The ticket check starts at 7:20, Shanghai is the departure station, so you don’t have to rush too much, and the luggage racks inside the bullet train are empty, so even tourists with suitcases don’t have to worry about having no place to put their suitcases.
It takes nearly 8 hours to take the D3131 from Shanghai to Xiamen North. The time is still quite long, and we need to find a way to pass the time on the train. The advantage of taking a high-speed train is that there is Internet throughout the whole journey, you can watch news and Moments; you can also download movies or variety shows in advance; if you sit by the window seat, you can also watch the scenery, let yourself go, and change your mood calm.
There were reports in the news before the Spring Festival about the issue of "high-speed rail boxed lunches". There are indeed boxed lunches on bullet trains and high-speed rails, but they are much more expensive than those in supermarkets, and the taste is mediocre. We bought 2 boxes of lunch on the way, 25 yuan a box, the taste of the food is average, and the amount is small, if you take a long-term train or high-speed train, it is recommended to prepare your own lunch before getting on the train.
After nearly 8 hours of travel, we finally arrived at Xiamen North Railway Station. After exiting the station, we walked to the right, about 200 meters away, and we arrived at the ticket office of the BRT bus at Xiamen North Railway Station. Most tourists buy "Xiamen North Railway Station" Station - the first pier" BRT ticket, so the number of people in line will be more. The BRT fare from Xiamen North Station to the First Wharf is 3.5 yuan, and the travel time is about 1 hour.
The BRT bus is different from the bus we usually take. It is more like the "subway" in Xiamen. When you enter the station, you swipe the ticket. When you get off, you need to put the ticket into the exit machine. Tourists should not lose it.
What is the model of BRT? There is really nothing special, just like the bus we usually take.
What is the BRT lane like? I can only say that it looks very comfortable, because there is no traffic jam, and the exit environment of each station is the same as that of the subway exit.
The location of Xiamen Leyunpeng Hotel is really great
Xiamen Leyunpeng Hotel. No. 35 Zhenbang Road
When traveling to Xiamen, staying on Zhongshan Road is a wise choice. Surrounded by eating, shopping, and bars. In the morning, you can also walk to the eight cities to experience the old Xiamen full of fireworks. I booked Leyunpeng B&B on Zhenbang Road near Zhongshan Road Pedestrian Street. It is so convenient!
The camera door with Internet celebrity style, the room is decorated with fresh ins style, very suitable for taking pictures.
Not only is the living environment in Xiamen more romantic, but the cuisine in Xiamen is also very attractive. There are countless delicacies on Zhongshan Road. Foodies are like mice falling into a rice bowl. Among the delicacies in Xiamen, Encounter Fujian cuisine is among the best in terms of word-of-mouth and popularity. Naturally, the number of tourists is also very large.
Wutang Fujian Cuisine Old Xiamen Specialty Dishes
According to this guide, Xiamen’s must-see seafood food stall [Wutang Fujian Cuisine Old Xiamen Specialty] is a time-honored restaurant in Xiamen. It is said that celebrities have patronized it, the environment is good, and the price is not expensive. As soon as you enter the store, you can see the seafood pool with all kinds of seafood. Stir-fried Boston lobster, freshly caught and cooked, fresh and plump.
Seafood rolls, crispy and delicious, with perfect taste!
Cold sandworms, the taste is amazing! Refreshing and sweet!
There is also local old-fashioned noodle paste. After eating a bowl, the whole person feels comfortable and warms the stomach. Such a satisfying meal~
About 2 years ago, there was a very famous Taiwanese food street in Xiamen, located on Renhe Road, Siming District, Xiamen. Even now, tourists who come to Xiamen will ask the locals about the exact location of the "Taiwan Food Street". The food street is no longer called that way, and the locals even said that "the original Taiwan food street has something wrong and has been banned", but this street still exists now, but the scale is not as big as it was then, when we come here When I first opened a food street, I didn't think it was small at all. Perhaps, the original Taiwanese food street was bigger. The food street is full of Xiamen delicacies, such as seafood barbecue, sea oysters, bamboo shoot jelly, fruit juice, etc. The taste of each store is different.
