The biggest part of what is now modern-Xiamen dates back to its past days. Xiamen was called "lower gate to the sea" because of its costal location being often attacked by pirates and merchants. The old name - the "Gate to China" totally reflects Xiamen with its hundreds of years of history.
The first settlement in Xiamen dates back to the New Stone Age. But first the features of the city were gained with the Song Dynasty that reshaped the city due to administrative organization. When the power moved to Ming Dynasty in 1387, the imperial government initiated construction of villages and forward posts.
No one ever expected Xiamen would develop into top tourist destination and one of the most visited in China. The main lure for tourists there is Xiamen’s landscape with cliffs, rock formations and islands. This is rare scenery in the modern age not to mention fresh air Xiamen has. It is regarded the cleanest city in China because of nature and undeveloped economic activities including fishing, shipbuilding, food processing, tanning, and textiles.
