In this episode of Beyond the Brochure, follow Jean Newman Glock to Gulangyu, a pedestrian-only island off the coast of Xiamen in southeastern China. Designated as a UNESCO World Cultural Heritage Site, Gulangyu offers a unique blend of history and charm, accessible via an 8-minute ferry ride from downtown Xiamen. Jean admires the island’s stunning architecture—which hearkens back to Xiamen’s colonial era when Western residents lived here—and tours China’s only piano museum. Later, Jean discovers the island’s beautiful beaches and visits the extraordinary “ship-shaped house” for a memorable experience.
