Where is the best place to take pictures in Xiamen?

Xiamen is a very beautiful place with scenic spots. Today, Bian Xiao will tell you about some scenic spots and the best places to take photos. Everyone can go there.

Shiwan Botanical Garden

Photo highlights: psammophyte rainforest

Shiwan Botanical Garden is a popular shooting place for online celebrities in recent years, among which "succulent plant area" and "rainforest world" are the easiest places to shoot large films. The "fleshy area" is full of columnar and massive psammophytes, and the camel statue of a family of three is like a desert. When the sun is hot, you can avoid indoors. Pure white window frames and transparent glass can also be used as fresh and natural photo albums.

Dress suggestion

With dark green psammophytes as the background, the photos taken by different styles of clothes have completely different textures: dark plain clothes can give people the feeling of high-end magazine style; Brightly colored clothes can capture the girlish feeling of lively sunshine.

The key to taking good photos in the rainforest world is to catch up with the spraying time twice a day. The mist rising between the trees and the pond seems to cast a shadow over the rainforest. You'd better wear a fairy white gauze skirt to take pictures here. It is worth mentioning that, thanks to spraying and shading, "Rainforest World" is the coolest area in the whole botanical garden.

Ding' ao zaimao steet

Photo Highlights: Cat Statue and Graffiti Cat Museum

This street is not long, it is not an exaggeration to say that you can see the end at a glance, but it is a must-see for cat lovers. In those days, there were statues of two cats, one black and one white, in Lu Yu, just at the gate of Cat Street. Not only these two cats, but the whole street is full of cat elements. No matter the walls, windows, street lamps and telephone poles, they are all decorated with cat graffiti. In addition to statues and graffiti, desserts in coffee shops and handicrafts at roadside stalls are also themed on cats.

When I went to Cat Street, I naturally went to the Cat Museum. This cat-themed museum is the first in China. There are more than a dozen different kinds of cats living here, so people can't help but press the shutter with lazy eyes and soft ears. The museum also sells dolls, pendants, ornaments, wallets and other creative gadgets based on cats. The shapes and packaging of handmade gifts such as nougat and biscuits are really cute.

Opening hours: Cat House Opening hours: 10:00-22:00.

Admission: you don't need to buy a ticket to enter the cat house, but you need to buy a ticket to enter the glass room where the cat is located. 10 yuan/half an hour, only 30 tickets are sold every day.

Suggested tour length: Quanmao Street 1 hour.

Photographing skills

Cats are allowed to take pictures in the museum, but flashlights are not allowed.

Dress suggestion

The overall street style is fresh and lively. It is recommended to wear clothes with bright colors and casual styles. However, because the overall color of Cat Street is blue, it is not recommended to wear blue clothes.

Gulangyu Gu Xin Road 18

Photo collection: the most beautiful corner

In Gulangyu Island, dotted with foreign buildings and streets, there are actually 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.

People who have been there joked that this corner is not only the most beautiful, but also the most difficult to find, even if you follow the navigation. The most beautiful corner is located at Guxin Road 18. Turn right from Sanqiutian Wharf and go uphill, pass the former site of American Embassy, and walk for 5 minutes. There are many people taking pictures here, and even many wedding photography teams, so it's best to go and see them in the morning.

Photographing skills

1. Because the red brick building in the corner is very high, in order to take panoramic photos, the photographer needs to lower his posture and even lie on the ground to take pictures.

2. A person walking from the left street to the corner and a person walking from the right street to the corner can create a romantic feeling of "meeting love at the corner".

Furong tunnel

Photo highlights: personalized graffiti

Furong Tunnel, located in Xiamen University, connects the student canteen and the student apartment from west to east. Because of its 1 km graffiti wall, it has become a must-see attraction in Xiamen. These graffiti are all created by Xiamen University students, including personal works and works of colleges or societies. People who are experiencing or have already bid farewell to student life can make a fuss about graffiti content.

Graffiti is updated irregularly, but some classic graffiti, such as "I love you, Goodbye", "Starry Sky" and "One Piece-To the Future", will not be covered by new graffiti, and you can punch in wherever you go. There are also several newly renovated coffee shops and letter shops in the tunnel fork. If you are tired, you can sit down and have a cup of coffee, or choose a souvenir from Xiamen University.

Opening hours: weekdays 12:00- 14:00 (limited to 300 people at noon) and evenings 17:00-24:00 (not limited to people); There is no time limit on weekends.

How to get there: Visitors can only enter the school from the west gate (near Xiamen Xicun Station) and the south gate (near Xiamen University Station) with their second-generation ID cards.

Tour mode: it is convenient to walk at any time, scrutinize graffiti and take photos. It is convenient to visit the whole tunnel and each branch lane in a short time by bike. However, motor vehicles are prohibited from passing through the tunnel.

Tour route: No matter whether you have only walked a part of the road or have come to an end, it is recommended to turn back the same way. If you go directly out of the tunnel, you will also go out of the campus, and tourists cannot enter again. Go to the end and go back the way you came. It takes about 1 hour to go back and forth.

How to make photos interesting?

1. Interaction with graffiti. For example, holding a sky lantern in your hand before doodling can create a sense of movement.

2. Flexible use of props. For example, before doodling in the "starry sky", turn on the flashlight of the mobile phone and hold it in the center of the starry sky to create a dazzling effect.

How to avoid the crowd and take pictures?

There were many tourists near the tunnel entrance, and almost every graffiti was photographed. The farther you go, the fewer tourists there are, and you can take as many pictures as you want.

