As an old aunt in the early 1980s, with a touch of literary and artistic complex, and has checked in many Internet celebrity attractions, Xiamen is naturally a city that cannot be missed. I remember six years ago, I bought a plane ticket and booked a hotel. As a result, a typhoon just outside the door blew all the plans away. This time, I discussed with my friends to have a good tour of Xiamen at the end of June, before the arrival of the student wave.

General itinerary

1. Time: The original plan was 4 days and 3 nights (smiling), but the flight delay turned into 3 days and 3 nights (crazy). After playing, I felt that if purely Internet celebrities checked in, 2 days and 2 nights would be enough (hehe).

2. Accommodation: Zengcuo 'an-Zengfei' er Garden Hotel. (I read a lot of strategies before traveling, and they all said that I had to stay in a local B & B when going to Xiamen, so I gave up the hotel and chose a B & B that was full of the city atmosphere. It turns out that except for small points, everything else is okay, but the key is cheap (laughter))

3. Check-in places: Zengcuo 'an, Xiamen University, Nanputuo, Twin Towers, Shapowei, Maojie, Huandao Road, Gulangyu, Botanical Garden, Jiuwu Warehouse, Internet Celebrity Cafe.

4. Transportation: (plane),(taxi),(cruise ship) 5. Food: seafood, continuous ice, Tongluoyaki 6. Cost: round-trip (plane)+(house)+(car)+(cruise ship)+ Attractions + Various food and drink, totaling about 1700 yuan.

travel guides

Arrival: The plane landed at Gaoqi Airport at 11:30 in the middle of the night. The moment the plane flew over the Yanwu Bridge, it felt great to fly close to the sea. (I couldn't take it on the plane, so I downloaded a picture with the same feeling online. Thank you to the author)

In the evening, I took a taxi to Zeng Cuo 'an Zeng Fei' er Garden Hotel. At the moment when I got out of the rental, various shops in Zeng Cuo 'an were closed. I dragged my luggage and felt that living here was a wrong choice. Later, I gradually fell in love with it here. The boss was very enthusiastic and the environment was good. We stayed in a double room. The price was 178 for the first night and 266 for the next two nights (the price increased on weekends). The room had toiletries. The important thing was that it also had mosquito repellent toilet water, which played a major role in the later days. Very considerate service.

DAY1:8:30 Xiamen University.

Knock on the blackboard and mark the key points:

1. Minnan has strong characteristics and lush vegetation;

2. There are a lot of mosquitoes. If you are a mosquito recruiter, you must bring good mosquito repellent products;

3. Don't find scalpers on Taobao if the number of visitors reserved on the public account is less than that. There are many at the south entrance of Xiamen University, and the price is cheap.

Bullshit travel notes:

Institutions of higher learning are always something people yearn for. I always hear people say that Xiamen University is one of the most beautiful campuses in the country. There are white and beautiful beaches on the campus, so before I came, I had already made various mental remarks about Xiamen University. To visit Xiamen University, you must make an appointment in advance on the "U Xiamen University" public account. Although the peak season has not yet reached, it is already a rush. Unfortunately, there is no second. Finally, I found a scalper on a certain treasure, 70 yuan per person (the most unjust money spent on this trip). In fact, scalper was a staff member of Xiamen University. He asked us to gather at the school gate, and he drove us in. We had a total of 5 adults and 1 child in one car, crowded with 6 people. We entered the gate and drove to a place where there were few people to drop us down. After careful calculation, he easily earned 420 yuan by pulling a cart like this. The scalper told us that if one person gets 400 yuan during the Spring Festival peak season, such a high ticket would probably rank first in the country. On the other hand, if you think about such a good business, it will be difficult not to get rich quickly. I immediately called my classmate who was hesitating whether to change jobs and told him that he must come to Xiamen University to work. When we made the money, we would share the money together. Later, I even specially helped him go to Nanputuo Temple to make a wish and ask for the blessing of the Buddha to go to Xiamen University!!!!

1. Xiamen University's architecture: Jiageng style (specifically what is Jiageng style, please go to Baidu for those who are interested). To sum up in one sentence, it is not middle, not western, not ancient, or new, but it has a strong sense of impact on the place. I will symbolically list a few pictures for the specific type. In short, it is very unique. If I go to Xiamen University again, I will definitely visit every building here.

2. Xiamen University Green Plants:

The vegetation is lush and the trees are shaded. There are both thin and tall palm trees and large banyan trees with large crowns to protect you from the wind and rain. The shortcoming is that there are too many mosquitoes (heartbroken bee)

3. Xiamen University cuisine: I really don't think there is anything to introduce (embarrassed little bee). When looking at the map, I found a building that looked a bit like a UFO and had a roof that looked like the top of the Temple of Heaven. I realized it was Qinye Restaurant when I walked in. Unfortunately, it is not open to the public and is only for teachers, students and staff of the school. Fortunately, I borrowed a card from a warm-hearted little brother and successfully obtained soy milk and fried dough sticks.

