Quzhou

A cultural old city in southwest Zhejiang, where the Confucius Family Southern Temple, Jianglang Mountain's Danxia landforms and Nianbadu Ancient Town are worth a visit.

Quzhou lies in western Zhejiang, bordering Fujian, Jiangxi and Anhui, and has long been known as the "thoroughfare of four provinces". In the urban area are the Confucius Family Southern Temple and the Shuiting Gate historic district, reflecting the history of Confucianism's spread south. Jianglang Mountain in Jiangshan is known for its three giant standing rocks and is inscribed as part of "China Danxia" on the World Natural Heritage list, while nearby Nianbadu Ancient Town preserves a mix of dialects and old architecture. Spring and autumn are good seasons for hiking and exploring historic sites. The gateways are Quzhou high-speed rail station and Quzhou Airport.
