3-Day Xiamen and Tulou Relaxation Tour
Xiamen is an idyllic destination which you should not miss for a weekend trip, especially if you live in the south of China.
This 3-day relaxing Xiamen and tulou (Hakka earthen strongholds) tour provides an opportunity to see the best sights in and near Xiamen in a short amount of time. No need to research which tulou cluster is worthy of a visit for authentic Hakka culture. Don't worry about the tourist crowds on popular Gulangyu Island. We have selected the best tulou clusters and designed an off-the-beaten-path route for you to have an authentic travel experience.
Tour 'Wow' Points
Explore Mulan's Movie Home
See a real earthen building that's so similar to Mulan's home that you'll think you're in the movie. Be invited by Hakka people into the living room of their earthen building. They'll show you the upstairs floor, which is not allowed in most of the other earthen buildings.
Feel the History and Artistic Temperament of Gulangyu Island
Get off the recurrent route that most tourists take. Discover the villa where Mr. Chiang Kai-shek once lived, listen to beautiful organ music, and enjoy a bird's eye view of the island from a viewpoint with few tourists.

Traveler Reviews
Looking back, I wasn't sure how much would fit into 3 days without feeling hurried. The balance worked better than I expected. The stop at Xiamen and Tulou Relaxation had room to breathe instead of becoming another quick photo.
The unglamorous part: the practical side was solid: an easy pickup, sensible timing between stops, and no long sales detour disguised as sightseeing. I would still leave extra time for Xiamen and Tulou Relaxation.
One thing I learned: lunch landed later than I expected, so a small snack was useful. I was happier not cutting the time at Xiamen and Tulou Relaxation.
The route made more sense once we were on it. Time at Xiamen set the pace, while Xiamen and Tulou Relaxation gave us a reason to slow down.
No grand claims from me: this was organised well, felt personal and showed us Xiamen at a sensible pace.
