about sightseeing tours

Every Dream Package is a wonderful travel experience. While visiting Xiamen, we chose Shanshan's tour guide, which saved us a lot of attention, and the key point was that the service attitude was very good. Shanshan's tour guide helped us share our luggage and walked to which attractions we reached along the way until we had enough fun. She never urged us. She would change the attractions we wanted to visit according to the weather conditions. The price was very high and we would not arrange for us to go to various shopping stores. The whole trip was a tour guide who took a few of us to tour, which was relatively OK! Before setting off, I communicated with her to learn a lot of details about free travel before setting off. In the past, I used to travel with a group. When I chose free travel for the first time, I naturally had many questions to ask. However, Shanshan is a very nice person and always went out of my way to answer various questions for me. She gave me many suggestions and route planning before I went out.
After writing my travel notes, many friends sent me private letters asking for Shanshan's contact information.
Here I recommend Shanshan to everyone. Her phone number is: 1327-6961-528 [WeChat Synchronization]

Some people say that travel is to see the infinite scenery of the world, reach adventurous places that ordinary people cannot reach, or find a place to be secluded from the world. However, I think travel is to meet a better self in the poetry and distance we aspire to. For me, travel is more like a gift. Almost everyone has heard that the original intention can be achieved by not forgetting the original intention. However, few people know the next sentence: the original intention is easy to get, but it is always difficult to keep. Now we are busy with the trivial things around us and return to ordinary things. In ordinary life, there must always be a beam of light to illuminate dreams that seem dangerous and unrealistic. This trip was a quick trip, an appointment with a best friend, and a ticket was booked. Just like this, the trip of three people started!
Xiamen is the ancient name of Egret Island. Its real origin is actually that people first landed on the island and saw egrets floating in groups on the water for many years, so they named it Egret Island. Xiamen is like a clear stream in the midst of prosperity, quiet and elegant, literary and romantic. The sun is strong, the waves are gentle, and scenery is everywhere. I want to slow down and experience the slow times in old Xiamen.

I have a date with Dahai on Huandao Road

Arriving in Xiamen at noon, the airport took the Airport Express directly to Zengcuo 'an and went directly to the "Youdu Bieyuan".

Zengcuo 'an is a fishing village. The village is not big. It only takes 10 minutes to circle around. Except for local residents, most of the white-collar workers from Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou. The family hotels that come here ~~~ are of different styles. You can choose more online. Personally, I think that a family hotel called "Youdu Bieyuan" is very good. It feels super good ~~, the service and hygiene are very good, and the rooms are very beautiful. Overall, I am very satisfied. If you go, you must book a room online in advance ~~ Because during the past few days we stayed, people have been walking around with luggage and asking if there is a room. It's very pitiful ~~~

Sitting in the courtyard in the afternoon, making a pot of tea, watering the flowers, and basking in the sun.

Every city has its own unique location. I want to choose an inn with stories and characteristics. This trip did not rush to the attractions, but wanted to see the most authentic residence of Xiamen people.




The location of "Youdu Bieyuan" is also great, a 2-minute walk to the beach.

The beauty of Huandao Road is a combination of many aspects. Roads, beaches, palms, seaside B & Bs, sea, and Muzha Road are all just right.

Huandao Road is built along the coast. It is the main track for the Xiamen International Marathon and is known as the most beautiful marathon track in the world. Poi/22849.html Huangcuo Beach is the most natural and cleanest beach on the entire roundabout road. If you want to get close to the sea in Xiamen, this is the best choice.

Born on an island, my love for the sea has been deeply rooted. Going to the poetry and distance we yearn for, I still love looking at the sea.

Embrace the sun, blue sky, and sea

The long coastline stretches as far as the eye can see. {data:{has_more:true,html:

The sun is shining brightly, the salty and humid sea breeze is blowing in your face, red tiles and green trees, blue sea and blue sky

Facing the sea, flowers bloom in warm spring

There is a snack street around the old house. It is very convenient to pass by when we go back.

I bought a big watermelon to quench my thirst. It was very sweet. There is watermelon and wifi in summer, what more can I ask for?

