You've never seen such a Xiamen!

In fact, a long time ago, I don't love Xiamen, always feel not to let the world know that they are young artists too pretentious momentum hated the city. As a junior high school age, we all wore Anta, but there is a classmate in your ear if Nike shoes more cattle B.

Later, I went to Xiamen for an article "Bobby Chan" the old town of Xiamen, Wen Qing Xiamen does not feel good, just think everything is OK ", but I was addicted, addicted to his pen in the dilapidated old house in the old bookstore, the impatient the fish stall boss, that sleeping in the sun in the barber shop, and the sinking in the mud of the small wooden boat.

Finally, Xiamen is no longer in the arts, travel Raiders with soft filter small fresh, it is affectionate and slightly melancholy. Like a boy wearing a light colored shirt always smiling, but in fact there is a 80 year old!

So, I sat 28 hours of the train to Xiamen, when a month of volunteer work during the day, the leisure time aimlessly through the streets. So, next I introduce you to Xiamen, and not you know that young artists, he may I take a bus, a station casually, may be I walked two hours, walked into the alley.

Shapowei

In the Shapo tail time, occupy most of my time in Xiamen, where few tourists, shop owner to take a ignore this, for I like this with "clerk enthusiastic phobia" of people, it is a kind of extrication. Sitting on the old bookstore on the small chair, look at the book, nobody nobody knocked me, staring at the boss, have their own books, don't talk to me.

Typhoon shelter

There is a Shapo tail dock shelter, Xiamen is the most primitive port, dock with many fishing boats, the type of the crescent Moon Bay, along the dock shelter, opened several cafes and bars, exquisite and elegant, know that there were not many people, mostly local youth.

The first time I went there, it was a rainy day, and I was stuck in a shop full of afternoon light. The boss gave me a waffle, then back under the canopy of reading, I roll up their sleeves at the dock shelter, eat waffles with leek pie like. The rain is more and more big, store the audio playing "summer breeze", we don't talk to each other, but the most common music hum song!

The corner of the old shop

Later, I asked the boss of Xiamen there is no second-hand market, she told an old shop I at the end of the road, called buchuo.

After the rain stopped, I follow the direction she found the shop, beauty shop assistant knocks a Djembe in the doorway, I ordered a cup of juice in the bar, rub the boss two pieces of candy. He asked me why I came to Xiamen, I was very Green Tea told him I want to travel, this is the first stop, he reminded me of a girl in addition to Caution!, I took him to my sandwich, nodded......

Real Live Bar

Real live is a live bar in the western art Shapo tail, now many popular folk singers and bands, before being commercial, have been here to do a concert tour.

That day I went to the station, is a Spanish folk singer, he closed his eyes while playing the guitar, singing shaking legs, "Shit is shit, truth is truth!" at that moment, feeling the world only two colors, black and white.

Datong Road

This architecture has a history of more than and 100 years, with European style "Baroque" style, and the position of Zhongshan Road (the famous tourist group gathered LRRH) separated by only one street, but after the taste completely different, here, mostly local people in Xiamen, the street shops are genuine the old Xiamen.

Add flavor

There is a decades old street, called the most authentic Xiamen flavor added, in which all the snacks, the price is very cheap, 20 dollars you can eat.
