There are too many people when you go there on holidays. There are queues everywhere. It is hot and uncomfortable, but the scenery is beautiful. I didn’t take the cable car next to it because the number of people is limited during holidays.
It is suitable for children to take a walk and see various plants. It is best to enter from the west gate, take the sightseeing bus, and get off at the south gate. This will save energy and the children will not be too tired.

The Bernoulli Cannon is spectacular. The Hulishan Fort is conveniently located next to Baicheng Beach, with buses running right outside. The sea views, blue skies, and white clouds are fantastic for taking photos. The staff are friendly and can even make small photo keychains for free, which is a great touch.
The scenery of Hulishan Fort is very beautiful, and you can also learn about the history of the bombardment of Kinmen and the past resistance against foreign enemies. The overall feeling after the tour is very good, the sea view is very beautiful, and you can see some of the islands of Kinmen, which is impressive.

The scenery on the boat is very beautiful and the overall fun is also very strong. I have been on Guangzhou and other Shanghai boats before, but the culture on this boat is not as good. The entertainment activities on this boat are very motivating. But the meal is just average. I went there late at night and there was nothing to eat. Although there was always food to eat, the variety became very limited.
The night cruise on the Xiamen ferry was amazing! The sea breeze was so comfortable, and the night view of Gulangyu Island looked like it was covered in stars. The buildings outlined by the lights were so charming. You could also watch the light show on both sides of the strait. It was so relaxing to chat in the breeze. It was worth the price of admission!

Loved it. Lots to do, you could spend all day there. Also make sure you hire a buggy. This place is huge.
The Fantawild Hotel in Xiamen is quite unique. When we got there, we went to Fantawild to play. We saw that the room we booked could see the light show at night. The swimming pool was also very nice. It was very special to swim on rainy days. You could even see the fireworks. However, I lost a pair of slippers there and couldn't find them. Maybe I thought Fantawild was so good that I didn't want to come back.

Enjoyed the experience very much. If you have the whole day, you can do all the attractions. I had a few hours and just spent more time enjoying the garden and the scenery. The view from the peak of the rock is spectacular and worth the visit. Also, if you appreciate music, you’ll enjoy the piano museum. I did. Please ensure you present the QR code to the ticket agent because she was doubtful of this purchase.
The ticket is 30 yuan and there are paper tickets. There are not many people. It doesn't take long to walk around the route. The air conditioning is great. It's too hot outside. Cherish every air-conditioned room. It is a must-see attraction in Gulangyu. Next to it is Sunlight Rock and not far from Haoyue Garden. The whole Gulangyu is not big, and there are several paid attractions with passes.

It was a very interesting experience to take a sailboat for the first time. I bought the order on Ctrip, which was simple and convenient. At the appointed time, more than a dozen people gathered together and put on life jackets 🦺 to get on the boat. The trip took a while, and there was definitely enough time to take pictures. The wind was very strong, and my hair was flying in the photos. I suggest wearing a hat, hahaha.
It's worth it, but we went during the off-season, so the price is relatively expensive during holidays. The scenery on the sea is great. The wind and waves are a bit strong in winter. Standing on the boat, I felt like I had gained divine power and was crowned the king of the ocean, and I experienced the pleasure of cutting through the waves. When there is no fog, you can see Taiwan on the other side. If you are super lucky, you can see marine animals such as dolphins. We didn't see any when we went there.

厦门潮汐之眼摩天轮是一个非常适合放松和拍照的地方。摩天轮位于海边,能够俯瞰整个厦门市区和海景,视野非常开阔。舱内设施齐全,乘坐舒适,尤其是日落时分景色非常美而惬意。购票流程方便,工作人员态度友好。周边有多个购物中心和餐厅,游玩后可以顺便购物和用餐。虽然高峰期需要排队,但总体来说体验非常不错,推荐给家庭和情侣游客。
The view of the Ferris wheel on the sea is super beautiful. In fact, I think it should be the most beautiful when the sun sets. I took the evening one and the view was also good. I hope I can take the evening one next time to see the beautiful view of the sea at sunset.