Soil bamboo shoot jelly is a snack with southern Fujian characteristics, but its raw material is difficult for many diners to accept. The main raw material is a kind of worm, which is also called "sand worm" in many places. Although it is a worm, it is very nutritious. I have eaten worms in Shenzhen before, and I like them very much, so I don’t have any resistance to bamboo shoot jelly, plus each store’s different sauces, the overall taste is very good, and the price is quite cheap. And small ones, 10 yuan can buy 6 small ones and 3 large ones.
You must try the freshly squeezed fruit juice in Xiamen. The fruits here are very fresh and full of water, especially the mangoes. Many of the mangoes are green mangoes shipped from Taiwan. The price is also very cheap. You can choose it within 15 yuan.
You can also try some barbecue, but the price should be negotiated in advance.
Grass jelly honey is a refreshing drink unique to Fujian and Taiwan. It has a slightly bitter taste, but it can reduce fire.
Zhongshan Road Pedestrian Street—the most famous commercial street in Xiamen. Zhongshan Road Pedestrian Street was built in 1925. It is the oldest commercial street in Xiamen. It is also a landmark of Xiamen. Here, you can not only taste the most authentic delicious snacks in Xiamen, but also You can buy a wide variety of souvenirs. It is similar to Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street in Shanghai, but I think Zhongshan Road Pedestrian Street is more close to the people and more diverse. The Zhongshan Road Pedestrian Street at night is particularly charming under the rendering of gorgeous lights on both sides.
There are still passing vehicles on the horizontal side of the pedestrian street, and the traffic lights will take a long time. Standing on the corner of the roadside, you can feel people coming and going, and cars coming and going. This is a very good artistic conception.
There are many distinctive shops on the pedestrian street. Some of these shop names are related to celebrities, and some are related to adjectives. In short, they are very literary. It will definitely take more than 2 hours to visit Zhongshan Road Pedestrian Street from the beginning to the end, plus the time to buy special products, because there are too many unique shops here.
long time no see bar
Long time no see Internet celebrity band bar. No. 37 Zhenbang Road
It's a pretty good bar on Zhongshan Road. It's been a long time since I haven't seen the bar. The entrance of the bar is very special. It's the style of the popular Internet celebrity bar.
There are resident singers who sing well, order a cocktail, sit down and listen, it's very relaxing. And you can go up and sing by yourself, which is a good experience ~ also on Zhenbang Road
order some barbecue
really good
I checked in at three online celebrity shops at once, eating, lodging and playing~ The itinerary is very convenient and happy~
Cruise Terminal - Gulangyu For tourists, Gulangyu is a must-see attraction in Xiamen. The ferry tickets for Xiamen locals to Gulangyu Island are very cheap, only 3 yuan, but tourists can only choose to buy tourist tickets. To go to Gulangyu Island, you need to take a cruise ship in Xiamen. You can book the boat tickets on WeChat, and you can buy them by following "Xiamen Ferry Co., Ltd." on WeChat. There are 4 cruise lines, but the main ones are 2. They all start from Xiagu Wharf in Xiamen, and their destinations are Neicuoao Wharf and Sanqiutian Wharf. There are many accommodations near Neicuoao Wharf and many shops near Sanqiutian Wharf. , Book tickets according to individual needs. The price of ordinary tickets is 35 yuan. The number of tickets per day is limited, and they will be gone after buying. The other two lines, one is from Songgu Wharf, Songgu Wharf is far away, it is inconvenient for tourists; and the last one is a night flight, which is not an option for day-trip tourists. Tickets will be tight during the Spring Festival, and we finally booked the first boat on the day from Xiagu Wharf to Sanqiutian Wharf, which departs at 7:10 (the first boat from Neicuoao Wharf is 7:50). After arriving at the pier, you don't need to pick up the ticket, you can enter directly by swiping your ID card.
The directions of Neicuoao Pier and Sanqiutian Pier are clearly marked in the departure hall, so don’t get them wrong.
Even the first boat, the number of tourists is very large.
The air in the morning is very good and very quiet. Standing on the pier and looking into the distance, the mood will become very peaceful at this time.
The ferry departs exactly at 7:10. During the journey, tourists will choose to take pictures of the scenery outside. Because it is too early, Xiamen has not yet woken up, but I really like this tranquility.