Stroll in the clouds and watch the sea in Xiamen, the place closest to the sky

When I came to Xiamen this time, the most surprising thing for me this time was-Shimao Twin Towers poi/34802980.html Sea and Sky Walk! Jingmei ~ Fun ~

The biggest surprise discovery-at the highest place in Xiamen, the romantic challenge of 300-meter-high outdoor walking

This place is called Sea-Sky Walk, and you can overlook the entire Xiamen from the high altitude outdoors. The whole person is so happy that he is about to jump ~~

Release yourself at the top and meet a different yourself ~

Walking on the sea and sky, outdoors, without guardrails, fully transparent plank road, tied to safety ropes, and watched the sea from the highest point of the city. The beautiful scenery you can see from your perspective feels really great. The sea breeze blows on your face and the beautiful scenery is in full view., your eyes are full of purple clouds.

Looking straight at Tower A from Tower B, the sunset shines, and the scenery on the opposite line of sea and sky is really amazing. Looking at Xiamen's scenery from a new perspective will give you a new taste.

Because I liked the scenery here, I stayed from afternoon to evening, watching the sunset and the afterglow gradually dissipate, and then I reluctantly left. The night view was beautiful.

Professional staff will guide the wearing on site, and even the shoelaces will be carefully checked whether they are fastened tightly. Anti-falling ropes will be worn on mobile phones, and glasses will also be worn to prevent slipping, so don't worry about safety issues throughout the process.
For dinner, we chose Niuniu Jiangmu Duck Restaurant.

Oyster Pancake

Spiced roll


People clamored to eat frozen bamboo shoots. Why didn't you eat it later?

I heard that the raw material of bamboo shoot jelly is sea worms!!!

Xiamen is really fascinating in literature and art. Leaf specimens, I want to take them all away.

I used to want to make dried flowers. The tutorial was quite interesting. I would dry the flowers like drying clothes until they dry. I would definitely make one myself when I have the opportunity.

A bottle like a star, can I make a wish?

Foodies always come to the food stall at the same time. The taste of the four-fruit soup is wonderful.

The eyes longing for the big mangoes were drunk. But Xiamen's fruits are really delicious, and I may be the same.

Shapowei, when retro meets literature and art

The beautiful life in Xiamen begins from sleeping until waking up naturally. For the convenience of travel, we went to the B & B near Zeng Cuo 'an.

After resting for a while, we set off for Shapo Wei. Shapowei is a shelter for the old Xiamen Port, with many fishing boats moored side by side, which is a microcosm of the life of the fishermen in old Xiamen. Not only does it have rich historical heritage, but it is also a new tourist destination in Xiamen now. Nowadays, although the scenery here has faded, it basically retains the original appearance of the old Xiamen Port.

The most pleasant thing in midsummer is to drink authentic lemon tea. The lemon tea from pomegranate Shiliu is very good. It is brewed for half an hour and tea for five minutes.

Wandering around in an unfamiliar city, every corner of the small streets in the market is full of scenery.

Walking through the old streets makes people feel happy.

The most beautiful thing is nothing more than fireworks in the world. An old man who knows how to craft is doing his work seriously. His little grandson will look at his novel toys one time and run out to play another time.

The tranquility in the downtown area is old but not decadent.

There are mottled old stone roads, rusty iron rings on the bank, brand new Spring Festival couplets are still posted on the dilapidated door edges, and occasionally a few egrets fly by with their wings, chasing children eating ice cream. There is no summer at the end of the sand slope.

Time here seems to be stagnant and it is full of market flavor.

Quoting the words of Shen Shihao, a well-known Xiamen writer, in his article "Rereading", where the scenery is pleasant, you can visit the old, taste the new, and you can slowly taste the harmony between man and nature, between people, and between tradition and modernity. The charm of the shadow.

Leave a blank planet, no one green plants offline, and open new retail of green plants.

There is an ice cream shop on the bank of Shapowei. It is a very personalized shop. It does not open on rainy days but only opens on sunny days, so it is called "see you on sunny days."

Cat Street, Cat Museum, and the ubiquitous cat culture still give this street a unique cultural atmosphere.

Take a walk with me at Xiamen University in Xiamen ~ Wow ~
Students are so happy to study here. The campus is so beautiful. If I had known, I would have studied hard...

