As part of the “4x4” high-speed rail network and with its northern terminus in Hangzhou, the Hangzhou-Fuzhou-Shenzhen Passenger-Dedicated Railway passes through cities such as Ningbo, Wenzhou, Fuzhou, and Xiamen to reach its southern terminus in Shenzhen. Spanning 1,450 km, it connects the Yangtze River Delta, the Pearl River Delta, and several economically developed coastal cities. It is currently the high-speed railway situated closest to the coastline in China.

In this episode, we will travel along the Hangzhou-Fuzhou-Shenzhen Passenger-Dedicated Railway to explore the folk culture of the people residing in the Hakka tulou (earthen buildings) of Longyan City, Fujian Province. We will also go to Xiangshan County to learn about solar sea salt production techniques and a fascinating local custom known as the Xie Yang (Sea Appreciation) Festival.

Lastly, we will head to the renowned scenic spot of West Lake in Hangzhou to see how ancient Longjing (Dragon Well) tea hand-roasting techniques are being inherited and passed down.
