The two classic stone pagodas are under maintenance at the moment or I would have rated this excellent.
The grounds are extensive with many beautiful temples and other buildings, some quite good Gardens and excellent trees especially banyans and a 1,000 year old mulberry tree.
This is a functioning complex for training, classes and devotion. It is well supported by local worshipers and it shows unlike some other temples that are rather shabby in parts.
There was an excellent calm and spiritual atmosphere and I just stopped many times and soaked it in before going on to another section. Easy to spend a few serene hours here.

This temple has been in existence for centuries, renovations have kept the place up to date.
The temple is very crowded during feast days but the crowd is manageable on normal days. There are many stalls outside where one could buy offerings for the deities enshrined in the temple.
Don't expect 5-star tourism facilities though (clean toilets, etc.)
This temple is about a kilometer's walk from the Grand Link Hotel (Jinjiang Baohui Hotel).

在浏览过的博物馆类建筑群中，蔡氏古民居建筑群可以算是独一无二，充分验证了既有钱又有权的人是怎么生活的：现代感十足的彩色地砖，1两黄金换1两土的镂空泥雕，匠心独运的多层木雕窗，别出心裁的石柱浮雕，开出五色花的茶树......大到一间屋一面墙，小到一块石一个字，处处体现了两三代主人对漂洋过海一生的沉重总结和对子孙后代的美好愿望，史家典故到南洋传统都这么糅杂在一起，再加上特殊时代的气氛的乱入，犹如一段剪不断理还乱的历史，就这么搁在南安一片田地中

This is a place of great religious significance... commemorating Lao Zhi (老子) who is deemed the founder of the Tao religion (道教).
Although a tourist attraction with the statue of Lao Zhi (老君岩), it is quite peaceful and serene.
Worth a visit if you want to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city.

We visited the Chengtian Temple during our bus tour of Quanzhou. As described elsewhere this is one of the few well-preserved Buddhist temples in Mainland China complete with a large garden surrounding it. The main features include the two stone pagodas, east and west, which dates back to about 800 years. Definitely worth visiting.
