Spend a day in Jimei, Xiamen on the weekend

👉There are 105 weekends in 2025 (I counted) 🎉Try something new in the new year 🎉Unlock 105 new experiences and challenge yourself to do something different every week This is issue 001, the challenge theme is: 👉Spend a day within 20 km of home, don't come back until night👈‼️ 🔴Morning: Take the "Miyazaki's cross-sea train" from Xiamen Island to Jimei School Village • Take Metro Line 1 to Jimei School Village Station • Dragon Boat Pond: Mr. Tan Kah Kee built three ponds, the outer, middle, and inner ponds, by reclaiming land from the sea. The outer pond is commonly known as the "Dragon Boat Pond." There are seven pavilions around the pond, and you can walk around and enjoy the view of the Tan Kah Kee buildings in Jimei School Village on the other side. 🔴Morning: Tan Kah Kee buildings and park • Tan Kah Kee buildings: Visit the Tan Kah Kee buildings in Jimei School Village, including the Nanxun Building and the Shangzhong Building of the School of Economics and Finance. • Tan Kah Kee Park: Built in the style of a traditional Chinese garden, with pavilions, terraces, corridors, and red pillars with glazed tiles, it has a strong Tan Kah Kee architectural style. 🔴Noon: Have lunch at Jimei Dasha • Dasha Shacha Noodles: Try the famous Dasha Shacha Noodles 🔴Afternoon: Cultural and historical experience • Tan Kah Kee Memorial Hall: Learn about the life of Mr. Tan Kah Kee and the Tan Kah Kee spirit. • Ao Garden: The tomb of Mr. Tan Kah Kee, with more than 600 exquisite bluestone carvings, is a major representative of Minnan stone culture. • Binhu Road: Ride around the lake from Binhu East Wharf, see the reeds and egrets flying. 🔴Evening: Have snacks at Shigu Road Food Street • Shigu Road: A famous food street in Jimei School Village • Watch the sunset at Shili Longdi, arrive before 5:30 pm 🔴Night: Watch a performance/concert at Tan Kah Kee Theater This weekend I went to Wu Muye's piano concert If it wasn't for this great pianist, who could listen to Liszt for 3 hours without getting distracted? I was sitting in the middle, and I could see Wu's every breath clearly, his fingers flying so fast that they left afterimages. The high notes were clear and soft, calm and serene. The low notes were like roaring and growling, like a wild beast coming out of its cage. I'm an amateur, but I could listen to Liszt's difficult and technical pieces without getting distracted and immersed in them. This shows how skilled the pianist is. Beautiful! This is what life is all about‼️
