of Rio de Janeiro - Qida Village The moment you climb Qiguanding is a blend of mountains and sea, a breathtaking view 💕💕 . 📍Qida Village, Lianjiang County - known as the Chinese version of Rio de Janeiro ⛰The best viewing angle of Qida Village is right next to Baiyun Mountain's Qiguanding There are two options for going up the mountain, you can walk more than 1000 steps, or you can drive to the parking lot near Baiyun Temple and walk up from there~ We chose the latter, which is also the less strenuous route~ 🎫Ticket: Free🆓 . 🚗Navigate to Baiyun Temple, the road is a winding mountain road, don't doubt and keep driving past the yellow archway with the Baiyun Temple sign, continue driving inside is a gravel road (the other side of the fork in the road is Baiyun Temple which is still under construction), keep driving along the gravel road! Until you reach a platform where you can see windmills and park, you can choose to stop here, and if there are not many cars, you can drive a little further up. We drove to the end of the gravel road when we went, and there was a gate that only allowed walking, maybe it will be open in the future~ After getting out of the car, it takes about half an hour to walk to Qiguanding, but this gravel road is relatively flat without steps, it's very easy to stroll to the top! . 🚩Photo spots at Qiguanding 📷 1️⃣The highest Qiguanding has a red flag, not far from the pavilion, you can take photos of the bay and windmills at the top, the sunrise here did not disappoint me! 2️⃣The most beautiful spot is down the steps from Qiguanding to the end of the mountain where there are many large rocks, in an instant the beauty is breathtaking~~🎈You can overlook the entire panorama of Qida Village, and you get the feeling of Rio de Janeiro🌊 3️⃣Standing at the end of more than 1000 steps, you can take an overhead shot of people and the full view of the fishing village, which is a more everyday spot suitable for sisters who are afraid of heights~ 4️⃣Walking forward from the Qiguanding kiosk, there is a stone that says 'Peace is a blessing', going down you can take photos of Qida Village sandwiched between two mountains, the angle is also very unique~ 5️⃣There are many scenic spots on the way, the platform near the end of the gravel road can take photos of the windmills and sea view behind, it's like being transported into a Miyazaki anime in a second~ ⚠️Safety first when taking photos, some places have quite slippery stones. . 🍳Food recommendations: 1⃣️Fish noodles, fish balls, oyster pancakes 2⃣️Various seafood! Abalone, mantis shrimp, oysters, razor clams Accommodation in Qida Village Dinghai Bay Ruolin Hotel There are few hotels near Qida Village, we chose a nearby star-rated sea view hotel (it has floor-to-ceiling windows + sea view room, wake up in the morning and open the curtains to see the sunrise. Just a few dozen meters downstairs is the beach, very quiet and comfortable. The hotel has a seafood restaurant, the prices are very reasonable, you can go with confidence!
