It was incredibly busy! But it was also really family-oriented, not like a party beach at all.

What was the most unusual street we found?
Definitely Cat Street! It was completely dedicated to cats. So weird but cool!
What did we do after the beach?
We tried some amazing street food, then we went to Xiamen University and Cat Street. We almost went to a temple, but it was booked up for three days!
Where did we end up at the end of the day?
We ended up in the middle of nowhere, surrounded by wedding photoshoots. Then we had some matcha!
