Last Hours on Gulangyu Island: Mansions, Market, Seafood Peanut Soup Dinner and Xiamen Skyline


Seafood soup with peanut base for dinner at a street-side stall.

I realised that with my pace of travelling, which is I stop and look and smell the flowers, 1 day on Gulangyu Island is not enough to visit all the sights of interest. There were more places I wanted to see but the sunset was fast approaching.

This blog post will mostly be pictures of my last few hours on the island. I highly recommend hopping the boat over from Siming to here if visiting Xiamen. The island is so rich in history and it's a beautiful place.
