Foochow (Fuzhou) and the River Min

The River Min has a number of sampans between the north bank and the island with large and small junks between the island and the south bank. Note the very ornate stone carvings on the roof in the right foreground and the black Pi (spirit) residence masts on the island . Negative number P27645 is taken from the same location.
