We are now going to the theme of today's tour in Zhuhai - Dong'ao Island. Zhuhai is a seaside resort and leisure city. Its land area is 1,952 square kilometers and its sea area is 5,965.2 square kilometers. On the vast waters of the Pearl River estuary, there are as many as 146 islands, large and small, most of them It is the Wanshan Islands concentrated in the eastern sea. It can be said that the island resources are very rich. It is definitely the city with the largest island area and the largest number of islands in Guangdong Province.

These islands are dotted like pearls in the South China Sea. The famous CCTV host Li Yong once asked such a question in "Lucky 52", asking about China's "City of One Hundred Islands" Where, can you guys answer this question now? That’s right, it’s our Zhuhai. There is a saying when coming to Zhuhai that I want to share with everyone. It is called "Zhuhai, eat seafood, and play on the sea." It means that you must not miss having a close contact with the sea and islands when you come here. You may be thinking, there are so many islands in Zhuhai, which one is the most fun? Yes, there are indeed many islands in Zhuhai, including Guishan Island, which is closest to Hong Kong, Wailingding Island, which is related to the patriotic general Wen Tianxiang of the Southern Song Dynasty, Jiuzhou Island, Qi'ao Island, Hebao Island, Gaolan Island, etc. . Among the many islands here, Dong'ao Island is the most charming and unforgettable. Why do you say that? Let us find the answer together on this island! Look, what are the characteristics of the coastline where we just disembarked? By the way, her arc is very graceful, which is where Dong'ao Island got its name.

"Ao" is a curved place on the seaside where ships can be berthed. Most of them are used in place names. For example, the word "Ao" in Macau, one of the special administrative regions of our country, is used. Well, here, because this "Ao" is on the east side of the island, it is called "Dong'ao Island"! Some of our guests who came from the inland smelled a special smell. This is the smell of the sea. Some people call it sea smell. You can see a lot of seafood drying on the shore: the five-cornered ones are starfish, and the ones next to them are dried fish; the ones with long fangs over there are sea snakes, and the ones further away are fat and thick. The short one is sea cucumber. On this island, there live some fishermen who have made a living by fishing for generations, forming a Dong'ao village. These are what they harvested when they returned from the sea. There is a primary school, a credit union, and a post and telecommunications agency in the village, which is almost the same as on land. The folk customs here are simple and the people in the village are very hospitable. You see, even the puppies and old hens on the ground are not afraid of people and are walking leisurely.

Please follow me and walk up the stone path on the right. This road leads to Gun City. It could be called a military artery back then, but most people wouldn't let it pass. We are still very happy now living in a peaceful era. "鳳" means "charge" with "full" next to the word "gold". In ancient times, it referred to firearms such as guns. Gun City was a military fortress with firearms. Now the vegetation here is very lush, with the forest coverage rate reaching 82%. The villagers cherish every tree and stone on the island, and insist on planting 500 acres of trees every year. When we come, we should do as the Romans do and take practical actions to keep the place clean. If there are leftover bottles or food packaging on the road, please be polite and throw them into the nearby trash can. Someone asked if the pineapples growing on the tree on the roadside were edible. I remembered an allusion called "Li Ku on the Roadside." It was about a child named Wang Rong who went to play with other children from the same village outside the village and was tired and thirsty. , then they saw a plum tree growing on the roadside, which was full of fresh plums. It was very tempting. The children around Wang Rong climbed up the tree to pick it, but he did not go, saying: "Here There are a lot of people coming and going every day, why is no one picking them? It may not be very tasty.” The same goes for this wild pineapple. If eaten raw, it will cause irritation and discomfort in the throat, so “you can only watch it from a distance and don’t play with it.” "ah.

