Zhuhai Wailingding Island - Xiaojiabiyu is lovely

Wailingding Island, located in the southeast of Xiangzhou, Zhuhai, is like a piece of Xiaojiabiyu, with its strange rocks, beautiful water, elegant and tranquil style Be unique. On a clear day, you can see Hong Kong, Guishan and other islands and the entire sea surface along the islands. It is the only island from which you can see the center of Hong Kong.

Wailingding Island

Compared with other outlying islands in Zhuhai, Wailingding Island has not yet undergone large-scale commercial development, so it seems relatively primitive and does not have that noisy feeling. Most of the residents on the island are aborigines who have lived here for generations. Most of them make a living by fishing or engaging in small business. They live and work in peace and contentment without any disputes with the world. Everything seems to be very harmonious.

Looking at Hong Kong

The most comfortable time on the island is in the evening, when the sun is about to set and the light is very soft. It is very pleasant to walk along the seaside. things. The marine recreation projects here are not as rich as those on mature islands such as Dongao Island. Most people basically just swim offshore and play beach football and volleyball on the beach. Since there are not many people, the beach still feels very leisurely. The most commendable thing is that the sea quality here is not turbid at all, and the water is much clearer than other islands. So whether it's swimming or taking a leisurely walk on the beach, it feels really good.

Living area on the island

There is Lingding Peak on Wailingding Island. The mountains are majestic and beautiful, with rugged rocks and beautiful scenery. The next morning, we climbed up to Lingding Peak to enjoy the beautiful view of "Lingding Peak Sunrise". Standing on the mountainside and looking from a distance, the entire Wanshan Islands are like a handful of pearls scattered on the Lingding Ocean.

The endless sea

When you reach the peak of 311.8 meters above sea level, you can see that the scenery is different. At this time, you can see most of the islands in Lingding Ocean, just like a chess game The chess games are scattered on the chessboard, and the scenery is quite spectacular. This is the beauty of the "Wanshan Chess Game".

At about 6:30, a red sun rose from the sea. In an instant, the sea and the mountain peaks were illuminated, and the entire Wailingding Island was shrouded in gold. At this time, the fog gradually dissipated. Looking to the northeast, one can actually see the bustling scenery of Hong Kong. Victoria Peak, Aberdeen, Lantau Island, Lamma Island, Cheung Chau Island, Tsing Ma Bridge, etc. are all in sight. This feeling This scene makes people feel relaxed and happy.

Weihai Chengshantou - the first place in China to see the sunrise over the sea

Chengshantou, also known as Chengshanjiao, also known as "the end of the sky", is located in Longxudao Town, Rongcheng City, Shandong Province , named after it is located at the easternmost end of the Chengshan Mountains.

Chengshantou

Chengshantou is surrounded by the sea on three sides and land on one side. It faces South Korea across the sea, only 94 nautical miles away. It is the first place to see the sunrise over the sea. It has been regarded as a tourist attraction since ancient times. It is known as "the place where the sun rises", called "Chaowu" in the Spring and Autumn Period, and is known as "China's Cape of Good Hope".

Sights not to be missed in Chengshantou:

First, the sunrise: When you arrive at Chengshantou, the first place in China to see the sunrise over the sea, it seems a bit unreasonable not to watch the sunrise.

The easternmost part of the motherland

The second is the waves: the mountains head straight into the sea, the mountain walls near the sea are cut, the waves are rolling under the cliff, the water is rapid, and it withstands strong winds, big waves and storm surges all year round. The maximum wave in the sea area is more than 7 meters high.

Weirdly shaped stones

The third is the unique sea erosion landform: Chengtou Mountain has a rare typical sand spit in China, and the unique sea stacks, sea caves and other sea erosion landforms on Hailu Island , people have to admire the greatness of nature.

The fourth is to look for traces of the First Emperor: the Shihuang Temple in Chengshantou was built on the basis of Qin Shihuang’s palace. Of course, in addition to the cultural relics left by Qin Shihuang, the ancestors of other dynasties also left here This is a testament to my visit here.

Mighty sculptures

Fujian Chongwu Coast - one of the most beautiful coastlines

Chongwu Coast is known as one of the "eight most beautiful coastlines in China", connecting Banyue Bay, Xisha Bay, Qingshan Bay and other places.

Stranded Ship

On one side of the coast is the most complete existing granite coastal stone city in China - the ancient city of Chongwu. A Hui'an girl with a heavy load and a soft body but a strong heart. (Of course, this refers to the Hui'an women in the past. It is unknown whether the women of today's new society who were born and raised here are like this.)

