X is for Xiamen
2018 #AtoZ Challenge
We’re in China today for our only stop in the country. We’re visiting the city of Xiamen.
Beginning at the top of the montage – Xiamen’s CBD, Xiamen University, Gulangyu Island, South Putuo Temple, beach on Gulangyu Island, and Haicang Bridge
In 2006, it was ranked 2nd in “most suitable city for living” and in 2011, China’s “most romantic leisure city.”
The centre of the Chinese tea trade, Xiamen ships hundreds of thousands of tons, yes tons, of tea to the Americas and Europe.
