preface
Kasumi, for the beautiful clouds, Pu, for the river into the sea. Xiapu is a dialogue between heaven and earth, and it is also a place where the light and the sea meet. Xiapu in 1800, from the founding of the city to the present, seems to be destined to be full of legends, becoming the oldest "pearl on the sea" in eastern Fujian.
Here the mountains and rivers are beautiful, the folk customs are simple, and the light and shadow are picturesque. On the 505-kilometer-long coastline, there are 696 square kilometers of tidal flats in the country, which is the gold coast of beach photography and is known as "the world's most beautiful beach photography holy land".
From the "Sea Country Taoyuan" of Yangjiaxi, to the "Venice of the Sea" in Dong'an, the "Golden Beach" of Xiaohao, and then to the "Mantou Mountain" of the Weijiang River; from the "Most Beautiful S Bend" of shajiang River, to the "Sea Ranch" of Dongbi, the "Sea Gypsy" of Yantian, and then to the "Coast Guard" of Goose Bay...
Xiapu tourism is the most famous 8 must-go punch card places, the world's most amazing landscape and the world-famous sea and sky style, it is really a surprise, all of them are intoxicating.
Yangjiaxi: Landscape pastoral singing pastoral songs
Yangjiaxi, located in Xiapu Shuimen She Nationality Township, the two banks of the creek are hidden by green mountains, green water is leisurely, thousands of peaks are towering, Bixi is dust-free, known as "the first stream in the wilderness of Jiangnan" and "Xiao wuyi in eastern Fujian".
Surrounded by mountains and seas, Yangjia creek stretches for tens of miles, like a fluctuating green silk, and like a fluttering green belt, meandering all the way, and finally running to the embrace of the sea.
In the meantime, take a bamboo raft, gentle place, from the stream, anything, clear water, relaxed. In a hurry, ride the wind and waves, the waves splash, the gravel piles up, there is no danger. The ever-changing and breathtaking changes.
Looking at the thousand-year-old banyan tree, the peasants wear bucket hats on their heads, wear cloaks, hold cattle in their hands, hum country tunes in their mouths, and match them with dreamlike clouds and mist, is not it the mellow picture of the pastoral pastoral songs that many people in the city have in mind?
Here, the water can be viewed with mountain views, and the mountaineering can look at the water show. Ancient banyan trees, Qifeng Cuifeng, bamboo rows shallow, egrets flying. The sunset of The head of the ferry faintly covered the green bamboo, and the lonely smoke in the ruins haunted the bushes of trees, and it was already a good picture of the taoyuan of the sea country.
Taijiang: Venice on the Dong'an Sea
Dong'an Island, located in the south of Xiapu County, is the second largest island in Xiapu, and the nearby waters are known as "natural fish reservoirs". More than 20 years ago, fishermen in Taijiang Village, in order to develop the marine aquaculture industry, have successively built many fishing rows for fish farming in cages in this sea area.
Houses are built on the fishing rows, and seafood is cultivated under the fishing rows, and gradually the fishing rows are connected into pieces, and the wooden houses are connected into villages, and the fishermen together create a fantastic sea home. From the Taijiang Village Wharf, you can take a fishing boat ride to experience the daily life on the fishing steak up close.
Climb to the island and look around, between the sea and the sky, hundreds of thousands of seafood farming cages and thousands of sea wooden houses, forming an endless fishing steak, which is spectacular. Such a grand scene is definitely a rare in China.
Fishermen work on the "land" where fishing rows are connected, and fishing boats shuttle on the "road" between fishing rows, just like a Chinese version of Venice Water City, no wonder it is called "Venice on the Sea", and it is true to see it.
Today's Dong'an Island waters have long become the location of the most concentrated fishing rows in Xiapu and Fujian, and its fishing row area is the largest in the country, and it has become the world's largest marine aquaculture farm, known as "Haitian Fishing Country".
