If you like bustle, you can choose to come here on the day of Mazu's appearance and ascension, which is the 23rd day of the third lunar month and the 9th day of the ninth lunar month every year. Before and after these days, the Mazu Ancestral Temple will welcome guests from all over the world to worship, and it will be very lively.

In addition, Putian also has the Mulan River that runs through the city, the ancient architectural concentration area of ​​Guqiao Tower, Houhuang Village scenery, and forest park, which are also very local characteristics.

There is also the largest salt field in Fujian Province, Xiuyu District Salt Field. Although it has been filled with garbage in recent years, it is still the most beautiful sky scene on a sunny day.
