A small county town in Longyan, Fujian, conceals an immense cherry garden: Taipin Cherry Blossom Tea Garden. It has appeared on Xinwen Lianbo, and even Chinese National Geography came here to photograph a cover, yet it remains remarkably low-key. Green tea fields and red cherry blossoms are Yongfu's signature. Across more than 50,000 mu of tea gardens, over 100,000 cherry trees line the roads. Admire the blossoms while tasting Taiwanese high-mountain tea.

Yunshuiyao ancient town

Yunshuiyao Ancient Town lies in Nanjing County, Zhangzhou, Fujian. A thousand-year-old path paved entirely with cobblestones passes through town, quietly steeped in mystery and ancient grandeur. Entering the town, winding paths, century-old banyans, spectacular tulou, unpretentious households, and pastoral scenery create a feeling of tranquil detachment.
