Xiamen, often called "Amoy," is a coastal city in southeastern China’s Fujian Province. It sits on the west side of the Taiwan Strait, facing Kinmen Island (part of Taiwan) just a short ferry ride away. Known as the "Egret Island" due to its history as a habitat for white egrets, Xiamen includes the main island, smaller surrounding islands like Gulangyu (a UNESCO World Heritage Site), and parts of the mainland. Its mild, subtropical climate makes it a year-round destination, with warm winters and breezy summers.

In Xiamen’s Siming District, objects roll “uphill” due to optical illusion. Near Botanical Garden, try rolling a ball or biking—seems like magic, but it’s a clever downhill slope!
Peaceful green oasis near Taiping Temple, blending lush gardens, ancient moss-rocks, and Koxinga’s historic study spot. Perfect for quiet reflection amidst nature and history.
