Xiamen Time

Attraction Recommendations - Gulangyu Island: Known as the "Exhibition of International Architecture," where you can stroll and admire various architectural styles, check in at the most beautiful corners and the "clear sky wall," and climb Sunlight Rock for a panoramic view of the island. - Xiamen Botanical Garden: A fairy-like rainforest world, along with a tall and mighty cactus area, offering great photo opportunities. - Zhonggu Cableway: Overlook the panoramic view of Xiamen from high above, taking in both the cityscape and natural beauty. - Huandao Road: Perfect for cycling, with green mountains and trees on one side and blue sky and sea on the other, allowing you to enjoy the beautiful seascape. - Nanputuo Temple: A nationally renowned Buddhist temple where you can pray for blessings, taste award-winning vegetarian dishes and pastries, and enjoy the view from above. - Jimei School Village: Full of Minnan charm and overseas Chinese characteristics, you can check in at the overwater subway, just like in *Spirited Away*. Food Recommendations - Local Cuisine Restaurants: Shangyu Shuichan·Minnan Baked Seafood wins with its flavor, and the signature fried crab is worth a try; Linjia Minnan Cuisine offers a Minnan-style environment; Zui Yi Hao Seafood Stalls is a Xiamen food landmark, known for its fresh seafood. - Specialty Snacks: Huang Zehe's peanut soup, Dan Man Guan's traditional egg pancakes, and 1940 Shao Rou Zong's signature Shao Rou Zong are all very distinctive. - Other Cuisines: Tong'an Feng Rou (braised pork), boiled octopus, duck porridge, ginger duck, and Misua are also Xiamen specialties. Accommodation Recommendations - Luxury: Xiamen Seven Stars Hotel showcases modern Chinese architectural aesthetics; Conrad Xiamen is located in the landmark twin towers, overlooking the city; Waldorf Astoria Xiamen is a century-old luxury brand. - Family-friendly: Xiamen Hyatt Regency Resort & Spa has a swimming pool and a large playground; Shangri-La Xiamen is popular with children; Portman Seven Star Bay Xiamen·Seaview is also suitable for family trips. - Scenic View: In addition to Conrad Xiamen and Shangri-La Xiamen, Crowne Plaza Xiamen Jimei Seaview offers modern sea-view rooms and access to the coastal food street.
