Taihai Net, May 22 (Straits Herald reporter Cui Xiaoxu, Zeng Yushan, Sun Chunyan/Wen Shenwei/Photo) On the weekend, hundreds of tents and canopies were erected on the lawn, but the lawn was bald, there was more garbage, and the environment was noisy...
Go out of the house, find an outdoor green space, hold up a canopy, set up a tent, lay out a table of exquisite food, sit on a leisure chair with your family and confidantes to make tea and chat.
This is one of the leisure ways for Xiamen people in early summer - whether it is warm or rainy, stay for a few hours, in this way of returning to the basics, intimate contact with nature, and embrace "poetry and distance" at the doorstep.
In Xiamen, there are many lawns open to citizens and tourists, some in parks and some on the beach, where citizens can "set up camp". However, while the lawn is open to citizens and tourists to take a rest and get close to nature, it also causes many problems.
In the past weekend, the Herald reporter visited some lawns open to citizens in Xiamen and found that on weekends, the lawn was "tented" and the tide was turbulent, and the most obvious problem was that the lawn was overused and garbage increased, and some citizens and tourists did not abide by the agreement, privately carried cassette furnaces and other equipment, and illegally used open flames, bringing potential safety hazards.
Hundreds of tents and canopies on the three- or four-kilometer coastline of the coastal tourism romantic line in the East China Sea are "spectacular"
Coastal romantic line around the East Sea, sunny beach, coconut wind and sea charm, rainbow runway. Here, the vegetation is luxuriant, there are large green spaces, and along the coastline of three or four kilometers, the romantic scenery of the coast is unobstructed.
As one of Xiamen's "camping resorts", the Coastal Tourism Romantic Line allows citizens and tourists to lay mats and pitch tents on grass and beaches, but does not allow hammocks on trees and barbecues on grass.
At 9 a.m. last Saturday, the Herald reporter entered the Coastal Tourism Romantic Line from the entrance of Rainbow Beach. On the green space on both sides of the road on the coastal side, tents and canopies have long been erected, and as far as the eye can see, there are hundreds of them. These tents and canopies are rented by merchants or built by citizens.
"Since about last summer, I've seen people camping here with picnic mats and tents, and the surrounding parking lots are often full. On weekends, lawns are hard to come by, and the roadside is full of cars. Ms. Shen, who lives nearby, said, "Now this is one of the most popular camping spots in Xiamen, and sometimes friends from the island will come here to camp and ask me to blow the sea breeze, make tea and chat." ”
Near 10 o'clock, the flow of people gradually increased, and on the path leading to Rainbow Beach, from time to time, newly arrived "tent people" pulled camper vans. Because the entrance is narrow, only one person can pass, and everyone has to lift the camper and other items high over the railing. The camping is fully equipped, including canopies, tents, portable folding tables and chairs, stove cookers, camp lights, etc.
Stroll along the coastline, on the beach, on the greenery, or bring your family, or invite friends to fly kites, play frisbee, walk the dog, it is not comfortable. Along the way, the Herald reporter noticed that garbage was rarely seen on the lawn, and almost all of the meal packaging boxes and packaging bags brought by citizens were gathered in their respective camping areas, or thrown into the garbage cans temporarily placed along the way. However, outside the tents, music is played on the speakers outside, and the music adds up to make the environment very noisy.
Sitting under the canopy, the sea breeze is practiced, but the canopy is also full of hidden dangers, especially the slender rope it carries, which may trip or "cut" tourists, and unsecured ground nails may also bounce and injure people after being forced. In addition, traces of multiple tent camps can be clearly seen in the grass, and the skin of some grass has been destroyed.
"The more people camping, the more we workload." A sanitation worker said, "If everyone can develop a good habit of cleaning up and taking away garbage in time, or put it where it should be, our workload will be less." ”
When night falls, some tents will be lit up, warm yellow lights will shine quietly, people will be covered with the Milky Way above their heads, listen to the waves and insects, and feel the long-lost emotion and happiness.
