Dongtou Islands Peninsula Project

Wenzhou (Dongtou) Peninsula Project, covering water conservancy, reclamation, transportation, ports and other construction projects, mainly connects Dongtou Island with Wenzhou urban area through land in the form of bridges, seawalls and land reclamation. It is not only a landmark building in Wenzhou from a coastal city to a famous coastal landscape and cultural city, but also a tourist scenic spot. Wenzhou (Dongtou) Peninsula Project consists of five "components": Hannah Quinlivan Bridge, Hannah Quinlivan Connecting Highway, Shoal Project, Dongtou Five Island Connecting Project and Zhuangyuan 'ao Deepwater Port Area. Five-island connection refers to the construction of seven bridges between Dongtou Island, Sanpan Island, Huagang Island, Zhuangyuan 'ao Island, Niyu Island and three uninhabited islands (actually, seven bridges connect eight islands) to realize island connection in the region. Then it connects with Wenzhou, making Dongtou a peninsula. The project connecting the five islands started at 1996 and ended at 12, and was completed in May 2002. It took six and a half years with a total investment of 300 million yuan. The completion of this project not only doubled the area of Dongtou Island. 73% of the county's population directly benefited, which fundamentally solved the difficulties of inter-island transportation and promoted the comprehensive development of island resources. The connection of the five islands embodies the spirit of "small counties do great things" 1996 When the bridge was built, the fiscal revenue of the county in that year was only 36.6 million yuan, which was only a drop in the bucket for the investment needed to build the bridge. However, the islanders waited, the county party Committee made decisions, the people made major decisions, the government made clever plans, the CPPCC made suggestions, the masses enthusiastically donated money, and the provinces and cities strongly supported them. In those years, the upsurge of donating money to build bridges in the county became higher and higher. Government cadres donated one month's salary every year for three consecutive years; Some old people donate wedding gold rings that have been treasured for many years; Dongtou young entrepreneurs, husband and wife returned home thousands of miles, bidding 300 thousand; A foreign old comrade-in-arms who participated in the liberation of Dongtou donated money and sent a letter, which wrote: "Money is dripping more than the sea. Don't look up my name, just wait for the island and the land to connect earlier, take my children and grandchildren directly to the car, and then go back to the island to enjoy the beautiful scenery. " With the joint efforts of everyone, this project has finally been completed. The connection of the five islands is not only a traffic project, but also an open-air exhibition hall of the sea bridge, which is a beautiful landscape. The structures and bridge types of these seven bridges have their own characteristics, which give people beautiful enjoyment from a distance or from a close distance. Therefore, the completed bridge soon became a tourist hotline. From Dongtou to Wenzhou, this is the first bridge connecting the five islands. Sanpan Bridge connects Dongtouben Island and Sanpan Island, with a length of 762 meters and a width of 9.5 meters (the width of seven bridges is the same, and the width will not be introduced after the other six bridges). The main span of the bridge is a continuous beam and the approach bridge is a simply supported beam bridge. The pier is drilled to a depth of 87 meters, and the successful construction of bored piles by impact drilling is the first case in China. In addition, it is worth introducing that high-quality clay mud is needed to protect the wall when drilling the pier of Sanpan Bridge. In order to ensure the quality, the engineering headquarters and the construction unit have tried many times with different clay, but they are not ideal. Finally, through repeated comparison, clay was shipped from Jingdezhen, Jiangxi Province not far from Wan Li, which ensured the success of the construction. It can be seen that the engineering headquarters is highly responsible for this moral and political project of "tightening belts and benefiting the next generation".

On both sides of Sanpan Bridge are cage culture areas, and colorful houses built on cages are temporary residences for raising people's production and life. When the boat crosses the waves, the house moves with the waves, so there is a special mood. The ocean is a blue land for nurturing people, and cultivating the ocean for animal husbandry and fishing is a bright spot in the marine economy. The Huagang Bridge connecting Zhongyu Island and Huagang Island has a total length of 150m. It is a half-through steel tube arch structure with a flexible span of 1, 4 1m, which is the longest span among similar sea-crossing bridges in Zhejiang Province. Although the bridge is not long, it is difficult to construct, and the construction period is one and a half years.

The arch of the steel pipe is like a rainbow, so many tourists and friends affectionately call Huagang Bridge Rainbow Bridge, which is a good place for tourists to take photos and shoot their weddings. There is a well-preserved fishing village in Huagang Village of Huagang Island. Everyone must have noticed that most of the old houses in the fishing village are stone walls to the top, covered with gray tiles and covered with pebbles. This is because the wind is strong on the island, and taking measures to prevent tiles from flying away is one of the characteristics of old buildings in fishing villages. Shenmen bridge This bridge connects Zhuangyuan Island and Shenmen Mountain Island. The number one scholar, Ao Dao, is a township organization called Jue Yuan Township. Shenmen Bridge is a reinforced concrete box arch bridge with a length of 2 13m and a main span of 160m. It is the largest bridge of its kind in China at present, and the weight of the seven-section suspension cable installation unit ranks first in China. This bridge is the earliest of the seven bridges, which took a year and a half.

