The south wind knows what I mean and dreams of Shengsi.
After drinking a cup of Bailu tea, I decided to head south to explore the story of Shengsi in the melodious fishing song.
There are 404 islands scattered across the vast Shengsi Islands.
Shengsi Island, Huanglong Island, Gouqi Island, and Shengshan Island are dotted on the vast East China Sea like stars, filling this sea area with the atmosphere of human fireworks.
This trip to Shengsi is an in-depth island trip. I will divide it into two travel notes to introduce the beautiful scenery, food, and beautiful accommodation of Shengsi tourism.
This is a six-day and five-night trip. The first travel trip mainly focuses on Sijiao Island, Shengsi Island, and the second travel trip mainly focuses on Huanglong Island, Gouqi Island and Shengshan Island.

[About how to buy a ferry ticket]
Island tourism is different from our usual tourism. Because the peak seasons and peak seasons are obvious, the purchase of ferry tickets has a great impact on our itinerary, so I have made a short summary here.
1. To and from Lizhushan Wharf in Shengsi, the most convenient way to walk from Shenjiawan in Shanghai.
When I went: from Shenjiawan to Shengsi Island, and the return journey: Nanpu Bridge → Shenjiawan Wharf → wolfberry (car and boat ticket), which is convenient to the railway station and the airport.
2. Currently, pre-sale tickets are only sold one day in advance at the window, and the ticket sales time is from 6:30 a.m. to 16:30 p.m.
3. Real-name ticket sales, one person can bring 1 ID card to buy 3 tickets. Tickets are basically not available during peak season and holidays unless you go to the queue one morning in advance. Tickets can basically be purchased on the off-season day, but they are all in the afternoon.
4. This is the most practical way to purchase tickets. If you purchase tickets through the Weixin Official Accounts Shengsi Passenger Terminal, you can purchase tickets three days later at 7 a.m.. During peak season, you must purchase tickets in advance.
[About preparations before departure]
1. When traveling on Shengsi Island, it is recommended that everyone should conscientiously do a good job in protecting sun and mosquitoes before setting off, and bring sunscreen and sunglasses. It is best to choose 50 times sun protection. If you go out with motion sickness, remember to bring motion sickness medicine and cool oil to prevent mosquito bites. The air on the beach is humid and there are not many mosquitoes. Band-Aid cold medicine is also a must-have. Mosquitoes are quite serious on the island, and we must do a good job in preventing mosquitoes. From my personal experience, I didn't do a good job in preventing mosquitoes. I bit more than 20 bags on my legs, and I will still itch after three days when I go home.
2. Regarding the purchase of ferry tickets for island travel, you can purchase them at 7 o'clock in the morning three days in advance on the local official public account. Because ferry tickets are relatively tight most of the time, it is recommended that everyone must buy tickets before traveling. If you are seasick, it is best to remember to bring medicine. After all, it takes several hours to go back and forth.
3. During island travel, in addition to the beautiful scenery, local B & Bs are also very unique. The delicious food on the tip of the tongue must be all kinds of seafood: swimming crabs, yellow croakers, pomfret, etc.
4. On the way to travel, remember to wear clothes with beautiful colors. It will have a better concave shape when taking photos. The seaside is especially suitable for long skirts. The temperature difference between day and night on the island is large, so bring a coat in autumn to be prepared.
5. The must-bring photo equipment, camera, mobile phone tripod, will add color to your travel travels. I have brought DJI drone, Sony A7R2 and an Apple XR mobile phone here. There is also a must-have power charging treasure.
I visited a total of four islands during this trip to Shengsi, Shengsi Main Island, Huanglong Island, Gouqi Island and Shengshan Island. Each island has supporting B & Bs and delicious food. The infinity pool by the sea looks particularly exciting and is perfect for taking photos.
