Xiamen Island Ring Road! The weather is perfect for a seaside citywalk...

🌊 Back to work today! Still lots of people by the sea, but compared to the May Day holiday... 🚶🏻‍♂️ Crowds have thinned significantly – those traveling off-peak scored big! 🌞 Daytime weather has been great! Just that sunrise/sunset conditions are unpredictable 🚲 Island Ring Road citywalk route: 🏝 Yefengzhai Haiyun Platform > Xitou Xia > Music Square > Tianquan Promenade 📸 Photography tips: ✔️ Yefengzhai Haiyun Platform: Must-visit spot on the Ring Road! The lonely tree by the sea! A bookstore facing the ocean! Coffee bus parked by the shore – perfect for Japanese-style photoshoots. Even on cloudy days, flash photography works wonders here. ✔️ Xitou Xia: Leads to the seaside boardwalk! Great weather makes the turn left of Tuji Senyu BBQ super photogenic! Can skip if cloudy. ⭐️⭐️⭐️ Music Square: Best spot for ocean views and sunsets in autumn/winter! Seaside benches instantly create movie poster moments! Usually the endpoint of the route. 🌇 Sunset spots: Tianquan Promenade > Zengcuoan Beach > Baicheng Beach > Bay Park > Jimei Shili Long Dyke > Xiang'an Sports Center > Ferry Pier > Music Square 🌄 Sunrise spots: Huangcuo Seashore > Yefengzhai Beach > Convention Center Beach > One Country Two Systems Beach > Guanyinshan Beach > Jimei Lehai Park > Tong'an Rainbow Beach ‼️‼️ Important details: ✔️🏨 Accommodation: I chose Haiyi Hotel – close to the beach, modern facilities, complete amenities, good service! Plus many great eateries downstairs for convenience. Island Ring Road transport: Bus 29 > DiDi > E-bike rental > Shared bikes 🍢 Must-try foods: Satay noodles - Worm jelly - Ginger duck - Sticky rice dumplings - Four-fruit soup - Fried vegetable balls - Five-spice rolls - Oyster omelet - Thread noodle soup - Manjian cake - Xiamen spring rolls - Grass jelly - Peanut soup. Can find these at Ba Shi or Siming North Road intersection.