Shenmen is the main sea passage from Dongtou to Wenzhou. Standing on the bridge, you can see the high-speed speedboat galloping under the bridge from far and near, and the white spray aroused is very beautiful with the blue sea, blue sky and green trees. The rocks here are very unique, and the colors are latosolic red, silvery blue and grayish black. Why do rocks in the same place have different colors? There is a legend here.

Legend has it that the land Lord is in charge of gold and silver wealth. Every year on the sixth day of the sixth lunar month, he will take out the gold and silver in the treasure house to bask in the sun. Once, he chose Pearl Reef to bask in gold and silver, and was picked up by two fishermen's daughters, Sister-in-law Aaron and Ahua. The earth god said, "I have been basking in gold and silver for 3 thousand years, and no one has ever touched me." Today you are destined to take as much as you want. " Sister-in-law Lun was so happy that she took gold and silver and put a basket in her pocket. It was not enough, so she hurried home to get a laundry list. Ahua helped the landlord count the gold and silver, and finally only took a small ingot of silver. By the time Aaron's sister-in-law came with a lot of laundry lists, the landlord and the gold and silver had already disappeared. When she got home, the big bag of gold and silver she had taken turned into stone, and there was a note in the middle: "Because people were too greedy, gold turned into stone eggs." From then on, where the Pearl Reef was tanned, the pebbles became reddish; Where the silver is dried, it turns silver blue; Those who have not been exposed to gold and silver remain gray-black.

Legends are legends after all. The sea pebbles of Pearl Reef all contain seasonable, which will be exposed in time after being washed by wind and waves, and will reflect pearl-like luster under certain circumstances; At the same time, there used to be a large number of pearl snails on the reef, and the shell cover of pearl snails was shaped like pearls, so it was called "Pearl Reef".

The reef shape of Pearl Reef has its own characteristics, and there are also some scenic spots such as Guanyin lion training, lion holding hydrangea, Gui Ling listening to scriptures, frogs coming out of the water, camels wading on the beach, Lu Yan, baby elephant being born and so on. Among them, "Guanyin training lions" is the most prominent landscape on Pearl Reef. There is another legend in this story. According to legend, Master Guanyin followed the instructions of the Tathagata and went north from the South China Sea to choose the pure land of preaching and teaching. First of all, we arrived at Dongtou, which is inaccessible and haunted by wild animals. So Guanyin didn't like it, so she touched the lion, headed by all the animals, from Xiandie Rock to Daqu Island, and then from Daqu Island to Putuo. Now, there are still her footprints on Xiandie Rock. Daqu Island also has her footprints, as well as the sea-watching stone Buddha and the Thousand Buddha Cliff. Xiandie Rock Scenic Area is located 2.7 kilometers southeast of Dongtou Island, with an area of about 1.7 1 square kilometer. It consists of Pearl Reef, Xiandie Rock, bathing beach, Nanpaotai Mountain, etc. There is also a national-level Dongtou central fishing port, with dynamic and static complementarity, complementary mountains and seas, bold and dangerous, harmonious and harmonious.

Xiandie Rock is a group of rocks with different shapes, including immortal stone, immortals wearing hats, Guanyin worship, Chinese Zodiac, Guanyin lion tamer, toad seeking immortality, master and apprentice, fairy with golden boy, Jiangjun Rock, Xiang Lei Valley, Sunshine Rock and other strange stones. The word "Xiandie Rock" is engraved on the towering cliff, which is vigorous and powerful. Professor Hong from China Academy of Fine Arts was invited to create more than 30 rock sculptures with the theme of "Buddha culture" in Xiandie Rock Scenic Area, forming a landscape group of Guanxiu 16 arhats, which gathered many artists such as Wu Changshuo.

Seen from a distance at the foot of the mountain, this immortal rock is not high, but: "The mountain is not high, and the immortal is famous." Everyone looks at its rocks. They are layered on top of each other. Strangely, the small stone is actually standing against the big stone, but it is very stable. There are many pirate typhoons, and for thousands of years, no matter how big the typhoon is, it has no effect on it. Of course, this kind of overlapping method is not something that mortals can do. Only immortals have this ability, so they are called "immortals stacking stones". So, how did the gods fold?

Legend has it that a long time ago, there was a deep cave in Dong 'ao Mountain, which contained a mullet essence that had been cultivated for thousands of years. This monster often makes waves and harms people. This alarmed the spirits and impatiens in the sky. They want to build a phoenix gate in Aokou to collect eel essence and then kill the people. They found Nu Wa Niangniang, asked for a few pieces of lingshi left by her mending the sky in those days, and came to Dong 'ao Port. Unwilling to yield, the mullet eel essence fought to the death with the two great immortals before the completion of the Phoenix Gate. After numerous rounds of contests, the mullet eel essence was subdued under the Phoenix Gate. Thousands of years have passed, and the two great immortals died early, but the Phoenix Gate stayed on earth. Where is it? I think tourists have guessed that it is Xiandie Rock by now. The lingshi of Xiandie Rock has absorbed the essence of the sun and the moon for thousands of years and is immortal. It is said that as long as you are sincere and have good opportunities, you can step into heaven from here. Therefore, this immortal rock is also called Dengtian Rock.

