Just got back from a terrible trip to Xiamen. Sisters, think twice before traveling with music.

"The sound of the piano rings in the alley, gently awakening memories. I'm waiting for you on Gulangyu Island, waiting for the wind and for you." Humming this song, "Waiting for You on Gulangyu Island," Xiamen in March has gentle sunshine and a light sea breeze, making it a great time to visit. Come with me and start this romantic seaside trip! 🌊 Itinerary • Day 1: Zhongshan Road Pedestrian Street - Xiamen Ferry Terminal - Gulangyu Island After arriving in Xiamen, head to Zhongshan Road Pedestrian Street, where the arcade buildings are full of Nanyang style, and the dazzling array of special products and delicacies are mouth-watering.