Lianfa huamei space

Photo highlights: industrial style nostalgic retro

Formerly known as Cigarettes Factory Lianfa Huamei Space, it is a new literary landmark in Xiamen. The former tobacco warehouse and electric boiler room have become today's fashion show and art center, with restaurants, cafes and creative shops full of personality all over the park. Tall old factory buildings, rusty cast iron windows and dark green giant boilers are all excellent materials for taking pictures of industrial style.

"goodoneOldWarehouse" is a must-see photo resort in the park. This "oldest coffee shop in the world" is littered with many old things, including utensils and stoves in the kitchen in the last century. A beat is nostalgic and retro. Boiler coffee is another good place to take pictures. The old boiler of the old factory is preserved here, and even the tableware is full of industrial style. Coupled with lazy blues music, the old days slowly flowed.

Opening hours:

Old warehouse 9:00- 18:00

10:00-22:00 make coffee with a boiler.

Per capita consumption: The average per capita consumption of coffee shops is in 45 yuan.

Tour time: 2-3 hours.

Transportation: Get off at Huamei Station or Huachang Station.

Photographing skills

Even if you don't shop, the park is full of retro elements that can be photographed. There is also a large roof space garden on the second floor of the commercial street, which is a fresh and natural style.

Dress suggestion

In order to match the industrial style, you can choose dark neutral clothes, such as leather clothes and military boots. For the nostalgic effect, retro clothes and copper ornaments are very suitable.

Yanwu bridge

The bridge closest to sea level in the world

Yanwu Bridge on Huandao Road, with a deck elevation of only 5 meters, is considered to be the bridge closest to sea level in the world at present. At high tide, the sea is almost flush with the bottom of the bridge. Standing on the closed observation deck, you can have a panoramic view of the ships coming and going on the bridge, or you can look up at the nearby Twin Towers and overlook Gulangyu Island on the other side.

Dusk and night are the most charming times of Yanwu Bridge. At sunset, the bridge outlined a black line on the O-shape.

If you want to photograph the magnificent scene of the seawater clinging to the bottom of the bridge and need to catch up with the high tide, you can check the tide table of the specific high tide time every day on the website of China Maritime Service.

Photo Highlights: Urban Fireworks and Gas Extreme Department Store

Eight, the full name of Xiamen eighth vegetable market, in fact, is not a scenic spot, but the place where local people actually live. Six or seven in the morning is the best time to visit these eight cities. In the vegetable market, hawkers' cries, bargaining arguments and unloading cars are intertwined. Coupled with the fishy smell of fresh seafood, the fragrance of fruits and vegetables, and the hot air of freshly baked snacks, Xiamen is the city that likes fireworks best. The fifth floor includes bookstores, grocery stores, tea rooms, cake shops and cafes. The decoration in the building is quaint and nostalgic, which is a good place for shopping, taking photos and writing letters to players. On the top floor of Jizhi Department Store, you can have a panoramic view of eight cities from top to bottom. Narrow streets, ancient buildings and bustling crowds can all be photographed together.

Opening and closing time: 6:00 am and 7:00 am are the busiest times in eight cities, and stalls will be closed at 8:00 pm, and some barbecue stalls will open after 10:00.

Tour time: 1-2 hours.

Photographing skills

Don't bother to avoid the crowd when taking pictures of the eight cities. The bustling crowd can add fireworks to the photos. It should be noted that if you take close-ups of people, you need to get the consent of others in advance.

Dress suggestion

Because the eight cities are mainly fresh seafood, it is inevitable that there will be sewage on the market floor. Be careful not to wear long skirts or shoes that won't get wet.

Xi anlu flower and bird market

Photo highlights: various flowers and glass greenhouses.

Although it is a flower and bird market, except for a pet shop selling hamsters and rabbits at the end of the street, the whole street is wholesale with flowers, both single flowers and potted plants, and the price is far lower than that of the flower shop outside. There are not many people in the market, most of them are locals. Compared with the busy vegetable market, it is more peaceful and quiet, but it is also close to the local living atmosphere.

People who come here to auction flowers and buy brightly colored and beautifully packaged flowers can also buy a small bunch of props to take pictures at other scenic spots. Tired, you can go to the "Lahouse" coffee shop at the market exit, echoing the flower market in the distance. The coffee shop is full of flowers and green plants, and there is a sunny glass greenhouse at the entrance. You can sit here and drink coffee. Your eyes are full of colors and your nose is full of flowers.

Transportation: Park East Gate Station or Douxi Road Station.

Tour time: 1 hour.

Three suggested currencies. Generally speaking, a bouquet of flowers 10-20 yuan, a pot of green plants 5- 10 yuan, and a beautifully packaged bouquet is not higher than 100 yuan.

Photographing skills

It is recommended to arrive at the flower and bird market in the early morning. Flowers are the freshest at this time, and most people come to buy flowers, so that you can take natural and fresh photos full of life.

Dress suggestion

Because the colors of flowers are already very rich, it is recommended to wear light and plain clothes and a straw hat.

Baijia village

Photo Highlights: Time-honored snacks in Centennial Street.

In the 1920s, due to the construction of Zhongshan Park, hundreds of households moved here and gradually gathered into today's hundred villages. Besides the old buildings with vines, the most attractive thing in Baijia Village is the fireworks in the market. Vegetable market, grocery store, food stall, old teahouse and tailor shop are all here. Pick up the camera and walk down the street. Taking pictures with your heart can record the most authentic taste of Xiamen.

At dusk, Baijia Village became a lively gathering place for local snacks. Fists buzzed on cheap seafood stalls, and long queues formed in front of famous old shops. Many locals drive to eat Li You's salted duck, A Niu's good ginger duck, octopus and infinite fried tofu, which is the best way to get close to local life.
