When Matthias Delvaux, a juror at the 12th Silk Road International Film Festival, describes Fuzhou, his words paint a scene straight out of a Studio Ghibli film 🎨. Think mist-cloaked mountains, rivers that shimmer like liquid jade, and evenings alive with the rhythm of community dances. "It’s where nature writes poetry," he says, "and people turn everyday moments into art."
Delvaux, captivated by the city’s blend of serene landscapes and buzzing cultural energy, highlights Fuzhou’s riverside gatherings as his favorite spectacle. Picture this: locals singing folk tunes, dancing under strings of lanterns, and sharing laughter over steaming bowls of fish balls 🍲—a living tapestry of tradition and joy.
For travelers and culture buffs, Fuzhou isn’t just a destination—it’s an invitation to slow down and savor life’s simple pleasures. As Delvaux puts it: "Here, even the fog feels like it’s telling a story."
