It was my first time to go to Kinmen, and also my first time to take a boat to the mainland. I usually take a plane✈️ Xiamen is really good for shopping. I stayed at the #Quanji Hotel on Zhongshan Road Pedestrian Street. There were many clothing stores nearby, 3 pieces for 100rmb. It was very good to buy. I couldn’t fit my luggage on the way back😂 Xiamen has a lot of food that is very similar to Taiwan, but with local characteristics. I like the dry fried ginger duck very much, it’s really delicious! Recommend #Adai Ginger Duck. Locals eat here. The master who massaged our feet and friends from Xiamen University all recommend this. You must eat it when you go to Xiamen. There are many branches. The one I ate is near Zhongshan Road. Pay attention to the business hours. They all close at 20:00 and there is no midnight snack. I personally think the most worthwhile attraction in Xiamen is the #Overseas Chinese Museum built by the overseas Chinese #Chen Jiageng in Xiamen. It is very large. In addition to introducing the history of the development of Chinese overseas, it also exhibits Chen Jiageng's own collections. It takes at least 3 hours to walk out of it. My feet are so sore😆 📍Address: No. 493 Siming South Road, Siming District, Xiamen City #Gulangyu is a must-see attraction in Xiamen. Foreign tourists have to go to the Dongdu Boat Wharf to buy a 20 RMB round-trip ticket. When I went there, I went to the wrong wharf. I went to the first wharf used by Xiamen residents, which only sold 80 RMB tourist tickets to Gulangyu. So I had to spend a few yuan to take a boat to Songyu, and then transfer from Songyu Wharf to Gulangyu. It cost a little more money and time, but there was an auntie selling straw hats and sunglasses at Songyu Wharf, who gave a very affordable price (I don’t know where to find sunglasses for 10 RMB), so this short stay was still worth it. I highly recommend the bar in Xiamen at night #Remeroof It is on the fourth floor of the ferry terminal for the night cruise on Lujiang River. You can't see anything downstairs, you have to go upstairs to feel the vibe. Please be sure to go to the fourth floor to have a look! 📍Address: No. 2, D2, 4th Floor, No. 3 Lujiang Road, Siming District, Xiamen I accidentally said too much~ If you want to know my more detailed itinerary, you can leave a message and I will share the itinerary with you👍

Gulangyu Island is a 5A-level attraction and is a must-visit attraction when visiting Xiamen. It is best to buy boat tickets in advance, otherwise you have to buy them in person at the pier that day. The price of the boat ticket includes a round trip. The boat ride from Dongdu Passenger Terminal to San Qiu Tin Pier in Gu Lang Yu is about 25 minutes. The boat speed is relatively slow because it provides broadcast tour explanations while enjoying the sea view. It is recommended to find a seat near the boat where you can enjoy the sea view. If you want a seat, go early and wait in line to board the boat. There are several visiting spots on Gulangyu Island, such as: Shuzhuang Garden, Sunlight Rock, Haoyue Garden, International Engraving Museum We chose to visit Xiamen Underwater World and Shuzhuang Garden. In addition to visiting attractions, the island also has souvenir shops, restaurants, ancient buildings, and hotels to stay. If necessary, you can stay for a few more days before returning. There is no public transportation on the island, so expect to have good foot strength! Wear comfortable shoes and remember to replenish water! More especially on the island ate the Gulangyu limited edition flavor of ice cream, is Xiamen Shacha Soup and Wuyishan Dahongpao flavor, good 😋 The island is surrounded by the sea, the scenery is beautiful, you can see the sunset. So when you go to Xiamen, you must visit Gulangyu Island! #Xiamen #Xiamen Gulangyu Island #Gulangyu #Xiamen Underwater World #Shuzhuang Garden #XiamenTravel #XiamenTravel #Xiamen characteristics #Xiamen City #Xiamen must check-in #China Travel Strategy #China's Good Places #China's Food, Shop and Play #July Post Message Event 2025 #July Good Places 2025 #Register tripbest July sleeper tester

