Picture 1, 2 & 3 - Huan2 Dao3 Lu4 - Xiamen International Conference and Exhibition Centre is located here. It is similar to our Singapore Expo. It doesn't cost much taking a cab there. On the way, you would pass by Xiamen University and have a very clear view of the whole building structure. Also, you would pass by a beach. It is super windy there, until you would start tearing. Its scenery is superb. When I was here, I feel as if I'm at Marina South, where there is kite flying. The layout of the area is very similar, except that it is much bigger la...There is a neighbourhood near it. There is also a 4 or 5 star hotel here, very convenient for the people attending conferences.Picture 4 to 8 - This temple is called "Nan Pu Tuo Si". It is called south Pu Tuo because it originates from Mt Pu Tuo. Since Xiamen is in the south, hence labelled "Nan Pu Tuo Si". It is very old, having a history of 1200 years. No joke k. It only loses out by 100 years to "Kai Yuan Si" in Quanzhou. I think it is a must see place in Xiamen.
Picture 8 - Many people see this as a wishing rock. To enable your wishes to come true, you have to toss a coin up and make sure the coin stays on the rock. But the difficult part is that the coin bounces off very easily. But the tour guide taught me a method......throw the coin like a frisby, so it would not bounce off so easily.....I had 2 successful attempts. So next time if any of you go there, can use this "secret method" la hor.....:) [actually just simple physics la]
