The Lost Gulangyu Island: A Detailed Introduction to Gulangyu Tourism in Xiamen

I collected some tourist accommodations, snacks and scenic spots in Xiamen and published them. I hope you have a good time in Gulangyu, Xiamen and leave a good memory.

1. Transportation: At present, Wenzhou-Fuzhou special railway line has been opened 165438+ 10/1. Friends in the Yangtze River Delta can take the EMU to Fuzhou and then take the high-speed train to Xiamen.

It takes about 6 hours from Shanghai to Fuzhou, 5 hours from Hangzhou to Fuzhou and 0/00 minute from Wenzhou to Fuzhou. Then from Fuzhou North Station to Xiamen, the price is about 100 yuan, and the time is three and a half to four hours. Taking Gulangyu Island as the destination, the station that arrives in Xiamen at high speed is Baisong Station. If you are in a hurry, you can choose to take the bus line from Baisong Station to the train station (1 yuan), 10 minutes to arrive at the train station, then transfer to BRT to the first pier (about 8 minutes and 50 cents), then transfer to L 1 connecting line to the ferry pier (50 cents and 2 minutes' drive) and take a boat to Gulangyu. If you are not in a hurry, you can take a bus directly at Baisong Station, and all buses to the ferry can reach you directly.

Let me give you a heads-up When you stand out from the white pine, walk to your left. The roadside is the Baisong coach station. Don't make mistakes. There are several railway lines, such as from Shanxi, Hubei, Sichuan and other places, but the distance is long and takes a long time, so it is not recommended. At present, Xiamen has passenger trains originating from Beijing, Shanghai, Nanjing, Hangzhou, Hefei, Nanchang, yingtan and Chongqing. Friends who take the train directly to Xiamen Railway Station can take the above BRT to the ferry terminal.

Friends who arrive in Xiamen by plane can choose to take bus No.27 directly to the ferry terminal and Gulangyu Island. You can also choose to take the connecting line L 19 and get off at the back of the county seat, and then take the BRT to the first pier (L 19 is fifty cents and the back of the county seat is two dollars). It's fast, and you don't have to wait for the traffic lights. In addition, some friends who arrive in Xiamen late may not have a bus and can take a taxi. The proportion of Xiamen Island is small, so you can basically go where you want to go around 30 yuan. You don't have to wait for the airport bus at the airport. The time per shift is long and the cost is similar to that of taxis, which is not cost-effective. Let's talk about ferries: Xiamen-Gulangyu special line ferry runs between Xiamen and Gulangyu wharf, and it is the main means of transportation for tourists to cross Lujiang to Gulangyu.

Xiamen Ferry Terminal ferries by boat, with a single charge of 8 yuan (it is only charged when you return to Xiamen from Gulangyu Island, but it is free when you go there). The first flight time of Xiamen Station is 05: 45, and the first flight time of Gulangyu Station is 05: 30 and 06: 00. 07: 00- 19: 00, every ten minutes. 1: 00 -00: 20, every 20 minutes. The whole ferry journey takes about 7 minutes, and the second floor needs 1 yuan. In fact, there is a ferry after 12 in the afternoon, but it runs every hour, so it will take a long time.

Tourist Wharf: Next to Xiamen Wharf, there is also a boat to Gulangyu Island. The environment of the boat is better than that of the ferry, and there are seats with a good view. The fare from Xiamen to Gulangyu Island is 3 yuan money, and when it comes back, it is 8 yuan money. Arrive at Gulangyu Villa Pier (from ferry pier to two different directions). It's a 25-minute drive, and Xiamen runs every 45 minutes, such as 9: 45, 12: 45. Gulangyu Island comes every 10 minutes, for example10:10; 15: 10 and so on. There are also short-distance ferries to and from Jimei, Haicang, Zengying, Shima and Haicheng. In case of bad weather, the sea ferry will occasionally stop.

