1. Snacks:

The famous snack bars in Xiamen are Hao, Wu and Huang Ze River. Wu is famous for his satay noodles and taro buns. The fragrant ones are jiaozi with minced meat, Buddha jumping wall, crab meat continent and spiced rolls, and the yellow ones are peanut soup and leek boxes. In addition, Xiamen's famous snacks include duck porridge, fried oysters and satay noodles. Shade noodles are also famous for Li Si Shade noodles near the Li Si Lake and Wutang Shade noodles in minzu road. Among them, Shili Satay Noodle is the most authentic, and Wutang Satay Noodle is famous for its high price, good taste and average service. As for duck porridge, it is the "Fuyu Datong Duck Porridge" opposite Datong Primary School with the most authentic taste. At the end of Jukou Street, there are two "Beishacha Barbecues". The innermost one is authentic. Lettuce coke barbecue in glass bottle is first-class in taste. In a corridor next to Bessa Tea Barbecue Restaurant, there is a vendor who specializes in selling oyster sauce cakes and shrimp cakes. Their oyster rings and shrimp cakes are quite good, but there is a long queue every time they go to buy them. In addition, Baijia Village also has fried dried beans, which is a major feature of Xiamen. A group of people sat in the middle of an alley, surrounded by a large frying pan, frying seafood, meat, dried beans and so on. Up there, drinking beer and boxing.

2. Restaurant:

High-end restaurants in Xiamen include: Jiali Seafood, Shuyou, Harbour City, Auntie Abalone and so on. Kerry Seafood has a branch on Huandao Road, where you can enjoy the sea view and the opposite Golden Gate while eating seafood (Harbour City is also on Huandao Road). Mid-range restaurants mainly include Peony Restaurant, Yazhu Restaurant and Haoqingxiang Restaurant. These restaurants have many branches in Xiamen, among which octopus and frozen bamboo shoots in Yazhu are the specialty dishes. If you want to eat authentic Xiamen cuisine and Fujian cuisine, you should go to Qingxiang Restaurant, which has a history of more than 70 years and is the representative of Xiamen cuisine and Fujian cuisine. Among them, the Buddha jumping wall with good fragrance is the most famous. In the field of Buddha jumping wall in Fujian, there is Fuzhou Juchun Garden in the north and Xiamen in the south. As for food stalls, there are quite a few in Xiamen. The more famous ones are: Afa soy sauce and Afa food stall. Visitors are advised not to eat food stalls around Huandao Road and Zengcuozha Publishing House, which are expensive and generally cooked.

Second, accommodation.

1. Express Hotel (budget hotel):

There are many express hotels in Xiamen, which are warm and comfortable, clean and safe. Among them, there are some well-known domestic express brands and regional brands in Fujian or Xiamen. It is suggested that if you stay in Xiamen Express Hotel, you should choose Yiting Express Hotel Chain, which belongs to Xiashang Group, one of the top ten state-owned enterprises directly under Xiamen Municipal Government. Yiting Express has the largest number of hotels in Xiamen, with direct stores 10. However, it is best to book a room through its reservation center, because booking its subordinate Yiting Express Hotel through its reservation center can get the lowest price, which is lower than the lowest individual price at the front desk. Its telephone number is 400-882-3333, and its website is www.easy-inn.cn. If you don't want to stay in Yiting Express, you can also choose hotels such as Home Inn, Jinjiang Inn and Hanting Hotel, which are also available in Xiamen.

2. Star hotels:

There are many star-rated hotels in Xiamen, including Yuehua, Quiet Mountain Villa, Sheraton, Baolong and Asia Bay. Serene Villa, a state guesthouse opened in 2008, is about10.5 million yuan. Although you can't see the direct sea from the room, it only takes 2 minutes to walk to the seaside, and behind it is your own mountain range, with vast green space and frequent visits by state leaders. Yuehua Exhibition and Asia Bay Hotel are both near the sea around 600 yuan. Asia Bay Hotel also has its own beach and wooden plank road, about 8 kilometers away from the city center. If you want to see Gulangyu and Lujiang, it is recommended to stay in the ferry area. The better hotels in this area are Donghai Hotel (3-star, Zhongshan Road 1, opened for more than 20 years, tel: 0592-2698888), Windham Hepingli Hotel (5-star, internationally renowned brand, relatively expensive), Lujiang Hotel (4-star, relatively small room,

Third, scenic spots

1. Gulangyu:

Gulangyu Island is a symbol of Xiamen tourism. In fact, Gulangyu Island in Xiamen is really worth visiting. It takes about 10 minutes from Xiamen ferry to Gulangyu on the other side. Usually it is 15 minutes, and the peak time is 10 minutes. The main scenic spots on Gulangyu Island are: Sunlight Rock, Lu Manor, Hao Yueyuan, and there are also buildings of various countries on Gulangyu Island (Gulangyu Island was previously rented by various countries). There are many tourists in Sunshine Stone. At that time, it was a symbol of Xiamen and Gulangyu. When I came to Gulangyu, I had to go to Sunlight Rock. You can directly see the opposite Golden Gate from Sunlight Rock. Since Gulangyu Island was leased by other countries before, it has preserved a large number of foreign consulate buildings and villas in various countries. You can stroll on the streets of Gulangyu Island in your spare time and savor everything contained in these buildings. Among them, the Bagua Building where the Xiamen Museum on Gulangyu Island is now located is the former Japanese Consulate.

