Tenfu Tea Museum

4.7/5
143 reviews
Tianfu Tea Museum is about 15 kilometers away from Zhangpu County. It is a museum with tea culture as its theme. The pavilions and landscapes here are full of ancient charm, and even have the temperament of a holiday villa. It is a good choice to learn about tea culture or simply relax. There are five major theme pavilions in the museum, including the main exhibition hall, tea ceremony classroom, Japanese tea ceremony hall, calligraphy and painting hall, and Korean tea ceremony hall. The main exhibition hall mainly displays the history of tea culture, the tea culture of the world's major tea-producing countries, and the development history of Tianfu Group. You can also see the Tang Dynasty court tea sets (replicas) unearthed from the underground palace of Famen Temple in Xi'an. It is the main tourist area. In the Japanese Tea Ceremony Hall (Fuhui Temple), there are Jingting, Jianting, and Jingting, which represent three different era styles of Japanese tea rooms, while the Korean Tea Ceremony Hall is built with original fir wood in the style of traditional Korean tea rooms, each with its own characteristics. There are generally regular Guide services in each exhibition hall, so that visitors can understand the context of tea culture more clearly. For specific Guide time, please consult the staff. In addition, the daily Chinese, Japanese and Korean tea art performances are also a must-see. Not only can you appreciate the tea art, you can also taste the tea, or buy some tea to Complimentary to relatives and friends. The performance and Guide fees are included in the ticket price.Zhangpu · 12km from downtown
Zhaojia Castle

Zhaojia Castle

3.1
4.7/5
77 reviews
This group of buildings was built in the Song Dynasty, and the castle is divided into inner and outer cities. In the inner city, a three-story, four-in-one "Wanbi Building" is built, which means "complete jade returns to Zhao". The portraits of 18 emperors of the Song Dynasty are hung in the building. There is a Wengcheng at the north gate, and the Wu Temple and the Father and Son Doctor's Square are built in the Wengcheng, which are the main entrance. Zhaojiabao is adjacent to Danzao Mountain in the south and facing Tianma Mountain in the north. The Wanbi Building is a three- or four-way square building with a height of 20 meters and 16 rooms on each floor. The outer ring of the building is built with a stone-based earthen fort. The three-height earthen fort is 6 meters high and 2 meters wide, with a crenel on it. There are four city gates in the east, west, north and south. The east gate is inscribed with "Oriental Great Barrier", the west gate is inscribed with "Shuo Gao Jusheng", and the south gate is inscribed with "Danding Zhongxiang", but the north gate has no inscription. A tunnel is built in the patio to lead to the east gate. The Wanbi Building and its sanitation earthen fort are commonly known as the "Inner City". The other part is Zhao Yijian's five entrance houses, each with 30 rooms, a total of 150 rooms. It is still well preserved. The outer city wall is a three-layered clay wall, 6 meters high, 2 meters thick, and 1200 meters in circumference. The main buildings in the outer city are five mansions that are juxtaposed with five entrances. There are also precious cultural relics such as the Bianpai Bridge, the Yu Stele, the "Mochi" stone inscription of the Song Dynasty calligrapher Mi Fu's handwriting, and the Ju Buddha Pagoda. When the Southern Song Dynasty fell, the Song clan Qi Ruohe and Huang Shichen fled to Zhangpu in Guangdong, where they took refuge and lived in seclusion. During the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, his tenth grandson Zhao Fan built a fort here, and later Zhao Fan's son Zhao Yi expanded it. The castle was built in the style of Bianjing, the capital of the Northern Song Dynasty.Zhangpu · 21.9km from downtown

Kulangsu

4.5/5
54.6k reviews
Kulangsu is located in the southwest corner of Xiamen, Fujian Province, facing Xiamen Island across the Lujiang Strait. The island covers an area of about 1.88 km² and is a "garden on the sea, island of pianos, and exhibition of architecture from around the world" that blends nature with culture. In 2017, it was inscribed on the World Cultural Heritage List as "Kulangsu, a Historic International Settlement." The island is a bedrock island with a winding coastline and many natural harbors and reefs; its terrain is mainly hilly, with the highest peak, Sunlight Rock, at 92.7 m above sea level. It has a subtropical maritime monsoon climate, warm and humid, with spring-like weather all year round, making it suitable for visiting throughout the year. Motor vehicles are prohibited on the island, so there is no noise of traffic—only birdsong, flowers, waves, and piano music. Hundreds of historic buildings from the late 19th century to the mid-20th century still stand, spanning Gothic, Victorian, Baroque, Nanyang arcade, and traditional Minnan courtyard styles, and are acclaimed as a "World Architecture Expo" and a living specimen of a modern East Asian international community. Representative buildings include the Bagua Mansion (Organ Museum), Shuzhuang Garden, Haoyue Garden, the former site of the HSBC Mansion, Trinity Church, and the former residence of Lin Yutang. The island has a profound musical cultural heritage. Since the late Qing Dynasty, Western music was introduced through missionary schools. The density of pianos on the island has long ranked among the highest in the country, and musical masters such as Yin Chengzong and Xu Feiping were born here, earning it the reputation of "Island of Pianos" and "Island of Music." The Piano Museum houses century-old antique pianos, and the Organ Museum holds a giant pipe organ. Piano music is often heard among the streets and alleys, and the tradition of family concerts continues to this day. The core attractions on the island each have their own distinctive features. Sunlight Rock is the highest point on the island; from the summit, visitors can enjoy a 360° panoramic view of the entire island, Xiamen main island, and the Taiwan Strait, and there is a saying that "you haven't truly visited Xiamen until you've climbed Sunlight Rock." Shuzhuang Garden was the private residence of the wealthy Taiwanese merchant Lin Erjia, designed to "hide the sea within the garden and embrace the mountains as scenery," blending Jiangnan garden aesthetics with mountain and sea views; the garden's Piano Museum houses nearly a hundred antique pianos. Haoyue Garden features a 15.7 m tall granite statue of Zheng Chenggong facing the sea, built to commemorate the national hero who recovered Taiwan. Bagua Tower is a landmark building on the island, blending Chinese and Western architectural aesthetics, and houses hundreds of antique organs. Yuyuan Garden, Gulang Stone, Yanwei Mountain Ecological Park, and other cultural and natural attractions are scattered across the island, linking together a century of charm and the poetry of mountains and sea. Tour tips Island access: You need to take a ferry from the ferry terminal on Xiamen Island to get there. There is no general admission ticket; core attractions require separate tickets or a combo ticket. Mode of travel: Walking tours across the island; paid sightseeing electric carts are available; motor vehicles are prohibited. Recommended season: suitable all year round; spring and fall (April-May, October-November) offer comfortable weather and blooming bougainvillea, making the scenery especially beautiful.Xiamen · 58.6km from Zhangpu