1️⃣ Xiamen Free Travel – Enjoying at Your Own Pace ✔️ Pros You can plan your itinerary, routes, and dining spots as you wish. Relax and explore emotional spots like Gulangyu Island, Zhongshan Road, and the beach. Discover local restaurants and cafes (must-try: Shacha noodles, seafood stew, mango smoothie). Enjoy Gulangyu’s night views, cafes, and alleys at your own speed. Take your time for photos and vlogs. ✔️ Cons While Chinese language skills are not mandatory, you’ll need to use apps or translators to some extent. Booking ferries, navigating transportation, and searching for restaurants can be cumbersome. During peak seasons (e.g., Chinese holidays), expect waiting times and crowds. Traveling and transferring can be slightly tiring for novice travelers. Recommended for: Those with prior experience traveling to China. People who want to enjoy a slow-paced itinerary focused on photography, dining, and emotional experiences. Travelers who prefer local vibes and flexible schedules. ⸻ 2️⃣ Xiamen Package Tours – Prioritizing Comfort & Efficiency ✔️ Pros Ferries, entrance tickets, meals, and transportation are all included, reducing stress. Quickly visit key attractions like Gulangyu Island, Underwater World, and Shuzheng Garden. No need to know Chinese as the guide handles everything. Pre-planned schedules are ideal for short trips, traveling with parents, or first-time travelers. ✔️ Cons Minimal free time, making it hard to explore emotional cafes and alleys. Group travel with time restrictions limits the chance to explore local dining spots. Shopping for souvenirs and meals may be standardized for tourists. Limited time for photos and vlogs. Recommended for: First-time travelers to China or those worried about language and transportation. Family trips, especially with parents. Busy individuals who want to quickly cover key attractions.

1️⃣ Abalone Seafood Butter Steamed Dish ✔️ Xiamen, being a coastal city, boasts high-quality seafood. This dish, which is gaining popularity, features abalone, shrimp, clams, and more, steamed with a rich butter and garlic sauce. Fresh seafood like abalone, conch, prawns, and mussels are generously included, creating a perfect combination of buttery aroma and the umami of seafood. Some restaurants even allow you to select your seafood directly from tanks by the sea. Recommended setting: Order at a seaside restaurant with a view or a local seafood specialty restaurant. ⸻ 2️⃣ Shacha Noodles (沙茶面) ✔️ A signature local noodle dish of Xiamen! The 'Shacha sauce' is a peanut and seafood-based sauce that is savory with a hint of spiciness, and it’s highly addictive for first-timers. You can customize the dish by adding seafood, meat, or offal as desired. The unique flavor of peanut sauce combined with Shacha spices is unforgettable. Available in both soupy and dry noodle styles. Pro tip: Try it at a popular local eatery or a hidden gem in the alleys of Gulangyu. ⸻ 3️⃣ Dim Sum (点心) ✔️ Xiamen-style dim sum blends Cantonese and Fujian influences. Traditional dim sum like shrimp dumplings (Har Gow), Shaomai, and Char Siu Bao are widely available, along with seafood-infused variations unique to Xiamen. Many dim sum cafes offer a cozy brunch vibe. Pro tip: Check out dim sum courses near Zhongshan Road or at hotel lounges. ⸻ 4️⃣ Mango Smoothies & Tropical Fruit Desserts ✔️ Being in the southern region, Xiamen excels in fresh fruit desserts. Mango smoothies packed with fresh mango, along with tropical desserts featuring coconut, dragon fruit, and passion fruit, are a must-try. Popular at cafes in Gulangyu or open-air spots near the beach. Pro tip: Enjoy these refreshing treats at a beachside café in Gulangyu during the day.

Help! Xiamen's "Wanghai" is explosively romantic! Heart-shaped stairs + sunset concerts, perfect for capturing stunning photos! I discovered a place called "Wanghai" in Xiamen, and it's unbelievably romantic! It's truly a dating paradise. The moment you arrive, you'll be amazed by its beauty, and you'll find yourself taking so many photos that your fingers might get sore! This spot offers views of the sea, sunsets, evening glow, the Twin Towers, and even live music performances and a café. The staff there confirmed that you can enjoy all of this in one place—it's like stepping into a postcard! They serve afternoon tea, Western cuisine, pasta, and drinks, so you can sit back and enjoy a leisurely time. The highlight is their "Sunset Mountain-Sea Concert," which happens every evening at sunset, starting at 5:30 PM. There's music, bubble machines, and cold fireworks, creating an incredible atmosphere! I recommend the best times to visit: - Around 4 PM: The sunlight isn't too harsh, perfect for capturing blue skies and white clouds while waiting for the sunset. - Around 5:30 PM: Slightly later, but it might be hard to find the perfect spot. However, sunsets are meant to be enjoyed together. - Around 6:30 PM: Ideal for this season to catch the sunset and the blue hour, which is breathtaking. Plus, there's the concert, though you might need to queue. ‼️ Make sure to visit on a day with good weather, preferably when the skies are clear during the day or when there's a sunset in the evening for the best experience! Recommended photo spots: - Heart-shaped stairs, super photogenic. - Extra-long heart-shaped crosswalk, very unique. - Spring seaside cottage (newly opened). - Monet Garden (newly opened). - Sunset glow combined with the concert, very storytelling. - "Xiamen" wall, a must-visit for photos. For transportation, you can take a taxi directly to the bottom of the stairs. Make sure to tell the driver "ONLY ONE Wanghai Café"! After getting off, you'll need to climb a small slope and many heart-shaped stairs, so be careful if you're wearing high heels. If you're taking the bus, routes 29 and 47 will get you to "Zengshan Station," but you'll need to walk about 10 minutes and climb a steep slope, which can be tiring! For outfits, I recommend light or bright colors, and wearing a cute dress will make your photos even more stunning. Address: No. 21, Tianquan Road, Zengshan, Siming District, Xiamen City. Opening hours: 9:00 AM to midnight. Parking is available at the entrance, but it's first-come, first-served. When I visited, it was quite crowded, but the atmosphere was great. The music was enjoyable, and you could see the Twin Towers across the way. It's definitely worth checking out!