Gulangyu has the highest density of piano ownership per capita in China. Basically, every household in Gulangyu has a piano, and Gulangyu has been home to many internationally and domestically famous musicians, such as Yin Chengzong and others. Xinzhuang Garden is built by the sea, with beautiful scenery, and many old pianos are preserved in it, which is of great historical significance.

Tourism products sold on Gulangyu Island will be more expensive. I suggest you not buy it. They are all small commodities that come in from the outside. There is a famous butcher shop on Gulangyu Island, but it sells one pack to tourists 14 yuan, and locals buy one pack to 10 yuan. Pie is a similar price system.

If you have time, you can choose to visit Gulangyu Island in the evening or at night, because Gulangyu Island is very small and the night scene project is quite good. You can watch the sea while walking, and at the same time, you can also look at the night scenes of Gulangyu and Xiamen Island and listen to the light music on the Gulangyu trail. Gulangyu is quite quiet at night, and there is basically no noise. At present, many local people in Gulangyu Island have bought houses in Xiamen Island and moved out. Now there are many Anhui people living on Gulangyu Island, some pulling carts and some buying tourist goods.

2. Nanputuo:

Nanputuo Temple in Xiamen is the most famous ancient temple in southern Fujian. Incense fills the air here all year round, and believers and tourists from home and abroad often come to worship. Especially during the Guanyin Christmas three times a year, there were crowds everywhere from the night before yesterday. Nanputuo is famous for vegetarian cakes and vegetables. You can try it sometime.

3. Garden Expo Park:

Garden Expo Park was built several years ago when Xiamen held the 6th China Garden Expo. The Garden Expo Park brings together all kinds of garden landscapes and buildings from all over the world and all over the country with beautiful scenery, and there is also a large waterfront music fountain performance in the evening. The Garden Expo Park is nearly 20 kilometers away from the urban area, and it is quite large, and you may not be able to visit it in one day. If you don't want to go and see all the scenic spots in 1 day, it is recommended to take a battery car, but it will waste fun.

4. As for other scenic spots, such as Jimei Olympic Park, Hu Lishan Fort and Underwater World. I suggest not to go because there is basically nothing worth visiting in depth.

Fourth, entertainment.

1. Nightclub:

The nightlife in Xiamen is relatively developed, and there are quite a few nightclubs. The most famous works in Xiamen are as follows: A Generation of Beauty, In the Mood for Love, 532 and Golden Zun. There are as many as 1000 women and models in these nightclubs, and they can come to drink and have fun with their guests. The minimum consumption of performance halls and boxes in these famous nightclubs is above 800 yuan. In nightclubs in Xiamen, the most drunk liquor is foreign wine, among which Martell and Ribbon are the brands that drink more. Generally speaking, the first bottle of wine in a nightclub is real wine, but the bottles added later may contain fake wine, so we should pay attention to prevention. 300 yuan is usually the tip for Xiamen nightclubs, and 300 yuan is also the tip for Mommy. If you have more money, you can choose to send flowers, baskets or even crowns. Flower basket price 1 1,000 yuan, crown price 1 1,000 yuan. Nightclubs in Xiamen are still a little expensive in general, but there are many choices for MM.

2. Bar:

There are two famous bars in Xiamen: Duchamp and 180 1. There are quite a few beautiful women and handsome men in these two bars. It's all slow shaking. The atmosphere is good. You can relax when you are free. As for KK, because it is a disco, it is too noisy and prone to accidents. The bar street in Xiamen is now in great decline, the facilities and environment inside are aging, and the flow of people is very small, which is slowly declining. Recently, a new No.9 perfume bar was opened in Bailuzhou Photography Square, and all of them are giving away vodka coupons. You can get a free bottle of blue sky vodka with the coupon. You can try.

3. Sauna:

There are quite a lot of saunas in Xiamen, basically everywhere. The number of formal service saunas is relatively small, mainly Regent. The mid-range formal saunas are mainly Zhenyuantang, Fuyuantang, vats of water and old houses. As for most saunas, they basically provide special services. Generally speaking, the service price is above 300 yuan. Saunas in Xiamen are never checked by the police, which is quite safe, because in order to let tourists stay in Xiamen for one more night and spend more, it will promote the economic development at night.

