I have been to several places with this feeling, so I still recommend Gulangyu Island in Xiamen. Although the sparrow is small, it has all aspects. The infrastructure of the city is all on the island. Hospitals, markets, public security bureaus and schools .....
But there are no cars and no air on the island.
And here you can definitely avoid the tour guides and a lot of people and walk slowly by yourself. The island is full of hand-painted maps, which is also very quaint. The deeper you go, the quieter and more comfortable you are. If you get lost, you can knock on the residents' doors and ask for directions. They will tell you and even take you there. There is a sense of peace everywhere here.
Have you seen The Lost Gulangyu? I remember reading this book in the warm light every night when I was there, and I felt really relaxed and comfortable.
The book also introduces many strategies, which are specially prepared for friends who want to live on the island for a month. You might as well refer to it. Some suggestions are really good.
And the city of Xiamen is also very quiet. The city itself is a big garden, very beautiful. It's not an exaggeration to go to the island road for a day, let alone the seaside ~ ~ ~
Vacation, mainly to relax, everything is to slow down and be quiet! !
I wish you a good mood! o(∩_∩)o ...
