Meeting Gulangyu Island —— Introduction of Xiamen Tourism Guide

Life is not a journey, and all kinds of factors can't make us leave like this. We can go somewhere else. But life cannot be short of travel, not only because of the beautiful scenery, but also because of the impulse to travel and the physical and mental purification brought by travel. I chose Xiamen for this trip, and I just browsed Xiamen's online travel guide in advance. There are many strategies about Xiamen, which are nothing more than Gulangyu and Xiamen University, waiting to go!

Xiamen travel guide

1. There are not many scenic spots in Xiamen, so the bus is very convenient and suitable for wandering.

2. Xiamen seafood is recommended to go to the foreign canteen of Xiamen University. The taste is the same, and the price is cheaper.

3. Look at the weather forecast in advance.

Gulangyu Island is located in the southwest corner of Xiamen Island, 600 meters away from Lujiang River in Xiamen, and it can be reached by ferry in 5 minutes. The climate on the island is pleasant, with four seasons like spring, and there is no noise of horses and chariots, birds and flowers, so it is known as the "sea garden". There are many well-preserved buildings at home and abroad, with different architectural styles. There are traditional temples in China, small and exquisite Japanese houses, and consulates of former western countries with19th century European style. It has the reputation of "World Architecture Expo". People on the island are very laid-back and have opened many romantic shops. The piano museum on the island is particularly beautiful, with beautiful churches and villas. The alley inside is deep, full of classical and romantic flavor. Seafood is cheap, so it is best to avoid holidays.

2. Nanputuo Temple

Tour time: half a day

Admission: free.

Putuo Temple is at the foot of Wulong Peak in the south of Xiamen Island. Founded in the Tang Dynasty, it is one of the Buddhist resorts in southern Fujian. The Hall of the King, the Hall of the Bear and the Hall of Great Compassion are beautifully built and magnificent. All the halls are dedicated to Maitreya Buddha, Three Buddhas, Avalokitesvara with Thousand Hands, Four Heavenly Kings and Eighteen Arhats. Buddhist cultural relics in the sutra depository are rich and colorful, including classics, Buddha statues, bronze bells in the Song Dynasty, ancient books and so on. The blood book Lotus Sutra and the famous white porcelain Guanyin in He Chaozong are the most valuable.

Next to a temple in Xiamen University, the incense is very strong, but it seems that there is no admission. I also like the architecture of temples. The carvings on the roof are different from those in Jiangnan or the north. They are more beautiful and colorful. People released many turtles in the pond.

3. Visiting time of Zhongshan Road Pedestrian Street: It is recommended to visit at night.

Admission: free.

The Chinatown on Zhongshan Road is particularly beautiful at night, with strong Nanyang wind and clean streets. There are many snacks and delicious food. It smells tempting, and Huang Ze and peanut soup are not famous.

There are also many tea shops here. Good people prefer Caoxian South Road, and Zhongshan Road is the head office. There are three floors in total, and the environment inside is very good, which is very suitable for drinking and chatting when you are tired. The burning grass inside is an absolute feature. There are many different ways, but they all taste good, that is, reducing fire. However, if you eat it for the first time, you may not be used to its bitter taste. Just add some milk. Different species have different ingredients, so the amount is sufficient. If it

A friend said that Xiamen is the most suitable city for leisure and vacation, but after a trip, I found that this statement is not wrong! Leisure, comfort and slow pace, isn't that the purpose of vacation?