Shengsi is known as the East China Sea Fish Warehouse. The sea area is rich in yellow croaker, hairtail, cuttlefish, yellow dragon shrimp, etc. During the flood season, tens of thousands of ships gather and masts are like a forest. The fish market is prosperous during the day, and there is little fishing fire at night. It can be called a unique sea view. The most enjoyable thing about traveling to Shengsi is that you can eat the freshest seafood feast every day.

1 Huanglong Island
Autumn is the best travel season. The sun is right, the breeze is not dry, and it coincides with the eight-day holiday of the National Day Mid-Autumn Festival. Island travel has become the first choice for many travel enthusiasts. This time, my trip came to Shengsi in Zhoushan Islands, Zhejiang Province. The sea and sky are in the same color, the scenery is beautiful, and it has the reputation of a fairy mountain on the sea.
The beautiful Huanglong Island is like an open piece of sycamore, standing quietly in a corner of Shengsi Islands.
In the early morning, the weather was very sunny. Starting from Shengsi Island, we took a ferry to Shengsi Huanglong Island. Forty minutes later, we arrived at Huanglong Island. Huanglong has a small island and a small island, and the east-west confrontation is only 500 meters apart. It is named because of the majestic mountains, yellow soil, and the distance looks like the Yellow Dragon Pan Sea. This time we came to Dahuanglong Island.
After arriving at Huanglong Island, we began to climb along the stone steps of Shicun in Donghai to find the strange stone landscape on Yuanbao Mountain. The further we climbed, the wider our vision and the more spectacular the scenery became.
Yuanbao Mountain is named after the two large cloud gems on the top of the mountain. Viewed from a distance, they are perched on the cliff of Chonggang, Yuanbao Mountain, shaped like two gold and silver ingots. According to local people, the big ingot stone weighs about 100 tons and is 6 meters high, and the small ingot stone weighs about 5 tons and is 4 meters long. The two stones have been interdependent for many years. If you can stand on it, you can feel it. The stone is shaking slightly and swaying unsteadily, but it has stood for several years. The four words "East China Sea Yunlong" are written on it, upright and steep. They are inscribed by Zhang Chuanlong during his sea patrol in the fourth year of the Guangxu Dynasty, and are still as clear today.
Standing on the top of the mountain and overlooking, the landscape of Shicun in the East China Sea is like opening up a vast picture of mountains and seas in front of us. The scattered stone houses and winding coastal roads look beautiful and peaceful. The stone houses are all made of local stones, like stone castles on the sea, attract many artists to come and collect the wind.
Not far from Yuan Baoshi, there is a stone house, which looks particularly quiet. It is named Youran Village. Local fishermen live here. Tourists passing by are tired and can come here to rest and drink a bowl of authentic local sea stone flowers., cool and sweet, quench your thirst and moisten your throat.
I only saw sea stone flowers when I was at the seaside. They were made of stone flowers. Many people probably haven't tried them before. I suggest you try them.
Coming down from Yuanbao Mountain and walking into Zhiao Village at the foot of the mountain, busy fishermen by the seaside are mending fishing nets, waiting for the next sail out of Hong Kong.
The picture of the fishing village we see today is full of quiet years, white clouds, and stone houses like a peach blossom garden.
There is also a saying that Huanglong Island has two provinces under one foot. For 76 years from the first year of Guangxu in the Qing Dynasty, 1875, to 1951, the small Huanglong Island has always stood on the two provinces of Jiangsu and Zhejiang. Bounded by the Dashan Dun on the island, the north belongs to Chongming County, Jiangsu Province, and the south belongs to Dinghai Hall, Zhejiang Province.
It was precisely because of this wonderful geographical boundary that when the Kuomintang army captured the able-bodied men, the people on Huanglong Island escaped. At that time, the capture of able-bodied men was carried out one after another in accordance with the provinces. When Jiangsu captured able-bodied men, the people on the island fled to Zhejiang. When Zhejiang was captured, the people fled to Jiangsu, and the people who captured Ding could only look to the world and sigh.
