Quanzhou's lively West Street
When in Quanzhou, taking a stroll along the West Street, one of the most popular spots of the city, is a must do for every visitor!
West Street is located in the downtown area of Quanzhou (Fujian Province), at the side of the UNESCO site of the Kanyuan Temple.
The street is renowned for its local snacks and charming historic buildings, characterized by the local architectural style, recognizable by the lively orange color of the bricks and tiles.
I visited West Street during the week of Chinese New Year 2023, and although really crowded, I still enjoyed the local flavor and tasty street food! 😋🍢

Tickly Fish Spa in Yangshuo West Pedestrian Street
We tried the fish spa in Yangshuo West Pedestrian Street. It's very cheap at ¥28 for 30 minutes. They also offer other services such as ear cleaning and a variety of massages. pThe owner is very friendly. The place was neat and clean. The fish nibbling on your feet is an interesting and fun experience. It's quite tickly! Recommend it! #yangshuo #yangshuotravel #weststreet #fishspa
