Xiamen
This cool collection of islands and mainland combines industrious commerce and eco-friendly savvy with effortless ease. Tour the cityscape along the Cycling Skyway, or roam the exhibitions of youth arts and culture in Shapowei district. You'll start to see the innovative, creative identity that Xiamen wants to forge. But in the beaches, winding lanes and arts venues of vehicle-free Gulangyu Island, this Hokkian hipster's already got heaps of charm.
