Xiamen in Three Days — 2 Adults

A complete 3-day self-guided itinerary for two adults in Xiamen. Day by day: Zhongshan Road, the Eighth Market, Shapowei and Baicheng Beach on arrival day; a full day on Gulangyu Island (Sunlight Rock, Shuzhuang Garden, the old villa quarter) with the ferry ticket rules spelled out — book 15 days ahead at 9am on the "Yujian Xiamen" mini-program, passport accepted; Nanputuo Temple (free, 4-day advance booking) and the Xiamen Botanical Garden before departure. Prominent airport warning: confirm whether your flight lands at Gaoqi or the new Xiang'an airport — 40–60 minutes difference to downtown. Full weekday planning built in, with the D2↔D3 full swap rule (ferry ticket must be rebooked for the new date). Includes a map for every day, ticket and booking details with prices and real-name booking steps, restaurant picks with spice levels and no-spice alternatives (shacha noodles "ask for non-spicy clear soup"), and bilingual location cards with Chinese addresses and metro exits to show drivers. Self-guided: no guide included. Travel advice only — you book and pay for hotels, tickets and transport yourself. New in v2.0: an Entry Plan Checklist to confirm your entry route before booking, a Payment Setup Guide for linking foreign cards to Alipay and WeChat Pay, and a 12306 guide to buying high-speed rail tickets with a foreign passport — plus a full index. PDF, 34 pages, information verified 1 November 2026.
