Departing from Heping Wharf in the heart of Xiamen, this 90-minute round-trip journey takes you past more than a dozen of the city's most iconic landmarks . The route weaves past the statue of Zheng Chenggong, where the Ming dynasty hero stands silhouetted against the moonlit strait; glides beneath the Yanshu Bridge, its curved form lit up like a silver dragon spanning the water; and offers unobstructed views of the twin towers of the Shimao Straits Tower, their facades shimmering with shifting light displays . The silhouette of Gulangyu, a UNESCO World Heritage site, sits quietly on the horizon, its colonial-era villas and churches casting a timeless spell . Whether you're a couple seeking romance, a family looking for an evening adventure, or a solo traveler wanting to see Xiamen at its most poetic, the Lujiang Night Cruise offers a front-row seat to the city's glittering nightscape — a memory that lingers long after the ship returns to port.
