Bailuzhou Park

Xiamen


Xiamen positions itself as China’s most liveable city and this huge green expanse on an islet north of town is a quiet exclamation mark on that claim. Perfect for families or broken souls who need to touch grass for a while.

Bus 25 (¥1, 35 minutes, frequent) heads here north along Lujiang Dao (鹭江道), from the extreme west of the Zhongshan Lu walking street.
