A good benchmark for the cleanest city in China
In general, the people of Xiamen and Jimei feel they have better culture than people from other cities of China. I have to say it is cleaner than the other parts of china I have been to. Jimei is the second largest university in the Fujian region and it was built by Tan Kah Kee who originated from Jimei village. There are renovations ongoing but still a beautiful college for the college town of Jimei. Note that within this public university itself, there are a few private institutions built by Tan because he believed that there will be students who learn slower and need more time to cope up with studies. There are nice shops to eat in the village itself. What I love most are the banners and posters on the wall filled with proverbs and values in Mandarin, because Tan loved knowledge and all those are his principles in life.

JIMEI SCHOOL VILLAGE, XIAMEN, CHINA
Most overseas Chinese must visit this sight for sentimental and historical reasons. The older Chinese Generation from Singapore in particular; as the founder of this village is one of the prominent Singaporean from the Tan Clan. The village is one of the key education base in Xiamen. For non Chinese tourists, this is just another educational institute and nice building!!!