The following is a review of Baicheng Beach: Pros - Excellent Location: Located on Huandao South Road in Siming District, Xiamen, right next to the South Gate of Xiamen University, between Yanwu Bridge and Hulishan Fort, it offers convenient transportation and a wealth of surrounding amenities. - Stunning Sunsets: In the evening, the sky often shimmers in a vibrant pink and purple, creating a truly romantic scene. As the sun gradually sets, its golden afterglow casts a dazzling golden glow across the sea, creating a stunning backdrop against the Yanwu Bridge, the Twin Towers, and other buildings, creating a breathtaking spectacle. Photos are also incredibly vivid. - Rich Leisure and Entertainment: Play beach volleyball with friends or rent bicycles for a ride along the coastline. The beach is also the venue for the annual Sand Sculpture Competition, attracting many residents. - Rich Cultural Heritage: The beach is dotted with giant mice, the semi-circular overpass resembles a giant clock, and the Baicheng ruins are carved with various abstract square patterns, blending beautiful scenery with a rich cultural heritage. - Excellent Beach: Baicheng Sea is a popular bathing beach among Xiamen residents. The two large reefs near the shore have become a scenic spot, and suitable swimming spots are available at any time of day, regardless of tides. Disadvantages - Average Beach Quality: The sand is coarse in some areas, making it uncomfortable to walk barefoot. There are also broken shells and garbage. While the area near the water is relatively clean, the overall beach quality needs improvement. - Overcrowding: Especially during holidays and peak tourist season, the beach is often overcrowded with tourists, making it difficult to capture aerial shots or enjoy a quiet beachfront experience. - Heavy Commercialization: The beach is crowded with vendors who aggressively sell coconuts, sand-dredging tools, and photo services. Prices are inflated, and some seafood stalls even overcharge customers.
When you come to Xiamen, Baicheng Beach is a must-visit place. It is located at the foot of Baicheng in the south of Xiamen University. From the Baicheng Gate of Xiamen University, you can cross the overpass to this charming beach. The sand on Baicheng Beach is fine and soft, and it feels itchy and comfortable when you step on it. The sea water is clear and the waves gently hit the beach, leaving shallow water marks. Walking along the coastline, you can see the shells on the beach shining in the sun, as if they were treasures left by the sea. This is not only a good place to appreciate the natural beauty, but also a great place to experience seaside activities. On the beach, children happily dig sand and build castles, while adults play and take pictures on the beach. At low tide, you can also bring tools to catch the sea and harvest a lot of "trophies". In addition, Baicheng Beach is also one of the best places to watch the sunset in Xiamen. Every time the sun sets, the sky is dyed orange-red, and the golden afterglow sprinkles on the sea, sparkling and beautiful. Baicheng Beach not only has beautiful natural scenery, but also integrates a profound cultural heritage. The beach is dotted with giant mice, the semi-circular sky bridge is like a huge clock, and the Baicheng ruins are carved with various abstract square patterns, as if telling the story of time. Here, you can enjoy the sun, beach and sea breeze, and feel the romance and vitality of Xiamen, a coastal city. Baicheng Beach is really a place where people don't want to leave once they come!

If you have time at least 2 hours, it is good to spend it here. Really enjoyable, and good performance.
Lingling Circus City is awesome! This is simply a happy camp, where men, women, young and old can have fun! The circus performances are amazing ——The foreign actors are all skilled, the flying man can flip better than Sun Wukong, the lions and tigers are as obedient as big cats, and the magician can make your phone disappear with a wave of his hand! The stage lights are flashing like they are free, and when the music starts, the whole audience shakes their legs, which is more exciting than a concert! It is more cost-effective to bring children here! In the animal kingdom, you can watch pandas chewing bamboo all day long, giraffes have necks taller than school buildings, and children can laugh like geese when feeding alpacas. When the floats are parading, clowns chase you to give you balloons, actors wear fairy clothes and high-five you, and your phone album explodes in minutes! The most conscientious thing is that the prices are not a rip-off, milk tea is the same price as outside, and the set meal is full.
