Several must-see attractions in Xiamen

This is a seaside literary city, and Xiamen's islands are famous for their beauty. Speaking Xiamen dialect for the first time, I am not familiar with Xiamen. I don't know which places are worth going. There are some scenic spots that Xiamen has to visit.

Gulangyu/Gulangyu

Gulangyu is a small island in the southwest of Xiamen, with an area of 1.77 square kilometers. A strait 700 meters wide from the city. The four seasons on the island are like spring, the trees are lush, the mountains are rolling, and it has the reputation of a sea garden. It is a famous tourist attraction at home and abroad, because there is a hollow boulder on the island, named after the sound of the waves beating drums. The highest point on the island is called Sunlight Rock, and there is a water platform nearby, where the national hero Zheng Chenggong once trained the navy. There is a villa garden by the sea, and the golden beach next to the garden is a natural bathing beach. There are no vehicles on the island, which is elegant and exquisite. What tourists particularly appreciate is that the residents here have a high cultural quality and the number of pianos ranks first in the country. In the downwind of the moon, the piano sounds melodious, and walking among them has endless charm, giving people an extremely wonderful artistic enjoyment.

Matoujiao

Gulangyu Island is dotted with foreign buildings and streets. In fact, there are many corners that make people linger, but only this corner is called "the most beautiful corner".

At the 45-degree angle formed by the intersection of two streets and lanes, a three-story red brick building resembling a sailboat stands tall, with trees and red flowers on one side. The wooden street sign under the brick building adds more literary flavor.

Windsor Mansion

Windsor Building is located in Gulangyu Guxin Road. It is only 100 meters away from the former site of the American Consulate, Li Jiayuan Lin Zumi's former residence, Huang Jude Hall, HSBC Building and Gulangyu Wharf. The style here is exquisite and elegant, and the rich European style hangs over the whole mansion. From the lobby to the corridor, people feel nostalgic, elegant and petty.

South Putuo Temple

Nanputuo Temple is located at the foot of Wulao Peak in the south of Xiamen Island. Founded in the Tang Dynasty, it is one of the Buddhist resorts in southern Fujian and the seat of Minnan Buddhist College, which has great influence at home and abroad. Nantuo Temple is mainly dedicated to Guanyin Bodhisattva. Today, the incense is still strong, and there are countless good men and women. In particular, Buddhist festivals and Guanyin birthdays are full of incense, so that everyone in the temple wants a incense.

The temple is built on the mountain, with a small layout and many stones. The eaves are arc cornices and corners in Minnan style, and there are many colorful decorations using magnetic shear technology. In addition to the Heavenly King Hall, the Mahatma Hall and the Sutra Pavilion, the main building on the central axis of the temple is the Hall of Mercy. The Great Compassion Hall is cleverly built like a pavilion, and the arches at the top overlap to form a caisson. It is open on all sides, with thousands of Guanyin statues and four sides, facing four doors respectively. The bell and drum towers and verandahs on both sides of the main hall of the central axis are protected as a whole. Along the mountain, colorful eaves and the Cuifeng boulder behind them form a scene that complements each other. The five peaks behind the temple stand on the screen, with pines and bamboos and beautiful rock valleys. "Five Old Lingxiao" is one of the eight scenic spots in Xiamen.

Zuimei Xiamen University

Xiamen University is known as one of the most beautiful universities in China, with Nanputuo Temple on one side, Baicheng Beach and Hu Lishan Fort on the other, facing Gulangyu Island, a world cultural heritage, across the sea. Dry walls and glazed roofs are very distinctive and are known as the architectural style of "wearing a suit and hat".

Xiamen has both the fashionable atmosphere of a modern city and the leisurely attitude of slow life in old Xiamen. When you are free, you can go to the seaside to blow the wind. It tastes slightly salty, but it is the closest kiss to the sea. Or find a literary cafe, listen to music, stay in a daze and spend a leisurely afternoon. Of course, there are some nice photos ~
