Quanzhou is 2 hours by bus from Xiamen. Fare is 38 Yuan on a direct tourist coach.
On arrival at the long distance bus station I was hassled by touts. In front of the station there is a store selling freshly roasted chestnuts. Very good tasting. Luckily I was also able to taste the last of the sweet and luscious persimmons of the season.
The people of Quanzhou are smaller built and darker ... Detail
Hey, just a quick note for anyone thinking of hopping the border for a week or so...I recently came across budget airline Airasia which flies return from Xiamen to Bangkok for under 1000RMB...may be worth a try! Maybe the new Ryanair?

Usually called the Film City..but its fancy calling it little beijing coz the replica is so wonderfully crafted.
U can savour a simple meal inside while taking different snapshots of the place.
There is a yard for horsebackriding and u can took photos for only 20rmb.