Chongwu Coast

In On the 28.8-kilometer-long winding coastline, there are 12 sandy bays with fine sand, charming and beautiful scenery, and four large rock groups with overlapping peaks and rocks.

Dongji Island

Qingbang must not be missed. The island has now declined, leaving behind many fishermen’s stone houses known as the Potala Palace on the sea, which are both spectacular and sad. We chartered a boat to the Zephyr Bay Pier. There is a gravel beach next to the pier where you can swim, but there is no beach and it is all small stones. You have to at least wear slippers and walk to the beach before entering the water. The shallow water area is very short, so it is strongly recommended to wear life jackets and other protective equipment before swimming. Follow the main road past the swimming area and then take a path up the mountain. When you reach the top, walk to the right. You can go down to the village and admire the fishermen's stone houses. Then continue walking through the village and up the mountain. After reaching a tourist stop sign, you can continue forward to Xifeng. Bay, so you don’t have to go back, but there is no road in this section after passing the sign and there are many weeds, so please follow your ability.

The hard-working Hui'an women

Climb up the Chongwu Tower and look across the vast mist, where gulls and herons gather, and fishing sails compete. Let’s travel together on a crane.”

Fishermen working on the sea

According to records: "In the sea of ??Chongwu, in the second and third months of spring, there are often mirages, like pavilions, people and horses, in thousands of shapes, as if in the smoke and clouds , after a long time they disperse." This is a natural phenomenon of refraction like the mirage in Penglai Pavilion in Shandong. This phenomenon is even more elusive because it occurs so rarely.

Sanya Coconut Island - an undeveloped primitive island

Coconut Island is located at the intersection of the east and west rivers of Tengqiao, Haitang Bay Town, Sanya. It is naturally formed by 17 islands, with a total area of Covering 4,978 acres, blue sky, oasis, clear water and silver beaches form a beautiful picture of the archipelago. Coconut Island is the estuary of Tengqiao's east and west rivers. It has a unique water system ecology and is one of the islands with the most original natural landscape preserved in Hainan.

Coconut Island

The only means of transportation to the island is by boat. Take a boat to Coconut Island. The long coconut groves are spread out in the harbor like a picture scroll. From a distance, the island is independent. Standing in the middle of the water, the large coconut groves on the island are sleeping silently and lushly, just like those on the seaside. Jadeite, surrounded by calm rivers, makes it hard to believe that there is a raging sea just one kilometer away. The indigo-colored mountains in the distance are full of freshness, and the slightly salty air reveals the tranquility of no one. The clear blue river water, the sky full of colorful clouds and the silvery beach form a beautiful and refined picture, making people feel like the sea and sky are vast, like a fairyland on earth.

Coconut Rice

When you set foot on Coconut Island, perhaps it is because there are few people there. There is no official road on the island, and you will really get lost if you are not careful.

Various shrubs and ferns grow on the island, showing off its wild vitality. Especially the tens of thousands of coconut trees on the island, all pointing straight to the sky in their usual posture, making people have to look up. Because the island is covered with coconuts, people call it Coconut Island.

Zhoushan Dongji Island - a wonder in the East China Sea

There are Antarctica and the North Pole in the world, and there is also a bright pearl inlaid in the East China Sea - located in Zhoushan Islands, Zhejiang On the easternmost side of Dongji, "Dongji Island" is just a general term, not the name of a specific island. In fact, it consists of 4 inhabited islands and N small islands. Among them, Miaozi Lake, Qingbang, Huangxing and Dongfushan are the four inhabited islands. They are the islands with the most typical sea and mountain scenery and fishermen's customs among the Zhoushan Islands.

Beautiful seaside

The main scenery of Dongji is Miaozi Lake, Qingbang, and Dongfu Mountain. Among them, Miaozi Lake Island is the headquarters of Dongji Town ***. This kind of travel package is relatively good, and it is the first stop for traveling to East Antarctic

The sea and sky are blue, and there are scenery everywhere. Here are just a few routes that are not easy to find:

< p> Most tourists will stay on Miaozi Lake Island. To watch the sunrise, you can go up the Fisherman Commercial Street ramp and pass the Dongji History Museum to reach the hillside. There is a signal transmitting tower on the right hand side of the mountain road and Dongji Pavilion on the left. It is the best viewing point. The perspective from the big rock a little further down after passing the pavilion is also good. Generally, you can arrive around five o'clock, and allow at least twenty minutes for the journey.

