"Latest Xiamen Travel Notice! These Attractions Require Advance Booking!"

🔥【Xiamen Walking Tour Guide】Spend 800 RMB per person for 4 days! Local hidden artistic experiences revealed! 🏝️ **Top 5 Must-Visit Spots:** 1️⃣ **Gulangyu Island**: Arrive before 8 AM to avoid crowds! Check out the most beautiful corners + Shuzhuang Garden Piano Museum 2️⃣ **Shapowei**: Artistic shops + graffiti walls + fishing boat dock (perfect for shooting the Twin Towers night view at dusk) 3️⃣ **Botanical Garden**: Rainforest mist time (9:30-11:30 / 14:30-16:30) for a fairy-like atmosphere 4️⃣ **Huangcuo Beach**: The cleanest beach in all of Xiamen! The orange sea at sunrise is breathtaking 5️⃣ **Jimei School Village**: Take the sea metro Line 1 (Gaoqi-Jimei section) to unlock a scene like "Spirited Away" 🍜 **Food Highlights:** ✔️ Bajie Market: Ajie Five-Spice Roll + Yousheng Satay Noodles (fill up for about 20 RMB per person) ✔️ Zhongshan Road: Haoxiang Pork Skewers + 1980 Roasted Meat Zongzi ✔️ Zengcuoan: Axin Thick Toast (avoid the main street, the alleys are more authentic) 🚲 **In-Depth Travel Route:** **Day 1:** Gulangyu Island (stay overnight on the island and stroll the quiet old streets) **Day 2:** Bajie Market → Zhongshan Road → Shapowei → Yanwu Bridge Viewing Platform **Day 3:** Botanical Garden → Bell and Drum Cableway → Huangcuo Beach **Day 4:** Sea Metro → Jimei School Village → Shigu Road Snack Street 📸 **Photo Hotspots:** • Gulangyu "Cheng'an Coffee" corner wall (Nordic style street shots) • Xian Road Flower and Bird Market (buy a bouquet for 9 RMB and shoot vintage-style photos) • Bay Park "Little Hill" for a sky shot like Studio Ghibli’s ⚠️ **Avoid Pitfalls:** ❗ Buy Gulangyu ferry tickets 3 days in advance! Choose "Xiamen-Gulangyu Pier → Sanqiutian" ❗ Don’t trust taxi drivers’ recommendations for "Kinmen tours"! ❗ Big mangoes are not local; green mangoes dipped in soy sauce are the authentic way to eat 💎 **Hidden Experiences:** → Huaxin Road 32HOW Coffee (enjoy hand-brewed coffee in a century-old villa) → Old Goods Warehouse (travel back to 1980s Xiamen) → Ring Island Road cycling (rent an electric bike for 30 RMB/hour) 🎁 **“Follow us to get the Gulangyu Off-Peak Map!