The ferry sailed for about 15 minutes and arrived at Sanqiutian Wharf. There is no need to rush to the scenic spots and shops on Gulangyu Island, because it is the first boat, and the scenic spots and shops may not be open. First of all, you should buy a hand-painted map of Gulangyu Island, and then buy a "seal book" with Xiamen characteristics. What is a seal book? This is a feature of Gulangyu Island and even various scenic spots in Xiamen. There are many local shop names in Xiamen in the stamp book. Tourists can ask for the shop’s seal when they go to the shop. Printing it on the seal book means that you have visited this shop. This is the same as Like the World Expo seal book during the 2010 World Expo, it will be very meaningful to collect all the seal books.
The hand-painted map is also a feature of Gulangyu Island, which more clearly shows the location of several major attractions.
Walking on the shore of Gulangyu Island, basking in the sun, blowing the sea breeze, against the backdrop of the blue sky, is very comfortable.
There are many caves on the island of Gulangyu Island. Through the caves, you can reach another area. The first cave we saw is called "Longshan Cave". Longshan Cave is more like a tunnel, and it is very cool inside. It’s okay, we returned without finishing the Longshan Cave.
Xiamen citizens go to Gulangyu Island, they all land from Xiamen Gulangyu Wharf, which is only used by Xiamen citizens.
Before going to Gulangyu Island, many tourists will buy coupons for scenic spots online, and the ticket collection location is not far from the special wharf for citizens in Xiamen. The most famous Nana Beach Resort Hotel on Gulangyu Island, the rooms in the hotel are not accessible to tourists, but this square is accessible. Many local residents in Xiamen will choose to take wedding photos here. The scene is very European-style.
The number of tourists on Gulangyu Island is often reported in the news, but Gulangyu Island is so quiet in the early morning. The shops on Gulangyu Island are very distinctive. Whether it is from the name of the store or the decoration, it can basically reflect the small literary style of young people. Fresh style, in this state, you don’t need to rely too much on the map, you can shuttle through the streets at will, and you can take a picture at will.
Find an exquisite small shop and go in. There is no loud noise in the shop, only the wonderful music of the music box. Appreciate the handicrafts placed in the window, and your own taste can also be sublimated.
Don't forget to stamp it before you leave.
There are also many fresh and artistic hotels on Gulangyu Island. The "Happy Sky" coffee hotel has a good reputation. Tourists can take pictures at their doorsteps at will.
You can see a lot of "Linji fish balls" in Xiamen, but the most authentic Linji fish balls are on Gulangyu Island. Compared with other shops, the store's facade is quite different, but it attracts many tourists to taste it.
Speaking of the most famous scenic spot on Gulangyu Island, it must be Sunlight Rock, which is also known as "Huangyan". According to legend, in 1641, Zheng Chenggong came to the current Sunlight Rock and saw that the scenery here was better than Japan's Sunlight Mountain. The word "Huang" is disassembled, and it is called "Sunlight Rock".
Before climbing to Riguangyan, you need to pass through the Riguangyan Temple. Riguangyan is commonly known as "a piece of tile". four years. Sunguangyan Temple was repeatedly destroyed and rebuilt. During the Tongzhi period of the Qing Dynasty, the Yuanming Hall was built to worship Maitreya, and an octagonal pavilion was built in front of the temple, with a plaque of "Riguang Temple" hanging on it. After liberation, the Yuanming Hall was changed into the Buddhist Hall, and the Daxiong Hall was built in 1917.
Walking through the gate of Sunlight Rock Temple, you can look up to a huge cliff. The inscription on the giant cliff - "Gulangdongtian" makes a wonderful summary of the fairyland-like scenery of Sunlight Rock. It was written by Ding Yizhong in the first year of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty. The feature was written by Xu Shiying in the fourth year of the Republic of China.
Even the tourists on the first boat have to wait in line if they want to board the Sunlight Rock. You can imagine how long the tourists who come later will have to wait.
There are 2 viewing platforms on Sunlight Rock. On the bifurcated road, choose the left hand to get the highest viewing platform of Sunlight Rock, and choose the right hand to get another smaller platform. Since there are many tourists on the highest platform, we first chose a small platform on the right hand side, but we can also see beautiful scenery.
