The natural environment and human environment here are closely and harmoniously integrated, and a perfect characteristic space is constructed, which attracts tourists' attention. Here, we will provide you with an ultra-detailed collection of scenic spots in Xiamen.
Xiamen pit prevention guide
I put this in the front because many friends have been cheated. Peanut wrote this strategy before, but the location was not good enough, and some friends failed to notice it for the first time. Now, I will focus on several techniques. You can remember them with some thoughts, and observe that many people cheat, most of them come from enthusiastic drivers. Common routines are as follows:
1. This kind of drivers basically appear in airports and railway stations; Main attractions: Gulangyu Wharf in Zengcuo Village, Xiamen University, etc. ~ It's for tourists. They will attract guests to believe that they will get on their bus if they can reach any scenic spot for 1 yuan.
2. I am very enthusiastic to approach you, understand your itinerary, and introduce you to the major scenic spots in Xiamen.
3. When you don't have a trip, he will start recommending you a one-day trip to Kinmen, the Dolphin Cross-Harbour Tunnel and Gulangyu Island.
wait, I am very enthusiastic and serious to tell you that you must go to these places in Xiamen, or you will come for nothing.
4. When you tell me that you have itinerary, such as going to Gulangyu, he will ask if you have bought a ticket, and then tell you: It's too late now, and there is traffic jam; I wonder if the fire drill over there can't get through? Even if you go, you can't get there. Then, when you start to feel depressed, go back to 3 and introduce yourself to others. For example, if you go to the botanical garden, you may be told that the botanical garden is for the elderly and no one goes; It rained a few days ago, and the botanical garden was damaged. It was closed and closed, so there are countless reasons for you to cancel the original trip.
5. Combine 3 and 4, and finally you get on his car and go back to 2. All kinds of recommendations are generally to drive to a very cheap travel agency to sign a one-day tour, and then take it to a remote place to buy things (you will be told that it is cheap and authentic, such as smuggling). Eat seafood and other special foods.
Here, Peanut reminds everyone that if you can take a taxi near the scenic spot, don't listen to him when you can't take a taxi. For example, if he tells you that you can't go to the Botanical Garden, you can tell your friends in Xiamen to meet there.
There is another kind of people, who are distributed on the beach around the island, dressed in Mickey Mouse costumes, and begin to take photos with you enthusiastically. When you are finished, they will ask you for money, so go away.
and don't pick up the flowers and toys in your aunt's hand near the ferry pier and Zhongshan Road. Even if she says it's for you, there are friends who don't want it. I can't stand the hard work of my aunt. After eating, they will follow you for money. It's really uncomfortable.
If you encounter other routines, you can tell Peanut in the comment area, and I will update them at any time to avoid other guests being deceived.
Route making
Before making the itinerary, let's know the geographical location of Xiamen. First of all, Xiamen has two train stations and an airport, which is located on the island. Therefore, Peanut suggested that if you fly, you can take a taxi to your hotel, and you can reach Zhongshan Road or Zengcuo Village in about 3 minutes. If you take the bullet train and get off at North Station, you can have three choices. First, I think taking the subway directly to Zhongshan Road is the best choice at present. Second, take the brt bus. Soon, the third one is to take a taxi or drip. For tourists who are late at night or have a lot of luggage, I think it is more convenient to take a taxi. If it's at Xiamen Station, just take a taxi. On the island, it is very convenient. The tourist season in Xiamen is winter and summer vacation, and various holidays. The best experience time is from March to May. There are not many people, the weather is not hot, and the key spring is also very good.

? Gulangyu/Gulangyu
How to get tickets for Gulangyu is a headache for every friend who comes to Xiamen. The following is a detailed introduction of peanuts:
Visitors can purchase tickets 15 days in advance (excluding the day) through the website of the ferry company (www.xmferry.com data-KW = www.xmferry.com), and they must book in advance in the peak season, otherwise they will not be able to get to the island, and they can buy them within 15 days. Don't go to the scalpers, they will rob them, too. You can't buy them, and neither can they. ) or purchase tickets 15 days in advance through the official WeChat official account (Xiamen Ferry Co., Ltd.) (official website sells tickets earlier than WeChat, but WeChat can purchase tickets more than one hour before sailing on the same day), or purchase tickets at the manual window or self-service machine on the same day with valid documents. Official website service hours are 5:-23:, and WeChat ticketing service hours are 7:-23:.
