Don't queue up at the 'Love Corner' on Gulangyu anymore, these places are stunningly beautiful

Come to Gulangyu
Don't be a 'beauty corner' sucker anymore!!
Every time I see the long queues and the crowd, it really gives me a headache!
The sea, green trees, retro streets, and international architecture
Aren't they appealing!?

Today, I'm sharing an effective route to avoid the crowds
Travel route and check-in strategy
For your first visit!!

🌟How to get to the island
From the Cruise Center to Xiamen Gulangyu Wharf - Sanqiutian Wharf. Remember to book your tickets online in advance, 35 yuan (round trip) for a 15-20 minute journey. If you want to avoid the crowd, it's recommended to choose an earlier ferry.

📷 Must-visit photo spots
🍃Guxin Road
The whole street is lined with red brick foreign buildings, as well as artistic coffee shops and guesthouses. A casual snap captures the romantic, retro vibe of the island!
🍃White Corner
Personally, I think this place is so much better than the 'most beautiful corner'!! The key is that there are no people, and the photo check-in effect is just as great.
🍃Firecracker Flower
This season, any small path's wall will have surprises, with clusters of flowers paired with the small foreign buildings, you can travel abroad in minutes
🍃Dadeji Bathing Beach
The sea, the beach, and water play are all available, and when tired, you can sit on the beach or have a cup of coffee. There's also the best spot for a photo with the Twin Towers
🍃Sunlight Rock
You can save this for the last stop. Climbing Sunlight Rock in the afternoon when the light is best and the photos are super beautiful, it takes only 15-20 minutes to reach the top.

🔆Tips
1. Check the weather forecast before you go, it's beautiful and photogenic on sunny days
2. There are no vehicles on the island, you can only walk. Remember to bring a sun umbrella and sports shoes
