For example: Wang Zudao, the Minister of the Ministry of War in the Song Dynasty, Lin Cun, the political counselor of the Song Dynasty, Chen Wensu, the Minister of the Ministry of Rites in the Ming Dynasty, Jiang Wenpei, a doctor in the Ministry of Household Affairs, Dong Tingqin, the Sima of Shaozhou, Dong Yanghe, a foreign minister in the Ministry of Industry, Chen Xie, the Eastern Bingdao of Qingchuan, and Ren Guangyu, a rear admiral of the Republic of China Navy.

Liu Tong, chairman of the Fujian Revolutionary Committee of the Kuomintang, member of the Standing Committee of the Fujian East Special Committee of the Communist Party of China, and Jiang Tao, Minister of Military Affairs, are all elites of Langqi Island.

Among them, viewing the sun on white clouds is the best. Legend has it that in addition to Baiyun Mountain in Langqi, places to watch the sunrise in Fuzhou include Qifeng in Gushan in the suburbs of Fuzhou and Yunju Mountain in Lianjiang County. But Gushan Mountain is too far away from the sea and is confusing; Yunju Mountain is too short and has limited vision; only Baiyun Mountain is uniquely blessed by nature. Baiyun Mountain is 300 meters high. In recent years, a new "Sun Viewing Platform" has been built 50 meters above Baiyun Temple. The platform is 8 meters high, 20 meters long and 5 meters wide. It is made of square white granite. The railings on the platform are in the shape of a saddle, like ancient battlements. There is a horizontal plaque in official script on the front of the stage: "Sun Viewing Platform". There are two gates under the plaque, like ancient city gates. There are stone steps on both wings, like a winding corridor, and there are railings on both sides, called "stairs." The "ladder" passes through the "auxiliary platform" to the "main platform". Standing on the stage facing the sea, you can have a panoramic view of hundreds of miles of mountains and rivers at the mouth of the Minjiang River. Langqi has been famous for observing the sun since ancient times. Longgu Seaside Resort on Langqi Island has beautiful scenery with mountains on its back and the sea on its back. The resort spans Yunlong Village to Dongqi Village. The north and south gate pavilions are antique and majestic. In the resort, the mountains and rivers complement each other, and the sea and sky blend together. The first thing you see is a landscape of wind-shaped sand dunes and ancient woods, covering more than 10 hectares, standing like a green barrier on the seaside. The sand dunes in the forest area are covered with green wild grasses, and densely packed ancient trees are criss-crossing the sky. The ancient banyan tree has intertwined roots. The vegetation in the forest area is well protected, with more than 30 species of plants. In midsummer, flocks of seagulls, wild ducks, egrets and seabirds inhabit here. Outside the ancient forest area, there used to be thousands of acres of tidal flats. Now it has been reclaimed and cultivated into more than 100 hectares of seawater aquaculture farm, and a water amusement park has been developed. The seawater farm is like an artificial lake, where clams, razor clams, red clams, shrimps, sea bass, mullets, jumping fish and other marine treasures are cultured. In the evening, with the setting sun shining slantingly and the sea breeze blowing, it is a unique pleasure to take a awning boat and go boating on the water. Watching the wild ducks gathering on the water, the seagulls playing, and the birds chasing each other makes people feel like they have returned to their original nature and returned to nature. There is a stone embankment blocking the sea outside the breeding farm, which is more than 3,000 meters long, like the Great Wall dominating the seaside. Outside the stone embankment is the shellfish breeding area, and beyond that is the vast East China Sea. Whenever there is an astronomical tide on the 15th day of the eighth month of the lunar calendar, the number of tourists who come here to watch the tides increases year by year. The turbid waves empty out and hit the seawall like an overwhelming force. It is thrilling. "Tidewatching on the seawall" has also become a part of the resort. scene. There is also a horse riding stable on the open ground to the right of the artificial lake. Walking around and watching the sea is the most beautiful enjoyment. Walking more than 100 meters along the hillside cement road from the racecourse, you will reach the "Hawaii Four Seasons Resort Center". It was jointly invested and built by Fuzhou Hot Spring Hotel and foreign investors. It covers an area of ????six or seven hectares, with mountains and the sea behind it. The main building is a three-story resort hotel with three stars. It is equipped with villas, sea view pavilion, tennis court, beach volleyball court, swimming pool, presidential suite, sauna, karaoke room and multi-functional conference hall. With first-class facilities and considerate services, it has become an ideal place for tourism, leisure and vacation. Following the "Four Seasons Resort Hawaii" upwards, the twists and turns, the winding cement road loops around the mountain, crosses the resort, rises and falls, and ends at Toki Beach. Villas and restaurants have sprung up on both sides of the cement road, including "Longtai Building", "Seafood Building", "Chaosheng Entertainment Center", "Postal Training Center", "Electric Industry Training Center", "Taiwan-related Training Center", etc. Fifty or sixty buildings. There is a coastline of 20 kilometers here, with tranquil beaches, jagged rocks, caves and sea rocks riddled with holes by the waves. There is a sea reef called "Shiluo Shigu". Hit the "stone gong" with a stone to make a clanging sound. There is also a stone shaped like a drum. The waves hit the stone and make a drum sound. The view here is broad, and you can see the natural landscapes such as the "Double Turtle Gate", "Five Tigers Guarding the Gate", "Golden Rooster at Dawn", and "White Monkey Town" at the Minjiang River Estuary, which are like miraculous craftsmanship.