Now that I have come to Sunlight Rock, I must climb to the top once, even if I wait for a long time, I will not shrink back. Sunlight Rock towers in the south of the central part of Gulangyu Island. It is made up of two huge rocks, one vertical and one horizontal.
Only after climbing to the top will you see the beauty of Gulangyu Island and Xiamen with your own eyes. Usually, tourists still have time to take selfies on the top of Sunlight Rock. During holidays, there are too many tourists, and the flow and time will be limited. Every round of tourists You can only stay on it for 5 minutes at most, but these 5 minutes are the most beautiful 5 minutes of Gulangyu tourism.
From another angle, the sandy beaches of Gulangyu Island are clearly visible.
It is not far from Sunlight Rock to the seaside beach, and it can be reached within 10 minutes on foot. The seaside beach of Gulangyu Island even feels a bit like an island in Southeast Asia. Palm trees can be seen everywhere. There are sea motorboats for entertainment. Children like to play in the sand here.
Sunlight Rock is the highest point of Gulangyu Island, so it can be seen from any corner of Gulangyu Island. The palm trees by the sea, the beach and the Sunlight Rock in the distance set off each other, drawing a unique beauty.
Shuzhuang Garden is another paid scenic spot on Gulangyu Island, but it is included in the joint ticket of Gulangyu Island attractions. Shuzhuang Garden was built in 1913. The owner Lin Yongjia, also known as Shu Zang, was named after his homonym. In 1894, the Qing government failed in the Sino-Japanese War of 1894, and Taiwan was ceded to Japan the following year. Lin Weiyuan and his uncle Zang did not want to be subjugated slaves, so they moved to Gulangyu Island to live. Later, Uncle Zang built this garden. Shuzhuang Garden is ingeniously laid out by taking advantage of the natural terrain. The whole garden is divided into two parts: Zanghai Garden and Bushan Garden. On the left side is the lake in the garden, and on the right side is the sea.
Standing on the bridge, you can look at the beach in the distance. The cruise ships seem to stop there in winter. In summer, it is the most lively area. The Piano Museum and Shuzhuang Garden are connected together, but you cannot take pictures in the Piano Museum. There are a lot of pianos in it, both classical and modern.
Haoyue Garden is located in the east of Gulangyu Island. It is a Zheng Chenggong Memorial Park. It was built to commemorate Zheng Chenggong's historical achievements in expelling Heyi and recovering Taiwan. There are three places to visit in Haoyue Garden. One is the statue of Zheng Chenggong. The statue is 15.7 meters high and weighs 1617 tons. It is composed of 625 pieces of "Quanzhou White" granite on 23 floors. When you look at Gulangyu Island from Xiamen Island, you can see this statue, which shows its majesty.
The best viewing platform of the statue of Zheng Chenggong is built on a stone in the sea. This stone is very irregular, so you need to pay attention to safety when boarding the platform.
The beach next to the statue of Zheng Chenggong is the second place to visit. There are not many tourists here, and the sand quality is quite good. The most important thing is that the opposite is Xiamen City, and the feeling of facing the city across the sea very good.
The most famous street on Gulangyu Island must be Longtou Road Commercial Street. The most distinctive feature of this commercial street is not the beautiful scenery of this commercial street, but the shops on this commercial street. It is very distinctive. If it is taken to other cities, each store seems to be a representative of a city. Among them, the most famous one is "Zhang Sanfeng European-style milk tea shop". He has a very large number of cats. Zhang Sanfeng is a cat living in Gulangyu Island, Xiamen. He likes to be free. He was crazy when he was young, but he became deep when he grew up. If it wasn't for the sea to stop them, they would have been wandering around the world long ago." In reality, the milk tea in Zhang Sanfeng's European-style milk tea shop contains red beans and konjac, and each cup costs 20 yuan.
In addition to milk tea, they can also buy a lot of souvenirs of tea to give away. The packaging is very delicate, and young people will like it.
