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.

Kulangsu Wonder Food Museum offers visitors a kitsch, kooky and in-depth look at the city’s unique food culture with larger-than-life displays of Xiamen dishes.

Its roots go back to the Tang Dynasty, when it was first built in 686. Amazingly beautiful mulberry tree which is also believed to be 1,300 years old. This is a large temple complex with 120 buildings over a 89,000 square meter area. Lots of beautiful sculptures.

I visited with a group and came away with a very good overview of the history of Xiamen and some wider insides into China. If you like to just browse on your own, this might be a little dull, but our guide was very good at pointing out the best bits and moving along before anyone got bored. She made it an excellent visit!
