They walked in the sea paradise, admiring the exquisite buildings and garden landscapes. Suddenly, a melodious piano sound came, as if the sound of nature floating from a distant place. Lin Yifei was attracted by the wonderful piano sound. He walked in the direction of the piano sound and found it was a cafe.

In the cafe, a young girl was playing the piano. Her fingers were jumping briskly on the piano keys, and beautiful notes flowed out from her fingertips. Lin Yifei was infected by this romantic atmosphere. He pulled Li Xiao and Zhang Yuedong into the cafe, found a seat to sit down, ordered three cups of coffee, and quietly listened to the wonderful music.

He never leaves the camera in his hand, and he is determined to record every beauty in the journey.

Li Xiao picked up the coffee, took a sip, feeling the mellowness and warmth of the coffee. He looked at the beautiful scenery outside the window and sighed: "In such a place, listening to the melodious sound of the piano and drinking the fragrant coffee is really a pleasure."

Zhang Yuedong also nodded in agreement: "Yes, Gulangyu is really a place full of romantic and literary atmosphere, and people don't want to leave when they come."

They sat in the cafe for a long time and enjoyed the rare tranquility and comfort. They did not get up and leave until the sun set and continued to explore the beautiful island.

After coming out of the cafe, their stomachs began to roar. Li Xiao suggested: "Let's go eat seafood. How can you not eat seafood when you come to Xiamen? I heard that the seafood in Gulangyu is very fresh and tastes great."

Zhang Yuedong and Lin Yifei agreed. So they came to a food stall by the beach. The food stall business was very popular and full. They found a seat to sit down, and the waiter warmly greeted him and handed over the menu.

Zhang Yuedong looked at the menu and his eyes lit up: "There are so many types of seafood here, including crabs, shrimps, shellfish, fish, etc., and there are many others that I can't name."

Li Xiao smiled and said, "Then order some signature dishes and try the local specialty snacks."

They ordered a steamed crab, a portion of scallion shrimp, a portion of fried clams, a portion of oysters, a portion of shacha noodles and a portion of earthy bamboo jelly. After a while, the dishes were served one after another.

The steamed crab is very large, with full crab meat, tender and juicy. Just simply steam it, you can taste the most primitive deliciousness of the crab. Li Xiao peeled the outer shell of the crab, exposed the white crab meat inside, dipped it in a little vinegar, put it in his mouth, and the delicious taste suddenly spread in his mouth, making him praise: "This crab is so delicious, the meat is tender and delicious, it is simply a delicious food in the world."

The fried clams have a strong taste, the meat is fat, tender and delicious, and the soup inside is also very tasty, making people unable to help but eat one bite after another. Lin Yifei ate it with relish, and he said: "The clams are so delicious. This is the first time I have eaten such delicious clams."

Oyster fried is a traditional snack in Xiamen. It is made of fresh oysters, eggs and starch as raw materials. Oyster fried is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with a strong aroma. It is paired with sweet spicy sauce and coriander, and the taste is even richer. Li Xiao tasted the oyster fried and praised: "This oyster fried is really so fragrant. The deliciousness of the oysters and the tenderness of the eggs, and the seasoning of the sweet spicy sauce is simply a perfect match."

Then, they tasted Shacha Noodle. Shacha Noodle is one of the specialty delicacies in Xiamen. It uses Shacha Sauce as the soup and adds noodles, shrimp, fish balls, tofu and other ingredients. It has a rich taste and a rich taste. Li Xiao took a sip of Shacha Noodle soup and was immediately conquered by the rich taste: "The taste of this Shacha Noodle is so unique. The Shacha Sauce has a rich and mellow aroma and rich ingredients, which is really delicious."

Finally, they tasted the earthen bamboo shoot jelly. The earthen bamboo shoot jelly is a jelly-shaped delicacy made of sea sandworms. It is crystal clear and has a smooth taste. Li Xiao looked at the earthen bamboo shoot jelly and was a little hesitant, but he still mustered up the courage to taste it. Unexpectedly, the taste of the earthen bamboo shoot jelly made him feel very novel. He said in surprise: "The taste of this earthen bamboo shoot jelly is so special, smooth, cool, and has a faint umami flavor. It is really amazing."

Zhang Yuedong and Lin Yifei also tasted the earthen bamboo jelly, and they also praised the taste of the earthen bamboo jelly. Amidst the laughter, they enjoyed this sumptuous seafood meal and felt the unique food culture of Xiamen.

After eating seafood, they came to the Nanyin Museum constructed by Haitiantang and prepared to enjoy a Nanyin performance. Nanyin is a traditional music in Fujian and is known as the "living fossil of Chinese music history" and has unique artistic charm.

Li Xiao said: "I have heard that Nanyin is beautiful for a long time, and today I finally have the opportunity to experience it on the spot. I heard that Nanyin's singing style and instruments are very distinctive, so I am very looking forward to it."

Zhang Yuedong also expressed his expectations: "Yes, Nanyin is sung in Minnan. Although I can't understand the lyrics, I can feel its melody and charm."

Lin Yifei was very interested in Nanyin's instruments. He said: "I have checked online that Nanyin's accompaniment instruments include pipa, sanxian, Dongxiao, Erxian, etc. The tones of these instruments are very unique, and the music played must be very good."

The performance began. The first one to appear were several actors dressed in traditional costumes. They held instruments such as pipa, sanxian, and flute, and began to play.

Although they did not understand the specific meaning of the lyrics, the affectionate singing and beautiful melody deeply intoxicated them. Lin Yifei stared at the actors on the stage without turning around and recorded this wonderful moment with his camera.

During the performance, they also learned about the historical and cultural background of Nanyin.

