Xiapu

The maritime advantages of Xiapu are particularly outstanding. The coastline here is hundreds of kilometers long with copious harbors. Numerous islands spread over the area, offering small- and large-island resources. This is also a fine place for photography. Photography enthusiasts from around the country gather here year-round to capture the beach’s scenic beauty. Here, you can enjoy a sunrise or sunset on the beach and stroll among the seafood stands in the county city at night. Sampling the wide variety of local seafood is also extremely satisfying.

The Beiqi Wetlands are as beautiful as a painting, attracting countless photography enthusiasts. The Xiapu Wetlands have very beautiful scenery and is highly esteemed as one of twenty-two photography meccas. Every year, over 200,000 photography enthusiasts come to take pictures of the wetlands. During the seaweed production season, visitors can see tens of thousands of bamboo stalks sticking into the wetland to form a net grid that goes on over several miles.

Yang Jiaxi is located in the town of Yacheng in Xiapu County. A sight worth mentioning is the “Banyan King,” which has lived more than 800 years. The trunk is hollow and has 7 enormous holes, each able to accommodate several people within. When the morning sun pierces the woods, the mottled tree shadows create a dreamlike atmosphere under the twinkling of light and shadow.

Situated in the eastern Xiapu Town, Xiaohao Village is home to Mindong Fishing Ground, which is well-known across the country. Mountains in the East and West embrace a golden beach. New twisted watercourses emerge after each tide. Embellished by the sea waves, the beautiful lamination of the beach creates reflections, resulting in a unique scene and making it an ideal place for photography.
