After going to the island, buy a pass for Gulangyu Island, 80

Yuan, you can visit Sunlight Rock, Bird Garden, Haoyue Rock and Shuzhuang Garden. On the island, we first visited the Underwater World (tickets are about 70 yuan). We came out after 11 o'clock, and then went to the commercial street for lunch. I heard that there are three snack bars there, and they are very cheap. They are all Fujian and southern snacks, which are not bad. Recommended by netizens: Noodle paste (opposite the Longtou Road wet market, only available in the morning, business is booming) followed by the fish balls on Longtou Road, a snack that every tourist here must try, this restaurant is very famous. The most unmissable thing is Ye’s Mochi, which is super delicious and passed down from ancestors. What I bought back was Wong Sheng Kee’s meat floss (a small store opposite Yip’s Mochi is only as big as the aisle, where many people often queue up to buy). You can also buy Wang Kee pie, which is delicious and makes a great gift.

After eating, we went to Sunlight Rock, a famous scenic spot on Gulangyu Island, and played until 3-4 pm. Then we visited Bird Garden, Haoyue Rock, and Shuzhuang Garden in sequence. We took a boat back in the evening and checked into the hotel. —Chunguang Hotel (just opposite Gulangyu Island, the price is moderate, you can stay here!), after washing up, go shopping on Zhongshan Road Commercial Street, and eat while shopping.

1: Bamboo shoot jelly at the south gate of Zhongshan Park

2: Huang Zehe on Zhongshan Road

3: Wutang Shacha Noodles on Zhongshan Road

4: Zhongshan Road Datong duck porridge, fried oysters

After shopping for 1-2 hours, you will go to SM City Plaza or Mingfa Commercial Plaza.

Back to the hotel.

After breakfast the next day, we went to the Wanshi Botanical Garden in Xiamen and climbed the mountain to the famous scenic spot-Nan Putuo. After the sightseeing, we drove to Xiamen University, then went for sightseeing along the Huandao Road, and then to the Huli Mountain Fortress. Looking at Taiwan Island in the distance. Cross the Haicang Bridge and enjoy the scenery along the way!

On the third day, you can go for a cruise on the Kinmen Sea and take a boat trip to Kinmen, but you don’t have to go ashore. It is still 100-200 meters away from Kinmen. You have to decide for yourself, and then go to Jimei Tourist Area. I heard that there is The Zodiac is built on a mountain, so you have plenty of time. You can spend a day here swimming!

On the fourth day, you can go to Haicang Bridge, cross the Haicang Bridge and then go to Haicang Zoo (it seems to be called this, haha!!)

You can spend the rest of the time You can arrange it freely, you have too much time, I have only been there for two days, haha~

I wish you a happy trip! ! !

PS: Some suggestions from netizens found on the Internet:

Travel souvenirs:

Shopping: Xiamen’s main specialty is Gulangyu pie (there are many types) , golden floss, seafood, dried fruits, tea (oolong tea), etc. It’s best to compare shopping

Souvenirs: < Stone sculptures, especially shadow sculptures, are worth buying. There are many souvenir shops on Gulangyu Island. You can go in and choose one or two pieces. Maybe there is something you like. Reminder: Read more, ask more, shop around, don’t follow the trend, and don’t be greedy for small profits.

Things to note when traveling to Xiamen for shopping

Shopping at tourist attractions in Xiamen, especially Gulangyu Island tourism and shopping. Merchants selling goods along the street are popping up one after another, and first-time buyers don’t know which one to buy and what to buy. Follow me. . . . The "basic" specialties to buy in Xiamen are: Gulangyu pie (authentic brand: Sunlight Rock series products, Chenji series products), meat products (Golden Fragrance series meat floss, authentic only one small shop on Longtou Road, the entrance There is a sign of a Chinese time-honored brand. The products of this small shop have a history of more than 100 years. Seafood products, pearls, etc. are all available. It depends on your eyesight, but I am checking one or two reputable shops to sign contracts with them. After signing the contract, I recommend it to everyone. Yingdiao is also a good product and can be purchased. As for the tea that costs 10 yuan a box, don’t buy it. Most of the dried longan is made with flour and sugar. Recommended to buy, I have never bought a good one (halo). Friendly reminder: read more, choose more, and shop around.

I personally recommend spending more time on Gulangyu Island in Xiamen, maybe on the first day. It is more interesting to find a tour guide to lead the way. The rest of the time you can travel around the island by yourself. Some places have very beautiful scenery, but tour guides generally won’t take them there because walking takes time. If you have enough time, you can walk around the island and stop and go. The stop lasted about four hours, which was a bit tiring but very enjoyable. My boyfriend and I only visited Gulangyu Island twice. How long? Tour guides generally won’t give you that much free time.

Sunlight Rock, Taiwan Folk Village, Haoyue Garden and Shuzhuang Garden have better natural scenery. In addition, there is also the Huandao Road in Xiamen. I actually want to go there, it’s great! But if you are lying on the grass by the sea, you must pay attention to your belongings!

(Note: If you want to eat in Gulangyu Island, you can find some local snack bars. They are not bad. If you want to eat seafood, I suggest you go to the nearby beach to find a food stall after playing on Huandao Road in the afternoon. It is affordable and affordable. Local specialty. You can also bargain with the boss before ordering!)