Black swan of Furong Lake

Greetings from a girl from Northeast China.

Furong Tunnel full of art.

I feel a lot about us walking on the lush campus two years after graduation.

Encounter Old Xiamen in the bustling neighborhood of Zhongshan Road

Zhongshan Road Pedestrian Street is the oldest commercial street in Xiamen. It was built in 1925 and is a well-deserved landmark in Xiamen. Xiamen Zhongshan Road is about 1.2 kilometers long and is the only commercial street that has direct access to the sea. The most unforgettable scenes are those arcade buildings with a strong southern ocean style. Qilou Street on Zhongshan Road is a representative of Xiamen's architectural culture. It is home to major shopping malls, as well as a variety of Fujian-Taiwan specialties.

Small shops in Xiamen are all so exquisite.

I ran into Zhang Sanfeng Milk Tea Shop and liked the signature milk tea.

Walking into an alley, I met an old store recorded in Xiamen on the tip of my tongue. Strictly speaking, it has no storefront. It is a small cart. It is a typical local snack. It is a dark alley, but it is crowded with people.

There are many people in line, waiting for delicious food. Recommended dishes: Jukou Mixed Noodles, Shacha Noodles, Seafood Soup, Oyster Pan-Fried. What I ate was a surprise, and the taste was really ancient.

The taste is excellent and the stomach is extremely full.

Having enough to eat and drink, walking along the roundabout road, listening to the waves, and gently blowing the sea breeze is really a kind of enjoyment.

Telling stories on the seaside in Xiamen and talking about our respective lives, it feels like it is simply ~ We are in front of the stars and the sea, and we want to sing a song.

I met little Princess Satsuma on my way back.

Every B & B has a touch of emotion. I heard that the owner is a painter.

Xiamen's charm is not only the beauty of food and beauty that cannot be disappointed, but also hidden in the leisurely and attentive attitude of local people in the small streets and alleys.

Yunshuiyao is the place where romance begins

The front desk of the B & B helped us contact the bus to Nanjing Yunshuiyao and Yongding Tulou.
For breakfast, we had snacks from the old man's roadside stall. Tea eggs, peanut soup.

I still use the most traditional way to make breakfast. What a careful tea and eggs, the amount of tea leaves is touching.

This is not a rotten banana, this is a super sweet red banana.

We were a little excited when we set out, but the beautiful scenery did not disappoint us and even exceeded expectations.

Yunshuiyao Ancient Town is an ancient village with a long history. The ancient road, century-old banyan trees, magical earthen buildings, and the clear water of Lingshan Mountain all give people a feeling of detachment.

According to the "Changjiao Jian's Genealogy", the Changjiao Jian people began to migrate out from the fourth generation (during the Xuande period of the Ming Dynasty) to the 16th generation, and people surnamed Jian could come here for free.

It is so beautiful that it can be described as amazing.

There are always green trees and beautiful reflections to encourage us to move on.

If you are tired from walking, take a rest.

Travel is a practice, travel is an unknown encounter, cloud and water ballad gave me a long-lost surprise, and the scenery in the mountains gave me a different visual impact.

The original intention of Yongding Tulou preserved in the castle

Say goodbye to the road, cross the mountain stream, and walk into the first legendary tulou, and the world suddenly becomes quiet.

Tulou, because most of them were built by Hakka people in Fujian, are also called Hakka Tulou. Tulou originated in the Song and Yuan Dynasties and matured in the late Ming Dynasty, Qing Dynasty and Republic of China. It uses soil, wood, stone, and bamboo as the main building materials, uses unbaked soil and mixes it in a certain proportion of sandy clay and clay sand, and is rammed with plywood. House of more than two floors.

Tulou, as an architectural form that Fujian Hakka people are proud of, is a treasure among Fujian folk houses. At the same time, it incorporates humanistic factors and can be called the epitome of the combination of heaven, earth and people. Dozens of households and hundreds of people went to the first floor together, reflecting the family tradition of Hakka people living together and living in harmony.