Chenguan Western-style tea shop is a tea shop located in Gulangyu Island that specializes in traditional Fujian tea and promotes Western-style tea drinking. Now it also has branches in the urban area. In addition to traditional tea, the Chenguan Western-style tea shop also has peripheral products such as Western-style flower and fruit tea, tea-flavored preserved fruit, baked pastries, and exquisite tea utensils. "Good tea, careful management" is the only business rule of Chenguan Western-style tea shop. A netizen once posted on Weibo—the signboard of Chenguan Western-style tea shop photographed by Zhang Qi, which triggered a craze for making "star style" sentences. The shop quickly became popular on the Internet and became a must-see for tourists to Gulangyu Island One of the famous shops.
Ms. Zhao's store was funded and opened by Ms. Chen (Ms. Zhao's granddaughter) living overseas, and entrusted friends Mr. Lin and Mr. Pan to open and operate it; the owner was abroad when she was young, and she came back to open this store to commemorate her grandmother. The interior decoration style is It is decorated according to the style of the study of rich and noble people in the past, and it is very warm. Ms. Zhao's shop mainly sells all kinds of tea, as well as some post-tea desserts, such as pineapple cake, red bean cake, etc. The service of this store is also quite unique. If it is not convenient for tourists to carry it, they can also express it. You can fill in the express form and pay. Just pay the shipping fee together.
Compared with the previous stores, what attracts the attention of "Master Dumb" is not its name or decoration, but the "milk bottles" inside. The products in the store are basically sold in milk bottles, mainly for milk tea. , nougat, egg rolls.
Su Xiaotang started from a young girl's dream to open a small shop in Gulangyu Island. She has her own small kitchen with simple and neat kitchen utensils. Su Xiaotang's store style is rural style, very natural and fresh, the nougat inside is very famous, and the taste is very strong, we bought several boxes and gave it to a child.
In addition, there are many more distinctive store names, such as "Sanwei Crispy House", "Lurenjia", etc. You can see many of them in Longtou Road Commercial Street, and each store is worth taking pictures to commemorate.
Bianshi in Fujian Province is also very famous. At first we didn’t know what Bianshi was, but later we found out through local people’s introduction that Bianshi is wonton, noodles, etc. In the past, working people used poles to carry and sell them, so they were called Bianshi. There are also Bianshi on Longtou Road We tasted a few flat food restaurants, and the taste was not as good as expected.
Bishan Cave is the most famous cave on Gulangyu Island. This tunnel contains many stories. It seems that everyone passes by in a hurry. Although they noticed the writing on the wall, they did not stop too much. Everything written here basically includes the bits and pieces of love. On the other side of Bishan Cave, you can walk directly to Neicuoao Wharf. It takes about 5-10 minutes to walk through the entire tunnel.
Compared with Longtou Road commercial street, Neicuoao Wharf area is much simpler, the number of shops is far less than that on Longtou Road, scattered in every corner. When you walk to Neicuoao Wharf, the trip to Gulangyu Island is about to end. You don’t need to buy another ticket for the ferry back to the urban area, because the ticket when you come here includes a round-trip ticket, and you only need to swipe your ID card once.
The Xiagu Wharf at around 4:00 p.m. is completely different from when we set off in the morning. Perhaps it is because Gulangyu is tired from shopping and is more tired.
Back in the urban area, you can experience fish therapy. Fish therapy originated in Turkey and is now more and more popular among Chinese tourists. After the fish therapy, I really feel much more relaxed.
Xiamen University is known as "the most beautiful university in China", and it is a must-see attraction in Xiamen tourism. In terms of transportation, Xiamen University is located on the seaside of Siming District, so the transportation is very convenient. Basically, the bus lines along the seaside can be reached. In my memory, No. 29 and No. 112 run through Zhongshan Road, and the bus ticket is only 1 yuan to Xiamen University West Village. Get off at the station. Visitors to Xiamen University are advised to enter from the west gate of Xiamen University, which is also close to the bus station. After getting off the bus, there will be vendors selling the map of Xiamen University. I think it is necessary to buy a map. After all, Xiamen University is quite big, and there are many places to visit. It is also possible to buy a hand-painted map as a souvenir. of.
