Hello! We are back. Phew, couldn't bargain for more. Really, it's a value for money holiday. We were arranged to join in those touring Zhangzhou in addition to the original Xiamen, Choazhou and Shantou. It cost another S$130 and we got it for free. :) Besides, we were brought to quite a number of places outside our itinarary.
12 March 2008
We arrived at Xiamen at 1330 hrs after a 4 hour flight. The temperature was about 22 degrees celsus. The guide introduced himself as Xiao Chen and we headed to Nanputuo temple as our 1st destination. He was a detailed person and gave us a history of the temple and details of the the Buddhas. Facts: It is located at the foot of the Five Old Men Hill and has a history of over 1000 years.
After the temple tour, we travelled to Zhangzhou. The journey took about one and a half hour. It was evening and had our dinner there afterwhich we checked into our hotel. Darkness fell and we strolled a pasar malam nearby.
