One-day tour guide to Jimei Mei Village

The one-day tour guide to Jimei School is as follows:

First go to the Dragon Boat Pool, which is one of the most unforgettable memories for many Jimei students after graduation. After school, walking by the dragon boat pond with the sunset is a very good memory. There are several glazed tile-roofed balconies, verandahs and pavilions built around the poolside. The Nanhui Pavilion in the middle of the north bank is the main viewing platform and command platform. Corridor style, together form a unique dragon boat pond landscape.

Go to Nanxun Tower. The towering Nanxun Tower is located on the seaside of Jimei Mei Village. The doors and windows of Nanxun Tower are in Western style, and the roof of the building is the Chinese Pavilion with Jiageng tiles. The peak, green tiles and cornices are majestic, like a bird's wings stretched out, and the Western style and Chinese retro style are perfectly reflected in it. In particular, the word Jimei on the top of the Nanxun Building tower makes this building the symbol of Xiamen Jimei.

The origin of the school village

The patriotic overseas Chinese Mr. Tan Kah Kee established a school in his hometown of Jimei. By September 1923, it had established kindergartens, primary schools for boys and girls, normal schools for boys and girls, middle schools, fisheries, and commercial departments. There are hospitals, libraries, and science museums, with nearly 2,000 faculty and students, 32 school buildings, and an area of ??more than 93 acres. Because the melee caused serious nuisance to the school, Mr. Tan Kah Kee and the principal called for ensuring the safety and tranquility of the school and requested that it be designated as a permanent peace school village.

After obtaining commitments from the north and the south, we sent representatives to the Beijing Congress, the State Council, the Ministry of Education, and the Fujian Provincial Council with petitions and various documents to request approval of Jimei as a school village. We must earnestly protect it, and at the same time, ask leaders and celebrities from all over the country to sign a certificate and declare to the Consular Corps in Xiamen that if something happens to Jimei Mei Village, we will ask them to advocate for justice and provide moral assistance.