There are some shellfish on the rocks on the roadside. Our Dong'ao Island is very rich in seafood. There are more than 200 kinds of fish alone, and there are more than 70 common kinds. In addition to the seafood being dried just after landing, the general hat, dog claw snail and stone jiugong here are called the "Three Treasures of Dongao". They are very delicious and you can try them if you have the opportunity. This slightly empty place is the customs site of Dongao Island. After the Opium War, the British occupied Hong Kong, then occupied Kowloon in 1860, and leased the New Territories, Lantau Island, Cheung Chau and other islands in 1898. In order to maintain the customs' foreign trade management and taxation interests, the Qing government planned to establish Dong'ao Customs in 1898 to replace the functions of the Changzhou Duty Factory of Kowloon Customs that had just withdrawn. In October 1899, Dong'ao Customs was officially put into use. It was responsible for supervising Chinese civilian ships and the goods carried between Hong Kong and coastal towns in western Guangdong, and collecting opium duties and department store duties.

After the Revolution of 1911, changes occurred. The Republic of China government stopped the evil opium trade in 1917. At that time, the society was in chaos and the people were in dire straits. The customs was often harassed by pirates, and fewer and fewer ships came to declare customs. On May 31, 1919 On that day, the place was officially closed for retreat, and all procedures were transferred to the Maliuzhou branch in Gongbei.

I didn’t expect that such a pleasant and beautiful island now has a history closely related to modern China’s foreign trade economy! But something even more historical is yet to come, that is Gun City. This gun city was built in 1729, the seventh year of Yongzheng reign of the Qing Dynasty. The current ruins mainly include gun city and beacon tower. The plan of Gun City is rectangular, 49 meters long and 22 meters wide. The walls are 3 meters high and 2 meters thick. They are all made of stones. The city gates are domed with blue bricks. The gun emplacements on the city are very clear. , everyone can take photos on it for a while. There is a beacon tower about 30 meters southeast of Guangcheng. It is in the shape of a frustum and is built with small stones. The diameter of the top is half a meter. This gun city was an important coastal defense military facility used by the Qing government to resist foreign aggression. It was an important military location at that time. Everyone can now climb the city wall and look out over the sea. You see, the mountains and plains below the fort are covered with small flowers of various colors. Close your eyes, let the sea breeze blow, and smell it carefully. It has a refreshing fragrance.

Look in the direction of my finger. Does it look like a general strategizing there? This is General Zhenhai. He is here day and night to monitor the sea, guard every plant and tree on the island, and protect the safety of this landscape. We thank him for allowing us to have a smooth travel life today. Here, we wish him good health. , all the best! Now we return the same way and drive to Nansha Bay, known as "Diamond Beach". I have been to many beaches in southern and northern China, among which Nansha Bay left the best impression on me. Let’s not talk about the distance. It is definitely the most famous among the Wanshan Islands. It can be said to be the best in Zhuhai city or nearby islands. Although this beach is not big, it has gentle terrain and is known as a sloping beach with white sand, clean water and soft waves. It is suitable for swimming, fishing, and even more suitable for marine entertainment. When the tide is low, you can also catch crabs and collect shells on it, which is particularly interesting. During major festivals such as Golden Week, enthusiastic bonfire parties will also be held here. At that time, you can come here to dance to the songs and experience another style of Dong'ao Island.

Every time we come here, the guests have such a good time that they are reluctant to leave. Some friends may say that they are not very good at swimming, but it doesn’t matter here at all, because there is an axe-bearing mountain that is not too high next to Nansha Bay. According to legend, Wu Gang lingered here when he was resting on cutting osmanthus trees, and dropped his axe, which turned into a giant. for this mountain. The top of the mountain is flat, has a broad view, and is connected to the mountains and the sea. There is a Honeymoon Pavilion where you can have a panoramic view of the wonderful scenery of the entire island. "Climbing the Si Pavilion" can really be said to be "forgetting all the favors and humiliations, it is so joyful." ah! As the ancients said, "The benevolent are happy in the mountains, and the wise are happy in the water." Here, you can enjoy the rare beauty in this hustle and bustle of the city. Now, Dong'ao Island has joined forces with Jiuzhou Port Group, the leader of Zhuhai's local tourism companies, to invest 650 million to build Dong'ao Island into the most noble resort and conference center in the Wanshan Islands. At that time, when you come here again, you will have a more complete experience than now.

Now we are free to move around and gather under the red flag on this beach in two hours. In the past, it would have been "growing up under the red flag", but this time we can be regarded as playing under the red flag.

While everyone is having fun, please remember to pay attention to safety!
