Dreaming of the Sea Garden】Immersive experience at Ronggu Villa on Gulangyu Island, Xiamen**

**【 Stepping into Ronggu Villa, it feels like traveling through the corridor of time. This century-old house hidden in the deep shade of Gulangyu Island, the red brick walls reflect the mottled sunlight, and the European-style corridors entangled with vines whisper the old style. Push open the carved wooden window, the sea breeze blows on your face with the sound of the piano, and the sound of the waves in the distance and the pigeon whistles on the island interweave into a poem. The villa retains the decoration details of the fusion of Nanyang and Minnan - the stained glass windows penetrate the light and shadow like broken gold, the old phonograph stands quietly in the corner, and even the air is filled with coffee and sandalwood. In the afternoon, sip a pineapple cake with Tieguanyin on the terrace, watch the egrets fly over the red-roofed houses, and instantly indulge in the lazy magic of this "sea garden". Looking back when leaving the island, the bougainvillea in Ronggu peeks out from the wall, like a love letter to time, inviting people to visit again.
