Exchange Island

In the Bohai Sea, 51 kilometers southwest of Wafangdian City, it is located on the bank of the Bohai Bay at the southwest end of Wafangdian City, Dalian, Liaoning Province, 0.5 kilometers from the closest point to the mainland. It is about 150 kilometers away from Dalian city and belongs to the exchange island township of Wafangdian City. There is a narrow strait between the east side of the island and the inland Kongmentou. When the tide is high, the sea water gathers here, forming a turbulent flow. "Communication" is a homonym for "twisting flow", which is how the island gets its name. Because there are wild pepper trees on the island, it is also known as Zanthoxylum bungeanum Island. Tsarist Russia once forcibly leased five islands in the late Qing Dynasty, namely Huihua Island, Fengming Island, Xizhong Island, Luotuo Island, and Pingdao. Later, several islands were artificially merged, covering an area of ??about 174 square kilometers. It is the latest virgin land developed by the exchange island township to develop tourism.