Attractions: 1) Lujiang Night: On Yanping Road from Ferry Wharf to Sanqiutian Wharf, there are dozens of chairs by the sea, each of which is more than 10 meters apart, facing Zhongshan Road, the most prosperous section in Xiamen. The opposite side is brightly lit, and the sea breeze is blowing in the middle. There are people in a daze and occasional whispers. Pizza Hut on the top floor is said to be the best place to see Gulangyu Island at night in Xiamen.

2) Longtou Road: Longtou Road is the most prosperous place in Gulangyu. During the day, the prosperity here belongs to tourists, and after the evening, the prosperity here belongs to the residents of the island. There are more than 80% shops on the island, one for tourists, buying the same authentic Gulangyu pie and golden dried meat; The other one is for

3) Hao Yuan Yue is located in Fuding Rock Beach in the east of Gulangyu Island, covering an area of 30,000 square meters and distributed along the banks of Lujiang River. This is a garden with beaches, rocks, green trees and pavilions. The park was founded in 1985. Because of a poem "Two Kings of Yanping" in 2000, you can't sleep, and the moon shines on the world. There is a giant bronze statue of Zheng Chenggong and his Ministry, which is 13.7 meters long and 4.7 meters high, and consumes copper 18 tons.

4) Shuzhuang Garden, located on the southeast coast of Gulangyu Island, was built in 19 13. It used to be the private garden of Lin Erjia, a wealthy businessman in Taiwan Province Province. 1956, the owner's relatives dedicated the garden to the country.

Shuzhuang Garden is backed by rocks and faces the sea, with Guan Hai Garden in the east and Gangzi in the west. The whole park is divided into Tibetan Sea Garden and Bushan Garden, each with five scenic spots. These five Tibetan scenic spots are Meishou Hall, Renqiu Pavilion, Luzhen Pavilion, Shi Si Bridge and Zhaoliangting. The five scenic spots of the mountain are the rock house, the twelve caves, and my family's love, listening to the tide building and the small Lanting.

5) Sunlight Rock is the leading scenic spot of Gulangyu Island, including Sunlight Rock and Qinyuan. At the peak of Sun Rock, a boulder with a diameter of more than 40 meters stands in the air and becomes a symbol of Xiamen. When Zheng Chenggong, a national hero, recovered Taiwan Province, he stationed troops here, leaving many touching legends. The rugged rocks, natural caves, waves, lush trees and blooming flowers in the scenic area are full of subtropical romance. There are Yiwa, Lujiang Longdong, Guxia Cave, Longtou Shanzhai, Shuicaotai, 100m Gao Tai and other scenic spots. Many inscriptions on stone carvings by scholars of past dynasties have added ancient luster to famous stones.

Climb the ladder to the top. You can see Gulangyu, Xiamen, Dadan and Xiaodan Islands. Qinyuan has a cable car connecting Sun Guangyan, mainly featuring modern amusement projects, including Bird Garden, Cinema and Hero Garden. It is organically combined with the natural landscape of Sunlight Rock, Dynamic and Static, Present and Ancient. Paying attention to environmental protection, the scenic spot passed the ISO 1400 1 standard in February, becoming the first national scenic spot in China to pass the standard.

6) Underwater World: Not far from the ferry pier, turn right to see a bronze sculpture of a giant octopus, which is the entrance to the underwater world. But it seems that the underwater world of the whole country is similar. This is the world's largest sperm whale specimen captured in Xiamen waters. Those who are interested and have never been to the underwater world can have a look. 7) Xiamen Museum: If you stand at any height in downtown Xiamen.

At first glance, you will find that Gulangyu has two prominent signs: Sunlight Rock, which stands on the first peak of Lujiang River, and Bagua Building, which overlooks the Guxia Strait. Lin Heshou, the original owner of Bagua Building, is the cousin of Lin Erjia, the original owner of Guzhuang Garden. Founded in 1907, it is now the Xiamen Museum. Because the circular red top floor of this building is unique in shape and has the shape of gossip, it is called gossip building.
