Xiamen "Yujian Minnan" Full Itinerary Guide for Labor Day ​​🌞 10:00 AM: Departure & Park Opening​​ ▪️ ​​Transportation Tips​​: Take Metro Line 2 to the Cruise Center Station, Exit 6, and walk for 5 minutes to reach the park gate (if driving, it is recommended to arrive before 9:30 AM, otherwise parking spaces will be limited). ▪️ ​​First thing upon entering the park​​: Get a paper map! Scan the QR code to bind the mini program to view the real-time performance countdown. ​​🎉 11:00 AM: First Performance "Auspicious Time Has Arrived"​​ 📍Sihai Courtyard (Central Square) ▪️ A must-see opening! NPCs will distribute candy/red envelope props, it is recommended to stand in the front row for interaction. ​​⏳ 11:30 AM–1:00 PM: Free Time​​ ▪️ ​​"Past and Present Lives"​​: An immersive theater in Sihai Courtyard. After watching, take a detour to check in at the "Fuxi Mountain" Song Dynasty Academy (wearing Hanfu will make for better photos). ​​🍜 1:30 PM: Lunch + "Echoes of a Thousand Years"​​ ▪️ It is recommended to have lunch in "Yanhuo Alley": ✔️ Minnan snack set (Tusun jelly + Shacha noodles + peanut soup) ✔️ The Xiamen Shacha noodle stall is the most popular, it is recommended to queue before 1:00 PM. ▪️ After eating, you can catch the 1:30 PM "Echoes of a Thousand Years" — a large-scale performance, it is recommended to arrive early to grab a seat. ​​🎨 3:30 PM: Intangible Cultural Heritage Experience "Four Arts Gathering"​​ 📍Fuxi Mountain (need to reserve a seat 10 minutes in advance) ▪️ After the Song Dynasty tea ceremony performance, you can experience DIY (CNY 58/person, including tea and snacks). ▪️ The "Qianwen Hall" on the same floor offers a free rubbing experience (you can take the work with you). ​​🌅 5:30 PM: Twilight Limited "Thousands of Sails Return"​​ 📍Qianfan Market (it is recommended to go to occupy a waterfront location at 5:00 PM) ▪️ Fishermen's chants + illuminated fishing boats, the atmosphere is full at sunset. ▪️ After the show, rush to the second floor of the "Boat House Restaurant" to capture the sunset and fishing boats in the same frame. ​​🌙 7:30 PM: Grand Finale Show "Ode to Welcoming Guests from All Over the World"​​ ▪️ 40 minutes in advance! Best location: Stone steps on the left side of Sihai Courtyard (avoid tree shadows). ▪️ Water curtain projection + torch dance, remember to turn on your phone's wide-angle lens to record the panorama. ​​🚗 9:00 PM: Departure Guide​​ ▪️ Night sightseeing car directly to the subway station (last train at 9:30 PM). ▪️ Take a taxi to "Gate 3 of the Scenic Area" where there are fewer people and more cars. ​​💡 Lessons from Experience​​ Wear comfortable shoes! The average of 20,000 steps a day is no joke. Bring a power bank (there are only 5 rental points in the park). ❗️❗️"Auspicious Time Has Arrived" is just a one- or two-minute light show, no need to rush to see it! 60+ can rent ancient costumes inside to take pictures! You can also find a makeup artist inside to do your makeup and take pictures! 📸📸 —— ✨ Babies who need a high-definition program list can message me privately for the original image~ Look for partners in the comments section!