It combines elements of ancient Central Plains music, southern Fujian folk music and overseas music, and has a unique artistic style. Nanyin's repertoire is rich and diverse, with some expressing love, telling historical stories, and depicting natural scenery.

The accompaniment instruments of Nanyin also opened their eyes. The pipa is one of the most important instruments of Nanyin. Its tone is crisp and pleasant. When playing, the fingers quickly pluck the strings, making wonderful notes. The tuning of Sanxian is thick and low, echoing with the pipa and complementing each other. The timbre of Dongxiao is melodious and ethereal, as if it is a faint sadness, adding a unique charm to Nanyin. The tuning of Erxian is bright and cheerful, adding vitality to the entire music.

This performance of Nanyin made them feel the profoundness of Minnan culture and also gave them a deeper understanding and understanding of Nanyin, the traditional art of Nanyin. After the performance, they gave warm applause and expressed their gratitude to the actors for their wonderful performance.

After watching the Nanyin performance, they came to Longtou Road. Longtou Road is the most prosperous commercial street in Gulangyu. There are various shops selling various specialty goods and souvenirs.

Li Xiao said: "When you come to Gulangyu, you must bring some specialties back to your family and friends. There must be a lot of specialties here, so let's pick them up."

Zhang Yuedong nodded in agreement: "Yes, I also want to buy some souvenirs for myself to remember this trip."

They walked into a pie shop, which was filled with pies of various flavors, including mung bean filling, red bean filling, coconut filling, meat floss filling, etc., which was fragrant and mouth-watering. Zhang Yuedong tried several flavors of pies, and he said while eating: "This Xiamen pie is really delicious. The crust is crispy, the filling is sweet, and the taste is delicate. Each flavor has its own unique flavor." Finally, he bought a large box of pies of different flavors and prepared to take them back to share with his family and friends.

Then, they came to a shop selling Kinmen tribute candy. Kinmen tribute candy is a specialty snack in Xiamen. It is made of peanuts and malt sugar. It tastes crispy and sweet and delicious. Li Xiao picked up a piece of tribute candy and put it in his mouth. In an instant, the sweet taste spreads in his mouth. He praised: "This Kinmen tribute candy is indeed well-known. It tastes so sweet and has a crispy taste. The more you eat it, the more you become addicted." So he bought a few packs of tribute candy and prepared to take it back as a snack.

At Longtou Road, they also bought some other specialties, such as nougat, jerky, fish pine, etc. Nougat has a rich milk flavor and many nuts of various flavors. It is a very popular souvenir.

They not only enjoyed the beautiful scenery of Gulangyu, tasted the delicious food of Xiamen, watched Nanyin's wonderful performance, but also purchased many Xiamen's specialties. They knew that this romantic coastal city had left a deep mark in their hearts.

Time flies, and their journey is coming to an end. The night before embarking on their return journey, the three of them sat around the hotel room, sharing photos taken along the way, and recalling every bit of the journey.

Li Xiao looked through the photos in the camera and sighed: "Along the way, every city has left a deep impression on me. The Forbidden City of BJ, the rich historical and cultural heritage, seems to have allowed me to travel back to the ancient times; the Hongya Cave in Chongqing, the dreamy night view, and the hot and exciting hotpot have made me feel endlessly aftertaste; Gulang Island in Xiamen, the romantic island, every building and every alley tell a unique story."

Zhang Yuedong nodded in agreement: "Yes, this trip is really unforgettable. Not only did I see the beautiful scenery, taste the food from all over the world, but I also experienced different folk cultures. Those Peking Opera, Sichuan Opera face-changing, and Nanyin performances gave me a deeper understanding and love for Chinese traditional culture."

Lin Yifei sorted out the photos while saying, "We have also met many interesting people and heard many touching stories. These experiences will become the most precious wealth in our lives."

They recalled the concentration of learning historical stories with the tour guide in the Forbidden City; at the Chongqing hot pot restaurant, they were sweating profusely but still exclaimed the pleasure of enjoyment; in the cafe on Gulangyu, they listened to the melodious piano sounds and enjoyed the comfort of the quiet time. Every moment seemed to be right in front of them.

Li Xiao picked up a photo of watching the flag-raising ceremony in Tiananmen Square and said, "When I saw the five-star red flag slowly rising in Tiananmen Square, I felt a sense of pride in my heart. That solemn and solemn atmosphere made me deeply feel the pride of being a Chinese."

Zhang Yuedong looked at a photo of the ancient town of Ciqikou, Chongqing and said with a smile: "When buying specialties in Ciqikou, those enthusiastic stores and a wide range of specialty products made me feel the fireworks of this city."

Lin Yifei took out a photo of watching the sunset by the Xiamen sea and sighed: "When I was watching the sunset by the Xiamen sea, I felt that time had stopped. The beautiful sunset and the sparkling sea surface were really beautiful."

They shared interesting stories on the journey, the niche attractions that were accidentally discovered because they got lost, and the small episodes they encountered during the journey became the shining points in their memories. Amid the laughter, their reluctance to leave this trip became stronger.

Li Xiao looked at the night view outside the window and whispered: "I really can't bear to end this trip. I feel that there are still many places I haven't visited and many scenery I haven't seen."

Zhang Yuedong patted his shoulder and said, "Don't be sad. Although this trip is over, there are still many journeys in our lives waiting for us. We will have the opportunity to go to more places and see more scenery in the future."

Lin Yifei also nodded and said, "Yes, this trip is just the beginning. When we have time next time, we will set off together to explore more beauty."

They agreed that after returning to their respective cities, they would organize the experience and photos of this trip into an album as a memorial to this trip. At the same time, they also began to look forward to the next trip, looking forward to the next gathering, to experience more different customs and cultures, and to create more beautiful memories.