In normal times, Xiamen University has limited opening hours, from 12:00 noon to 2:00 pm, and after 5:00 pm. After all, it is a university, and tourists can't affect students' study in normal times. If it is a weekend or a holiday, it is open all day. Visitors entering Xiamen University need to rely on their ID cards to enter.
Zongmeilin Square, like the city of Xiamen, has palm trees everywhere.
The gymnasium of Xiamen University is usually not accessible to tourists.
The founder of Xiamen University is Mr. Tan Kah Kee, a famous patriotic overseas Chinese leader. A statue of Mr. Tan Kah Kee stands on the campus.
The Science and Art Center of Xiamen University has the taste of a museum.
The Kah Kee Building Group is named after Mr. Tan Kah Kee, the founder of Xiamen University and a famous patriotic overseas Chinese. It was designed by teachers and students of the Department of Architecture of Xiamen University. It consists of five connected buildings. It is located on the bank of the beautiful Furong Lake. iconic landscape. The style of the Kah Kee Buildings is Western style, and the Song En Building, which is prominent in symmetry, is majestic and majestic.
Furong Lake in Xiamen University is very beautiful, especially when the weather is good. When my wife and I went there, the sky was clear. The east bank of Furong Lake is very suitable for taking pictures. Taking pictures from the east bank, in addition to taking pictures of Furong Lake, you can also take pictures To the tallest building of Xiamen University, and Xiamen's "Twin Towers".
The building known as the "most beautiful dormitory" of Xiamen University is located on the east side of Furong Lake. The architectural style of the most beautiful dormitory belongs to the architectural style of the Republic of China. The reason why it is called the most beautiful dormitory is because as long as the window is opened, You can see the most beautiful Furong Lake, which is the beauty of the scenery in the dormitory, not the architectural beauty of the dormitory.
Snapshots in Xiamen University.
There are many restaurants in Xiamen University. Although only Furong Restaurant is open to the public, if you want to eat in other restaurants, there are naturally ways. Qinye Restaurant is located at the Danan Campus of Xiamen University. There will be a lot of "scalpers" selling meal tickets at the entrance of the restaurant. You can go to the scalpers to collect some meal tickets, so that you can have dinner with college students from Xiamen University. During breakfast, there are many options for breakfast in the restaurant, and the price is also very high. Cheap, after all, it is sold to students.
"Xiamen University Impression" is a souvenir store of Xiamen University. It is located next to Qinye Restaurant. It is open even during the Spring Festival. Xiamen University books, school emblems, albums, etc. can be bought there. I still remember that tourists in the "Gulangyu Seal Book" can get their stamps stamped in Xiamen University. I have also introduced that the seal book is not only for businesses in Gulangyu Island, but also for businesses in various scenic spots in Xiamen.
Far from the teaching building, there is a scenic spot called "Valley of Lovers" in the northeast of Xiamen University. "Valley of Lovers" was originally called "Siyuan Valley". It is the back garden of Xiamen University. sentiment.
The surface of the lake is very calm. If students of Xiamen University are under pressure from studying or getting a job, they might as well come to Lover's Valley to calm down.
There are several basketball courts in Xiamen University. There is one on the road from Lover Valley to Furong Tunnel, and the scenery of the basketball court is also good. In the distance, there are Xiamen's "Twin Towers". My mood is naturally relaxed and happy. I am a person who likes to play basketball. Even if I carry a heavy travel bag, I still want to shoot a basket.
Furong Restaurant is the only restaurant in Xiamen that is open in the opposite direction. However, the reputation of Furong Restaurant is not very good. The price of the restaurant is relatively expensive, and the taste is only average. Most tourists who go to Furong Restaurant want to recall their college life. It's the scene of group dining in a restaurant like in the movie.
The most distinctive and popular place in Xiamen University should be the Furong Tunnel. The Furong Tunnel connects the teaching buildings and student dormitories of Xiamen University. On both sides of the tunnel are graffiti of previous graduates, showing their nostalgia for university life. The Furong Tunnel is very long and requires It takes a long way to get out, but as a tourist, it is recommended that you go back halfway through the visit. If you walk from the teaching building to the dormitory area, you can’t go back. There is “only in and out”. And it will take a while to go from the teaching building to the beach.
