Walking on zhongshan road in Xiamen has an atmosphere to rival nanjing road in Shanghai.It is great for people watching, eating , light shopping and taking pictures. There are a range of shops from the high end stores nearby to the tea and sweet shops with endless free tasters alongside the actual walking street My suggestion is wearing comfortable shoes and dedicating yourself an evening to zhongshan road Be prepared for throngs of people and take a walk just of zhongshan road towards the ferry port overlooking the island as it is quite beautiful
