Before leaving, I searched for many strategies online. After I came back, I sorted out my own strategies, hoping to help our friends from Foshan and Guangzhou who went to Xiamen for parent-child tours. I stayed one extra day because of the child's birthday, but in fact, three days are enough. I went there at the end of July during the summer vacation. It was very hot.


Day 1: Go to Xiamen-Check in a hotel and rest-Baicheng Beach-Tour around the island and ride bicycles-Play in the sand by the beach and watch the sunset-Eat snacks in Zeng Cuo 'an

Day 2: Gulangyu-Underwater World-Longtou Road snacks-Take a ferry back to stay in a hotel

Day 3: Xiamen Science and Technology Museum-Go to Jukou Street to eat snacks-Go to Bashi to buy seafood-Return to hotel

Day 4: Wake up and buy a letter on Zhongshan Road-go home


(The following pictures of attractions are screenshots of the guides I made before traveling)


OK: Most of them take Didi or bus (1 yuan)



Eat: Regarding food, you can actually pay attention to Xiamen's local public accounts and have many local recommendations. And there are still many places I haven't been to this time. We didn't go to Shapowei, Maoye Street, Nanpu Temple, Botanical Garden, etc. Because we all slept until almost noon before getting up, some attractions were cancelled.

(Most of the food shown in the picture is near Jukou Street in Siming District)









There is a 202 seafood stall nearby where we live. It's a good pit. One pound of shrimp costs 98 yuan/catty. Then I went to Bashi the next day, and it only cost 23 yuan/catty. Later, I bought it myself and processed it.

This is Bashi Seafood Market



High-speed rail: 40 minutes from Foshan West Railway Station to Shenzhen North Railway Station, and another 4 hours to Xiamen Station, take Didi to Zhongshan Road or take a bus. Come out of the North Square of Xiamen Railway Station (If you have children and luggage, it is recommended to take Didi instead of taking taxis. It is very confusing to not use the meter, so I always use Didi)

Warm reminder: After arriving at Shenzhen North Railway Station, guests will climb the escalator. There is no need to leave the station to see the green sign of the transfer channel. Please hold a two-way ticket and pass through the direct waiting hall. Pay attention to the train number shown on the electronic display screen. Check the ticket number you hold. At the waiting gate for the train number, go to the waiting gate in time to wait for the train. You can also refer to this warm reminder when transferring from Shenzhen North to Guangzhou South on your return journey. (If you cannot find a transfer passage or waiting gate, please ask the station staff in time for help to avoid delays in the high-speed railway. Please pay attention!) In fact, the transfer is very fast. If the high-speed rail is not late, 10-15 minutes will be enough. (Children less than 1.2 meters do not need to buy tickets)


Gulangyu: Pay attention to the public account: Xiamen Ferry Co., Ltd., when it comes to purchasing tickets (because the island is restricted to people, you can't buy tickets for the desired time period if you are late), go to the cruise center Xiagu Pier and take a boat for 35 yuan to Shantutian Pier. At the terminal, children also need to purchase tickets online. After arriving at the terminal, they can pick up tickets at the self-service machine. Adults can just use their ID card to pass through. The ticket purchased includes a round-trip ticket. In fact, it is still relatively convenient for children to apply for ID cards and travel without having to take a household registration booklet. (Try to reserve more time for security inspection)


Xiamen University: Pay attention to the public account: U Xiamen University, you can enter the school after 5 p.m., book tickets three days in advance, unlimited on weekends, and bring your ID card (Because we couldn't make an appointment, we didn't go in, so we went to Baicheng Beach to play, and hit the Didi Just hit Baicheng Beach. Don't choose the bicycle rental point at Baisha City Beach. It's a completely different direction. I almost went in the wrong direction. Fortunately, the Didi driver asked me clearly, otherwise I would be really stupid)


Xiamen Science and Technology Museum: In the Xianyue Road Culture and Art Center in the city center (buy a set ticket, I booked online to buy the theme exhibition hall + children's museum + movie theater), the museum is closed on Mondays from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. It is recommended to bring some dry food and water, because children are reluctant to leave. It is recommended to take Didi. It is a bit far to take the bus.

Note: When going to Baisha City Beach, it is best to bring an extra set of clothes or swimsuits to change. We didn't bring them, so the children don't have to play in the water. But there are also super many people. Go all the way to the left and you will find Zeng Cuo 'an.


Accommodation: Ruishe Hotel (Xiamen Zhongshan Road Douxi Branch) Electric Control Building, No. 209 Douxi Road. The hotel is good, the curtains are smart, the toilets are also smart, the waiters are very considerate, the toilets are equipped with hair clips, and there is a laundry room on the third floor. I am not afraid of traveling and changing clothes stinking. The most important thing is that the washing products are all British light luxury brands. They are very comfortable to use and really good. The waiter smiled and said hello, making it feel like he was home. I even gave my children food when I left, and there was also free coffee and drinks at the front desk. Moreover, it is in the urban area, and there is food downstairs. It is not too far to go to Zhongshan Road. You can walk around the Laocheng District, and it is not far from other scenic spots. We usually use the drip, so it is very convenient. We also take the bus. The bus can go wherever we want for 1 yuan. I booked a regular room for the first two nights, and a parent-child room for the third night. There were some fun places and the children liked it very much.



Zhongshan Road and other Laocheng District: The first reaction of Zhongshan Road is that it is similar to our Beijing Road and Shangxiajiu, but it is much larger and has a lot of traffic.

Travel items:

1. Wear: 4 sets of adult clothes, 6 sets of children, sweat towels, coats, hats, socks, underwear, towels, glasses

2. Use: charger, charging cord, charging treasure, shaver, small fan, facial cleanser, moisturizer, sunscreen, anti-lost belt

6. Dry food: bread, water, cup noodles, eight-treasure porridge, candy,


Cost: (My two children are not enough to reach 1.2 meters, so I don't need a lot of fees)

Return journey: Xiamen Station-Shenzhen North 183 yuan/person, Shenzhen North-Guangzhou South 75 yuan/person, Guangzhou South-Foshan West 10 yuan/person
