Hulishan Fortress

A compact historic site: ramparts, a famous Krupp gun, and the sea. It is an hour, and it is more interesting than another mall with air conditioning.

Historic sites 历史古迹

The guns are the artifact. The view is a bonus. Give it the hour and leave.

Historic military site. Small, clear, and done.

Getting there

East shore of Xiamen island, a taxi or bus from the center. Combine it with a seawall walk, not with a Gulangyu morning.

Staying nearby

Main island, central. The fortress neighborhood is a shore road, not a dining district.