I had lunch at the restaurant from Furong Tunnel. I forgot the name, but I could see it there anyway. The third floor is open to the public, and the price is okay. I ordered a portion of shredded chicken salad, a portion of scrambled eggs with tomatoes, and a portion of fruit for 62 yuan.

4. Internet celebrities among Furong Tunnel, Lovers Valley, and Human Museum Furong Tunnel Internet celebrities must check in.

Lovers 'Valley is a hillside, no different from an ordinary park. It is hesitant that the weather is hot, so I withdraw after walking for a while. I have always wanted to go to the Museum of Humanity, but I couldn't find it. Unfortunately.

12:30 Nanputuo Temple

When you come out of the south gate of Xiamen University, you will reach Nanputuo Temple. You don't need to take a taxi or take a bus. You have to walk for a distance of tens of meters. In order to show respect for the great god, Nanputuo Temple's Buddhist holy site, no photos were taken. The inside was not large, but due to the heat at noon, I felt uneasy. It took about 40 minutes to visit it. I just did one thing and made a wish for my classmate to wish that he could come to Xiamen University for a high job. At Nanputuo Temple, I, a Jiangnan native, made an astonishing discovery. It turns out that white orchids can be towering trees. Suzhou has potted plants at home, and occasionally old ladies will sell them on the street.

14:00, Twin Towers

The Twin Towers should be landmarks in Siming District. Nanputuo Temple is actually very close to the Twin Towers. Within a 20-minute walk, you will pass the main entrance of Xiamen University and Cat Street, which is actually quite good. But it was so hot that the old aunt decided to take a taxi, but because of the proximity, she was refused to take him twice. The Twin Towers podium is a Wanda business district. You can go to the movies to avoid the scorching sun in summer, or there is also a lovelorn museum inside. Go to the Star Museum to check out your card. The ticket price was 180, but it was not worth it, so the old aunt moved to the cafe in the main building to escape the heat. There are many romantic cafes in the Twin Towers. Just look for them online and the owner will come downstairs to pick you up. We chose a cafe on the 45th floor and forgot the name, but it was really nice. Standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows and overlooking the sea, you can still clearly see the statue of Zheng Chenggong. I ordered a red velvet cake and three drinks, which cost a total of 130 yuan, which is equivalent to a ticket for one person to the Twin Towers Observation Deck. It was worth it.

15:30 Shapowei Art District

Knocking on the blackboard and drawing key points: small ornaments, mainly checking in to take photos

Bullshit travel notes: No, it's purely about finding the best position to take a photo.

17:00 Cat Street

Knocking on the blackboard to draw key points: There are many snacks, but not many shaped cats, which is quite deceptive.

Except for the two cats at the entrance and exit, and the two cats in the middle, they are gone and the water is very good. Of course, you can also go for a walk just to pass the time.

18:00 Seafood stall

When he came out of Cat Street, his legs were already protesting and he decided to forage for food and repair himself. The driver recommended the seafood stall next to Pearl Bay Garden and readily accepted it. Because Pearl Bay Garden is at the west gate of Xiamen University, very close to Hulishan Fort and Baicheng Beach. In fact, all the attractions mentioned above are around Xiamen University. From the south gate to the west gate, the starting price is 3 kilometers away. I ordered three dishes, a yellow snail, a flower clam, and a white shellfish, and cost a total of 310 yuan (this should be the most expensive expense for this trip to Xiamen except air tickets. The key taste is still average)

19:00, Huli Mountain Fort, Baicheng Beach

After eating and drinking enough, he drove his own "Road 11" to Hulishan Fort and Baicheng Beach. The Huli Mountain Battery Scenic Area is quite large and has a small building area. It was closed. After looking at the cannons and buildings outside, it was evacuated. Baicheng Beach feels average. The sand in the upper half is okay and quite fine. The sand in the lower half is too painful. It should be called gravel.

20:30, Zeng Cuo 'an

Coming out of Baicheng Beach, lazy people took a taxi to Zengcuo 'an for a stroll and rest. The main entrance of Zengcuo 'an is very grand, but when you walk inside, you will obviously feel like a small fishing village. All kinds of small shops, all kinds of snacks, and accessories are the same all over the country. In fact, I don't like such places very much, such as Zhongshan Road in Xiamen, Wangfujing in Beijing, Hui Street in Xi'an, Confucius Temple in Nanjing, and Guanqian Street in Suzhou. It feels like they are open for tourists and have no local flavor. Summarize Zeng Cuo 'an's shops: pork jerry, tea shop, jewelry shop, or kebab shop. It repeats every dozens of meters, which is meaningless. Now that we were here, we had to go back to our residence, so we walked and looked all the way, and wandered back to our residence.