On April 26 and 27, 2025, I traveled from Tokyo Narita to Xi'an using Xiamen Airlines' business class 🧳. The journey was surprisingly smooth and comfortable, including a hotel stay during the transit, making it a highly satisfying flight experience 💙. 🛩 First Leg: Narita → Xiamen (MF816 / B787-9 "United Dream") The flight from Narita featured Xiamen Airlines' signature aircraft, the B787-9 "United Dream" ✨. The seats were fully flat, and the cabin was clean and comfortable. For the in-flight meal, I chose "stir-fried rice noodles," which had a light flavor and was delicious 😋. 🛋 Narita Airport Lounge Before departure, I used the Premier Lounge. While the environment was decent, the food and drinks were quite average 🍷🍪. It served well as a quiet waiting area. 🏨 Transit in Xiamen (1-night stay included) Business class passengers were provided accommodation at the Jinyan Hotel. The spacious rooms, airport transfers, and smooth check-in process were impressive 🚗. In the evening, I strolled around the Siming Road area, enjoying the local atmosphere briefly 🌆. 🍱 Breakfast on the Next Morning (In-flight) For the second leg of the flight (MF8217 Xiamen → Xi'an), I opted for the spare ribs and abalone lunch set. It was truly delicious, with perfectly balanced flavors 🐖✨. 🌿 Morning Walk Before Departure After breakfast, I took a light stroll around **Yundang Lake**, located behind the hotel. The air was fresh, and the morning light reflecting on the lake was delightful 🌞. 🛬 Second Leg: Xiamen → Xi'an (B737-800) The final flight was on a slightly older B738. Unfortunately, the seat monitor's audio couldn't be turned off, which was a bit noisy 💦. However, the flight itself was stable, and I arrived without any issues. ✅ Overall Summary Xiamen Airlines' business class offers an excellent balance of service, price, and comfort! The transit hotel was high-quality, and I could enjoy the journey even during the layover ✈️. It's now one of the airlines I'd love to use again 🫶.

Summer is approaching, perfect for a getaway. For a Xiamen vacation, the Island Ring Road is naturally the top choice. · During this Island Ring Road trip, I unexpectedly discovered a Southern French-inspired luxury hideaway—3W House, which was truly an amazing surprise. · The pure white standalone garden villa at the foot of Tatou Mountain is incredibly serene. The design is absolutely stunning! Outdoors on the first floor, there's a swimming pool and garden, exuding French garden vacation vibes. Indoors, you'll find a high-ceilinged living room, dining area, and kitchen, all meticulously decorated— fresh, stylish, and super photogenic! · The rooms are absolutely a dream for girls, with massive space! Floor-to-ceiling windows and a huge bathtub! Also incredibly Instagram-worthy! · Whether you're staying in for a cozy retreat or heading to the beach, it's super convenient. For those visiting Xiamen or locals looking for a relaxing getaway, this place is a must-try! · 📍3W House: No. 164, Tatou, Siming District

📍Itinerary Overview 🚩Travel Routes 🏖️Must-Visit Attractions 🚇Transportation Since it’s a rare vacation, I didn’t want to walk much, so I mostly took taxis. 📷Photo Spots Most of my photos were taken at the beach. Huangli Beach is particularly photogenic! 🍜Local Delicacies Shacha noodles are amazing! We also tried Guizhou cuisine, local dishes, and couldn’t resist having Korean and Western food as well. Everything was pretty good, and there were no disappointments overall. 🏠Accommodation Recommendation 1. Xiamen Shanhe Story Designer Full Sea View Resort Hotel 💡Tips: The hotel is a bit far, located on Zengcuoan Mountain. Walking there might be too much, so we mostly took taxis. We booked a sea-view room, which was spacious and had a bathtub—pretty nice overall.

