This lifetime, wear flowers in your hair, be beautiful forever.

Here is a one-day itinerary for visiting Quanzhou's flower-wearing culture: I. Morning - Xunpu Village: - Arrive at Xunpu Village, the representative place of Quanzhou's flower-wearing culture. As soon as you enter the village, you can feel the strong fishing village atmosphere. - Find a flower-wearing shop and choose your favorite traditional costume, such as a cheongsam or a ma-mian skirt. Then ask the shopkeeper to style your hair and put flowers in it. The shopkeepers are skilled, and in no time you will be surrounded by colorful flowers, with your head adorned with jasmine and mock orange flowers, very beautiful. This process takes about half an hour. - Wearing flower-wearing clothes, stroll through the alleys of Xunpu Village and admire the ancient oyster shell houses. Oyster shell houses are houses built with oyster shells, unique and very photogenic. You can stay here for about an hour and take photos. II. Noon - Enjoy local cuisine at a restaurant near Xunpu Village. We recommend trying Xunpu seafood, such as steamed grouper and boiled shrimp, which are fresh and delicious. There are also special snacks such as oyster pancake and fried vinegar meat, allowing you to experience the unique flavor of Quanzhou. Meal time is about one hour. III. Afternoon - Zhenwu Temple: - From Xunpu Village, head to Zhenwu Temple. Zhenwu Temple is a sacred place of Taoism in Quanzhou, built in the Song Dynasty and known as "Little Wudang". The architecture here is simple and elegant, full of historical charm. You can visit the ancient buildings and stone tablets in the temple to learn about the history and culture of Zhenwu Temple. Tour time is about one hour. - There are some teahouses near Zhenwu Temple. You can choose one and sit down to taste Quanzhou's special tea drinks, such as Tieguanyin and Dahongpao, relax your body and mind, and enjoy a moment of peace. Stay for about half an hour. IV. Evening - End the day's itinerary and return with beautiful memories. Notes: - When wearing flowers, you can communicate with the shopkeeper about your desired style and flower color combination. - Pay attention to sun protection. When the sun is strong during the day, you can bring a sunshade or hat. - Respect local customs and cultural traditions.
