Why it belongs to the World Heritage story

The site links urban growth and river transport, even though it is less visually complete than surviving bridges.

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

Understand it within an infrastructure route, not as a spectacle.

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.
