What's the scenery like in Hailing Island, one of the top ten most beautiful islands in China?

Many tourists think of Hainan Island, Wuzhizhou, Xidao and Fenjiezhou Island for the first time. Others think of Gulangyu Island in Xiamen, Weizhou Island in Beihai and Zhoushan Islands in Zhejiang. Relatively speaking, many islands in Guangdong are ignored by tourists from other provinces, or have never been noticed or heard of, including Hailing Island in Jiangcheng District of Yangjiang City.

Hailing Island, with an area of 108.89 square kilometers, is a pearl in the South China Sea, which mainly attracts tourists from surrounding areas and the Pearl River Delta. Hailing Island, with a registered population of about 98,000, is an island integrating natural seascape, fishing village and wind village. There are farms by the sea, and local fishermen can often be seen working at sea. Their figures and fences, nets and hills form a vivid ink painting. At dusk, under the soft light and shadow, the geometric beauty is more prominent. These pictures are photographers' favorite shooting materials.

In ancient times, Hailing Island floated in the South China Sea like a conch shell. After a long period of evolution, the land rises, forming a hilly landform at sea. When I set foot on Ling Island in Shanghai, I felt salty in the wind. Every morning, the waves beat on the shore, like an impassioned symphony and a flowing oil painting. Climbing high and overlooking, the sea and sky are vast, and fishing boats come and go, which makes people feel lofty.

Hailing Island has been rated as one of the "Top Ten Most Beautiful Islands in China" by China Earth magazine for five consecutive years, and it is now a national 5A-level scenic spot. Shili Silver Beach on Hailing Island is a famous tourist attraction and the place with the most tourists. Like many seaside resorts, there are many seaside resorts and various off-road vehicles on the beach. When the weather is fine, tourists can go surfing, play jet skiing, water cycling and other entertainment projects. It is also a good place to play with sand, water and sunshine.

There is another story about the origin of the name Hailing Island. According to legend, during the Song and Yuan Dynasties, Song Jun was defeated in the naval battle of Yashan, and was forced to be exiled to the sea in the Southern Song Dynasty. Empress Yang and coach Zhang Shijie died near Hailing Island, and later generations built a mausoleum and ancestral temple at the eastern end of the island to commemorate Zhang Shijie. From this perspective, Hailing Island also means "tomb at sea". Zhapo Fishing Port of Hailing Island is an important fishing port in the south of China. On the shore, we saw many yellow houses floating on the sea. We were curious-are these houses occupied?

There are many fishing boats and rafts floating on the water-this is the epitome of the life of Dan fishermen. They live by fishing and make boats their home. In ancient times, people's status was low, and their right to live on land was exploited for a long time. They have to live at sea and in the wind and rain. In case of rainstorm and typhoon, their lives and property will be greatly threatened.

Now people have their own houses on the shore and don't need to live a wandering life at sea. A few people live on boats at night for fishing or watching boats, because fishermen usually go out to sea in the early hours of the morning.

Travel Guide: There is a bus from Guangzhou Bus Station to zhapo. The main means of transportation on the island are motorcycles and electric tricycles. Relatively speaking, it is more convenient to browse by car.
