Singing Stone - Cloud Sea View Guesthouse: A Poetic Retreat Between Mountains and Sea

I. Guesthouse Introduction "Singing Stone - Cloud Sea View Guesthouse" is nestled in the Northern Ecological Corridor of Pingtan Island, Fujian, with mountains at its back and the sea in front. It gets its name from its main building, which is a renovated local stone house (shítoucuò), and its breathtaking sea views. The guesthouse retains the original charm of Pingtan's traditional stone houses, where rugged stone walls meet exquisite modern interiors, creating a unique aesthetic. Large floor-to-ceiling windows frame the azure sea and sky like a natural painting, and at night, the sound of waves lulls you to sleep, as if the stones are singing the ocean's poem. II. How to Get There Geographical Location: Baisha Village, Baiqing Township, Pingtan County, Fuzhou City, Fujian Province (along the Northern Ecological Corridor) Recommended Transportation: Self-drive: Navigate to "Singing Stone Guesthouse". Approximately 1.5 hours drive from Fuzhou, where you can enjoy the scenery of Pingtan Cross-sea Bridge along the way.