The opening time for camping on the sections of Coconut Wind Village and Yuepo Road on Huandao Road has not yet arrived, and many citizens can't wait to set up tents
In the natural backdrop of the wave beach, don't care about the passage of time. Watching the clouds roll in the sky, listening to the waves lapping on the reef, sitting under the canopy drinking tea, chatting, and stretching beautifully, the happiness is so pure.
In order to maintain the beautiful environment and good order of the sea near Huandao Road, the green space of the Coconut Wind Village Road and the Yuepo Road section have issued an initiative of "camping without a trace" to citizens and tourists. When the Herald reporter entered the green space of the roundabout section, he noticed at a glance the "Civilized Camping Convention" sign standing on the edge of the grass and the "camping area" surrounded by railings.
According to the signage, special camping areas have been set up in the sections of Coconut Wind Village and Playyuepo Road on Huandao Road, and tents and canopies are allowed in the open sharing area, but overnight stays are prohibited. Although camping is open from 12:00 to 20:00 (winter) and from 14:00 to 22:00 (summer), early last Saturday morning, many people could already be seen setting up tents and tea tables in these areas on the roundabout. "There are cafes in the Yuetpo section, some merchants offer tents for rent, the set is indeed better, but the cost is a bit high. We are local camping enthusiasts in Xiamen, and we will meet our friends to sit by the beach every weekend, so we choose to bring our own tea set and cassette stove in the open sharing area of the coconut wind village section, and make simple food when hungry at noon, which is comfortable and affordable. Ms. Chen, who made tea under her own canopy, enthusiastically shared her experience with the Herald reporter.
Under a few large trees on the other side, many citizens also come here to camp with their families, some have set up a spacious canopy, and the small carts next to them are full of camping tools; Some only have portable tables and chairs, and they simply set them up and start eating the food they bring with them. The Herald reporter was pleased to see that there was no random dumping of drinks, oil and other liquids on the beach, but affected by the sea breeze, there were scattered food packaging bags and paper towels hidden in the beach and grass, which affected the beauty.
The Herald reporter also noted that along Huandao Road, patrol cars of chengguan will patrol from time to time to supervise whether citizens and tourists have illegal camping and mobile vendors occupy the road.
Wuyuanwan Wetland Park is popular for camping by the sea, and the residual beach of packaging bags is unsightly
Walking through the greenery, lying in the sea breeze, adults sitting in tents chatting and resting, and children running and playing on the beach are rare moments of leisure in the fast-paced life of the city. Last weekend, the Herald reporter captured such a warm scene in Wuyuanwan Wetland Park.
In Wuyuanwan Wetland Park, from the bridge leading to Music Island to the east bank of the Tianyuan Bridge, there is a beach area designated as a camping area. The camping area is clearly marked on a warning sign, and the warning sign also stipulates that "no dogs are allowed to enter the park, no electric vehicles, no fishing, no littering, no open fire, no climbing over the railing, no stalls, etc."
According to the regulations, 7:00-19:00 is the time when the beach is allowed to open to the public, and citizens can set up their own tents or lay floor mats for camping. The warning sign of the "Beach Management Regulations" clearly reads: "Choose tents that do not need to be nailed, occupy an area of less than 5 square meters, and do not exceed 1.5 meters in height." The Herald reporter saw from the situation at the scene that most of the people who came to camp here were parent-child families, although the tent was relatively large, but the area was in line with the regulations, less than 5 square meters; But there are also families who set up canopies and nailed them on the beach.
In addition to making tea and chatting, they also brought a variety of snacks and drinks, and many families ordered takeaway to enjoy in the park and on the beach. As far as the eye can see, there is one footwash basin and two sorting garbage cans around the area, which provides a lot of convenience for citizens, but there are still food packaging bags left on the beach.
After the rectification of the Jimei Ten Mile Causeway, it was rare to see tents, and many grasses exposed loess
"Ten Mile Causeway" refers to a green space near the subway station of Jimei Village, which is commonly known as "old train green space" by locals. The sea and sky are connected here, and at the end of the stretch of green grass is the embankment, where old fishing boats are moored, and egrets are flying.
