Xiamen travel guide for 3 or 4 days

I think living in Gulangyu is too luxurious. Everything is very expensive, let alone accommodation.

When you arrive in the afternoon, go directly to Nan Putuo. Next to Nan Putuo is Xiamen University. The scenery there is very beautiful. In the evening, go to Zhongshan Road to taste Xiamen food. It is also very lively there. Then find a place nearby. Accommodation should be cheap.
