The floral headdress, a traditional symbol of Xunpu women, is called Zanhuawei in Quanzhou, a port city known as one of the starting points of the ancient maritime silk road. The flowery headwear is made of fresh flowers and hairpins and was included in the second batch of national intangible cultural heritage in 2008.
