Gulangyu

Gulangyu Island, located southwest of Xiamen, is reachable by a five minute boat ride. Gu in Chinese means 'drum', and Lang, 'waves'. The Gulangyu Island got its present name from the huge reef surrounding it. When the tide comes in, the waves pound the reef and it sounds like the beating of a drum.