The graffiti in the Furong Tunnel mostly reflect the arrogance of college students, their expectations for the future, and their love or complaints about their majors. For example, students in the clinical department will graffiti the scene of the laboratory, and students in the aviation class will graffiti on the plane. etc. In addition, there are some new elements, such as One Piece, Dabai, etc. All kinds of whimsical graffiti can be seen here. Walking in any street of Xiamen University, you will have the feeling of returning to your student days, and you can also enjoy the very beautiful scenery.
The Huandao Road in Xiamen is actually 43 kilometers long. The Xiamen Marathon in January this year is held on Yanhuandao Road. However, for tourists, the Huandao Road suitable for tourists starts from the section of Xiamen University and ends at the Guanyinshan Seaside Leisure Area. For this reason, the Xiamen Municipal Department has also set up a municipal bicycle rental point. Cycling around the Huandao Road is the way for most tourists to visit the Huandao Road, and it is also the fun of visiting the Huandao Road. There are 8 bicycle rental stations on Huandao Road, Xiamen University Baicheng, Pearl Bay, Calligraphy Square, Music Square, Tatou, Yefengzhai, Convention and Exhibition Center, and Guanyinshan Seaside Leisure Area. The cost of renting municipal bicycles is also uniform. The first hour is 30 yuan for a three-person car, 40 yuan for the first hour for a three-person car. There is an insurance fee of 5 yuan, so you need to pay 305 in cash at the beginning. After returning the bicycle, the fee will be deducted and the excess deposit will be returned. However, at which station the bicycle was rented, it must be returned at the station. It would be more humane if it can be returned in another place If it is a municipal lease, there is also a lease card, which needs to be kept.
There are also private bicycle rentals on Huandao Road. In addition to bicycles, there are also electric vehicles for private bicycle rental. The cost of electric vehicles will also be more expensive.
We chose to start leasing from Xiamen University Baicheng. Xiamen University Baicheng has a lot of tourists and there are many bus lines on the road, so we can't feel the tranquility of Huandao Road, so we often brake to give way.
Tired of riding, lock the car, play on the beach for a while, buy a coconut to taste coconut juice, feel the sea breeze, slow down the fast-paced life, and experience the slow-paced Xiamen.
What needs to be reminded is that there is no beach on the Huandao Road after the Tatou site.
During the Spring Festival, there are many tourists. Only after going to the Music Square can you really feel the fun of riding around the island road. Cycling on Huandao Road is very comfortable, next to the sea and the beach, there are many palm trees on both sides of the road, this scene seems to go to the island. Although the scenery on Huandao Road is good, the supporting facilities are lacking. There are public toilets or small shops at the first three bicycle stations, but there will be few small shops at the next few stations. Most of them are local vendors selling drinks or other food, so prepare for a long time. Tourists who ride for a long time (more than 2 hours) are advised to bring their own drinks. Under normal circumstances, it takes about 3 hours to ride from Xiamen University Baicheng to Guanyinshan Seaside Leisure Area, and then back. If it is a peak tourist season, it is recommended that you ride to the top of the pagoda and turn back. It took almost 3 hours.
Before going to Xiamen, my classmates in Xiamen strongly urged me to go to Zengcuo'an for a simple reason. There are many small shops with fresh literature and art, and all kinds of delicacies in Xiamen. The predecessor of Zengcuo'an was a small fishing village. As Xiamen became more and more popular with domestic and foreign tourists, Zengcuo'an was gradually transformed into a tourist attraction. Zengcuo'an is located in the east of Xiamen University, only 3 or 4 stops away from Xiamen University, and can be reached by Xiamen's main bus lines 29 and 112. The main street of Zengcuo’an can be divided into 4 streets, Wenyiqingnian Road, Church Road, Zhongshan Street and Guoban Road. The main entrance of Zengcuo’an is Guoban Road.
Every road in Zengcuo'an is very lively, and there are many shops with unique store names on each road, such as the second class of the third year, brain flooding, Lu Renjia, Zeng Xiaoxian, etc., you must go to the door of the shop I didn't know what this store sold before.
Before I went to Xiamen, I always thought that "Brain Into Water" was selling beverages, but it was actually a shop selling small crafts and small personalized products. The exterior wall of "Brain Into Water" is very distinctive, decorated with many concentric locks , Visitors who come here can buy a concentric lock to hang on it.