The ship model studio in Zhiao Village is a place with culture and feelings. Mr. Liu Yongyue, a local fisherman, has been fond of handicraft products since childhood. After retirement, he founded this ship model studio himself, from a fisherman to a ship model craftsman., pass on his feelings for the sea through a ship model.
The small ship model embodies the deep feelings of Mr. Liu Yongyue. From the earliest wooden fishing boat with thousands of sails competing to today's steel fishing boats connected end to end, he has witnessed the passage of time of the changes of fishing boats. He also recorded what he saw and heard in the form of words, pictures and ship models, and presented it to every tourist who was curious about the sea.
In the ship model studio, Xiao Ziyu, our colleague, became very interested in weaving various ornaments with knots. Mr. Liu taught them step by step. This process was entertaining and full of fun.
Huanglong people have lived on the sea for generations, giving birth to many magical fishing cultures and fishing customs. With the passage of time, many ancient fishing gear in the past has been replaced by modern fishing gear, and those that have played an important role over the long period of time. Old objects still exude a warm luster, which is worth recording, retaining and inheriting.
The small fishing boat was quietly anchored on the blue sea, complementing each other with the blue sky and white clouds, forming a beautiful sea view. Traveling on the island, only when we arrived at that time could we truly appreciate the depth and vastness of the sea. This is probably the meaning of travel.
When traveling on Shengsi Island, you will always encounter surprises accidentally. Shengsi, a sea wonderland, consists of 404 islands of large and small, seven of which are inhabited. Huanglong Island is one of them. It is famous for its strange stone landscape.
After arriving at the dock for a 40-minute boat ride from Shengsi Island, we arrived at a beautiful house under the leadership of local friends. This is the 2017 Zhejiang Satellite TV filmed the celebrity outdoor architectural creative challenge reality show. Wu Yanzu participated in the design and renovation of the house, which has now become an Internet celebrity check-in point on Huanglong Island.
Shengsi, the outlying island of Shengsi, is full of stories. The coast of Huanglong Island is tortuous and the bays are surrounded by it. This place has a long history. The stone houses scattered on the island are silent under the wind of the sea breeze, interpreting the story of generations of fishermen who have lived here.
The beautiful house is located in Dongzuitou Village, Huanglong Island, Zhoushan. Due to its remote location and backward industries, young people choose to go out to work or move elsewhere, leaving only the elderly at home. Slowly, some elderly people also left with their children, leaving fewer and fewer people behind. They were called uninhabited villages by the locals, but because of their beautiful houses, it became a must-check-in place for many people who come to Huanglong Island.
Walking along the winding path in the mountains, there are six-point flowers in full bloom along the road, and a simple courtyard stands quietly by the sea. This is in 2017, when Zhejiang Satellite TV filmed "Beautiful House", which was rebuilt with local original ecological houses. Looking from a distance, I felt that this house was integrated with the houses of the surrounding fishermen and there was nothing special about it.
The beautiful house was designed and renovated by famous designer Guan Tianyu and six artists Wu Yanzu and Feng Delun. The yard design is very strong, simple and beautiful, reasonable use of space, and full of fashionable and lively atmosphere.
The small courtyard is built next to the mountain. There is a super large terrace on the second floor, which is very suitable for taking photos. We meet with three or five friends and have a drink in the sea. It feels beautiful just thinking about it.
As soon as you walk into the house, there is a wind and rain corridor. A swing made of dead wood and hemp rope faces the floor-to-ceiling glass window facing the sea. You sit on the swing and stare blankly at the sea, thinking about nothing, as if you have returned to childhood, simple and beautiful.
The picture presented in front of us has bright colors and simple and smooth lines. Who would have thought that such a design room design was designed by Wu Yanzu's team in 31 days?
