National Highway 207 (or "National Highway 207", "G207", "Wuhai Line") is a national highway in China, with National Highway 207 running from Xilinhot City in Inner Mongolia in the north to Haian Town, Xuwen County, Guangdong, covering a distance of 3,738 kilometers.

[Rose] is the final stage of a season of national road travel, each season of national road travel is a beautiful picture and travelogue, here not only increased the horizon, but also with many friends and friends to communicate a lot, I hope that each season of my posts will bring some small help to you who love travel.

[Breeze] D16 days Leizhou Peninsula Tour (Hai'an) Today, it should be such a few days, we will reach the southernmost point of the Chinese mainland, I will slowly introduce you to this special place, Leizhou Peninsula, a place that makes you haunted and reluctant, we are here.

The Leizhou Peninsula is a very special place, geographically it is located in the southernmost part of the Chinese mainland, even one of the three major peninsulas in the country, but it is certainly far less famous than the other two peninsulas (Shandong Peninsula and Liaodong Peninsula). If it is not said that it is across the sea from Hainan Island, many friends in the north may not know that there is such a place, the economy of the Leizhou Peninsula is not developed, and it is far from the central Pearl River Delta region of Guangdong, and the whole high-speed also needs 450 kilometers, compared with the developed Guangzhou and Shenzhen, it seems to be a forgotten corner of Guangdong. However, in the planning list of "Yue Xing", any place that has not been reached is a future destination, and the Leizhou Peninsula is honored to be the protagonist of this time.

[Breeze] Leizhou Peninsula East Frequency South China Sea West Beibu Bay, South and Hainan Island across the sea, the peninsula is surrounded by the sea on three sides, the coastline is about 1180 kilometers, and the coastline of the island is 1450 kilometers long, because it belongs to the jurisdiction of Leizhou Prefecture in history. In fact, the Leizhou Peninsula is all in the territory of Zhanjiang City, so Zhanjiang City has also become a city with the longest coastline in the country, this alone is not simple, in short, the unique beauty here will not be easily famous.

The Guangzhou-Zhanjiang Expressway could become the most congested highway in the country – in addition to the traffic to Zhanjiang back home, this expressway is also a must for the Beihai and Hainan directions in Guangxi. Therefore, I suggest that if you encounter holidays such as Spring Festival or Golden Week, don't make this lively. The city of Zhanjiang has had a very great development in recent years, the city has built many high-rise buildings, the road surface is very neat and elegant, and the cross-sea bridge is also very grand. But the most important thing is that the sky here must be blue, the whole city is built along the bay, and you can walk along the coastline for half of the city. On one side of the bay is the 10,000-ton port, on the other side of the bay are warships of the South China Sea Fleet, and outside the bay is Donghai Island, the country's fourth-largest island, where the country's largest steel plant was just started in September.

The area of the Leizhou Peninsula is not small, but the area of Zhanjiang City is larger, in fact, it is mainly Xuwen, Leizhou, Zhanjiang urban areas are within the scope of the peninsula, and 1/3 of Zhanjiang is outside the peninsula. For the reason for the name of Leizhou, there have always been good interpretations: Leizhou is named after Dore. Indeed, there are a lot of lightning here, and some people have said that "Leizhou is the second largest minefield in the world after Java", but this cannot be verified. When it comes to the dialect of Zhanjiang, including vernacular, Hakka, Hai, etc., there are so many that even the local people can't figure it out. However, Xuwen, Leizhou and Zhanjiang cities on the Leizhou Peninsula all speak a dialect commonly known as "Leizhou dialect", which belongs to the Min language family, the common mother tongue of Lei compatriots at home and abroad, mainly distributed in the southwest of Guangdong Province, southeast of Guangxi, northern Hainan, and overseas Southeast Asia, Europe and America Chinese and overseas Chinese gathering areas.

About Zhanjiang

The city of Zhanjiang is located at the southernmost tip of Chinese mainland, southwest of Guangdong Province, and includes all of the Leizhou Peninsula, one of the three major peninsulas in China, and part of the peninsula to the north. It is located at the intersection of the three provinces (regions) of Guangdong, Guizhou, and Qiongqiong, facing the sea on three sides, the South China Sea in the east, the Qiongzhou Strait in the south and Hainan Province in the south, the Beibu Gulf in the west, and the southwest on the back. The Zhanjiang area was formerly known as "Guangzhou Bay". In 1899, Guangzhou Bay was "leased" by France, and foreign trade flourished for a while. In 1943, it was occupied by the Japanese army. After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War in 1945, Guangzhou Bay returned and was named "Zhanjiang City" from then on. Because it once belonged to Chuchuan County in history, the East Sea Island in the territory once set up the Chuchuan Inspection Department, hence the name.

There are also many tourists who come here, but originally the village can live up to a hundred people, so it is not crowded at all, the beaches here are cleaner than Wushi Town, and the longer coastline has more functions: sunrise, sunset, seafood trading... Antarctic Village is under construction and development, now at most a low-end version of Gulangyu bar, come to the village are living in homestays, there are locals with private houses to transform, there are also outsiders come to build a new one, like Wushi Town, the information is relatively closed, many accommodation can not be booked online, need to call to book. The visit to Antarctic Village is mainly divided into three parts: Jiaoweijiao Lighthouse (where you can watch the sunrise), the coral reserve (you can watch the sunset and the starry sky), and the artist tribe.
