The hidden gem of Datong Road old street

📖 Itinerary: 1-"In the 1930s and 1940s, Datong Road was the undisputed first commercial street in Xiamen, and was known as Xiamen's 'Nanjing Road'." 2-Datong Road was constructed in 1926 and completed in 1930. It was one of the five major thoroughfares planned by the Xiamen government at the time as part of the 'four horizontal and one vertical' (the 'four horizontal' being Xiahe Road, Datong Road, Siming East Road to Siming West Road, Zhongshan Road to Zhonghua Road, and the 'one vertical' being Siming South Road to Siming North Road). It was also the second modern road built during the opening of Xiamen. ✅ Must-visit attractions: Gospel Church The mixed Chinese and Western style arcade buildings Xinjie Church The Eighth Market Old book stalls 🍜 Must-eat delicacies: Street food stalls offering peanut soup, Mianxianhu, duck congee, shrimp noodles - these are the breakfasts that Xiamenese have grown up with. The flavors are simple, warming both the stomach and the heart! 🏠 Accommodation recommendation: Juzi Crystal Hotel on Zhongshan Road, which has family rooms and rooms with bathtubs. Both the decoration and service are quite warm and welcoming;
