Weekend tour of Gulangyu old villa

The child's father went out early on Friday. Thinking that I have been in Xiamen and can't go anywhere, I saw a photo of a friend on vacation in Gulangyu last week and asked for contact information to see another friend. I'm going to spend a quiet weekend by boat on Saturday after my children finish class.

? On Saturday afternoon, I waited for my brother to finish class and took a taxi to the dock. Because my sister insisted on taking her unfinished art works, she was a little sleepy, so she scolded her severely and lost her favorite pearl earrings, and she was in a bad mood. When the car passed the Yanwu Bridge, it looked up and saw the sunset. Seen from a distance, it is much better.

Because it is a local ID card, you can go to the island directly at the ferry pier, and your friend has been waiting by the roadside with the children. Look at us, I'll take care of the baby, and she will help me buy tickets (both children are below 1.2 meters, so there is no need to buy tickets), and then I can go to the island by showing my itinerary code and health code respectively. No matter how many times I have been to Gulangyu Island, every time a boat sails on the Lujiang River, I feel that the scenery on both sides of the strait is very good. In addition, on a sunny spring day, the breeze is not dry, which makes people feel relaxed and comfortable.

After landing on the island, the children shouted that they were hungry. The three children chose to eat KFC, ordered their favorite items, and followed the navigation after eating and drinking (although they were familiar with the scenic spots, they were a little rusty after not taking a tour for many years). In the past, the bustling and crowded leading road, now only a few shops are still sticking to it. Along the way, I told the children some interesting stories about Gulangyu Island. When I arrived at the People's Stadium, my brother was happy to find a big football field. After walking 30 meters, the navigation prompt is wrong. Turn left and go uphill along Huangyan Road. After Lin's former residence, walk 20 meters. The address is No.70 Huangyan Road, the famous "Sugar King" Guo Chunyang Old House (the following introduction about this old house comes from Du Niang, and the personal experience of staying is low-key luxury and rich in connotation, which the villa owner must have).

Low-key luxury, built on the mountain, the villa embraces Xiamen Bay in its heart and has beautiful scenery.

Like many successful overseas Chinese, Guo Chunyang returned to his hometown and built a comfortable villa on Gulangyu Island, a small island where overseas Chinese heroes gathered. It is said that Guo Chunyang's "action" began with 19 19. He first opened Datong, mainly engaged in import and export trade, and then developed and built it on Gulangyu Island. The villa at No.70 Huangyan Road was built during that period.

This three-story villa is hidden halfway up the mountain at the southern foot of Sunlight Rock, and built along the mountain. A large number of stones are used in the building, which makes the whole building perfectly integrated with the mountain. In the courtyard of the villa, there are magnolia trees nearly three feet high. The ancient banyan tree is said to have a history of 200 years. The open crown of the banyan tree seems to want to hold the whole villa in her arms, giving people the illusion of straying into the tree house.

Judging from the building itself, compared with other overseas Chinese buildings, Guo Chunyang Villa does not win. But it is precisely because it is located in the foothills of Sunlight Rock and has excellent scenery that this villa has unparalleled "luxury" in other villas. It is said that when you stand under the veranda of the villa, you can look up at the Jiulong River Estuary and Xiamen Bay. The Wuyudan, Wuyu, Maoyu and the adjacent Qingyu in the sea ahead, as well as the Leyu in the distance, are vivid and vivid, and their horizons are unparalleled by other villas. Today, nearly a hundred years later, standing on the first floor of the villa can still overlook the rows of red roofs of Gulangyu complex. The second floor is shoulder to shoulder with green trees and overlooks the sea. On the third floor, above the green trees, you can have a panoramic view of the sea, and you can even see the hidden sea scenery of Luzhuang Garden. From sunrise to sunset, the tide rises and falls, and the scenery is not greasy. In fact, apart from leaving this little-known old villa, Guo Chunyang has also made considerable contributions to the construction of Gulangyu Island. Now the Golden Elephant Road behind Gulangyu Underwater World is low-key and quiet. However, when this road was developed into a commercial street for people's livelihood in Guo Chunyang, it went straight to Huangjiadu, the most important pier on the island at that time, and its prosperity was better than that of Longtou Road. It is said that the name "Jinxiang" is also related to another name of Guo Chunyang, "Xiang Zhen".

? Children are particularly excited every time they stay in a hotel, and this time is no exception. They have studied all the equipment in the room and are unwilling to go to bed at eleven o'clock. In the evening, I drank three or two bottles of beer and had a barbecue with my friends in the yard. I soon began to feel dizzy. So, I washed and slept first, half asleep and half awake, and the hi child in the next room came back to sleep with his mother.

I was really excited to hear the lively birds singing outside the window at dawn. I went to bed early the night before, so I just got up after sunrise (I just quoted my circle of friends and went back to Quanzhou next door to my home to diagnose 9 cases and was busy filling out various screening forms issued by my teacher).
