About transportation 1. Train.
There are two train stations in Xiamen, one is Xiamen Station and the other is Xiamen North Railway Station. The North Railway Station is located outside the island in Jimei. You can take BRT or bus to the city. Taxis are very expensive, so don’t take a taxi!

2. Airport.
What you need to pay more attention to at Xiamen Gaoqi Airport is the taxi. The ferry from the airport is about 45 yuan, so don’t be ripped off. 3. If you are traveling by car, the car is parked in the ferry underground garage, the price is 4 yuan per hour, but the cap is 30 yuan per day.
4. Public transportation.
When coming to Xiamen, it is recommended to download a mobile bus app, which is very convenient for checking buses.
Xiamen buses generally cost 1 yuan within the island, and you need to pay an additional yuan for crossing the bridge (from within the island to outside the island). There are double-decker buses in Xiamen, which are suitable for those who want to experience the scenery of Xiamen. There are also some buses that are all on the same route and are good attractions.
For example, bus No. 29 (for a guide on bus No. 29, you can check out VX Everyone Happy Travel), which is easier and more convenient.
BRT is a rapid transit bus with its own dedicated air driving road, so there will be no traffic jams. However, it is recommended to stagger the commute during peak hours as it is very crowded.
Metro, Xiamen Metro currently only has one line, Line 1, which runs from Zhenhai Road Station on the island to Yanai Station outside the island. Interested partners can also eat delicious food and enjoy the scenery along Line 1. For specific strategies, you can see the people

5. Cycling.
Xiamen's exclusive bicycles can be seen everywhere, and there are also sky bicycle lanes. Riding a bicycle on Huandao Road and enjoying the sea breeze is the most pleasant thing.
Regarding accommodation 1. B&Bs, it is highly recommended to stay in special B&Bs in Xiamen. B&Bs are concentrated near Gulangyu Island, Huandao Road, Huaxin Road, Zengcuo'an, Huangcuo and Xiamen University.
You must book a B&B on the official website, read the comments, and don’t be fooled by the pictures. (Although the B&B on Gulangyu Island is expensive, I personally think that the scenery of Gulangyu Island is better at night than during the day. It is still quite good to stay on the island for one night.
Not bad, I recommend Lucca International Youth Hostel Gallery Hotel) 2. Express hotel, if the budget is not that high, staying in an express hotel is also a good choice. It will be more convenient to live in Zhongshan Street, near the train station 3. If you want to live
For a more comfortable stay, it is recommended to stay in an apartment-style hotel. These are generally very high-end single apartments with large rooms, large beds, private bathrooms, and you can cook your own meals. They are similar to your own home. There are many online, so you can look for them.
