Journey to Xiamen 厦门

We, Elena, Weronika, Bill and I, got up really early this morning to leave off towards Xiamen. The railway station 杭州东站 was really full since this was the beginning of the Golden Week, where nearly all Chinese have a week of holidays, starting from the National Day on October 1st. The train to Xiamen took 7 hours.




Well arrived in Xiamen, we took the metro and a bus towards our hostel. The hostel was really nice. We had a room for four and even a bathroom with a proper shower. So luxurious!



In the evening we went out for dinner and to explore the neighborhood next to our hostel. The neighborhood has lots of cats living on the street and the district around our hostel was kind of hipster with lots of colors and cat decorations. For dinner I tried something typical for Xiamen, 厦门海蛎煎 Xiamen oyster fry. I didn't really understand what I ordered because on the picture it looked like a Pizza. In fact it was an omelette with lots of oysters. Interesting combo...











Later we went for a walk to the seaside. Xiamen is situated on an island. We had lots of fun and a nice evening walk. The temperature was still in the evening nearly 30 degrees. In the evening we chilled at the hostel and met some other people from the hostel.