Huaiyuan Tower is the most exquisite and well-protected double-ring round earth building. The name of Huaiyuan Tower has three meanings: 1. Missing relatives in the distance. 2. The owner of the building comes from far away in Huaidi, Henan. 3. Instruct Jian's children to have the great ambition of Huaiyuan and reach a higher level. Huai uses virtue and people to cultivate Qi and abide by the teachings of our ancestors. When mountains are far away and rivers are near, we can cultivate humanities with their talents.

Hakka tulou architecture is a crystallization of ancient and modern Chinese culture. It is a peculiar mixture of backward productivity and high civilization. It is said that tulou is a house built on a swamp.

They are perfect in technology and function, have high aesthetic value in shape, and contain profound content in cultural connotation.

You can vaguely see traces of some aborigines, but those left behind are basically some uncles and aunties, so try not to disturb them.

Who am I and what am I doing?

Feel the changes of time through the mottled cracks on the wall


The essence of culture, then perhaps not architecture, not history, but life, the life of ordinary people.

Back in Zengcuo 'an, the snack street started walking.

xiachedan

Make coconut jelly now.

This is a bar built on a boat

Come to the cabin in Dabing, I hope you and I can travel around the world from nine to five, like his words. Maybe deep down, I yearn for this kind of life, but I have no choice but to keep choosing to climb.

Although the scenery is beautiful, the scenery on the road should be harvested. Reading Da Bing's book many years ago seemed to open up a new world. There were so many different lives in the world. Read his book again and start thinking about what kind of lifestyle you are leading.

A cup of Thai soy milk, a bottle of romantic flowers and a room full of people listening to folk songs and stories.

Enjoy the time here, make a stop for what you like, and just sit quietly like this is great.

Gulangyu went to the paradise to find childhood memories

When you get up in the morning and bask in the sun in the garden of the B & B, you can view the mountains and seas by the folk customs on the mountain. The location is in Zengcuo 'an, but the environment is particularly good, allowing you to be quiet in the middle of the noise. When we went and left, the young man at the front desk was very enthusiastic about helping us carry our luggage and transporting it to the mountains and down the mountain using a conveyor belt.

The boss is very humorous and always makes us happy. We were bitten by mosquitoes on the mountain. He said it would be good if it wasn't his golden retriever. Of course, the golden retriever is very cute.

The boss shared with us the red bayberry he bought. It was sour and sweet. Xiamen's red bayberry is definitely the best I have ever tasted. So during the few days in Xiamen, we ate a lot.

Xiaoqi, the beautiful girl at the front desk, captured the comfortable time.

I heard that their family is recruiting volunteers, can I go

The daily life here is to stare at the sea in a daze, tease the golden hair, go to the garden and drink tea. It's even more exciting.

Set off for Gulangyu. Gulangyu can only be reached by boat. Remember to buy tickets in advance, otherwise there may be no tickets that day.

Gulangyu recommended staying for one day so we wouldn't be in a hurry. We chose a mountain B & B with an elegant environment. On Gulangyu, in addition to the carefully carved buildings exuding historical tranquility, the most spectacular ones are these bearded old banyan trees, which remind me of the picture of Journey to the West...

After getting off the boat, we found the hotel for 10 minutes. The small courtyard in the mountains was like a peach garden outside the world. Thinking of Tao Yuanming's Peach Blossom Garden, the young man at the front desk was extremely enthusiastic. He helped us carry our luggage and settle them in, and introduced us to poi/829.html Gulangyu.

B & Bs stay away from the hustle and bustle and find the original intention of life in the slow-paced life.

I was moved by the tranquility here. This natural and simple beauty was intoxicating, so I immediately invited a photographer from Gulangyu to take a photo. Fortunately, it was not the peak season.

Life is always busy, with trivial matters, work that can never be done, and there are few opportunities to contact nature.

Come here, be busy and slow, live attentively, and listen to yourself deep inside.

The winding path leads to the secluded place where the meditation room is deep with flowers and trees.


Be with nature and get along with your self.

At this point, you can be company with the breeze, flowers and trees, and we can enjoy the tranquility of the courtyard together.

The B & B is so comfortable. The service is meticulous, even toilet water is prepared, and you truly feel at home.

