Semi-ocean shifan, formerly known as Shibeiyang, looks at the sea more than 500 meters west of Aocun in the northwest of Pingtan Island. From a distance, there is a large disk-shaped reef, holding two stele-shaped sea pillars with one high and one low. The whole reef is like a big ship, and two huge stones, like double sails bulging on both sides, seem to be riding the wind and waves. This is the most famous natural landscape in Pingtan-Shipaiyang. Also known as "semi-ocean sail" and "double sail stone".
It is recognized as the only semi-ocean sail in China that stands on the sea.
Take a ferry from the shore of Kanao Village, and you can reach the reef in ten minutes. At the bottom of the reef is a group of flat and complete rocks. The two stone pillars are composed of coarse-grained gray-white granite. The one on the east side is 33 meters high, 9 meters wide and 8 meters thick. The one on the west side is17m high,15m wide and 8m thick. The bottoms of the two stone pillars are almost quadrangular and stand upright on the rocks. According to the research of geologists, it is the largest granite spherical weathering sea erosion column in the world. Because of its peculiar spectacle, it has a strong shock and attraction to tourists. Experts from the Ministry of Construction and the Chinese Academy of Sciences call it "monopolistic world-class tourism resources." Chandy, a traveler in the Ming Dynasty, once praised it as "the wonder of the world", and Suk-ching Lam, a poetess in the Qing Dynasty, praised it: "* * * said that the boat sailed in Di Zi before, and the double sails occasionally left this sentence; It is expected that due to the storm in troubled times, one berth will not be closed in this cable. "
Corresponding to the semi-ocean sail, at the seaside of Kanao Village, the granite on the rock wall is weathered due to seawater erosion and natural weathering, forming a Maitreya Buddha statue with a bald head and a bulging belly. The stone statue sits with its knees bent, with a height of12m and a shoulder width of12m. The head, body, hands and feet are vivid, and it looks like a semi-relief. There is a brown igneous vein around the Buddha's body, just like a golden "Hada" dedicated to the Buddha, which is also a natural coincidence and interesting. In addition, there are many natural marine erosion landscapes here, such as turtle kissing and frogs.
Frog stone
It is the Haitan God at the southern end of Pingyuan that contrasts with the semi-ocean sail. Haitan God is a huge stone that looks like a naked man, lying on his back in the sea. The stone body is 330 meters long and 150 meters wide. The stone head rests on the golden beach, and his feet are stretched out in the blue waves of the East China Sea. His hands are straight beside him, and his belly is high in the middle. Because the local people don't know its cause, they call it "Haitan God". In fact, it was formed by the erosion of granite mass by seawater for thousands of years.
Haitan Tianshen is one of the "double wonders" of Pingtan Island (the other is Shipaiyang), which is located in the middle of the South China Sea in Nanzhong Village, Tangyu, Nanhai Township. The Tianshen rests on the beach and reaches the South China Sea. The body length is 330 meters and the body width is 150 meters. The chest height is 36 meters, the head length is 33 meters, the head width is 35 meters, the head height is 3 1 m, the neck length is 18.3 meters, and the lower part of the body is tilted into a columnar weathered rock mass, such as male characteristics, with a height of 4. 15 meters and a circumference of 4.50 meters, which is the ancestor worship of the surrounding fishermen. The whole body is made of granite spherical weathering modeling, and such a huge spherical weathering modeling is rare in the world and unique in the world.
Best of all, you can actually see many interesting scenes in Haitan God, for example, the male character is an upside-down boot at close range. The natural sea erosion cracks around the gods are like the Great Wall of Wan Li. In the middle of the body, there are many cylindrical stones of different sizes, almost pure cylinders, as if the pillars of heaven were broken and scattered around the world. So many, too numerous to mention.
Fairyland in the East China Sea (Fairyland) Fairyland is located at the southern foot of Wangye Mountain. There are Fairy Valley, Fairy Well, Fairy Spring and Fairy Gorge in the Fairyland, among which Fairy Well is the most spectacular scene, with a well depth of 37 meters and a wellhead diameter of 33 meters. The shaft wall is a cliff, and there are three small holes at the bottom of the well connected with the sea, in which boats can haunt. Whenever the tide rises, the wild waves, thunder and tsunami in the well are earth-shattering and spectacular. Next to the "Fairy Well", there is a grand canyon that seems to split in the middle of the mountain, called Fairy Valley.