In 2017, Wu Yanzu led a team of star architects composed of 6 stars to Dongzuitou Village in Huanglong. The renovation target selected two houses on the seaside that had been vacant for nearly 20 years. The upper and lower standard heights were nearly 4 meters. They were in disrepair for a long time. The house was invaded by humid sea breeze all year round, and the surface of the house was covered with mold. Coupled with the short time, the renovation was very challenging.
What I like most is the large terrace on the roof. It is very large. Whether day or night, sitting here and enjoying the vast scenery of the sea and listening to the sound of the waves beating against the rocks, I feel very beautiful. If friends from three to five get together here, chatting in a daze, it is a good time in life.
The terrace is also a good spot for taking photos and taking pictures. Sitting casually with your loved one will give you a good scenery.
The beautiful house was transformed from two old houses. It passed through corridors with sparse flowers and trees, and it gave a different feeling. The finally renovated house made full use of large pieces of glass to create floor-to-ceiling windows. The main body was made of reinforced concrete."Box" consists of two courtyards and upper and lower courtyards. The simple and lively style makes the stone house with little space full of design.
We have a natural affinity for nature. Facing the sea, the warm spring flowers bloom, is the poem and distance that everyone yearn for.
Designer Guan Tianqi said: Faced with the excellent natural landscape, any newly added elements appear redundant and powerless, so the newly built house chose "Forgiveness" to express respect and reserve as much as possible, without much to show off, and more reflects warmth and respect. The "new" and "old" understand and respect each other and coexist harmoniously. The current "aesthetics" and the "relics" of the past merge and prosper together.
The vast and far-reaching island scenery will always impress us accidentally. Huanglong Island is full of beautiful scenery. As long as we are good at discovering, every photo will look beautiful.
2 Gouqi Island
The beautiful Shengsi Islands include 404 islands of large and small sizes. These small islands in the vast sea are either dreamy or magical, scattered in a clear blue. Gouqi Island is one of the special ones. Gouqi Island is relatively close to Zhoushan and Shanghai, because Chinese medicinal wolfberry shrubs are everywhere near Gouqi Ao on the island, hence its name.
Goji Island has a long history, beautiful scenery, and has the reputation of the Little Greece of the East. The small houses on the island seem to be inlaid on a cliff, stacked on top of each other, and are also called the "Potala Palace on the Sea" by photographers.
Goji Island has a high forest coverage rate. There are many places worth visiting on the island, such as the Western Paradise, the Mountain and Sea Wonders Monument, the Tiger Stone, the Water of Dragons, and the Island Sand Monument. The Mountain and Sea Wonders are not only the best place to enjoy the sea view, but also a place with a story.
The time goes back to the Ming Dynasty. Hou Jigao, a military general of Qi Jiguang, a national hero of the Ming Dynasty, was attracted by the mountain and sea scenery here when he led troops to Gouqi to supervise the news. On the second main peak of Gouqi Island, there is a majestic stone that leaves the four characters and six inscriptions of "Mountain and Sea Wonders". When we come to the Mountain and Sea Wonders Scenic Area, we can still appreciate the content of this inscription.
High above the Mountain and Sea Wonders Scenic Area, you can overlook the scenery of Gouqi Island. Colorful fishing boats are anchored on the blue sea, and dots of white floating rafts add a romantic color to this sea area. Gouqi Island is a key fishery town in Zhejiang Province. It has a winding coastline and excellent marine culture conditions. It is known as a sea ranch and a famous hometown of mussels. Under the floating raft, there are abundant seafood.
The clear blue sea water and the greenery spreading islands, the picture in front of you is a computer screensaver with just a click. Such a moving island scenery also attracts tourists from all over the world. Gouqi Island has a simple and rich fishing village style and a pleasant climate. With four distinct seasons, it is an ideal place for tourism, sightseeing and summer vacation.
Not far from the stone tablet of the wonders of the mountains and seas, there is a small Mazu Temple. Standing here for aerial photography has the broadest view. I also thank my friends who helped me record my work photos. The beauty of the journey is because I have like-minded traveling companions., it is more fun.