There are many scenic spots in Xiandie Rock, such as the sea and the sky alone, the drum valley, the eagle independence, the toad trying to be immortal, the immortal wearing a hat, the zodiac, the Buddhist scriptures, the nail island, the sixteen arhats and so on. Everyone must be surprised to hear this. I often hear about eighteen arhats. Why are there only sixteen arhats here? Sixteen arhats were made by Guan Xiu, a famous monk of the Five Dynasties. Guan Xiu, a native of Lanxi, Zhejiang Province, lived more than 1 100 years ago. He became a monk at the age of seven and was a famous painter and poet. His elaborate paintings of sixteen arhats, with strange bones and different postures, are very vivid, which are valued and collected by the Ming and Qing palaces and have high artistic value. Now we're going up Nanpaotai Mountain along Panshan Highway. Nanpaotai Mountain is one of the four blocks in Xiandieyan Scenic Area. Located in the southeast of Dongtou Island, this mountain is one of the landing points from the sea. Forts have been built in past dynasties to prevent invasion, so it is called Nanpao Mountain. Because of the dangerous location, the radar company and artillery company of the People's Liberation Army were stationed here in the 1950s and 1960s, and now the sentry posts, gun racks and tunnels still exist. Besides these, there are many scenic spots such as soldier pavilion, Luding Bridge on the sea, Qi Jiguang statue, Diaoyutai and so on. Diaoyutai is called "Diaoyutai" because it is as flat as a platform, and people can sit and fish. )

Dasha 'ao Beach is located 2.7 kilometers southeast of Dongtou District, a provincial key scenic spot, and is an important destination of Wenzhou's "Mountain, River and Sea" Golden Triangle tourist route. Here, the golden sands and blue waves, the strange rocks contrast with the blue sky and white clouds, and it is the most beautiful beach in Dongtou, also known as the "Golden Beach". Its shape is dustpan-shaped, and its northeast faces the sea. At low tide, the beach is bare, the slope is gentle, the sea surface is open and the sea water is clear. The sand is pure iron plate sand, hard and delicate, and there is no obvious trace when stepping on it. The rock monsters that half surround the bathing beach are "seal stone", "eagle catching chicken" and "tiger lying on the hill". The upper part of the bath is covered with cobblestone belts; It is an ideal swimming pool and training base for windsurfing and kayaking. Besides, you can choose shells and sketches.

In addition, it is equipped with karaoke hall, outdoor dance floor, restaurant and European villa group, which is the best place for sightseeing, fishing, surfing and summer vacation. Wanghailou is 227 meters above sea level. The whole scenic spot covers an area of 140.9 mu, and the main building is 2700 square meters, with three floors bright and five floors dark, 35.4 meters high and facing south. It is the highest point of Dongtou Island, the first scenic spot of Dongtou tourism, and has a long history of 1500 years. There are viewing corridors on the third and fifth floors of the building.

At the same time, Wanghailou is also the window of Dongtou history and culture. Here, you can have a panoramic view of the scenic spot in Dongtou, and you can see the beauty of the sea and the panorama of Dongtou Islands. Dongtou Fishing Port and Banping Mountain are in the south, the new old city is in the east, seven sea-crossing bridges are in the west, and the sea and islands are in the north. Its floor distribution is as follows: the first floor: the relief display of history and culture, natural scenery and the total scale of the city; Second floor: fishing boat model museum; The third floor: the fishing area life customs museum; Fourth floor: Fishery production customs hall. Banpingshan Scenic Area is located 3 kilometers south of Dongtou District and 500 meters away from Dongtou Wharf. Folk songs say "Half Pingshan, half Pingshan, half in Taiwan Province Province, half in mainland China", and this is the truth in mainland China.

The scenic spot covers an area of 0.95 square kilometers, and the cliffs along the eastern coast are like knives and axes, and the mountains are half carved and half erected. Thousands of meters of natural rock carving gallery on the sea is a must in China, and it is known as "above the sea folds in China". In the east of the scenic spot, there are four vivid screens and eighteen scenes, such as windward screen, red elephant screen, ancient wave screen, peacock screen, fishing boat, golden seal, shrimp rock and Wulong Tenghai. Boating and watching the waves, listening to the waves and enjoying the scenery are amazing. The Great Salon Beach in the west of the scenic spot is long and narrow, with fine sand and pure color. It can pick up snails and shellfish, catch seafood, play and surf, and it is full of fun. Therefore, a poem says: "Dan floats between clear water and white clouds, and the waves are light and gulls are idle." At first glance, Shaping can be painted, and poetry is drunk. "