Xiao Hao: Dream light and shadow golden beach
Xiaohao Village, a fishing village with a history of 300 years, is also the location of the famous Mindong fishing farm in the country, and is famous for its "golden beach". If you compare the Xiapu beach to a beautiful necklace, Xiao Hao is one of the crystal clear pearls.
When the sunlight penetrates the clouds and sprinkles on the sea, the sea seems to be dyed a golden yellow, and the sea breeze blows through, sparkling waves, like gold shimmering dazzling and charming. Fishermen are paired up in pairs, chasing the sea along the gentle and dreamy arc of the waves.
I think that at this moment, no matter who it is, watching the cascading waves lapping at the golden sand, watching the fishermen coming and going on the beach, looking at the floating light and jumping gold sea, they can't help but marvel at the dreamlike natural light and shadow.
300 years ago, the ancestors of southern Fujian came to Xiaohao and multiplied here. Generations of Xiaohao people have witnessed the changing scenery of the four seasons, the shadows of the sea, the sunrise and sunset and the golden beach, and also witnessed the progress and vigorous development of the place.
300 years later, between the rise and fall of the tide and the change of seasons, this mountain and sea pastoral garden, every day, still presents her colorful with a new attitude, and generously shows her beautiful and colorful smart style to tourists around the world, which is mesmerizing.
Waijiang: Red Sun East Rising Mantou Mountain
In the western sea of Waijiang Village, there is an island reef, standing at the photography point overlooking, the mountain peak resembles a steamed bun, so the photographer calls it "Mantou Mountain". After low tide, the connection between the island and the tidal flats is like a curtain and a ribbon, so some people call it "Hat Mountain".
Mantou Mountain, also favored by tourists with its unique appearance, has become one of the resorts for many photographers to shoot sunrise and pursue the art of light and shadow, attracting more than one million tourists every year.
When the sky slowly opened its eyes, a soft fish belly white cut through the original blue night sky. Gradually, a little scarlet rose from the seashore, and slowly, the clouds gradually dispersed. The sunlight slowly turned from a wisp to a wisp, and then a smile appeared little by little.
The clouds on the edge of the sky slowly swim and reunite, and when they are not careful, they are dyed with the afterglow of the sun, yellow, gold, red, purple, pink, as if they are staging a symphony of changing colors, and the beautiful melody makes people feel full of joy inside.
Then, a red sun finally burst out, the light was shining, a few gulls bravely skimmed the tip of the waves, and the bamboo pole dragged a long reflection, like a graceful dancer dancing, and the whole sea surface seemed to be covered with a layer of holy brilliance.
The fishing boats that shuttle between the shadows of buoy rods, together with the rows of bamboo poles in the sea, are integrated with the sea, distant mountains and islands, forming a natural landscape picture.
East Wall: Sunset In eastern Fujian, Xiaoputuo
Dongbi Village, located in the south of the middle of the Sansha Peninsula in the East China Sea of Fujian, the whole village is built on the pillow mountain facing the sea, standing between the bare mountain rocks and verdant trees, harmonious and quiet, beautiful scenery, known as "Mindong Little Putuo" reputation.
It has formed a spectacular scenery of mountains, seas, people, villages, beaches, reefs, woods, fishing boats, bamboo poles and other spectacular scenery, which has become a seaside sunset photography destination for photographers from all over the world.
At sunset, the distant mountains become faintly hazy. The setting sun shines a golden light from the clouds and sprinkles onto the sea, the flowing water sparkles, and fishing boats and bamboo poles become beautiful silhouettes that dot it.
The soft lines on the beach, illuminated by the sunset, show a sharp contrast between different cool and warm tones, and the overflowing streamers are like a dream. Dressed in a red suit, the fisherwoman shoulders a pair of yellow fish baskets, stepping on the waves, full of smart style.
Under the gaze of the sky and clouds, the sunset kissed the sea goodbye, and without hesitation, sprinkled red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple from the sky, dyeing the sea and the beach into a beautiful picture of colorful colors.