I used my second-generation ID card to buy tickets. Visitors who can't provide ID cards can also use household registration book (only for minors under 16 years old), temporary id card, military officer's card, soldier's card, police officer's card, people's police card, passport, medical certificate of birth of babies under 2 years old, foreigner's residence permit, diplomatic card, Hong Kong and Macao residents' travel permit to and from the mainland, mainland travel permit for taiwan residents, foreign seaman's card, etc. You can use the second-generation ID card to purchase tickets online, and you don't need to pick up the tickets, but you can use the ID card directly for the transition. If you are not a second-generation ID card, you need to bring the original ID card to the window to print the boarding pass (which should be consistent with the documents used when purchasing tickets online).
when you go, the ticket is valid on duty, and skipping class will be invalid. Passengers can return with their ticket documents and tickets within 2 days.
Detailed explanation of various flights in Gulangyu Island:
Many tourists spit after coming to Gulangyu Island. Gulangyu Island is really nothing interesting. Of course, different people have different views on the feeling of traveling. Peanut thinks Gulangyu is not suitable for joining a group or punching in. Better calm down. The wall is cracked and it is recommended to stay on the island for one night. As summer is the peak tourist season, if you choose to return to Xiamen Island sooner or later, it will be a waste of time, and sometimes you have to queue for a long time. Generally, I suggest going to the island at night. You can go from the ferry pier to the sanqiutian pier. There are not many people. When you return to Xiamen, you should try to arrive at the ferry terminal from 7: to 8: . Save a lot of time and don't have to wait in line. The most important thing is that Gulangyu Island at this time is the most charming place in the morning and evening, with insects singing and birds singing, and there are not so many tourists. It's really suitable for wandering around the island.
There are many roads in Gulangyu, so I usually take quiet paths and visit some landmark places. Relatively few people. On these low-key paths, you can stay in the sea of bougainvillea and play around Gulangyu Island, an old thing in southern Fujian, which is known as the architectural style of all countries. From the perspective of God, it is still very shocking.
? Accommodation in Gulangyu: Yangtaoyuan (Fuxing Castle Store)
Address: No.13 Fuxing Road, Gulangyu, Siming District, Xiamen City, Fujian Province
Peanut said before that it is best to stay in Gulangyu for one night, because you can see the tranquility of Gulangyu in the morning and get away from the hustle and bustle of the city at night. So choosing a hotel with Gulangyu characteristics is an important thing for you to travel to Gulangyu.
Carambola Yard has three stores in Gulangyu, including homestays and cafes. This time, we experienced Fuxing Castle Store. From the pier to Fuxing Road, it is a secluded place. The crowd gradually dispersed and there were birds singing all the time. First of all, we saw sparrows dancing among the fallen leaves on the ground, looking up at the majestic green. A century-old longan tree covered the mottled figure of the castle.
The whole hotel adopts the distinctive theme of ship wood and driftwood, and the design is all original. The style of carambola yard is to improve the facilities in the room on the basis of the original old house, so as to retain the charm of the old house to the greatest extent and let residents enjoy a quality housing experience.
The appearance of the house is the unique architectural style of Gulangyu Island, and it is well preserved.
This time, Tu Tu lives in a duplex room. There is a small hall at the bottom that feels like tatami, and there is a small desk lamp next to it to fill the light and take pictures.
the second floor is a big room. There are separate bathrooms on the first and second floors, and the overall decoration is full of retro literature and art.
It is worth mentioning that there is a leisure place behind the house, called Houshan, where you can make tea and chat.
and exquisite breakfast service.
? Gourmet in Gulangyu: China Red Ink Coffee Bar in Carambola Yard
Address: No.3 Zhonghua Road, Gulangyu, Siming District, Xiamen
Hongdian is also a lodging and coffee bar. We walked here in the afternoon and were attracted by this. Many people come to Gulangyu just to see these buildings with a sense of time. What if they can live in them? Think about it. Isn't it tempting? Besides, it is very hot in summer. You can also order some afternoon tea in the store to relax.
The whole coffee bar is very emotional, and all kinds of old-fashioned tables and chairs make people fantasize about that era.
I ordered milk tea with silk stockings, Mu Si cake and toast.
mousse cake: You can drool just by looking at pictures. The cream in the mouth is delicious or not.
The reason why silk stockings are called silk stockings milk tea has nothing to do with silk stockings. The stockings you see in the picture are actually just a thin white cotton tea bag, which is a special tool for filtering milk tea. Silk stockings milk tea has a delicate taste and a tea fragrance.
Toast is French toast, which is a typical Hong Kong-style western snack. Spread peanut butter or jam between two pieces of white bread, fold it into a sandwich shape, then immerse it in the egg liquid, then put it in a frying pan and fry it until golden brown, crisp outside and tender inside. With stockings and milk tea, it is full of authentic Hong Kong-style refreshments. Honey can also be coated on the surface according to personal preference before eating.
all kinds of small ornaments in the store are also very particular, and each one has a sense of time. In such a house, the reverie of crossing is generated in minutes.