After having a good rest, we went to the restaurant recommended by the front desk guy: a bite of Benyang dishes. This store is a house that is more than 100 years old and cannot be hidden in an elegant restaurant. Even if you visit it once, it is worth remembering!

While waiting for food, stroll around the old house.

This sea garden city is ancient and exquisite. We didn't buy a joint ticket for Gulangyu attractions, just wanted to see wherever we went.

Riguang Rock, climb to the highest point of Gulangyu Island in poi/829.html to see the whole picture of this garden city.

Old tree roots on the mountain.

Old houses can be seen everywhere on the island, and the garden-style decoration tells its past history all the time.

All kinds of exotic buildings give this island a unique temperament.

Take a walk here, stare blankly, take photos, and enjoy the time here.

Laid and lazy cats, earthen buildings that can be seen everywhere on the street, and Gulangyu Island surround piano music, embracing European civilization.

Shuzhuang Garden was originally the private garden of Lin Erjia, a wealthy Taiwanese gentry.

Shuzhuang built a garden along the sea. In the sea hidden garden, the mountains are surrounded by holes, and rocks are built to supplement the mountains, which sets off with the mountains and water in the distance and are integrated into one.

The path is full of flowers and green trees are lined.

The towers, pavilions and pavilions built have different shapes, but they have bridges and low railings, shaped like a swimming dragon.

Hey, isn't this the big plant of ins?

There is a piano museum hidden in Shuzhuang Garden.

The Piano Museum had a limited time piano performance. Fortunately, we made it too.

The museum in Gulangyu is another way to open this island.

The sun is shining brightly, the salty and wet sea breeze is blowing in your face, and the seaside, red tiles and green trees, blue sea and blue sky are shuttling through the old buildings in southern Fujian. This is the most beautiful memory of this summer.

Go to Longtou Road Food Street for dinner in the evening. 1980 Shacha Noodles with Roasted Meat Rice Dumplings + Roasted Grass + Minnan Meat Dumplings. It tastes good, Xiamen's specialty food

Grandma Lu's southern Fujian handmade dessert, mango puffs.

My favorite peanut soup is delicious.

Miss Zhao's shop

Are you secretly looking at me?

Along the small road along the snack street, I can't walk long, and I get tired and want to go back to rest. I thought the night market had no end and I could keep walking as long as I wanted to. It's not always possible to disappear with growth. In addition to the night market, there are also carefree youth.

Botanical gardens, crossing into the deserts of Central America

I like flowers and trees very much. How could I miss the Botanical Garden in Xiamen and become happy to go there?

Xiamen Botanical Garden can also be said to be very surprised.

In the meaty area, you can see endless variety of different types of cactus, as if you are in tropical America.

Tropical rainforest area, find out. It is said that the rainforest world is said to have dry ice sprayed, like a fairyland. I feel more like a heat wave...

Have you seen a rainbow?

Start eating mode. Tang banquet

This is a celebrity store.

The food is delicious and the environment is elegant. The life of Xiamen people is refined and leisurely.

It was time to go home after dinner. The waiting time for boarding at the airport was quite difficult, so I went for tea.

Maybe life is like a cup of green tea that needs to be carefully cooked, from taking water to heating, washing, brewing, smelling, and tasting tea... Every step requires careful reading. Life can be dull, but it cannot lose its luster. Life can be firewood, rice, oil and salt, but it cannot lose taste.

What we can do is to grasp the present and make every minute and second full and meaningful.

Travel is like a box of chocolates

Traveling is like a box of chocolates. Facing a beautiful box, you don't know what each one inside will look like or what it will taste like. But no matter what, they will be the scenery of your life. Facing the unknown world with a sincere and kind heart is probably the best trip!

Sharing this travel note is to record the beauty of the journey and gradually like the freedom and freedom in the article. In fact, life is like this. Wealth and wealth are not indispensable. Just remember your original intention, get close to nature, and maybe you will become more calm and calm.

A fireworks rush into the night sky, you don't know what shape it will burst into. It's like at some point on the road, you suddenly know what you want. The things that I couldn't understand, whether all the confusion about it, were answered at that moment. Isn't it a kind of luck to be able to return to life where you gave you strength? Whether in the city or in the mountains, living my love for life is the most important thing.
