Take Metro Line 1 from Xiamen City Center to "Zhenhai Road Station," then transfer to Bus 857 bound for "Gulangyu Ferry Terminal." The journey takes about 30 minutes. From the terminal, board a ferry to Gulangyu Island—this is the most convenient and scenic route.

Nancqing Palace is located in the island's heart, just 1 km from the pier. You can walk, rent a bicycle, or take an electric shuttle for a relaxed arrival. For added convenience, some boutique hotels offer complimentary airport-to-temple shuttles. Note: Gulangyu is a car-free zone; all motor vehicles require special permits. Opting for eco-friendly transport enhances your experience of the island’s serene charm and rich cultural atmosphere.

Beyond visiting Nancqing Palace, participate in Mazu Faith Experience Workshops hosted by the temple community.
