Located near Xiamen City, the small pedestrian-only island of Kulangsu was a frontier stronghold for many countries looking to enter Chinese mainland after the First Opium War (1839-1842). Only covering an area of 1.88 square kilometers, its heritage buildings are well-preserved, offering a unique example of a modernized international community in the beginning of the 20th century.
