A beautiful and relaxing day in Quanzhou, Fujian, at the beginning of April. Good life with Becky!
Like every year around Tomb Sweeping Festival (Qingming Jie) the weather around Fuzhou was rainy and pretty unpredictable. We got up at least 3 times at 6am to go to Quanzhou but as it was raining, we ended up going back to sleep every time! But finally one morning the sky was clear and blue, so we took the fast train south and enjoyed a wonderful day in Quanzhou! I really enjoyed this city and wouldn't mind going back in the future for more hiking. Quanzhou is like a little Fuzhou. The fact that it is much smaller than Fuzhou makes it very convenient to get around. People seem very laid-back and we didn't witness any traffic jam... It's also possible to get to the surrounded mountains within 15 minutes from downtown: really nice!
I hope you enjoy the pictures of the main temple in Quanzhou (Kai yuan Si) and the mountains above Quanzhou (Qing Yuan Shan).

Moving to Quanzhou
I am going to move to Quanzhou in March and your pictures and comments about the mountains are showing me that I did the right choice there :) Hope you are doing well in Beijing, without too much smog...
