About Accommodation
1. B&Bs, in Xiamen is still recommended to stay in the characteristic B&Bs, which are concentrated in the vicinity of Gulangyu Island, Huandao Road, Huaxin Road, Zengcuo Aun, Huangcuo and Xiamen University. B&Bs must be booked on regular websites, and you must read the messages and never be cheated by the pictures. (Although the B&Bs on Gulangyu Island are expensive, I personally think that Gulangyu Island's scenery at night is better than that during the daytime, and it is still quite good to stay on the island for one night, recommending the Luca International Youth Hostel and the Gallery Hostel). Zhongshan Street, near the train station will be more convenient

About anti-fraud
1. Specialties, about Xiamen's mango ah (especially said to buy how much postage) passion fruit, coconut, these really are not Xiamen specialties, to buy a little taste on the line, take it home there is no need for this.
2. On the taxi, in Xiamen, taxi software is still quite convenient, so it is recommended that you can call a drop express car, high comfort and price with a cab almost the same or even lower. The road enthusiastic driver recommended to listen to it, especially the restaurant!
3. On the special snacks, I feel that the national food street to sell snacks are the same, there are some stalls hanging authentic snacks, special snacks, there is no need to go to eat, authentic special snacks in the old city, everyone happy tour on a special introduction.
4. Beware of scalpers, very attractions are not tickets or buy online is cheaper, such as Xiamen University is not tickets, but many black cars or scalpers will have various forms of solicitation, to be able to prioritize the near Xiamen University as the reason for different levels of charges. If you want me to say or honestly pinpoint to queue. South Gate and West Gate are accessible to tourists.
5. About seafood, many people come to Xiamen like to eat seafood stalls, seafood stalls on the beach do not have to try, it is best to be familiar with the people with or follow some of the recommendations of the travel guide to eat.
