I live on Gulangyu Island. When you go to Gulangyu Island, I suggest you buy a pass for 80 yuan. You can visit Sunlight Rock, Aviary Garden, Haoyue Rock, Shuzhuang Garden, etc. Anyway, you have to visit these famous attractions in Gulangyu Island.

80 is a good deal.

(PS: If you only have Gulangyu Island on your schedule for the day, the ferry after 10 pm is free, because you don’t need to buy a ticket when you go to Gulangyu Island. You only buy it when you come back. The ticket price is 8 yuan per person. Don’t listen to this when taking the ferry from Xiamen to Gulangyu Island.

The person at the ticket window tells you to buy a ticket for 10 yuan, which is for going around the island. Oh, by the way, if you take the boat, you have to pay 1 yuan on the second floor.) The food on the island is definitely not the same as Sanyou.

It is a food city, but a small specialty shop. The most famous ones are the following: noodle paste (opposite the Longtou Road wet market, only bought in the morning, business is so good) followed by the fish balls on Longtou Road.

The snacks that tourists here always want to try, this restaurant is very famous.

The most unmissable thing is Ye’s Mochi, which is super delicious and passed down from ancestors.

As for lunch or dinner, you can eat seafood at a food stall. If you don't dare, you can eat McDonald's. Although they are available everywhere, the prices are clearly marked so you won't be cheated.

It’s better to be careful with some gears.

I went back to buy Huang Sheng Kee's meat floss (a small store opposite Yip's Mochi is only as big as an aisle, and many people often queue up to buy it). You can also buy Wang Kee pie, which is delicious and a great gift.

tasty.

If you want to go back to swimming, you can go swimming when the tide is high, but it costs 10 yuan to take a shower and 10 yuan to rent a swimming ring. It's a bit expensive, but it's not a tourist attraction.

It is recommended to spend a whole day on Gulangyu Island.

If you go to Xiamen, you can go to Huandao Road and the Botanical Garden. However, the Botanical Garden costs 60 yuan and is not recommended.

Just write about plants.

The Huandao Road is worth visiting because of its beautiful scenery. Xiamen University is right on the Huandao Road, and the sea is very beautiful along the road. The International Marathon is held on the Huandao Road.

Zhongshan Road is just across from the ferry from Xiamen to Gulangyu Island. There are many people on the pedestrian street. There are large shopping malls and many famous snacks. The most famous one is Huang Zehe. The peanut soup there is a must-order food.

.

There is also the duck porridge on Datong Road.

It’s better to go to Zhongshan at night. There are many dessert stations and specialty stalls.

I suggest that when you go to Xiamen, you can find a hotel near Zhongshan Road. The cheaper one is Chunguang Hotel, which is next to the customs. The more expensive one is Lujiang Hotel. It is recommended to stay at Lujiang Hotel, although it is more expensive, but you can see the sea view and Zhongshan Road.

night view.

The specific price is not very clear, you can check online.

When spring is more expensive, it's more than 200, it seems.

Then, we spent the whole day on Gulangyu Island on the second day, and Xiamen on the third day.

Two days in Xiamen is enough.

If you have any questions, please continue asking because I am from Xiamen and know Xiamen well.

I don't know if it helps you.