| Xiamen Baqi Courtyard by Marriott Hotel. Located on the Island Ring Road next to Gaoqi Airport on the main island, with Jimei Bridge nearby. 🏨 Opened in 2020, it served as a quarantine hotel for several years during the pandemic, so I only stayed there for one night this year. About a 10-minute taxi ride from the airport, but the surrounding area is quite desolate. Suitable for layovers or staycations, even food delivery is difficult to order. 🛋️ For my first stay, I was upgraded to an Executive Ocean View Suite, 82 square meters. The view is absolutely amazing, better than Thailand. Rumored to be the best Courtyard property in China, and with prices usually around 500+ yuan, it's definitely a great value!

If you haven't seen the sea in Xiamen, I'm going to cry 😭 It's so beautiful! Before the trip, I was dazzled by all the hotels, but luckily I didn't make a bad choice. Xiamen isn't just Gulangyu. This seaside #EASEL Hotel is like a private garden by the sea. I have to say, the sea and the oasis are a perfect match 🍃 I checked in at 6pm and saw the sunset as soon as I opened the door 🌅 The hot stone lounger is very comfortable!!! - 🏨 EASEL Hotel Xiamen 🌟 Located at No. 277, Bincheng Road, Huli District, next to Wuyuan Bay Yacht Marina. Turn right out of the hotel and go straight along Bincheng Road, then pass under the Wuyuan Bay Bridge to reach the Wetland Park. ✈️ 15-minute drive from Gaoqi Airport, Xiamen Station 🚗 Within 20 minutes, you can reach Island Ring Road and Gulangyu Pier

A Stay at the Waldorf Astoria Xiamen: An In-Depth Look at Urban Luxury I recently stayed at the Waldorf Astoria Xiamen and had a rich and unique experience. Here, I'd like to share my personal and subjective feelings. 💴Average Spend: I booked a Deluxe Guest Room with a view for nearly CNY 2,000 a night, which is mid-to-high-end. Combining the hotel's location, service, and facilities, it offers good value for those who seek a high-quality stay and are less price-sensitive. However, it may be expensive for travelers on a budget. 🛏️Amenities/Facilities: - Location and Surroundings: The hotel is located in Siming District, which is an excellent location. It is more centrally located than the Andaz and Seven Villa, making it easy to get around. There is a small path downstairs leading to Lotus Park. Along the way, you can not only enjoy the scenery, but also taste Xiamen's famous Lotus Fried Crab. The ginger duck in the restaurant is also delicious. There are also several cute and beautiful coffee shops along the way. - Room Amenities: The check-in process at the front desk around 3 PM was very smooth. The mini bar in the room is completely free. However, the room did not provide welcome fruit, bedtime chocolates, or eye masks. The hair dryer was not a Dyson, but an old-fashioned one. The bedding was excellent. Although I could hear a whooshing sound like a strong wind at night, both day and night, it did not affect my sleep much. - Leisure Facilities: The gym is open 24 hours. After 10 PM, you can swipe your card to enter. It is fully equipped, even with medicine balls that many five-star hotels do not have. 🏠Room Type/Layout: The Deluxe Guest Room with a view that I booked has a reasonable layout and clear functional zoning, which can meet a variety of needs for rest and leisure. The overall design is luxurious and sophisticated. 🧹Soundproofing/Hygiene: The overall hygiene of the room was good, clean and tidy. Although there were some strange noises in terms of soundproofing, they did not affect the quality of sleep. 💗Other tips: - Dining Experience: The breakfast selection is average, including the usual items found in other five-star hotels, but the satay noodles were not authentic. However, the restaurant environment is very suitable for taking pictures. - Service Experience: When I called to ask for a mobile phone charger and sanitary napkins, the staff were able to deliver them quickly, and the service response was prompt. - Photo Experience: The hotel's decor is luxurious and sophisticated, making it very photogenic. You can take beautiful photos no matter what style of clothing you wear. - Overall Evaluation: This hotel is worth staying at least once. Whether it is the location advantage, the unique decoration style, or the complete leisure facilities, there are many highlights. During my stay, it happened to be Jolin Tsai's concert, and the lobby was full of fans discussing the concert, creating a lively atmosphere.
