Dong Xing Port
Bbinger1031Boundary monuments, Ho Chi Minh Pavilion, national gate... several iconic buildings are easy to find, and the rest is shopping. Things are indeed cheap, but they can all be bought online.
The towering national gate stands on the bank of the Beilun River, solemn and majestic, and the five-star red flag flies high to declare sovereignty. Just 100 meters away from the port is Mong Cai, Vietnam, and the China-Vietnam Friendship Bridge connects the two countries. There is a No. 5 boundary monument of the Qing Dynasty by the river, with the words "Qinzhou Boundary of the Qing Dynasty" engraved in the middle of the monument. Now it is no longer a real boundary monument, standing on the border line and becoming a cultural relic. The prosperity of border trade has brought prosperity to the city. Every street and every building looks very new, and there are no relics of the ancient city at all. There are shops on both sides of the street, and there are a variety of specialties. We strolled on the street, and there were endless pedestrians. Green canvas hats, pointed white hats... You can appreciate the culture and customs of foreign countries without leaving the country. Of course, I prefer the streets in the morning. Without the hustle and bustle, it has returned to its original appearance.
Wanwei Golden Beach
山山在穷游When you came to Bailang Beach, in fact, you have come to Wanwei Golden Beach. The area here is still quite large. From this to that end, I feel the beauty of the beach and feel the changes of the beach. I saw a lot of small crabs crawling on it. I also saw a small dead fish lying on top of it, and heard local fishermen say that at night they would go to the other end of the beach to catch squid, which is my favorite activity
Leshan Ancient Fishing Village
不不可触碰撞的鱼The ancient fishing village of Lushan is located in the southeast of Qisha Peninsula of Fangchenggang City, about 10 kilometers away from Qisha Town, about 25 kilometers away from the administrative center of Fangchenggang City, and is a peninsula village with an area of about 480 mu, with a shallow sea beach in front of the village of dozens of square kilometers. The coastal reefs of Lushan Ancient Fishing Village are strange, and they have different postures due to the long-term attack of the waves, forming a natural landscape line with high ornamental value. The bay is separated from Sanniang Bay in Qinzhou. Because the bay is not polluted, dolphins are often infested. Before and after the summer solstice, due to heavy rainfall and strong astronomical tides, the ancient fishing village of Lushan will have astronomical tide scene. The annual "Dancing with the Waves" folk tide festival held temporarily during the astronomical tide, the huge waves attract many tourists to watch the tide and travel. The source of income of the villagers is mainly to breed and fish for sea products such as sandworms, oysters, green crabs, Wenha, prawns. The ancient fishing village of Lushan has more than 70 households and more than 300 people, most of them Li surnamed. In 1448, the Li clan of Central Plains migrated to settle here. The village is quiet, the reef is magical, and the Ganglou Weihe has a deep historical and cultural heritage. It is a fishing village tribe with a long history in Beibu Gulf. It is now a famous tourist scenic spot in Fangchenggang City, and is one of the rare natural tide watching points in Beibu Gulf.
Butterfly Island Paradise Beach
秒秒懂风景Butterfly Island Paradise Beach is an uninhabited island, one of the best beaches in Guangxi, and the other is Baisha Bay next to it. But the sand is a bit thicker than the fine white of Beihai Silver Beach. The weather is clear and the water is clear, but the beach environment is average.
Fangchenggang Guaishi (Strange Stones) Beach
小小贝的异想世界The same strange stone beach as Weizhou Island, only the parking fee can be unlocked, compared to Weizhou Island, it is a ferry ticket and an island fee, the price is not too high! The scenery is beautiful when the weather is good! Taking pictures is super filming! And the sea is very clear and clean! It is the legendary glass sea!
Bailang Beach
山山在穷游There are quite a few Bailang Beaches by the sea in China. It is a beach I like more. The main reason may be because of the quietness here and the small number of people here. It is crowded during the day and weekend, but when you choose to stay here for one night, enjoy the sunrise and sunset of the entire beach and the work of the locals, you will find that this is the best beach for you
Shiwan Great Mountain National Forest Park
穿穿白衬衣的薄荷星Shiwandashan Butou Hot Spring, hidden in the Little Santorini of Fangchenggang, is so beautiful!
There is also a Butou Hot Spring not far from Shiwandashan Forest Park. If you come here, you must remember to check in! When I first met Butou Hot Spring, its beautiful blue waterfall even gave me a romantic feeling of being in Santorini~ Butou Hot Spring is located 5 kilometers north of Shangsi County, Fangchenggang City. It is located in a secluded valley, surrounded by mountains on three sides, with green forests, high vegetation coverage, and high concentration of negative oxygen ions.
The spring water of Butou Hot Spring gushes out from the caves beside the ditch. The hot spring flow is 800 tons/day and the water temperature is 42℃. In 1988, it was confirmed by the national review and appraisal that the content of strontium and metasilicic acid is close to the national standard, the sodium content is low and the free carbon dioxide content is high; at the same time, the temperature and ammonia indicators meet the medical mineral water standards. The sulfur content of Butou Hot Spring is 1.5 mg/L, and the water is rich in zinc, manganese, iron and other minerals that are beneficial to the human body. It is a veritable medicinal spring.