The beauty of the sunset on the east wall, its beauty in the interweaving of light and shadow, the beauty in a unique tranquility and harmony possessed by the people of the mountains and seas, the beauty in the real nature and original taste, people are intoxicated.
Shajiang: S-bend amazes the world
Of all the scenery blockbusters about Xiapu, the most classic is the Shajiang S Bend. Because it once represented China, it was selected to be included in the promotional film of the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Olympic Games in Brazil, which amazed the world and was called the beautiful Fujian scenery business card.
Shajiang S Bend, located in Shajiang Village, Shajiang Town, Xiapu, is backed by mountains and faces the sea, the terrain is wide and flat, and the vast shallow beaches provide a broad space for fishermen to develop marine aquaculture.
Numerous bamboo poles are inserted into the beach, forming a staggered curve. Bamboo poles are hung with kelp that are either dark brown, dark green or dark green, and fishing boats snake through the curves, reflecting the beauty of light and shadow, the beauty of lines and the beauty of harvest.
Above the graceful S-bend waterway, rows of bamboo poles standing on the sea, together with fishing boats coming and going, smudge a fresh and elegant ink and danqing, and travelers from the south of the sky come here to see her amazing face that is famous in the world.
When the sunset reflects the red half of the sky, the afterglow sprinkles on the sea surface, the sea water sparkles, the golden sea water and the dark kelp, under the illumination of the sunset, form a sharp contrast in color, the blue sea is overflowing, the beach is paved with gold, how many photographers are fascinated?
At the touch of a penny, a leaf boat breaks through the quiet water, carrying the fisherman who has been plated with a layer of bronze luster, with a string of ripples, slid into the golden light and shadow, and walked and groaned.
Yantian: The Gypsy family of the sea
Yantian Township, once the largest concentration of boat people in Fujian, fishermen take boats as their home, the space on the boat is small, but the layout is orderly, and its living environment is somewhat similar to the fishermen of Mabu Island in Malaysia, so it is called "gypsy on the sea".
Walking into the village, between the blue sky and the blue sea, green mountains and green water, you will be greeted by a beautiful fishing village with gulls and herons flying and oysters piling up. Today, as the years have passed, the salt pans have left only a few scattered boat homes and dilapidated oyster houses.
Fishermen drill holes in empty shells, then tie them to ropes and put them into the sea again, and after a while oysters grow on these shells, and their daily job is to hang oysters and collect oysters.
Just like the aunt I saw who was hanging oysters, her face was engraved with the wind and frost left by the years, but she was still so simple and generous, with her own diligent hands, composing a happy and happy chapter of life, people had to admire their hard work.
It is precisely because of the hard work of these fishermen that so many people across the country can eat so much seafood delicious! Therefore, every laborer who loves life is remarkable and deserves to be respected.
Goose Bay: Coast Guard lives here
Goose Bay Mangrove Forest, located in Goose Bay Village, Yantian Township, is named for its shape like a goose's head. "Mangrove Forest", commonly known as "sea banyan tree", is a national second-level protected plant, which has the role of a wave-proof berm, so it has the reputation of "coast guard".
In Goose Bay, looking around, there is no endless forest, there is no vast and boundless red, and what comes into sight is the same wetland scenery as Jiangnan, dense and quiet.
The mangroves divide the tidal flats into a series of winding waterways, and as the tide rises and falls, it either reveals the tidal flats or blends with the sea, and three or two small fishing boats and four or five egrets dot them, forming a wonderful ink painting.
Simple thatched huts stand in the water, and the fishing nets scattered by fishermen break the still water surface, creating ripples and sparkling waves under the sunlight, creating a charming scenery of idyllic pastoralism.
Many people are full of longing for the paradise, looking at the mangroves in front of me, which evokes my desire to retreat. Everything here is far away from the hustle and bustle and quiet; everything here is picturesque, poetic and unforgettable.
