Imagine a place where misty mountains meet turquoise seas , ancient temples stand alongside buzzing tech hubs, and centuries-old tea rituals thrive next to AI startups. Welcome to Fujian Province – China’s southeastern treasure chest now under the global spotlight!
This week, media pros from around the world teamed up with CGTN’s Jiao Yang for an exclusive deep dive into Fujian’s cultural heartbeat and economic hustle. From the UNESCO-listed Gulangyu Island (dubbed the ‘Piano Island’ ) to the high-speed rail networks connecting futuristic cities, their journey is rewriting the ‘China story’ one TikTok-worthy clip at a time.
Hot Spots on Their Radar:
- The Mulan River irrigation system – basically ancient China’s version of water Instagram filters
- Fujian’s booming cross-border e-commerce zones (think Amazon meets the Maritime Silk Road)
- Puppet theaters preserving dramas older than Shakespeare
One journalist told us: ‘It’s like time travel with 5G signal – you’re documenting 1,000-year-old traditions while livestreaming to your followers.’
Why This Matters: As global interest in Asian innovation grows, Fujian shows how heritage and hyper-modernity can collab better than a K-pop group’s TikTok challenge. Stay tuned for their full report – your future China trip itinerary might just get a major upgrade!
