Xiamen's Hidden Provence Wonderland! Xiang'an Xiangshan Flower Sea is breathtakingly beautiful!

This weekend, I discovered a hidden gem near Xiamen—the **Provence flower sea in Xiang'an Xiangshan Country Park**! No need to fly to France, the romantic atmosphere here is overflowing 💜. Every photo you take feels like a scene from a French film. Check out this guide! 🌸 **Highlights** 🌸 1️⃣ **A Sea of Purple over 500,000 ㎡** Lavender, verbena, and sage interweave to form a continuous wave of purple 🌊. When the wind blows, it's like stepping into a Monet painting! The setting sun adds a soft filter, making every photo stunning, even without editing! 2️⃣ **360° Photo Ops** ✔️ The boardwalk in the center of the flower sea (perfect for overhead shots) ✔️ White windmill/swing (captures a fairytale feeling!) ✔️ Mountaintop viewing platform (overlooking the entire purple wonderland 🌄) 3️⃣ **Off the Beaten Path, Few Crowds!** Compared to crowded tourist attractions, this place is peaceful and healing~ You can have the entire flower sea to yourself, even on weekends. 📍 **Address & Transportation** ▪️ Navigation: Xiamen Xiang'an Xiangshan Country Park (East Gate) ▪️ Tickets: Free! Free! ▪️ Transportation: Driving is recommended 🚗 (Huge parking lot, parking fee 5 yuan/day) ▪️ Public Transport: Take Metro Line 3 to Guluo Station, then a 10-minute taxi ride. ### ⏰ **Best Time to Visit** ✨ 7-9 am | Soft light, fewer people, great for photos ✨ 4-6 pm | Sunset + flower sea = ultimate ambiance ⚠️ The blooming season lasts until the end of October, so hurry up! ### 👗 **Outfit Recommendations** ✅ White/light-colored dresses (the flower sea acts as a reflector, it's amazing!) ✅ Straw hat + wicker bag (for a French, laid-back vibe) ❌ Avoid dark colors/complex patterns (they'll get lost in the sea of flowers) ### 🍃 **Things to Do Nearby** 1️⃣ Pray at Xiangshan Rock Temple (a thousand-year-old temple, very effective) 2️⃣ Hike on the mountain trails (breathe in the fresh air, very healing) 3️⃣ Eat clay oven chicken at a farmhouse restaurant (a Xiang'an specialty, must-try!) 📌 **Practical Tips** ❶ Sunscreen! Sunscreen! Xiamen's UV rays are super strong 🌞 ❷ Wear comfortable shoes, the park is large and requires walking ❸ Appreciate the flowers responsibly ❌ Don't step into the flower beds~ 🌟 **Click the location below 👇 for one-click navigation!** 📍 Xiamen Xiang'an Xiangshan Country Park · Provence Flower Sea