High cost-effectiveness, drinkable blue spring
☑️The blue spring water of Butou Hot Spring is drinkable, which is almost unheard of in other hot springs! The ticket is 60 yuan, all-inclusive, and there are no other consumption items after entering. Compared with many scenic spots that charge one or two hundred or even three or five hundred yuan for hot spring tickets, Butou Hot Spring is more cost-effective than the sky~

☑️Blue hot spring waterfall, as if you are in Santorini
The most outstanding part of Butou Hot Spring is the hot spring waterfall at the end of the right side. Just keep going straight to the right and you can get there. The original picture has a scenic spot navigation map, which can be easily found! The cascading waterfalls are really beautiful, like terraces, and the aerial view is even more amazing. The blue hot springs gurgle out, which is pleasing to the eyes and refreshing, and the Mediterranean style is unobstructed~

☑️Magic ice houses, RVs and villas, with various accommodation conditions
There are quite a lot of accommodation options at Butou Hot Springs, including magic ice houses, RVs, and small wooden houses outside the scenic area. Staying here is also a good choice! ⚠️There are many trees and flowers in the mountains, and there are many and poisonous mosquitoes. Be sure to do a good job of mosquito repellent, and don't forget the floral water and mosquito coils~

In addition, there is also a 🌈Rainbow Road in Butou Hot Springs, which is super beautiful for taking pictures! The open-air hot spring pool just after entering the scenic area also has a Balinese feel when taking photos~

Jiangshan Bandao
大大眼世界Every summer, I always like to go to the beach. If you let me recommend the beach, I think the beach in Fangchenggang is very quiet and very distinctive. Bailang Beach is one of them. Although the sea here may not be as clear and blue as Sanya or Hainan, it is very quiet here, and when the sea fades, there are many cute little crabs on the beach, which is a good place for you to take your children to play.
Yuenan Street
郭郭润龙浪迹天涯20230615 afternoon:
1. "National Gate Three Streets" is located in the 4A scenic spot "Dongxing National Gate". Dongxing National Gate is a land port connecting Fangchenggang City, Guangxi Province and Mong Cai, Vietnam. It was established in 1958 and is an important trading port between China and Vietnam. It has more than 3 million people entering and leaving the country each year, ranking third among all land ports in the country and first in Guangxi Province. It was once used as an export channel for aid to Vietnam. It was closed in 1978 due to the Sino-Vietnamese self-defense counterattack and reopened in 1994. Chinese and Vietnamese residents traveled between China and Vietnam through the "Sino-Vietnamese Friendship Bridge" across the Beilun River. The center line of the Beilun River is the border between the two countries.
① Address: No. 63, Zhongshan Road, Dongxing City, Fangchenggang City, Guangxi Province.
② Transportation: Direct bus, but you have to walk 1.1 kilometers after getting off. It is easy to park by car.
③ Peak season: None.
④ Time: 2 hours.
2. Customs clearance precautions:
① You cannot take photos when entering the port indoors.
② Do not help strangers to carry things through customs: if something goes wrong, it will be considered smuggling at the least, and if there are drugs in it, the consequences will be disastrous.
③ Prohibited items: animals, plants, fruits, seeds, audio tapes, video tapes, etc. These are the most easily neglected. I won’t mention other well-known contraband.
④ When passing through customs, put down the new version of your passport at the first gate (the new version of the passport has a camera symbol under the "passport" on the cover) for scanning, and the countdown is 10 seconds. Go to the manual channel with the old version of your passport; scan your face at the second gate.
⑤ There is a very small probability that some people will be randomly checked for baggage inspection.
3. The Sino-Vietnamese Friendship Bridge is located between the Chinese port and the Vietnamese port. It was built in the 24th year of the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty (1898). It is an iron bridge jointly built by China and France, making the Dongxing Port a prosperous place for business. After the iron bridge was scrapped in 1957, it was rebuilt into a stone bridge the following year and named "Beilun River Bridge". It is 111 meters long. In 1960, when Tao Zhu, then the first secretary of the Guangdong Provincial Party Committee, inspected the bridge, he changed the name of the bridge to its current name and inscribed the name of the bridge. The two words "Friendship" added reflected my country's good expectations for Sino-Vietnamese relations. However, things did not go as planned. During the Sino-Vietnamese self-defense counterattack in 1978, the Vietnamese side blew up the bridge. After the restoration of diplomatic relations between China and Vietnam in 1992, the bridge was rebuilt with funds from China. Residents walking on the Friendship Bridge are "out of the country" for China and "not in" for Vietnam. Their identities at this time are very strange.
4. The three national gate streets refer to the three port pedestrian streets, Jianshe Street, Mulan Street, and Diandian Street. Many buildings on the streets were built during the Republic of China period, and there are both Chinese and Vietnamese goods in the shops.
Dong Xing Guo Men Scenic Area
山山在穷游Dongxing National Gate Scenic Area is a very large scenic spot. There are national gates, many boundary monuments, and some ancient buildings left at that time. When we come here, we can visit the park and remember the martyrs. It is a good border city attraction. The most important thing is that these things are free.
