Fujian (Chinese: 福建; pinyin: Fújiàn; pronounced [fǔtɕjɛ̂n] ( listen)), formerly romanised as Foken, Fouken, Fukien, and Hokkien, is a province on the southeast coast of mainland China. Fujian is bordered by three provinces: Zhejiang to the north, Jiangxi to the west and Guangdong to the south, along with Taiwan 150 km to the east, across the Taiwan strait. The name Fujian came from the combination of Fuzhou and Jianzhou (a former name for Jian'ou) two cities in Fujian, during the Tang dynasty. While its population is chiefly of Han origin, it is one of the most culturally and linguistically diverse provinces in China.

I went to Kuliang again with my family to escape from the downtown summer heat not long ago. We were guided by the clear signboards all the way along towards Kuliang Scenic Zone after we had driven onto Sanhuan. We parked our car on the parking lot of Cryptomeria Cypress King Park and walked towards Kuliang Old Street which started at Yingyuehu Park and ended at Li Shijia's Villa in a total length of 800m and width of 2.5m-2.6m. It passed many historic buildings, including Kuliang Old Post Office, Wanguo Charity Association, Yangren Swimming Pool and Li Shijia's Villa. The old street had many noteworthy attractions: [Kuliang Old Post Office] Opened in 1902, Kuliang Old Post Office is one of the five famous "summer post offices" of China. It was open after the Dragon-boat Festival and closed after August 15 on the lunar calendar each year. Today, it is not just a tourist attraction because its role as a "post office" is resumed to affix a Kuliang seal for tourists and sell post cards to them. [Wanguo Charity Association] Wanguo Charity Association used to be a rendezvous for foreigners and the only old building with a basement in Kuliang. You can also visit Kuliang Cultural Musuem here.

These buldings are rare, ancient but yet full of life. It's definitely worth the ride from Xiamen (3 hours drive). A true journey in the past...

Stroll down the street for a lazy Sunday stroll. The road is so clean and shops nearly laid out. Fulfilled my craving for Hokkien dishes like oyster omelette, fried Mee Sua and other local delicacies. There are many indoor eateries with a wide variety of fresh seafood. After trying the first outlet there were more along the way. Great ambiance.

This is something you don't frequently find in China - a place where you can take a walk on a well maintained, scenic mountain trail without competing with thousands of other visitors! The trail leads through many small tea plantations, along peaceful streams and past some very impressive mountain scenery. Lots of places for photos, and a few places where you almost feel alone. Very peaceful.
