A gate for defense, a tower for telling time. Wenzhou's Qiaolou (also known as the Drum Tower) is our stop on the Wuyue heritage relay. Its origins date to 907–911, when Qian Yuanguan, son of Wuyue's founding king Qian Liu, oversaw the construction of Wenzhou's inner city. Of its four gate towers, only this southern one remains today. It recalls Wenzhou's role as a key coastal stronghold in southern Wuyue — and the changing city that grew around it. Shaoxing, you're next! Which landmark will you share? @ShaoxingCity #WuyueHeritageRelay #Wenzhou #WuyueKingdom #ChineseHeritage

From coastal views to mountain peaks, #Wenzhou has a way of surprising you at every turn. 🌊⛰️ And Yandang Mountain is just one more reason to put this city on your travel list! ✨
Nestled in Wenzhou, Zhejiang province, Yandang Mountain is renowned for its dramatic peaks, striking rock formations and breathtaking natural scenery. Its three celebrated wonders are the Lingfeng Nightscape, the Lingyan Flying Crossing, and the Dalongqiu Waterfall. Located within Lingfeng scenic area, Hezhang Peak is one of the mountain's most distinctive natural landmarks. Formed by two adjacent peaks — Lingfeng and Yitian peaks — its silhouette resembles two palms pressed together, rising skyward amid a cluster of surrounding mountains. This remarkable formation showcases the extraordinary artistry of nature. As night falls, Hezhang Peak takes on an entirely different character. Shrouded in the soft darkness of the night, its rugged outlines blend with the surrounding mountain shadows, creating a scene of quiet mystery and serenity. As the viewing angle changes, the peaks reveal ever-changing shapes and silhouettes, making the Lingfeng Nightscape an enchanting blend of natural grandeur and beauty. chinabound.cn Travel with ease in China, and with meaning. #YandangMountain #Wenzhou #Zhejiang #ChinaBound #ASnapshotOfChina

The Wuyue cultural tradition originated in the Taihu Lake and Qiantang River basins in China, drawing on the past to enrich the present. From the prehistoric Jiangnan culture, the tumultuous events of the Spring and Autumn Period (770-476 BC), and the calligraphic grace of the Orchid Pavilion, extending to the Zhejiang School of Practical Statecraft, and the modern pioneers from Zhejiang who wielded their pens as weapons to awaken the nation – this heritage endures. In the new era, Zhejiang Province safeguards its civilizational roots, revitalizes its cultural heritage, and leverages major platforms and grand events to enable its millennia-old Wuyue culture to shine with contemporary brilliance.

From old photographs to today's views, Jiangxin Island has witnessed generations of #Wenzhou. 📸 Take a look back in time and see how much has changed — and what has stayed the same.
Jiangxin Island江心屿, Wenzhou, 1925, by W. Alfred. SCHHLIHTER, my personal collection. Jiangxin Island is one of China’s Four Famous Islets, lies in the middle of the Ou River in Wenzhou, Zhejiang Province, just a short ferry ride from the city center. The island began as two separate islets. In 1137, a monk led the filling of the channel between them, joining the two into one landmass. For centuries it has been praised as the “Penglai of the Ou River”—a reference to the mythical fairyland—and honored as the “Island of Poetry”. Today, Jiangxin Island is a National AAAA tourist attraction and a cultural anchor of Wenzhou’s tourism. Visitors come for its twin Tang and Song pagodas, ancient temples, and literary heritage, making it one of the city’s most iconic destinations

If you're into quiet mountains, clear streams, and waterfalls, #Wenzhou's Pingyang is your kind of autumn escape.
Autumn feels a little different in the mountains of Pingyang county in Wenzhou, Zhejiang province.🍂💦 As the summer heat fades, clear streams wind through green valleys, and waterfalls tumble over rocky cliffs. The mountains settle into a quieter rhythm as early autumn arrives.