There are many famous delicacies in Zengcuoan. Eight mouthfuls of thick toast is one family, and the price ranges from 10 yuan to 20 yuan. Because there are too many tourists waiting to buy, we didn't taste it.
Ba Popo Shaoxiancao seems to be a chain store in Xiamen, because I have seen it on Gulangyu Island, the price is quite cheap, and you can sit and eat, and the price is quite high.
If the itinerary is very generous, you can find a hostel near Zengcuo’an to stay for one night, and feel the small literature and art in Xiamen, which is fresh and fresh. Indeed, there are many distinctive hotels in the depths of Zengcuo’an, and even some There is also a small boat at the entrance of the hostel, and a lighthouse was built, but I think it is not very suitable if it is during the peak tourist season. We went during the Spring Festival, and it was very noisy there. We chose to stay in Zengcuoan for one night. It’s nothing more than feeling the small literature and art, small freshness and tranquil environment there. In the peak season, the desired environment cannot be achieved. When traveling to Xiamen in the off-season or non-weekends, you can stay in Zengcuo’an for one night, and usually stay The price for one night is not very high. Tourists who like small literature and art should prefer Zengcuoan. On the last day, we did not arrange any itinerary. Xiamen is not a big city, and the attractions are all in Siming District. We have already gone to all the attractions we wanted to visit. Some tourists may think that it is enough to go to Xiamen for 3 days. According to the tourist attractions, 3 days is enough, but the third night will be very rushed, and the attractions in the afternoon of the third day will have to drag luggage It is inconvenient to visit the box. We chose 4 days because we want to have more time. On the last day, I woke up naturally, sat in the hostel, looked at my mobile phone, and talked with other travelers in the hostel about our own travel experience. Some tourists who just came to the hostel and like to talk will listen to us patiently tell.
Everything is so leisurely, the hostel is very close to Zhongshan Road, we suddenly wanted to watch a movie, so we booked tickets online, and went straight to the movie theater after booking, everything was so casual, isn’t it just so difficult to achieve in daily life of it?
Xiamen North——Shanghai Hongqiao Railway Station The last high-speed train from Xiamen back to Shanghai every day is the G1660 train Departure time: 17:06 Arrival time: 23:29 Travel time: 6 hours and 13 minutes I think the return method is us The choice is not good. First of all, the arrival time is already 11:30 in the evening, and the subway traffic in Shanghai has stopped operating. You must take a taxi to go home, but the number of people taking a taxi at Hongqiao Railway Station at night is very large, whether it is the south waiting area or the north. There are a lot of people in the waiting area, so when you come back, you should choose an earlier flight, or choose the plane directly. But think about it the other way around, if you haven’t experienced it, how would you know it, just take it as a lesson for yourself. Summing up the 4 days and 3 nights trip to Xiamen, Xiamen is indeed a very beautiful city, and the title of "Garden on the Sea" is well deserved. The pace of life in Xiamen is very slow, which is what we yearn for growing up in Shanghai, a fast-paced city. The transportation in Xiamen is very convenient. Although there is no subway, there is BRT, and there are many bus lines, and the frequency of departures is also very fast. Only the ferry ticket to Gulangyu Island is a bit more expensive. The locals in Xiamen only need 3 yuan. Appropriately reduce the ferry fee, then tourists will definitely be more comfortable. The food in Xiamen is very similar to that in Taiwan, and there are many types of snacks in Taiwan, so after coming to Xiamen, I feel like I have fallen into a food paradise. The accommodation in Xiamen is dominated by youth hostels. Each youth hostel has its own characteristics. In addition, the price is not expensive. Young people will like the small freshness and literary style of Xiamen hostels very much. Walking in the streets of downtown Xiamen, you can feel the elegance of Xiamen's modernization; board Gulangyu Island, experience the rhythm and environment of life on the island, and visit those distinctive boutiques, which can improve your artistic skills; On Huandao Road, feel carefree, feel the coolness brought by the sea breeze, and let yourself blend into nature. Xiamen is a city worth visiting for the second time, see u! !
