九日山祈风石刻
Why it belongs to the World Heritage story
The inscriptions reveal that navigation, seasonal winds, risk and ritual were part of the public life of the port.
Quanzhou's inscription is a serial property. The meaning of this site becomes clearer when it is connected to production, transport, administration, urban life or belief elsewhere in the city and region.
Planning a visit
Best on a second-day route with transport arranged in advance.
Confirm current opening access, transport and any ticket or reservation requirement shortly before travel. Chinese place names are worth saving for maps and taxi journeys.
