Xiamen Travel|Two Days and One Night Trip to See the Sea

I went to Xiamen in early July, and the weather was extremely hot🔥. Although the temperature was around 32 degrees, it felt very different from the temperature in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Shanghai🌞. - 🏠Accommodation: The Cozey Homestay 💰Price: 400➕ per night The homestay is halfway up the mountain, with a nice environment. There is also a cute dog inside. When you go out for a walk, you can see sheep raised by the residents. It's quite quiet, and there is a large swimming pool inside, so you can bring your swimsuit😏. - Day 1⃣️ Itinerary: Watching the sunrise at Huangcuo Beach—Back to the homestay for breakfast—Shapowei, Art West District—Lunch at Happy Wonton—Gulangyu Island—Enjoying the sea breeze and watching the sunset—Seafood stall. - 🌄The sunrise by the sea is yyds (forever the best), I envy those who live in coastal cities, really👍. - For breakfast, I had Shacha noodles and Minnan rice rolls (forgot to take pictures), both tasted pretty good! - Shapowei, I think it's more like an art district, mainly consisting of small literary shops, experiencing the romantic feelings of Xiamen🤭. Happy Wonton is right next to Shapowei, a bite of sour soup and a bite of wonton, paired with Minnan vinegar meat, is absolutely delicious. - 💰Ferry ticket: 35 per person (round trip, remember to book one day in advance) 🎫Ticket purchase guide: Follow "Xiamen Ferry Co., Ltd." to buy tickets. In the afternoon, we went to 【Gulangyu Island】 to catch a sunset🌄. We didn't check out some of the famous spots on the island because there were too many people🤯, but we did see a lot of bougainvillea, beautiful alleys everywhere, and the lighthouse on Gulangyu Island... - In the evening, we went back to Xiamen and ate at 【Yan'an Seafood】: Shacha pot, five-spice rolls, scallion oil squid, seaweed fried rice. The portions were very large😂, but we still ordered a lot because we wanted to try everything🤭. We also went to the seaside to celebrate a friend's birthday🎂, it was so much fun. - Day 2⃣️: Tang Banquet—Jimei School Village—Haidi Park—Lefo Coffee, Wake Up, Fatty Spicy Hot Pot. Because we were too tired on the first day, we slept until 12 o'clock and went straight to 【Tang Banquet】 for lunch. The Shacha fried meat and taro duck were amazing, Xiamen specialty dishes❗️. The Ocean Star dish had an abalone and a shrimp❗️. - After that, we took Line 1 to 【Jimei School Village】 and 【Haidi Park】 and took the sea train🚄. The track at Haidi Park is great for photos🔥, but if you don't like taking photos, I suggest not going there, as the surrounding area is quite desolate, and the track is only a small section. - The last stop was 【Lefo】 coffee shop, located near a residential area. When we went, there weren't many people. We heard the owner and friends discussing the differences in coffee flavors and talking about recent happy events, the ideal life❗️❗️. On the way, we stumbled upon a spicy hot pot place, which was incredibly delicious, completely different from what we had before, and we are still reminiscing about it👀. The cakes at 【Wake Up】 were also very🉑️, not too sweet. The owner makes only a few each day, with no fixed menu, so what you get depends on luck 🌝. - On the way to Gaoqi Airport✈️, we also saw Xiamen's fiery sunset, romantic to the end, Xiamen yyds❗️❗️
