A Delayed Post: Xiamen
March 23, 2007-March 25, 2007: Derek and I met up with my Dad and Debbie on a business trip to Xiamen.
Located at the southeast coast of China, Xiamen is a tourist city of Fujian Province famous for its attractive seascape. The city has been a major seaport since ancient times. The name "Xiamen" means a gate of China.
During our travels through Xiamen, we had the privilege of meeting a local family who lived on the oldest street in the city. The household (which consists of a husband and wife, the wife's mother and the couple's daughter) run their business out of a storefront on the main level. The remaining four levels make up their home. Unfortunately, the city has plans to demolish the famous street this year.
