Landmarks
Sanfang Qixiang; White Pagoda; Mount Gu; Min River; Fujian; lush subtropical coastal Fujian flora; Maritime Silk Road
Viewpoint
Favor the classic viewpoint looking down an ancient flagstone lane of Sanfang Qixiang framed by giant banyan roots toward the White Pagoda, or looking across the Min River toward Mount Gu, showing banyan branches and hanging aerial roots in the foreground, the whitewashed curved saddle walls, pagoda spire, and river waters in the middle-ground, and the misty green peaks of Mount Gu rising in the background.
Palette
Green should be the predominant color, especially in the colossal canopies and hanging aerial roots of ancient banyans, Mount Gu pine forests, and bamboo groves.
