Parks und Seen in Fuzhou

Parks and Scenic Lakes

Fuzhou’s landscape is defined by its 'three hills, two pagodas, and one lake.' This collection features the historic West Lake, dating back to 282 AD, alongside the ancient scenic areas of Wushan, Yushan, and Pingshan. Modern additions include the award-winning Fudao forest walkway connecting Meifeng and Golden Bull Hill, the seasonal blooms at Huahai Park along the Min River, and the lotus ponds of Chating Park. These sites combine classical Chinese garden architecture with innovative urban ecological design.
