1 day trip to Gulangyu Island in Xiamen

#VisitChina Visitors to Xiamen in southern China's Fujian Province all visit this place because of the "Piano Island", a stunning gem on the southeastern coast of China. It's hard to believe that in an area of ​​only 1.88 square kilometers, there are so many stories from the past century. To live up to the name Piano Island, there are also Xiamen Music School and Piano Museum, as well as many shops and restaurants. The red-orange brick buildings, colonial architecture, are like icons on this island that you can see on every street you walk. One reason is that this place used to be a British colony after the end of the Opium War. In addition, there are also consulates of other countries that were granted special privileges outside the jurisdiction of that war and settled on the island, including Holland, Germany, Spain, and Japan. There is also an old church that is over 100 years old, which has become a popular photo spot for tourists.
