In-depth city guide

Understand Xiamen before choosing a school

A city is more than a school location. It shapes what students see, who they meet, and how they grow outside the classroom.

Geography and Urban Layout

Xiamen is a coastal island city in Fujian, known for sea views, Gulangyu, warm weather, Southeast Asia connections, and a relaxed student rhythm. It is smaller and softer than the largest Chinese cities, which makes it attractive for students who want comfort, scenery, and a manageable pace.

History and Cultural Character

Xiamen's history is shaped by maritime trade, overseas Chinese communities, island culture, architecture, music, and coastal openness. It helps students understand a different China: maritime, entrepreneurial, outward-looking, and highly livable.

Transport and Weekend Mobility

Xiamen has an airport, rail links, buses, BRT, and compact urban distances. It is also a useful base for Fujian coastal trips, tulou routes, Quanzhou, Fuzhou, and Southeast Asia-facing travel.

Signature Places and Youth Experiences

Xiamen and Gulangyu: Xiamen's sea, island, and architecture make it one of China's most relaxed study cities.
