China Trip - Part 5

11th March 2009, Wednesday

Last night we went to Gulangyu Scenic Spot "鼓浪屿" to visit one of our relative. Suppose to visit to his house but could not make it coz got to rush back to Xiamen, because 6th aunt and last aunt going to prepare to go back Singapore today.

So, today after our lunch (小笼包) at a stall near to the hotel, we decided to visit the uncle again. Basically most of us like that uncle very much because he look exactly alike my great grand father.. He was so kind, spent almost half a day with us..

The island is just 15 minutes ferry (cruise) ride from Xiamen harbour. But is totally different scenery / environment compare to the busy city. Motorized vehicle is strictly prohibited in the island. So the air is fresh and the environmet is realxing.

It is a touirsm spot and so we can have lots of places for visiting. But because we have to walk to each destination, which is quite tiring.. we only visited 2 spots.