? Gulangyu Cuisine: Regenerated Sea Canteen
Address: No.9, Gu Xin Road, Siming District, Xiamen
This is a very petty-bourgeois restaurant. The ingredients are all seafood, and the taste is light. The old waiters here are all aunts, very kind and considerate. Just near Longtou Road in Gulangyu Island, there is a big sign at the door, and there is a small courtyard inside, which looks like an old house in an ancient house. Very delicious. There are many green plants in the restaurant, which are simple, warm and unique.
There are also several outdoor seats, which are suitable for sitting in fine weather.
The furniture in the store has a sense of design. The raw materials are driftwood and ship wood, just like the sea itself. The whole environment is very special, quiet and literary, which makes people feel very warm and comfortable.
Ma Fish Soup: A seemingly ordinary soup can also be made clear and transparent, and you can taste the sea with a bite. Its taste is delicate and light, and the fish is soft, waxy, tender and chewy.
Seafood Satay Noodles: Compared with traditional Satay Noodles, it tastes more like curry
? Zengcuo _ village, where people live all the year round, used to be just a small fishing village. For friends who come to Xiamen for the first time, they still like to have fun here. There are many snacks, but they are not the special snacks in Xiamen. There are many kinds of literary shops, but you can also find the same one on Zhongshan Road in Gulangyu. Whether it is day or night, it is very lively I suggest you come here again at night. There are many kinds of shops, such as seafood, Satay Noodles, fried oysters and so on. It's unsanitary to be exposed to the sun in the stall, and it's also the location of 6% homestays in Xiamen, which is very selective.
? Zengcuo _ Village Cuisine: Class 2, three years
Address: 2nd floor, No.9, Zengcuo _ Village Society
Zengcuo _ Village is an interesting restaurant, where you can instantly feel your childhood memories. In the 198s, the table was used at the dining table. The waiter called the teacher, the guest called the classmate, the boss called the principal, and the order was called the test paper, paying the bill and paying the tuition. Of course, there are various Xiamen specialties here.
various awards, national flags, blackboards, transcripts, posters, etc. With a sense of time, it seems that I really crossed back to primary school.
I'm ready, waiting for the teacher to start class.
pickled fish is made of grass carp, pickles and other ingredients. It tastes sour and spicy. Fish is rich in high-quality protein, which can provide people with rich nutrition such as protein and minerals. Lactic acid in sauerkraut can promote the absorption of iron and increase people's appetite.
the method of frying crabs is relatively simple. Cut the whole crab in half, add salt, wine and other condiments, put them in the oil pan, fry them slowly until the crab shell turns red, and then take them out of the pan. The crab shell is shiny, the crab shell is bright red, and the crab meat is delicious, which makes your index finger move.
boiled three delicacies: the main ingredients are shrimp, squid, mussels and so on. This practice retains the flavor of seafood to the greatest extent, and at the same time stimulates the taste buds with spicy taste, which is very suitable for those friends with heavy mouths.
Boiled prawns. This dish is very demanding for prawns. Good prawns taste sweet and chewy, and keep the original flavor of prawns. Children's shoes that like seafood can try.
take a group photo after dinner.
? Zhongshan Road
Zhongshan Road is worth visiting. The alley next to it preserves the appearance of Xiamen since ancient times. Remember one direction and you will get to the main road. The roads are bustling and the alleys are leisurely, each with its own beauty. Every street and arcade here bears the imprint of ancient Xiamen. Those who like the architectural style of the Republic of China can go, and there are many local snacks in Xiamen. Remember to visit the old streets more.
? Zhongshan Cuisine: Cattle Point
Address: Floor 1, Chinatown, No.258, Zhongshan Road, Siming District, Xiamen
Cattle Point is surprisingly popular in Xiamen, which is near a good business district in Xiamen. I happened to pass by here when I was visiting Zhongshan Road today. In summer, I really had no resistance to iced drinks, so I went into the store and ordered two cups and had a rest.
It's just that their store has recently launched new products, all of which are mango series. We ordered the Golden Mang Lotto and the Golden Mang Tour.
mango lotto: tropical coconut and fresh mango bring warm island customs. This is a golden combination. In midsummer, all kinds of fresh meat are standard, full of layers and a cup of blood.
excellent mango: mango and fruit tea are sweet and fresh, full of bold and unrestrained summer breath. Together with rich yogurt, they are smooth and mellow, and combine unique sweet and sour taste to produce exclusive summer enthusiasm and vitality.
? Zhongshan cuisine: the fairy grass of Besnon
Address: the right side of the entrance on the first floor of Tiger City, Zhongshan Road, Siming District, Xiamen
There are three reasons for recommending this store: 1. The location is very convenient, just at the gate of Tiger City on Zhongshan Road. For those tired of shopping, this
