Zhangzhou is a gentle, easy place by any standards. The Zhangzhou Binguan is the place to stay with rooms for the budget traveller as well as the extravagant.
Mark Fong is a good friend who will be pleased to show you the ins and outs of the city and take you to the Hundred Flower Village, the main botanical market on China's south coast. He's an English major at the Zhangzhou Teachers College and a professionally compensated but economical guide.
For more information about the city, take a look at the fanciful site http://amoymagic.com/fujtrzhangzhou.htm
