If I only had one day in Xiamen, I would follow this route to see the sea of Xiamen
If I only had one day in Xiamen, I would follow this route to see the sea of Xiamen. Perhaps it's not the most beautiful
but it is definitely one of the most comfortable beaches to walk on in China. Even on the same coastline, you can see different scenery. When tired, you could also ride a bike
or take a public bus for just 1 yuan, and enjoy the sea view from the bus. Otherwise, just find a seaside cafe at will, sit down, feel the sea breeze, and let time slow down.
If I could only stay in Xiamen for one day, I would walk this line:
Huangcuo Beach, Wan Yue Po, Pan Ting, Gui Zhan Dao, Zeng Shan Station, Music Square, Pearl Bay to watch the sunset, pick up luggage from the guesthouse, and head to the high-speed rail station.

walked around Xiamen for 5 days and surprisingly found these 18 stunning spots!
🌴A cup of coconut water, facing the sea, listening to the sound of waves hitting the rocks, walking on the trail of natural oxygen bar under the warm sun, shuttling through the tropical rainforest with mottled light and shadow, time seems to slow down at this moment... This is the romance unique to Xiamen.🥰
🤳There are so many fun and photogenic places in Xiamen, I'm going to share the locations of the 18 photos I've taken!🤗
👀P1 Round Moon Square: Under the sunset, the ancient buildings shine, and a flock of birds fly over the round moon. Shooting ancient buildings through the modern round moon shape gives a visual shock of the blend of ancient and modern! Be sure to go on a sunny day!🌞📍Navigate to Round Moon Square.

The most classic hiking route in Xiamen - Mountain and Sea Trail
If you come to Xiamen, I strongly recommend the Forest Sea Line of the Mountain and Sea Health Trail. Here, you can enjoy the beautiful scenery of the mountains and the sea from different heights and angles.
👍Most recommended:
The most exciting section can be from the entrance of the Music Square on the Island Ring Road along the trail up the mountain, where you can view the wide sea, the passing ships, the small island of Kinmen engraved with 'Three Principles of the People, Unify China', the distant South Taiwu Mountain, and the new landmarks such as 'Pangu Tower' and 'Twin Towers'.
🌟Highlights:
The Forest Sea Line of Xiamen Mountain and Sea Health Trail starts from Wuyuan Bay, connects Jinshan, Lake Reservoir, Zhonglun Park, Dongping Mountain, Dongshan Reservoir, Shangli Reservoir, Dongshan Community, and ends at the Island Ring Road. The whole line is about 31 kilometers long. As an important part of the Xiamen Island 'One Ring Three Waters Two Horizontal Two Vertical' Health Trail System, it is connected with the Cloud Sea Line of Xiamen Mountain and Sea Health Trail and the Cloud Top Road Sky Bicycle Lane, forming a trail system that integrates ecological improvement, cultural display, leisure fitness, and sightseeing tourism, creating an outdoor leisure space that combines urban green open space and slow traffic system.
📝Note tips:
If you are short on time, it is recommended to enter from the Music Square on the Island Ring Road and walk to the Pangu Tower, which can be completed in 1 hour.
📝Note tips:
The best time is in the evening, where you can watch the sunset and evening glow.
📝Note tips:
If you have plenty of time, you can choose to enter from Dongfang Villa, which takes 3-4 hours.
