2025 Quzhou Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in March)

I've found another stunning waterfall hidden in the mountains within Quzhou territory. Though the mountains are silent, they are not without sound. Today, I'm sharing a scene of wondrous harmony between trees and waterfall, located to the southwest of Quzhou City, featuring cascading streams, layered peaks, and lush greenery! Changshan Bridge Pavilion's Dakeng Waterfall is one of the countless waterfalls in Quzhou, but this one showcases the beauty of nature's pairing to perfection. The drop is not immense, yet the deadwood and green leaves of the primeval forest complement the light blue water, creating an immediate sense of a dark willow and bright flowers, making both landscape and portrait photography exceptionally stunning!

They all said that they did not know the water pavilion door, and they were the people of Zhangzhou. Shuiting Street is an important part of the core area of the national Confucian cultural industrial park in Zhangzhou. It is also the famous Honghong Street in Zhangzhou. The ancient buildings are merged with the new vision. There will also be performances of the city wall light show, remember to come to the card and feel the customs of Zhangzhou.

The ancient city of Luzhou: There is still a road in Qingshiban. The ancient humanities are not just legends, but rogues in every step... as the city of Chuzhou, the original construction of its walls, When Tang Wude built the county governor for four years, his site was centered on Guifeng, Qiling, which is today's Fushan. Before this, as the seat of the county-level government, there should be a city wall, but first, the size of the city wall will not be very large. Second, the city wall is in the city after the Tang Dynastys establishing the county governor Expanded and abandoned. The current city wall is basically in line with the wall built in the Tang Dynasty. Since the Tang Dynasty, the city wall has been built, expanded, and preserved to this day. It is a long history of the Tang Dynasty.

Stepping into Quzhou's Shuiting Gate is like opening an ancient history book. The city walls, weathered by time, bear the marks of bygone stories in every crack. On both sides of the old street, Hui-style architecture stands in elegant disarray, with carved eaves and intricate details. The street-side shops offer a dazzling array of goods, from traditional pastry shops emitting rich aromas to cultural and creative stores filled with exquisite handicrafts. I bought a Quzhou baked pancake, its crispy crust encasing a savory meat filling. One bite, and I was enveloped in the warmth of everyday life. Walking to the banks of the Qujiang River, a gentle breeze brushed my face as the river flowed serenely. The scenery on the opposite bank complements Shuiting Gate, creating a tranquil tableau. As night falls and the lights come on, the ancient buildings are outlined in light, captivating in their beauty. Shuiting Gate, with its unique charm, allowed me to experience the historical charm and vibrant life of Quzhou. It was a trip well worth taking.

🍲Dish recommendations: I. Mazhandi: 1. Lao Pei Duck Head: Duck head shops in Quzhou are generally good. The duck heads eaten on-site are more delicious because they are served with soup. The braised duck heads are very flavorful, and the bones and meat are so tender that they fall off the bone. 2. Shuijingao Girl: Refreshing crystal cake with mint and freshly baked flatbread is the best combination for Quzhou people. It is recommended not to add milk, as the original flavor is more refreshing. 3. Dong Baba Flatbread: Quzhou people like to eat flatbread with fried dough sticks or stinky tofu. The crispy filling is sandwiched between freshly baked flatbreads. II. Songyuan Food Market: The snacks here are all on one street, which is very convenient. There are Duze sausage, flatbread in a bag, flatbread, and egg pancakes, etc. However, the downside is that you need to queue for a long time during holidays. Attractions: 1. Quzhou Museum: Next to the Confucius Temple, in addition to the huge dinosaur fossils, the displayed calligraphy and paintings and some cultural relics are also worth seeing. Free admission (entry stops at 4 pm, and the museum closes at 4:30 pm). 2. Luming Grassland: A huge grassland in Quzhou city, with various small animals. It is a great choice for camping, walking, or bringing children. 3. Shuiting Gate: Open all day, but with different scenery at different times. During the day, you can admire the ancient architecture and feel the charm of history; at night, you can watch the light show and performances, and experience the lively atmosphere.

