Clear views of the Xiamen coastline and the nearby Kinmen Island immediately following departure from Gaoqi.
Anxi Tea Plantations
The terraced hillsides of Anxi, famous for Tieguanyin tea, creating unique geometric patterns on the landscape.
Yellow Mountain Massif
The iconic granite peaks and pine-covered ridges of Huangshan (Yellow Mountain) visible during the northern approach.
Huizhou Villages
Classic white-walled, black-tiled architecture of traditional Huizhou-style villages scattered throughout the valleys of southern Anhui.
