After looking through more than a dozen homestays on Ctrip, we didn't expect that Xiyu, hidden in the narrowest alley of West Street, Jinchai Alley, gave us a big surprise. It rained a little that night when the typhoon passed through the city. The narrow alley was matched with big red lanterns and the gurgling sound of suitcases. At the end of the seemingly mysterious and unknown end, a beam of light hit the low but warm little door, and the small courtyard passage with slate and white walls was beautifully presented. We were deliberately arranged on the first floor of the third entrance of the courtyard, and next to it was a white spiral staircase that led to the large platform on the third floor. Without staying for long, we went up to the third floor and saw the twin towers that we had been thinking about. The platform was open and quiet, satisfying all the beautiful yearning for the old city of Quanzhou that we had seen in the guide before. A full hour was not enough for us to linger there and take pictures crazily. The first stop and the first night of the trip to Quanzhou were opened by Xiyu's home. I would also like to thank the two handsome guys at the front desk. They not only gave me sour plum soup and a hand-drawn map of Quanzhou Old Town, but also gave me a detailed guide on the best routes for sightseeing and eating in the old town the next day. It really touched my heart.