Outside the valley, there is a vast sea, and there is a small hole on the side that communicates with the fairy well. When the tide is not high, visitors can enter the well along the rock wall. The bottom of the well is covered with round pebbles, which are naturally formed by seawater erosion. At this time, if people look at the bottom of the well from the "well" mouth, the rock wall is steep and mottled, and the person at the bottom of the well looks like a young ant. The person who looks at the well is weak in the heart and dizzy in the head, fearing the attack of acrophobia and quickly withdrawing; When people are at the bottom of the well, they sit up and watch the sky, and the waves below rush to the soles of their feet. The sound of the waves is relaxing and accompanied by the waves kissing the rocks and the snow flying away. The chill in the cave is pressing and even the evil wind is Xu Lai. Faced with the strange appearance of mottled and peeling rocks, people can't help but lament the magic of the sea and the vicissitudes of time.

A real "fishing song at night"
The sea is boundless, but the coastline inadvertently reveals the secret of the sea: the winding beach is a musical score without a final chapter, colorful wooden seagoing vessels constitute naughty notes on the musical score, and offshore aquaculture farms are clearly terraced fields on the sea, and fishing nets drying on the beach are like giant octopus.
After the low tide, women wearing bright headscarves can be seen everywhere. They gather small fish and shells on the beach in groups of three or five, which local fishermen call "begging for a small sea". On the beach, their headscarves are very eye-catching, and the winding lines of the coastline are picturesque. There are also weathered boulders, dark beaches, caves riddled with seawater erosion ... The only thing you have to do is hold the camera in your hand, hold your breath and press the shutter quickly.
Oyster snipe is a frequent visitor on the beach.
In the evening when the setting sun melts gold, the seawall is the place with the least assets. Mixed with a faint fishy smell, it drove away the heat of the day. The sun slowly set to the sea level, but it dyed the last touch of gold on the waves. The beach is still busy, and a group of oyster snipes are busy collecting rich meals prepared by the sea for them. All kinds of shellfish and small fish and shrimp are their favorite. Oyster snipe is a frequent visitor on the beach, with a long pink beak and feet, and spotless feathers make them look more like mysterious elves.
Except for the oyster snipe, only hardworking fishermen are working on the beach at this time. The afterglow of the setting sun has not completely disappeared, and there is a motor sound from far and near on the sea. It is the men in the fishing village who have come back from the sea. Their women and children, even their dogs, are waiting on the beach, waiting for the fishing boat to land smoothly, waiting for the reunion of their relatives, waiting for the rich catch.
Although the sea is sometimes moody, it has never let the fishermen here down. Baskets of sea goods were carried off the boat, and strong men shouted their trumpets and carried the boats ashore. Behind them were the smiling faces of women sorting out their catches and the children's silvery laughter. The setting sun outlined their silhouettes and became sculptures of various shapes.
★ Pingtan Island (Pingtan County) is located in the east of Fujian Province, which is the largest island in Fujian, 0/30 km away from Fuzhou/Kloc, the capital of Fujian Province.
★ The climate here is subtropical and maritime, and it is suitable for sightseeing except in winter.
★ There are many scenic spots on the island, but they are scattered, so it is not a problem to have a car owner. If the daily rental of chartered cars is about 200 yuan.
★ It is strongly recommended that carsick people be cautious. It takes two and a half hours from Fuzhou to Pingtan, and it takes ten minutes to cross the sea by ferry. The scenic spots on the island are far apart, and they usually have to take a bus 1 hour.
★ The most famous scenic spot in Pingtan is Shipaiyang. In addition, Jiangjun Mountain overlooks the bay, and it is also refreshing to have a panoramic view of the island at Shishou Mountain, the commanding height of Pingtan. The beach is clean, but the beach is hard, not the real soft beach.
★ If you are a photography enthusiast, "Before Australia" is a must. Fishing in the sea, drying fishing nets and fishing boats entering and leaving Hong Kong can all be photographed in front of Australia, especially the beach after sunset, which is an excellent landscape painting.
For the "donkey friends" who have a fever, the "East China Sea" is also an exciting place. There are abnormal boulders in the evolution of marine erosion landforms everywhere, and the powerful power of nature is awesome.
In addition, Junshan and Guocai are also worth visiting. Longfengtou, East China Sea Wonderland, Shipaiyang and Haitan Shenren are scenic spots that have been developed and matured.
