Tell me about this trip
Xiamen is synonymous with romance. Its picturesque scenery and literary atmosphere have become a check-in destination for many people. Gulangyu, Zengcuo 'an, Xiamen University, and Shapowei, in addition to countless beautiful scenery, there are also long-coveted seaside delicacies that will leave a deep impression on everyone who has been to Xiamen.
Xiamen has both the vicissitudes of history and modern fashion. A heart-warming shop, a deep alley, and an ancient villa all tell the story of Xiamen's past and future. Xiamen's unique charm is deeply attracted to me.
Although I am in Guangzhou, the capital of food, and enjoy endless delicious food every day, as a foodie, I still have a heart to eat all over the world. Having been busy with work, I finally had the opportunity to go straight to Xiamen to meet with my friends.
big traffic
There are many means of transportation from Guangzhou to Xiamen, and the most direct means of transportation are aircraft and high-speed rail.
1. Xiamen Gaoqi Airport is located on the island. After getting off the plane, you can choose to hail a taxi or take a bus to the city, basically within half an hour.
2. There are few direct high-speed trains, and most of them need to transfer from Shenzhen North Railway Station. The whole journey takes about 5 hours. To choose the high-speed train, you need to see clearly whether the arrival station is Xiamen Station or Xiamen North Railway Station. Xiamen Station is located on the island, and it takes more time to reach the city from north to the city.
Gulangyu, which everyone yearns for
When you come to Xiamen, you must go to Gulangyu. Every day, many people come to Xiamen and board Gulangyu by boat. Naturally, there is no need to introduce too much about Gulangyu. People who know Xiamen must know Gulangyu, stroll around the island to experience the rich history, or enjoy a leisurely vacation time.
Gulangyu Island and Xiamen are only separated by a 600-meter-wide Lujiang River, which can be reached in a few minutes by boat. Nowadays, Gulangyu Island has long become a check-in point for Internet celebrities. There are many tourists visiting Gulangyu every day. Once again, it is important to remind that you need to book ferry tickets from official channels 15 days in advance to Gulangyu Island, especially during holidays, it is almost hard to get a ticket.
1.88 There are hundreds of villas scattered on the square-kilometer island on the slopes, coasts and green trees. Most of these buildings are hundreds of years old. Everyone's travel purpose is different. Most of the things I love here are related to history, and I want to find out about every building I like.
When you come to Gulangyu, you must go to Riguang Rock. Standing here, you can have a panoramic view of the whole of Xiamen.
Ticket information:
1. Riguangyan: 50 yuan/person
2. Couple ticket: 90 yuan/person (including Riguangyan, Shuzhuang Garden, Haoyue Garden, Organ Museum, International Lettering Art Museum).
Villa high-end private kitchen: 1927 Dongyuan Private Kitchen
About eating, about where to eat, this is an eternal topic. Some people like the market and others like privacy. This time, I want to introduce a century-old villa located on Zhongshan Road, Xiamen. After the baptism of time, it turned gorgeous and transformed into a private kitchen.
This building is called Siming East Garden. It is located at No. 65 Siming East Road, one of the oldest streets in Xiamen. It still retains its unique existence despite the rapid changes. Business here has always been good, and meals have to be booked in advance!