In Quzhou! ! Found some delicious Jiangxi stir-fried food~|||🏠It’s right at Luming Yintai! As soon as I walked to the door, I felt a strong atmosphere. After entering, the environment of the store was also very comfortable. There were also handwritten recommendations on the wall by the boss, each of which was full of sincerity. While waiting for the dishes, a small pot of sweet osmanthus wine will be served, and there are nine different cups☕ to choose from! The boss spoiled us a little too much. The store also has its own fragrant and crispy hard-shell peanuts🥜 (I won’t say that I come here every time just for them! Haha) Recently, a few new dishes have been added and I have to check in. I recommend a few of my favorites! 1️⃣ Dried preserved vegetables chicken feet Super soft and sticky dried preserved vegetables chicken feet, the dried preserved vegetables are very fragrant, and the chicken feet are very sticky and tasty! A must order every time! 2️⃣ Taro beef 🥩 When I was a kid, I grew up in my grandmother’s home in Jiangxi. Whenever I had no appetite, my grandmother would make taro beef shreds. I tasted the familiar taste here! ! Be sure to have it with a bowl of hot rice, it's really delicious! ! 3️⃣ Stir-fried river clam meat I was shocked when this "big shell" was served. It's so fun haha! 🥹The top is the stir-fried spicy and sour beans with river clam meat. The river clam meat is chewy and paired with Jiangxi's usual spicy condiments. It is another super dish that goes well with rice! 4️⃣Shangrao Fried Rice Noodles Shangrao’s fried rice noodles don’t even need too many side dishes. Just add some minced meat and chili peppers, and you’ll be stunned by the aroma. It tastes spicy and very satisfying (it’s not delicious if it’s not spicy). This is a must-order! ! 🤣 Every time I miss the taste of my grandma's house, I will come to this restaurant to eat (I am a regular customer). Facing the river, there are also tables and chairs outdoors, so you can dine while watching the river view, which is very comfortable~

🎵“Waiting for you under a sky of celadon blue, smoke curling up from kitchen chimneys, thousands of miles across the river…” These poetic lyrics by Vincent Fang, depicting the hazy charm of a Jiangnan water town, always remind me of Quzhou, a small city equally imbued with poetry. In February of this year, I embarked on a leisurely three-day trip to Quzhou, drawn by the allure of ancient Jiangnan.

💞The romance of Quzhou is really unexpected! I was moved by the red house on Luming Mountain! 📍It is located in the Luming Mountain Cultural Institute Street. The whole body is red, made of customized purple sand red bricks and red tiles, full of oriental beauty and romantic elements, and you will be deeply attracted when you pass by. 🌟The red house is not only beautiful, but also the new site of the marriage registration office of the Civil Affairs Bureau of Kecheng District, Quzhou City. It is called the most romantic marriage registration office in Zhejiang Province by netizens. 💒The design details of the venue show joy and romance everywhere. The gate is separated by a flower wall, the door plate column is integrated with traditional red makeup elements such as wedding dress and red cover, and there are dragon and phoenix patterns, which are all lovely! 🎨The artistic atmosphere here is very strong, with sunken squares, domes, artistic spiral columns and other three-dimensional and changeable space structures, which can be photographed at will. ❤️The hot red heart in the middle of the venue is even more iconic, and the photos are very atmospheric. 🌆I have to mention its roof walkway, and the preserved design is wonderful! The two ridges are viewing platforms, and the top floor has a wide view. The beautiful scenery of the two centers and the large lawn is in full view. Watching the city sunset is simply too romantic~ 🌹The spiral staircase is also very romantic.

Unexpectedly encounter a homestay with a sense of history and story: Floral Luxury Yuyin Heji A homestay converted from a granary, with an elegant and stylish environment. As soon as you step in, you know this trip is worth it! The homestay is located in the Quzhou South District Sanqu Road National Fitness Center Park, hidden in the city. It was originally a grain market courtyard built in 1969, combining local culture, innovating in inheritance, coexisting harmoniously with the surrounding creative park, and continuing the sense of age of historical buildings. The room design is very stylish, with a reasonable layout and furniture placement, complete facilities, sufficient hot water, equipped with a mousse mattress and a small refrigerator, comfortable bedding, high floor height, and very comfortable to live in. The small courtyard in the homestay has a tea table, calligraphy room, Go, swimming pool, drinking tea and chatting is really comfortable, very photogenic, pet-friendly. The noodles made by the aunt are super delicious, the service is enthusiastic and thoughtful, and there is also bread and coffee supply. There is a little cat "Cheese", an old employee, who will communicate with guests, guide the way, and is very friendly. The location is super convenient, you can explore the ancient streets and alleys of Quzhou on foot. In the early morning, go to Shuitingmen to eat a bowl of authentic Quzhou mixed noodles, spicy just right, awakening the vitality of the day. In the afternoon, stroll on the ancient city wall, overlooking the entire city, the sense of history is overwhelming.

| Ancient street night view + special performance. The night view of Shuitingmen is very beautiful, and it is the street that best reflects the ancient city style of Quzhou! There are all kinds of lanterns, and the best time to visit is at night when the lights are on! There are also various performances in the scenic area, especially those that incorporate some popular online skits and dances, which are quite attractive. You can't help but stop and watch! As a third- or fourth-tier city, Quzhou doesn't have as many tourists, and it is a place of leisure and freedom. Must-see attractions: Three Streets and Seven Alleys: Stroll through the quaint streets, admire the traditional architectural style, and taste the local snacks. Tianwang Tower: One of the landmark buildings of Shuitingmen, with a huge electronic screen with the word "Quzhou" under the tower, is a great place to take photos. I have to give Quzhou a big thumbs up for its cultural and tourism this year. During the Chinese New Year, the scenic spots are free of charge, and the performances at Shuitingmen are also very rich. The atmosphere of the New Year is very strong, and it is really worth coming to Quzhou this time!
