Hotels in Quanzhou — What to Expect
Once the world's greatest port, Quanzhou is a living museum of maritime history and cultural exchange. The city's soul is found along the West Street and Tumen Street, where ancient stone pagodas stand beside traditional Minnan red-brick houses. The real draw is its status as the "Museum of World Religions," evident at the serene Kaiyuan Temple with its iconic twin stone pagodas and the quiet, atmospheric Qingjing Mosque, one of China's oldest. Don't miss the Maritime Museum to understand its pivotal role on the ancient Maritime Silk Road.