A lighthouse that has stood for many years

There is a Christian church at the far west of Miaozi Lake Fishing Port. From the church yard, you can see a cave, which is the abandoned ammunition depot mentioned in the previous photo. , there are many reefs after passing the cave, which is also the best spot to take pictures of the sunset. But since there is no road, you must pay attention to safety when walking on the reef.

Dongfu Mountain is the easternmost inhabited island in the East Pole. 12 nautical miles east of the island is the high seas. It is also the island where the first ray of dawn shines in my country. However, the mountain is high and steep, which is very time-consuming and physical. Pay attention to reasonable arrangements.

Recommendations for visiting Changdao:

1. Follow the fishermen out to sea: the fishermen’s fishing boats are not passenger ships or cruise ships. On the endless sea, the small fishing boats are no matter how strong the wind or the rain. , I can think of the hard work of the fishermen. However, after hard work, there must be a reward. The big fishing net cast down will catch a lot of treasures. The joy is beyond words.

Soaring Seagulls

2. Bird watching on Ten Thousand Birds Island: How can you not go to Changdao and not see the sight of thousands of birds flying together! Wandiao Island is definitely the best place to experience close contact with seabirds. You can go there by taking a passenger boat out from the pier.

3. Travel around the island by bicycle: Changdao is not big, but it is a bit tiring to walk. Wouldn’t it be better if you ride a bicycle and freely travel around the north and south of Changdao to experience different customs.

Beautiful coast

4. Go to the night market food stalls: As the saying goes, those who are near the water come first, the moon comes first. This Long Island is surrounded by the sea, and there are more seafood than you can imagine. You can’t go to the night market to eat some. Food stalls, then this trip is in vain. Of course, there are also various trinkets made of pearls, shells, etc., which are also very cute.

5. Find a beach to camp on: Whether you want to watch the sunrise on the sea or listen to the sound of waves, it is very necessary to stay at the beach for a night.

Coconut trees are everywhere

Most of the coconut trees on the island are dozens or hundreds of years old. Coconut fruits are hanging on the trees all year round. There are golden "gold coconuts", "red coconuts" with blushing faces, and "green coconuts" that are as green as gems. Passing through the largest island of Coconut Island - more than 1,000 acres of vast coconut groves, a long and narrow beach as white as silver divides the translucent blue harbor into two. These are two completely different worlds. On one side is the tranquil world. The virgin river port, with the surging ocean on one side, makes people marvel at the magic of nature's creations. Walking around to the end of the beach is the entrance to the sea. Looking from a distance, it's endless. I don't know where is the horizon and where is the end?

Simple cabin

As we get closer and closer to the mouth of the sea, the water gradually becomes clearer, from green to dark blue, and finally we can see the sand belt and the sea. When the Tengqiao River rushes into the sea, it forms a very beautiful sand belt. The slender and charming arc makes people feel infinitely graceful. Stepping onto the beach, the sand is very soft, pristine, clean and white.

The beach is very long, soft and soft, the clear blue water and the blue-green mountains in the distance, coupled with the warm sea breeze and fresh air, make you feel like you are in paradise at this moment, and people can't help but fall into its arms.

Yantai Changdao - Pearl of the Sea

Changdao is located in Shandong Province, with Penglai to the south, Liaodong to the north, Beijing and Tianjin to the west, and Japan and South Korea to the east. It consists of 32 islands. When viewed from the air, it looks like a string of pearls sprinkled on blue silk. She was also the hometown of the Eight Immortals and a blessed place where ancient emperors sought immortality.

Changdao, a long island

She has the Pearl Crescent Bay of Long Beach, the Wanniao Island with silver feathers covering the sun, the sister reefs where gulls play in the waves, and the largest and earliest built in the north. Mazu Temple, and the fishermen’s chants that have been going on for thousands of years.

Changdao is called Changdao because it is narrow from east to west and long from north to south. It looks thin and long when viewed from a high altitude, so it is called Changdao. Some people say that Emperor Qin and Emperor Wu of Han thought that they could live forever by landing on this island, so they named it the Island of Immortality, or Changdao.

Changdao has many islands and is surrounded by the sea. The only mode of transportation to the outside world is by boat. Passenger ships will be suspended when the weather is bad. People here have long been accustomed to the relatively single foreign exchange. A peaceful and tranquil life. The pace here is so slow that you have to stop to appreciate its otherworldly charm.

Strange rocks growing on the sea

On Changdao, you can drop everything and truly become a fisherman. Of course, you can also enjoy the slow life of the sun and beach.
