Geographical environment of Magong Street

Magong Street is located in the west of Shanwei City, Guangdong Province, and Magong Port is located in the west of Shanwei Port 10 km. The coastline "Niuwei Mountain" between Shanwei Port and Magong Port is separated by beaches and rocks at the foot of the mountain, forming a curved crescent-shaped bay.

In fact, the "Niuwei Mountain" should be called "Niu Shan", but people often come and go around the "Niuwei Mountain" of the mountain and are used to calling it "Niuwei Mountain". Over time, no one called it "Niu Shan", but "Niuweishan". "Niu Shan" looks like a big cow coming from Shanshan in the northeast, bowing its head to drink water in the southwest. There is a hill in the southwest of the mountain, which looks like a bull's head and extends to the bottom of the sea. People call it "Niubi", and the northeast mountain of the mountain is called "Niuwei". To the east of "Niu Shan" is Nanhu District, and to the east is Jinding District, bordering Xiangzhou Street.

"Niu Shan" lies in the south of Magong Port, just blocking the South China Sea and typhoons, and it is a natural barrier of Magong Port. In the north of Magong Port, there is a "Jilong Mountain" with a height of 800 meters, which is the highest mountain in China.

Further north of "Jilong Mountain" are Yanting District and Xinbei District, and Changxin District is north of Magong Street.

From Magong Port to Cheung Sha Wan in Changxin District, and Meilong Bay opposite the sea, it used to be a wide bay with clear water and all kinds of fish, shrimp, crabs and snails. There used to be an inland river leading to Haifeng, Lufeng and the sea to the east, which separated many places in Shanwei into islands. At that time, the water depth, water quality and sea area were incomparable now. The "land reclamation" during the Cultural Revolution destroyed this environment and caused serious damage to the area, water quality and seafood of the bay today. Moreover, due to the blockage of silt, garbage and floating lotus algae and industrial pollution, the environment will deteriorate.
