Wanshi Hill Tourist Area

Wanshi Hill Tourist Area

Nature is at its most impressive in this picturesque area. Only 500 meters southeast of the city proper, it is a major scenic spot known for its caves and egg-shaped granite rocks, which blend harmoniously with the flowers and trees of the botanical garden near Wanshi Lake. The Hongshan Amusement Park is also located here at the southwestern foot of the hill. This tourist area can be reached by bus from downtown Xiamen.

The Subtropical Botanical Garden

The Subtropical Botanical Garden, whose full name is the "Overseas Chinese Garden for the Introduction of Subtropical Plants," is not only designed for researching subtropical plants, but is also a beautiful place for sightseeing. Boasting thousands of plants, the garden is divided into more than 20 nurseries.