DAY2: Huandao Road, Gulangyu Road, Zhongshan Road

After reading many strategies, they all introduced Huandao Road. Moreover, we live in Zengcuo 'an, which is right on Huandao Road, making it very convenient to travel. Drawing on the lessons of the previous day, the schedule of the trip was adjusted.

5:50 Huandao Road Consumption 120(likes)

Knock on the blackboard and mark the key points: It's really beautiful and you can't miss it! If you want to take beautiful photos on the Huandao Road in summer, you must seize the morning when the light is softest, early and early!

In summer, you can't even think about riding a bicycle on Huandao Road, so change to Huandao Road to watch the sunrise. If other seasons come, I really suggest spending a day shopping around the island road. Every attraction is worth spending some time. The sun is already up when I go out at 5:30. If I could go out earlier, it would be more perfect. We called a taxi at the entrance of Zengcuo 'an, agreed with the driver for 120 yuan, and took us to the roundabout road. Each scenic spot must stop for more than 20 minutes, and then sent us to Xiagu Wharf for a boat. Facts have proved that this driver is still quite powerful, and his photography skills are not good enough, so he has become a private photographer.

1. Zengcuo 'an Music Square is very lively at night

2. Unfinished buildings on Huandao Road

3. Yefeng Village

Huangcuo seaside, the sand is fine enough and the sea water is clear enough. It is the most worth visiting beach.

Huangcuohaibian

One country, two systems, the Olympic Sports Center, the end of the roundabout road.

8:40 Gulangyu Inner Cuoao--Riguang Rock--Shuzhuang Garden--Engraving Hall--Organ Museum--Coffee Shop--The Most Beautiful Corner

Knock on the blackboard and mark the key points:

Be sure to take measures to repel mosquitoes. There are too many mosquitoes. If you want to take photos quietly, it's best to take the early boat, otherwise it's just running water.

Bullshit travel notes:

I didn't buy a ticket for Sanqiutian Wharf, so I bought a ticket for Neicuo O Wharf. The main attractions of Gulangyu are near Sanqiutian. It takes an estimated 40 minutes to walk from Neicuo 'ao. There are basically no scenic spots on the road, they are all residential areas. It is recommended to take a car to save energy. Encounter a super big tree root and turn on pat mode

Sunlight Rock Overlooking

Sunlight Rock overlooking (it is already noon and the light is bursting again)

shuzhuang garden

Walk around the island. The buildings on the island are all Southeast Asian style, and now they have become various B & Bs and romantic cafes, which are very good. If you have the opportunity, you must take advantage of the spring when flowers are in full bloom to come and stay for a few days. (Hehe)

I spent the afternoon sun in the cafe, with sufficient air conditioning and smooth WiFi.

16:00 Return---Zhongshan Road

Tap on the blackboard to mark the key points: When starting, tourists can only take a boat from Xiagu Wharf. When returning, they can choose to return to Xiagu Wharf or Citizen Wharf. It is very fast from Gulangyu to the Citizen Wharf, estimated to be 10 minutes, and it is Zhongshan Road when you come out. It is a good choice.

Bullshit travel: After walking halfway down Zhongshan Road, I drank Huang Ze and peanut soup. I felt that the pedestrian streets across the country were similar. I might as well go back to my place to sleep and conserve my strength.

DAY3: Botanical Garden---Huamei Art Space (Old Warehouse, Boiler Cafe)

6:30 The Botanical Garden knocked on the blackboard and marked the key points:

1. No tickets are required to enter the Botanical Garden before 7:00. Don't listen to the scalpers saying that the Botanical Garden is too big and it's easy to get lost when climbing the mountain from Nanputuo.

2. The cactus and rainforest world are halfway up the mountain. Shoes should be comfortable to wear. If you buy a ticket and take a minibus, ignore it.

3. The rainforest world needs spray to look good. Summer is from 8:30 to 11:00, 15:00-17:00 every day. 4. Don't forget mosquito repellent products!!!

Bullshit travel notes: In summer, you must take photos early and have good light; secondly, if you are worried about rain, you must rush to the Botanical Garden early. Citizens who followed the morning exercise walked in through the side door. Sure enough, no tickets were charged. Hahaha, save it.

13:00 Old Warehouse + Boiler Cafe

The old goods warehouse requires advance reservations, and it is full of old goods from the 6-= 1980s. It is suitable for petty bourgeoisie, the things inside are more expensive.

The Boiler Cafe is a renovation of a factory building. Nowadays, there are many such loft buildings. Chongqing's Meixin Foreign Street is also like this. If you go to Chongqing, you must visit it. It is highly recommended!

This day was the easiest of the three days, and I still chose to escape the scorching sun in the cafe. Thinking about it later, you can actually go to Jimei Village for afternoon tea. Assuming you just check in to an Internet celebrity attraction, you can put the Botanical Garden on the first day. This way, two days will be enough, but it will be really tiring.

Harvest: 1. Various likes from friends circle

2. There are 72 bags all over my body, but I haven't seen the murderer yet.

3. Tired body and happy mood
