Island surrounded by the sea, south-west there is a cave, rise and fall, waves crash, issue such as the drum sound, so the name "Gulangyu." 14 afternoon, I came to this long-sought island, deeply impressed by the simplicity of her nature, her art of accumulation, and her very soul-stirring beauty.
"Xanadu", which is Gulangyu gave me the first impression. One on the island, I was the natural simplicity of the scenery here, shook lived. There is no high-rise buildings, some only a patchwork of two, three-story buildings. According to reports, there was a national government's concession, known as the "Wan Island countries," many countries at that time the embassy housing is, as more use of stone was constructed, renovated and the unique charm.
There are no motor vehicles and bicycles, residents are mainly on foot, the only means of transport is a small tram. In fact, island tour by car it is "violent burial heavenly objects," Gulangyu of the United States, Gulangyu the net, only small items can be perceived.
The way the island is very narrow, generally also to two meters wide, winding paths among the shuttle in the lush jungle, mountains and build, clean, such as washing. Along the line, both past and dignitaries of the house, or the ordinary residential areas, leisure and delicate flavor of life, Run into the heart.
One on the island, I say: If there is a house here, that is how the United States thing. A friend told me that in order to protect Gulangyu, prevent over-exploitation, the Xiamen city government has not provided any additional buildings on the island. In order to become the new fixed-tenants, is "extremely difficult for" the. To come along with a friend said she want to spend the night at the Gulangyu on, looking for a waterfront room, covered with Somebody in walking, in the rise and fall of waves in the sleep products with Gongfu tea, eat ocean oyster fry, how pleasant. If it is not anxious to go, I really think there is going to experience.
Gulangyu is known as "dao," said the island's achievements in a number of well-known musicians. It is said that the vast majority of families on the island who will be playing the piano. I think this is not the boastful words, from the pouring of the Qin Yin street speaker Lane to the foot of floor tile patterns on the stave, visitors seem to walk in piano.
Shun down, melodious sound of the piano where the shutters from the elegant carved carve out, attracted our pace. In the consent of the owner's consent, we walks into. The original, here is a childcare by. After the inhabitants of the islands to work, put the children are being sent to summer holidays here. Traditional preschool The difference is that, where every room has a piano, children under the guidance of the teacher is playing the piano. That made me the "vast majority of families on the island who will be playing the piano" was convinced.
