Then, return to Zhongshan Road Pedestrian Street in the evening. The entrance to Taiwan Snack Street is at the "Ferry Post Office Bus Stop". It is recommended to eat less of those snacks, as they are all fried and easy to get angry.

D3: Go to Wanshi Botanical Garden in the morning and Jimei School Village in the afternoon. We will spend almost a whole morning at the Botanical Garden, so be careful to maintain your physical strength. In the afternoon, you have to walk to Aoyuan Garden and Dragon Boat Pool in Jimei Mei Village.

D4: You can get up later in the morning because you have visited almost all the main attractions in Xiamen. If you like to visit the vegetable market, you can get up and go to Xiamen's largest vegetable market, Bashi, and have breakfast there. After breakfast, you can go to Huaxin Road to see Xiamen's old villas and take photos. If you like flowers, you can also stop by. Visit the Second City Flower and Bird Market, stroll around Xiamen Zhongshan Park and stop by Baijia Village to buy the famous ginger duck. Return to the rest area in the afternoon and prepare to return.

Laolv’s accommodation suggestion: Xiamen Island is actually very small. It doesn’t matter where you stay as long as the transportation is convenient. It’s best to stay along the BRT. It is recommended that you stay in the Lianqian West Road area where you can go to any scenic spot. There are cars inside and outside the island. It is close to the seaside of the Xiamen Convention and Exhibition Center and there are several large commercial plazas nearby. The key point is that accommodation nearby is cheaper than the crowded Zhongshang Road and Zengcuo'an. When you go out, you don't have to compete with others for buses or taxis.

PS: If you are booking a B&B or youth hostel, you can choose where to go, or you can choose from Yilong, or you can locate it directly on the map.