Before coming, I saw many posts online warning against visiting this place, saying it was desolate and not good. But I actually really liked it. I guess beauty is in the eye of the beholder. My husband also said this was his favorite spot on this trip to Zhangzhou. If you like places with fewer people and the whole beach to yourself, don't miss it!

The ocean view is beautiful, with clear water and fine sand. There are places to watch the sunrise and sunset, as well as places to catch some seafood. Windmills, waves, beaches, and reefs are all vast, and the footbath is free. The food is limited, with limited options and slow service. Besides the ocean, other attractions are worthwhile, such as the Amphibian Zoo, which is expensive and average. Infrastructure needs improvement, as it's located in a village, so sanitation and hygiene are a bit lacking. Parking is also quite expensive.

It was a great experience. Fortunately, I made an appointment online in advance, otherwise there would be a lot of people on weekends. It was worth my long wait. It was really good. I unlocked a new store and chose this one based on the reviews. I was very satisfied with the food and drinks. It was very good. The experience was very good and the price was fair. I will come again next time.^◡^. It is worth recommending. I mainly praise the staff. They are super nice and have a really good attitude. There is no impatience at all! The location is easy to find. You can see a big logo at a glance. The environment is very good and the atmosphere is also 🈶️

It feels pretty good. The sea water is clean, the beach is very flat, and you can go to the beach. You can watch the sunrise the next day. It's good when the weather is clear. I like the beach,,,,,

Zhangpu Volcanic Island Geology Museum: Immersively Unlocking the "Secrets of Earth's Volcanoes" As a pre-booking experience for a volcanic island trip, this museum completely overturned my stereotype of traditional geological museums. Rather than a boring display of specimens, I experienced an immersive experience where I could touch and "witness" a volcanic eruption with my own eyes. Afterward, I visited the volcanic rocks on the beach, and my understanding instantly deepened to a whole new level! Highlights: A truly captivating experience 1. "Experience" a volcanic eruption: The volcanic eruption experience hall is the absolute centerpiece! Sound, light, and smoke effects combine to simulate the entire volcanic process, from smoke and magma to eruption. The ground even vibrates slightly, making it feel like you're actually standing near the crater. The visual and sensory impact was so intense that even my friends couldn't help but exclaim in delight. 2. Intuitive and Stunning Specimens: The museum boasts a wealth of volcanic rock treasures, from porous basalt to rare volcanic bombs and lava balls, all available for close-up observation. Some specimens are labeled with their formation dates and geological stories. For example, when you see 3-million-year-old volcanic rocks, you'll instantly feel the wonder of "the land beneath your feet was once a sea of ​​fire." 3. Down-to-earth Content: The exhibition area avoids excessive technical jargon. Instead, it uses the theme of "Zhangzhou—A Pearl of the Pacific Rim" to connect local volcanic geology with the global volcanic belt. With illustrations and models, even geology novices can easily understand the exhibits and learn a wealth of knowledge beyond the textbook. Minor Regrets in Small Details - There aren't many interactive installations. Aside from the volcanic eruption experience, the other exhibits are primarily visual and educational. Adding more interactive activities like "simulated volcanic rock excavation" and "volcano quizzes" would be more appealing to children and young adults. - Some exhibit signage is a bit small and difficult to read in low light. We recommend improving the lighting and signage. Overall, this is a must-do for any trip to the volcanic islands—first learn about volcanoes in the museum, then visit the beach to see the actual volcanic ruins. The thrill of "transcending theory into reality" is doubled. If you're traveling with children or are interested in geology, spending an hour or two exploring the area is definitely worth it!

Located at the foot of the Shuogao Mountain in Huxi, Shexiang, Zhangpu County, Fujian Province, with a radius of 0.5 kilometers, 38 kilometers from the city center and 90 kilometers from Zhangzhou city, it is an ancient castle where Zhao Ruohe, the Prince of Minchong (the 10th-generation grandson of Zhao Kuangmei, the younger brother of Emperor Taizu of Song, Zhao Kuangyin), a royal family member of the late Southern Song Dynasty, took refuge and lived in seclusion in exile in the late Southern Song Dynasty. It is commonly known as Zhaojiabao.

The most distinctive feature of Liuao Peninsula is the abstract gallery: the scattered granite eggs are lifelike, and the magical power of nature has carved the rocks into various shapes and lifelike shapes. Walking into the "abstract gallery", you will see a series of magical and beautiful rock sculptures standing on the seashore, which makes people marvel at the uncanny workmanship of nature.

The main attractions included in the package ticket are Shuzhuang, Sunlight Rock, and the Palace Museum. There's also an organ performance in the Bagua Building. Otherwise, you can skip the rest. The price is similar to snowboarding, but one yard saves some time.