Today's ten-mile causeway, you can watch the sea side by side with the "old fishing boat", overlooking the prosperous Xiamen island; You can also stroll by the sea in the evening to watch the beautiful sunset; After nightfall, you can also feel the fireworks of the "trunk market" and listen to the natural sound of the band.
At one time, it once became Xiamen's "net celebrity" picnic campground, and at most tens of thousands of people came to "set up camp" during peak hours, but it was ordered to rectify due to serious camping personnel, too many tents, piles of garbage and other reasons. Last weekend, the Herald reporter came to the Ten-mile Causeway again, and a guardrail had been fenced outside the grass to prevent pedestrians from passing, and citizens and tourists had to detour through the parking lot to enter it. Along the way, itinerant vendors selling cold peels, four-fruit soup, flowers, balloons, etc. can be seen everywhere, and the smell of various foods wafts in the air.
In the morning and noon, there are not many people playing by the causeway, and most of them are "checking in" with friends. There are almost no tents and canopies in the meadow, only a few tourists bring their own food, stroll and taste it. Takeaway boxes, beverage bottles, packaging bags and other garbage are rarely seen on the lawn, but many areas have exposed loess, and the damage is obvious.
In addition to the cleaning staff cleaning the scene, there are also staff riding sanitation vehicles patrolling. They told the Herald reporter that after last year's rectification, the garbage pollution phenomenon of the ten-mile causeway has improved a lot, and the behavior of setting up hammocks and barbecues on the grass has almost disappeared. "The most people come to camp and set up stalls every weekend, and the amount of garbage is also the largest, and it would be better if everyone could change the habit of discarding garbage casually, and this area will definitely be cleaner and more popular with tourists." The cleaning staff said.
Xiamen Garden Expo Garden shares three green spaces, some of which are scalded and some are bald
Xiamen Garden Expo Garden (hereinafter referred to as "Garden Expo Garden"), as the earliest pilot of shared green space opened in Xiamen, is the "new" and "big" green space that camping enthusiasts love the most. The shared green space here is lush with vegetation, crisscrossing greenery and flower beds to form a beautiful "chessboard", and the whole park presents a scene of greenery and flowers.
The Herald reporter learned from the management office of the Garden Expo Garden that since the opening of the three shared green spaces in April this year, the average number of tourists who come here to set up tents and picnics every day is about 20-30 people, and weekends and holidays have increased.
Early last Saturday morning, on the shared green space of the Garden Expo Garden, Mr. Lau and his wife cooperated with each other to skillfully set up their tents and put the cooked food prepared at home on small tables and chairs. The couple sat on the floor, savored the food, and then brewed a steaming pot of Kung Fu tea, which was fragrant, relaxed and comfortable. But the couple did not know that their cassette stove for boiling water and tea would silently "hurt" the green grass, until the park workers reminded them, and the couple suddenly realized.
With the increase in the number of people using the green space, the uncivilized behavior of a small number of tourists has also caused damage to the lawn of the park. The Herald reporter walked around the three shared green spaces in the Garden Expo Garden and found that these three shared green spaces have been open for more than a month, and the lawns have been damaged to varying degrees, some are bald, some are yellow, and some lawns are "full of holes".
"Some tents and canopies need to be driven into the grass, which will cause greater damage to the turf, and there will be dense tent lines in the canopy, and incorrect use may trip people and have potential safety hazards." Some citizens and tourists use open flames to boil water, etc., which seems to be an unintentional move, but it will damage the turf and burn the turf, which can easily lead to problems such as yellowing of the turf. Park staff said that the vast majority of tourists will bring their own food, and when the crowd disperses, the garbage discarded by some tourists will be highlighted, which will bring great pressure to the daily cleaning and maintenance of the park.
In response to the uncivilized behavior, the park has also taken corresponding measures, such as increasing cleaning personnel, increasing recycling cleaning efforts, trying to ensure that there is no garbage and no cigarette butts around the grass and garbage cans, and cleaning, cleaning and sanitize garbage cans in time to ensure the environment of the park. During the non-opening period, the park will replant the damaged lawn to ensure the survival rate of the lawn.
