Back to Gulangyu Island mess but scenic gulangyu is a scenic & serene island forever BUT as time goes by unsolicited tour guides are everywhere, hope the management will do something about it, I especially love the piano museum BUT again the management should be strict with the no smoking policy. one should be aware of those seafood restaurants offering live catch,don't be fooled by the tempting offers,the price might be doubled after you ask for the bill.

Plenty of opportunities to practice speaking Xiamenese. We traveled by ferry from Xiamen. No vehicles are allowed on the island. The island is peaceful and has much history. There are some great places to walk, a bird sanctuary, and a overhead tram.

Actually i tried to visit again during my 2nd trip to Xiamen, but i didn't have enough time in Xiamen.I wish to be there when i have chance again and again.
