Located in Fujian province on China’s southeast coast, Xiamen’s appeal to visitors has as much to do with its proximity to the sea as with its century-old colonial architecture. The city has been one of the country’s major seaports for hundreds of years and features a deep water port that is open year-round due to the favourable climate. The name 'Xiamen' mean 'Gate to China’.
