Xiamen is a melting pot of diverse cultural influences from both the East and the West. If you find yourself unable to attend the 2024 Olympics in Paris, fear not, for Xiamen offers a taste of France with its French-inspired hotels, restaurants, and art galleries.

One such gem is the Tefang Portman Seven Stars Bay Hotel & Resort, dubbed the "Versailles Palace of Xiamen". Featuring a gorgeous 7.9-kilometer stretch of coastline, expansive European-style gardens, and a classic French ambiance, this establishment promises a truly luxurious experience. Within the resort, the PARISPARIS French restaurant offers authentic French cuisine and an overall dining experience akin to the opulence of Versailles.
