Attractions
Take a 10-minute ferry ride across the Egret River to the scenic island retreat of the early 20th-century wealthy, Gulang Yu. Gulang Yu means "Drum Wave Islet" for the beating sound of waves rushing through hollow rocks. It was the preeminent locale for the international community to build their opulent mansions. Stroll through the serpentine, cobblestone streets (bonus: no cars allowed) to view a wide variety of international architecture at its finest. Along the way, you'll find Asia's largest piano museum.
Shopping
The art of Xiamen lacquer thread sculpture has been in practice for more than 300 years. So is there any better place to pick up a piece? The sap of lacquer trees is mixed with brick powder and shaped into opulent yet delicate three-dimensional designs on plates, vases and urns. Look for bright red vessels covered with gilded gold dragons or phoenixes.
Currency
The currency used in China is the Renminbi Yuan (RMB or ¥).
