Mount Wuyi is the most outstanding area for biodiversity conservation in south-east China and a refuge for a large number of ancient, relict species, many of them endemic to China. The serene beauty of the dramatic gorges of the Nine Bend River, with its numerous temples and monasteries, many now in ruins, provided the setting for the development and spread of neo-Confucianism, which has been influential in the cultures of East Asia since the 11th century. In the 1st century B.C. a large administrative capital was built at nearby Chengcun by the Han dynasty rulers. Its massive walls enclose an archaeological site of great significance.
武夷山位于闽西北，地方语言为闽北方言，与福州，闽南均不同。非常美丽的地方。世界文化与自然双遗产。由福州乘火车约五小时，每天一班来回。当地旅游为主，名茶武夷山大红袍。旅游观光，导游带你到蛇店，珠宝店，茶店，恨不得将你的钱包交给他。交通有小飞机通福州厦门。不是太容易自由行的目的地。
When I visited there, I saw a sign - CCTV 走遍中国 is going to shoot there. After returning to Canada, I watched the episodes of 走遍中国 武夷山. I believe if I could watch it before my trip, I would gain more knowledge and appreciation about this place. The TV show has very detail about this place - cultural and natural aspects. Cultural can be dated back to 宋朝.
It is a place worth a trip. Special train is running between 武夷山 & 福州. The train is well maintained with constantly cleaning floor - sweep and mop. I was on a train from 福州 to 安徽. A group of passengers (must be from some local government), they play cards, smoke, shout, totally not control themselves. It is a pretty uncivilized group and give me a bad impression.
