Qindao Slow Tour】Gulangyu One-day Intoxication Record**

**【 When I stepped onto Gulangyu Island at dawn, the sound of piano flowed out from the cracks of the old houses, as if time had stopped here. The winding stone road connected the old red brick houses and the courtyards with rose walls. At the corner, I saw a cat crouching lazily in front of the century-old post office. In the afternoon, I took a nap at "Zhang San Feng Milk Tea" and let the sea breeze blow away the summer heat. The fragrant cakes at "Miss Zhao's Shop" next door, accompanied by a cup of osmanthus wine, were the laziest time in southern Fujian. In the evening, I climbed up Sunlight Rock, and the whole island turned into amber in the sunset. The neon lights of Xiamen on the opposite bank gradually lit up, as if it was a world away. There is no noise of motorcycles here, only the ding-dong of battery cars and the sound of waves. When the dusk settled, I sat on the terrace of "Lijiazhuang" and looked at the stars, and I was surprised that the beauty of Gulangyu Island was the conspiracy of old times and slow life.
