Collection of Xiamen travel itineraries

My husband and I just returned from traveling to Xiamen on August 8th, and we went there for 5 days. I hope my experience can give you some help.

We first spent 3 days in Gulangyu Island and 2 days in Xiamen.

The first 3 days - Gulangyu Island

After getting off the plane and leaving the airport, walk 200 meters to the left to reach the bus station. Take bus No. 27 to the "Ferry Station" and take a boat to Gulangyu Island. Because we booked a room on the island.

I suggest you stay at Nana’s house. It’s really very bourgeois. The Internet says it's noisy, but it's actually not bad. Closing the doors and windows doesn't affect it at all. The room price on the island is around 250.

When you go to the island, you can first walk around the island to see the scenery. The beach, blue sky, white clouds, and banyan trees are really beautiful.

There are many beachside bathing beaches that you can go to for swimming. Personally, I think the bathing beach in front of Guanhaiyuan is OK.

As for the attractions, you must buy a combined ticket, which costs 100 yuan for 5 attractions.

Longtou Road on the island is a lively area. You can go shopping in the evening and there are many petty bourgeoisie shops.

There are also snacks on the island. I personally recommend the fried oysters and thick fish ball noodles from Lin’s Fish Ball House, and my favorite Ba Po Po’s roasted grass jelly, which is so delicious. , I estimate that I ate 5 cups in 3 days. I loved that grandma so much that she would put more peanuts for me every time.

The next 2 days - Xiamen

We stayed at Jinhou Hotel, which I highly recommend because of its good location, good facilities, and free breakfast.

In Xiamen, we took the Nanputuo-Xiamen University-Huandao Road route recommended online. What impressed me deeply was Xiamen University, which is really charming. My husband and I joked that if we didn’t fall in love while studying at Xiamen University, we would be sorry for the campus environment. The sea is right outside the Baicheng gate of Xiamen University. There are so many people swimming that swimming is not recommended. It is highly recommended to rent a bicycle for 2 people and ride along the Huandao Road, wow! It feels so good! There are dedicated bicycle lanes on the Ring Island Road, which is very safe. We negotiated the price with the boss, it was 20 yuan with no time limit, as long as it was returned before 10pm.

When traveling to Xiamen, you must go to "Little Glasses" to eat seafood. It is best to get there at 5pm. I ordered it and was already in line at No. 98. I waited until about 8:30 to eat. Went to eat again at 5pm the next day, haha. . . You can sit down when you arrive. It's delicious and fresh. !

That’s all. I hope it will be helpful to you.
