Xiamen Travel
Xiamen is a beautiful harbor city, which is known to the West as Amoy, It is characterized by charming waterfront district, pleasant and mild climate, clean environment, and its characteristic food.

Tourists can sail to romantic Gulangyu Island from Xiamen to see the colonial mansions, explore the quirky but marvelous tulou, or head northeast to Wuyi Mountain, the World Cultural and Natural Site to learn ancient Fujian culture, see beautiful Danxia landform and enjoy some hiking.
 
In Xiamen, tourists can go to visit sunlight rock. It is also called the summit of Gulang Islet. On the mountain, huge and precipitous rocks form many caves and gullies. Pavilions are hidden among green trees. The Lotus Flower Convent is on there. A huge rock named ''A Piece of Tile', sitting on the top forms a hall below. On the large rocks beside the convent are inscribed ''Wonderland of Gulang,'' and ''Number One along the Egret River". Behind the convent are ''the Dragon's Cave of the Egret River,'' ''the Cave of Summer Resort'' and there scenic spots. Close to the convent is the historical site of Zheng Chenggong's Dragon Head Mountain Fastness and the platform for directing the raining of his seamen. Coming to the top of the mountain, you can see the beautiful view of the sea and the mountains. The Xiamen Island and Gulangyu, Dadan and Erdan are all presented before your eyes.
 
Another spot is Shuzhuang Garden, First built in 1931 on the southside of the island, Shuzhuang Garden was once a private villa. It became a garden park open to the public in 1955. It is divided into two parts-the Garden of Hiding the Sea and the Garden of Making-Up Hills. It was exquisitely designed to embody three important characteristics in gardening---hiding elements, borrowing from one's surroundings, and combining movements.The principle of hiding elements is embodied in the way the ocean remains hidden from view even when tourist walk right up to the garden gate. However, once tourists emerge from the bamboo forest, the seascape leaps into view. Climb the Tower of Tide-Viewing to really get a terrific look at the sea.Borrowing from one's surroundings refers to cleverly using naturally available scenery.
 
Piano Museum is a good place to visit. There are 30 famous-brand Piano from all over the world. This Museum was built over 100 years ago. All the piano was collected by Hu Youyi. He had made an agreement with local government, These pianos will be on show for 10 years and then be donated to the local government.
