What are the fun places in Hongdao?

Hongdao, whose real name is Yindao. In the 1960s, when the country's mountains and rivers were all red, Yin Island was renamed Red Island, and it is still used today.

The name "Yin Island" began during the period of Qin Shihuang. It is said that Qin Shihuang was on an eastward tour and heard that there was a lotus island in the center of Shaohai (the ancient name of Jiaozhou Bay). Dragon was so happy that he wanted to go and see it. However, when they arrived at Lotus Island, they saw no lotus flowers in bloom, but clouds covering the sun. Qin Shihuang Long Yan was furious and gave him a "Yin Island" in anger, which shocked Li Si to the point of sweating. It is also said that the shade of Yin Island was originally called "Yin". It was also the reason why Emperor Qin Shihuang passed through Jiaozhou Bay during his eastward patrol. He saw the island from a distance as "a green and lush place, a good place to rest in the shade", so he gave it a "Yin Island". Later generations For the convenience of writing, "Yin" was gradually changed to "Yin".