4. Hot springs

There are two hot spring gathering places outside Xiamen Island, one near Dingxi Reservoir in Tongan and the other near Dongfu Town in Haicang. In these two areas, the most famous hot spring resorts are: Best Western Cuifeng Hot Spring Resort and Riyuegu Hot Spring Resort. These two hot spring resorts are five-star, and both hotels have special buses to transport tourists from Xiamen to the resort free of charge. Cuifeng Hot Spring Hotel will feel better. And recently, the Best Western Cuifeng Hot Spring is doing activities, and 99 yuan sends a buffet to soak in hot springs, which is quite cost-effective.

Verb (abbreviation for verb) shopping

1. Shopping Center:

The well-known and reliable shopping department stores in Xiamen are: Paris Spring Department Store, Leia Department Store and over the rainbow Department Store. These families have high popularity and branches in Xiamen, which is where Xiamen people usually go shopping. As for purchasing internationally renowned brands such as gucci, dunhill, maxmara, hermes and EMPORIO ARMANI, you should go to Xiamen Panji Famous Shopping Center, where all the high-end brands in Xiamen are concentrated, and consumers from Quanzhou, Jinjiang and Shishi often come here to shop.

On Zhongshan Road, there are various large department stores and various types of storefronts, which are the places where Xiamen people often go shopping. At the end of Zhongshan Road, there is a ferry, where you can directly see Gulangyu Island.

2. Major:

If you want to buy some Xiamen specialties, Xiamen specialties are sold in many places, but it is recommended not to buy them around the scenic spots. It is best to go to the supermarket to buy Xiamen specialties, and it is best to go to well-known large supermarkets such as Wal-Mart, Trust-Mart, Carrefour and Metro, where the goods are more authentic and you can buy them with confidence. Xiamen's specialties mainly include: olive, pie, yellow croaker skin, dried seafood and so on.

3. tea:

There are quite a few tea shops in Xiamen, basically everywhere, and you can meet one or two wherever you go. In these tea shops, you can see the tea ceremony and tea culture of Minnan people. Generally, tea shops will let guests taste it for free, and then let them decide which price to buy tea after they are satisfied. People in Xiamen generally use Anxi tea and oolong tea for drinking tea, and tea shops basically sell Anxi tea. Many tea shops are run by Anxi people. They all know how to judge the quality of tea. They often go to Anxi to buy tea and come back for processing. When the tea business was booming a few years ago, many Anxi people made a lot of money by opening tea shops in Xiamen and bought houses and cars. However, Anxi tea has a disadvantage that it is easy to hurt the stomach. Now some unscrupulous businessmen add some pigments and essences in the processing process in order to make Anxi tea more fragrant and look greener, and if you don't know about tea, it is easier to buy Anxi tea in a tea shop than to kill it. If you want to drink tea, it is recommended to drink oolong tea or rock tea, because it is cooked and fermented, which does not hurt the stomach and basically does not add artificial colors and flavors. If you want to buy oolong tea and rock tea, it is recommended to buy oolong tea and rock tea produced by Xiamen Tea Factory. Most of these teas produced by Xiamen Tea Factory are directly exported abroad, and the quality is guaranteed. Moreover, the products produced by Xiamen Tea Factory have a lot of prices, which are suitable for people from all walks of life, ranging from 7 yuan to thousands of dollars.

There are a large number of taxis in Xiamen, more than 5,000, but most of them are concentrated in Xiamen Island. Taxi starting price in Xiamen is 8 yuan/3km. After that, 2 yuan will be charged every kilometer, 50% air replacement fee will be charged after 8 kilometers, and 50% night subsidy fee will be charged after 1 1 pm. Because Xiamen Island is relatively small, taxis in Xiamen Island are generally above 10 yuan, above 20 yuan, and the farthest is near 40 yuan. The main types of taxis in Xiamen are Santana 3000, Hyundai Sonata and Kia Yuan Ship. The bigger taxi companies are Strait and Kunchi, but the best taxi company is Strait Company, and their drivers will be better.

Xiamen's supervision in this regard is relatively in place, and tourists' complaints will be handled in time.

2. Bus rapid transit:

The BRT in Xiamen is actually the same as the light rail in Beijing and other places, except that Xiamen runs buses instead of trains on the bridge. At present, there are three BRT lines in Xiamen, namely the express 1 line from Pier 1 to Huaqiao University Xiamen Branch, the express 2 line from Pier 1 to Xike, and the express 3 line from Pier 1 to Xiamen Convention and Exhibition Center. BRT mainly runs on Xiahe Road and Lianqian Avenue in Xiamen Island, and other roads also have corresponding feeder buses running to BRT stations. The cost of taking the BRT is very low, even lower than the bus, ranging from a few cents to 1.5 yuan, and because the BRT really travels in the air, there will be no traffic jam.
