Meet at Xiamen Wutong Wharf and take a luxury ferry to Kinmen Shuitou Commercial Port. Upon arrival, you will visit JUGUANG TOWER. In 1952, the Juguang Tower was built under the design of renowned architect Sheng Xue-hai. This ancient three-story attic structure has a splendid appearance and extraordinary atmosphere. Inside the tower are exhibition halls displaying documents and materials concerning the history and current status of Kinmen.

Walking into Zhaishan Tunnel, you can't help but feel great awe for this huge tunnel. Witness remnants of Taiwan's military history at Zhaishan Tunnel. Built to escape bombing from mainland China during the 1958-shelling of the island, the two-part 101 m (331 ft) long tunnel was the only way supplies could be transported to the defending island. Construction commenced in 1958 and was conducted 24 hours a day without skipping a day until its completion three years later. The fact that the tunnel is completely made of granite adds to the engineering masterpiece's impressive features. The water channel comfortably houses 42 small boats, thanks to its 357 m (1,171 ft) length and sits attached to the tunnel. It was abandoned in 1986 due to sediment deposition.

Head to a shopping store which sells Gong Tang. One of Kinmen's agricultural products is peanuts, and they are the main ingredient of this popular souvenir. Gong tang literally means “tribute (to the emperor) candy”. In the Southern Fukian dialect of Chinese, “gong” means “to manually hit”, which is what is done to the peanuts in order to make the candy. It comes in various flavors and textures: plain peanuts, peanuts with coconut, peanuts with sesame, etc, crunchy and chewy. You can see the process of making Gong Tang and taste it for free.

Then head to another store which sells one of the specialty products of Kinmen called “金門一條根 Jin Men Yi Tiao Gen”, loosely translated into a kinky-sounding “A Kinmen Root.” Found in the Kinmen area, pharmaceutical books claim that the Yi Tiao Gen herb, or 阔叶大豆 (Glycine tomentella Hayata) can enhance blood circulation, build general health and is especially good for treating arthritis and body aches.

A trip to Kinmen simply isn't complete without at least a sip of Kaoliang liquor. Aromatic, sweet, spicy and brisk, it's distinctive. Kinmen Kaoliang Liquor Inc., is a public enterprise whose sales help fund various local services, including school lunches for Kinmen children and bus passes for all local residents. On the 40-min tour of the factory, you'll see machinery used in the production process, and learn the interesting story behind this product so important to Kinmen's economy…And of course you'll have the chance to try some kaoliang jiu and buy it!

After that, you will head to Kinmen National Park which is the first national park in Taiwan aims for protecting the historic and cultural relics such as battlefield monuments due to its historic background. In 16th century, the Japanese pirates constantly harassed Kinmen, so the government geared up the island with fortresses and arms. Since 1949, Kinmen once again became a battlefield between Chinese Communist and Kuomintang. Battlefield relics include the Guningtou Battle Museum and the August 23rd Artillery Battle Museum. Then have dinner and tranfer to your hotel.
