In Xiamen, is there a city walking route that can let you know about the overseas Chinese culture in Xiamen?

Brother steamed stuffed bun who wants 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. It is known as "Top Ten Streets in China" and "The First Street in the South". It is an old city in Xiamen, with a relatively complete exhibition of modern history, and 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 Bess peanut soup, Yuehua Satie noodles, A Qing spring rolls, 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 strong Nanyang style, and various snacks with Fujian and Taiwan characteristics are also a major feature of Zhongshan Road Pedestrian Street. The arcade buildings in Nanyang, colorful LED night scenes, all kinds of snacks with Fujian and Taiwan characteristics and the echoes of ancient southern sounds in alleys and blocks constitute its distinctive style characteristics.

Speaking of Nanyang, I have to mention three great population migrations in modern China, namely, the Great Migration to the East, the Great Migration to the West and the Great Migration to Lower Nanyang. Among them, Lower Nanyang is more special, because it needs to travel across the ocean to 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 against invading British ships, fighting alone and dying in the line of duty. You can see the tallest building on Zhongshan Road in Yong 'antang Bell Tower. 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 has 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

When it comes to 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 integration period of multiculturalism. 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, and Chinese overseas Chinese gradually replaced westerners as the leading force in Gulangyu's social life and urban construction, which also formed a rich overseas Chinese culture.

Integration of Chinese and Western Cultures in Gulangyu Island

You must go to Hao Yue Park to go to Gulangyu Island! 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 usually doesn't feel in the business street of Longtou Road in Gulangyu. There are many delicious foods here, such as Sanwei Suwu, Su Xiaotang, Zhang Sanfeng European-style tea shop, etc., 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 town in a community model that has integrated education, work and life in a hundred years of development. It is a beautiful place in the world, showing its cultural features and becoming a major tourist attraction in jimei district.

Jimei school village

Jimei School Village is different from a pure 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 hiking route for overseas Chinese culture. Welcome to add! !
