【推荐1】LOVE TO TRAVEL updated a week ago
Almost everyone who loves traveling has a Xiamen dream. It looks as if no travel list is complete without visiting Xiamen, eating satay noodles, spending time in one of the city's various coffee shops, and staying on Gulangyu Island. Xiamen has the prosperity of a metropolis, but also has the quiet and comfortable feature of an ordinary town. The spring-like climate all the year round and the small and fresh temperament make this city so distinctive. Xiamen is a great destination for family travel, parents, or friends. It is also a good place to travel all year round.
About scenic spots
1. Gulangyu: If you want to tour Xiamen, board Gulangyu. Gulangyu is a beautiful island called the “garden on the sea”，where you can see a block of delicate and unique small houses in the shade of trees, and have the most beautiful mood even at each corner of the street.
2. China's most beautiful university-Xiamen University, small artistic fishing village- Zengcuoan, coastal first line of landscape-a road round the island, all the way to the sea-Zhongshan Road, a popular scenic spot of Jimei Village, the home of the soul-South Putuo,these are the scenic spots on Xiamen Island. There are many web celebrity scenic spots worthy to be visited when touring Xiamen.
3. The poetic landscape town around Xiamen has a history of more than 100 years. It got its name from the TV series “Cļoud Water Balļad”。
4.Fujian Tulou: The shooting place of the movie Big Fish & Begonia. If you are lucky enough to come to Fujian, you must go and see this building!
About the mode of travel
1.Low Price Package Tours:Local tour groups are really cheap. However, the trip is too tight and tiring, and most of the core scenic spots are not arranged, including a few shopping shops. You will feel you are resold to other travel agencies, and the quality can't be guaranteed.Chances are that you will be cheated. (the last choice is to join in the local tourist group)
2. Free travel: if you play by yourself, you need to plan the hotel, tickets, bus and itinerary in advance. It will take much time, energy and expense is high, and it is easy to be trapped because you are not local. If it is the peak season travel, it is difficult to book the hotel and tickets! And if you do not understand the local language, you are likely to book the hotel at a very high price or the location of the hotel is so remote that traffic is not convenient, as is often the case. Unless you have a lot of time and energy, and are willing to arrange all the agenda, you will waste a lot of time and money engaging in all kinds of queuing, finding the ways, and other troubles.
3.Free family travel: the most recommended, the most cost-effective and the most satisfying way to travel! You can book the air ticket by yourself, contact the Xiamen tourism planner in advance, and let him plan the whole trip. You don't have to worry about it yourself, and it's much cheaper than expected. Accommodation and traffic are not only well arranged, quality is guaranteed, but also you will get the most satisfactory service with the least money.
Points for attention on Xiamen trip
1.You'd better bring sunscreen cream, sunglasses and so on just in case. If you won't get sunburnt or suntan, sunscreen must be done.
2. Ship tickets to Gulangyu and the hotel must be booked in advance, or you can turn to Xiamen tourism planner to book them in advance.
3.Do not trust the roadside solicitor! It is easy for you to be trapped with no local guides. If there is anything you do not understand, consult Xiamen local tourism planners.
