Steamed buns who want to go to Xiamen recently must go to these places! ! As I have just returned from Xiamen, I really suggest you go and have a look. As we all know, Xiamen is a city full of cultural characteristics, and these places can just show Xiamen's unique characteristics. They are:
Zhongshan Road Walking Street
Gulangyu/Gulangyu
Jimei school village
Zhongshan Road Pedestrian Street 1
This is an old street full of overseas Chinese culture!
Zhongshan Road Pedestrian Street is a commercial street with a long history in Xiamen. Known as "Top Ten Streets in China" and "The First Street in the South". Xiamen is an old city with a relatively complete exhibition of modern history, with many cultural relics such as Ma Xiao Road, Chen Huacheng's former residence, the First Temple of China and so on!
There are many snacks on this road, such as Beth Peanut Soup, Yuehua Satay Noodles, A Qing Spring Roll, Yueming Shrimp Noodles and so on. , especially Yueming shrimp noodles, are really super delicious! ! Eat it all!
Street view of Zhongshan Road Pedestrian Street
The buildings here are arcades, with pink and milky white as the main colors, with a strong Nanyang style, and various snacks with Fujian and Taiwan characteristics are also a major feature of Zhongshan Road Pedestrian Street. Nanyang's arcade buildings, colorful LED night scenes, various snacks with Fujian and Taiwan characteristics and the echo of ancient Nanyin in alleys and blocks constitute its distinctive style characteristics.
When it comes to Nanyang, we have to mention three great population migrations in modern China, that is, crossing the Kanto, moving westward and going south to Nanyang. Among them, Lower Nanyang is even more special, because it needs to cross the ocean and work hard in a completely strange overseas. From the late Ming Dynasty to the late Qing Dynasty, the situation was turbulent and the people struggled. Many ordinary people go to Nanyang again and again to make a living. During the 90 years from 1840 to 1930, Fujian and Guangdong exported more than 654.38 million refugees each year, which also brought a strong overseas Chinese culture to Xiamen.
Xia Nanyang
Personally recommended walking route: Lujiang Road-Yong 'antang Bell Tower-Weizhentang-Chen Huacheng's former residence-Xinjie Chapel-former site of anti-enemy support associations from all walks of life. On this route, when you see Chen Huacheng's former residence, you will think of him leading the army to fight against the invading British ships, fighting alone and dying in the line of duty. You can see the Yong 'antang Bell Tower, the tallest building on Zhongshan Road. You can also see that although it has not witnessed its past, it has a history of more than 90 years and still exudes a strong aftertaste of the Republic of China.
? Address: 30 meters southeast of No.54 Lujiang Road, Xiamen, Fujian.
2.Gulangyu Island
This small island with an area of less than two square kilometers is the place with the largest number of pianos in China. It is called "Piano Island" and also called "the gathering place of international architecture" because it has many different styles of modern architecture.
Gulangyu/Gulangyu
Speaking of the development and formation of Gulangyu Island, it has probably gone through three stages: the precipitation period of local culture, the spread period of foreign culture and the multi-cultural integration period. During the period of multicultural integration, from 1903 to 194 1 when the Pacific War broke out, Gulangyu became a "paradise" in southern Fujian in the early 20th century. Chinese overseas Chinese gradually replaced westerners as the leading force in Gulangyu's social life and urban construction, and also formed a rich overseas Chinese culture.
Integration of Chinese and Western Cultures in Gulangyu Island
You must go to Hao Yueyuan to go to Gulangyu! Tickets are super cheap, per capita 10 yuan, which is really hard for people not to love. The most famous statue is Zheng Chenggong, just like the patron saint of Xiamen people!
Personally recommended walking route: Sanqiutian Wharf → the most beautiful corner → Bagua Building → Piano Museum → Xinzhuang Garden → Hao Yue Garden → Gulangyu Longtou Road Commercial Street → Sanqiutian Wharf. You can feel the excitement he doesn't usually feel in the business street of Longtou Road in Gulangyu, and there are many delicious foods here, such as Sanwei Crisp House, European-style milk tea shops in Jiangsu and Zhang Sanfeng, all of which are super delicious.
? Address: Gulangyu Street, Siming District, Xiamen, Fujian, located in the southwest corner of Xiamen Peninsula.
3. Jimei Xue Cun
Jimei Xue Cun is an urban area that combines Minnan culture, Xue Cun culture and overseas Chinese culture. It is not an independent individual on the edge of the city, but a university city with a community model integrating education, work and life in the past 100 years. This is a beautiful place in the world, which shows its humanistic style and has become a major tourist attraction in jimei district.
Jimei school village
Jimei School Village is different from a simple university town, but consists of kindergartens, primary schools, middle schools, universities and other schools. In addition, there are the Dragon Boat Pond, the library, the auditorium, Chen Jiageng's former residence and the Olympic Garden.
Standing in front of the school, I can't even imagine how wonderful it is to study here!
Jimei high school
Personally recommended walking route: Jimei Xue Cun Subway Station-Haidi Road-Huaqiao University Chinese College-Jimei Xue Cun Loupai-Jimei University Navigation College-Chen Jiageng Former Residence-Swimming Pool-Aoyuan-Jiageng Park-Jimei University-Water Sports Center-Shigu Road. We can feel the charm of history and culture near Jimei University and visit some famous buildings.
Address: No.25 Jimei School Village, Shigu Road, jimei district, Xiamen, Fujian.
Summarize! The collision between Chinese and foreign cultures and local cultures is not only conquest and extinction. On the contrary, if we combine friendly and intelligent cultures, we will form a new culture, thus presenting a beautiful gathering of multi-cultures! The above is my recommended route with overseas Chinese culture. Welcome to add! !