The charming island scenery is exciting. On the island, there are many unique sea view B & Bs worthy of our nostalgia. The Qianmo Inn on Gouqi Island is next to the sea. The owner of the B & B has also carefully arranged some suitable for taking photos and checking in. Small scenes, swinging to watch the sea, or taking a nap in the endless swimming pool, this feeling is free and comfortable.
Beautiful scenery and beautiful accommodation food have always been an integral part of travel, and it is indispensable. Traveling on the island, the seafood feast every day is very enjoyable. The Haixi Pavilion where we stayed on Gouqi Island is located in Jinsha Lane, Miaogan Village, Gouqi Township, Shengsi. Not only is the scenery beautiful, the hotel has a separate courtyard, sea view room, and the beach in front of it. The boss also cooks good dishes, and seafood is his best at.
The autumn wind blows and the crab feet are itchy. In our country, there is a saying that there is no banquet without crabs. In Shengsi in autumn, swimming crabs are the best to eat. A bite of crab meat with the taste of the sea will be full of crab aroma and delicious.
The mountains and seas are far away, and the world is full of fireworks. The beauty of Shengsi is dark blue and blue with suitable shades. It is a freehand brushwork that can be transformed into poetry and painting with a casual pat. The beautiful scenery, food and beautiful accommodation make up a perfect island trip.
Island travel is beautiful and romantic. When the sun sets in the west, when we stand on the reef and look in the direction of the sunset, the sea breeze gently blows against our cheeks. It is gentle and comfortable. The sky and sea are the same color, and they are all dyed warm by the halo of the sunset. Color, occasionally seabirds flash past the air, their cheerful cries are still on the sea, but their figures have long flown away.
This is Gouqi Island on Shengsi Islands in Zhejiang Province. Time here is very slow and the sea breeze here is particularly gentle.
This time my trip to Shengsi Island was an in-depth tour. After staying on Shengsi Island for two days, I then visited Huanglong Island, Gouqi Island and Shengshan Island.
It takes a little more than an hour to take the 7:50 ferry from Shengsi Island to Gouqi Island in the morning. Gouqi Island is the second largest island among the more than 400 islands in Shengsi. It has the reputation of the Little Greece of the East. During this trip to Shengsi, I was lucky to encounter sunny and good weather. Such weather is good for taking photos and will always add color to the trip.
1 Fishing at sea
Gouqi Island is the second largest island in Shengsi. It is strategically located. It is 50 nautical miles away from Luchao Port in Shanghai and 300 nautical miles away from Nagasaki Island in Japan. Shanghai can directly reach Gouqi Island. At Shenjiawan Pier, there is a boat every day. Coming from Shengsi Island, there are two boats a day. Generally, when traveling to Shengsi, you will spend two days on Shengsi Island before coming back to Gouqi Island.
The sunny and good weather is very suitable for sea fishing. The coolest thing about this island trip is to go fishing with local fishermen. Nowadays, sea fishing has developed into a relatively mature tourism project. Even people who cannot fish will not be disappointed when they come to Gouqi Island.
If you want to experience real sea fishing in the sea, remember to make an appointment in advance. Sea fishing costs 150 yuan per person, which takes about one and a half hours. There are many fishing spots on Gouqi Island. According to the weather conditions of the day, boatmen will recommend better fishing areas.
Our fishing boat set off and passed countless floating rafts along the way. The boats shuttled along the water road between the floating rafts, which looked very spectacular. Gouqi Island is a key fishery town and has the reputation of the hometown of mussels. Thousands of acres of mussels look endless, forming a unique scenery.
Colorful fishing boats and floating rafts interweave into a beautiful sea view. This is also a favorite scene for photography enthusiasts. Many friends who like photography will come here specially at the sunrise and sunset.
Ships in the sea can reach the fishing point in half an hour. If the fishermen who brought us here think this point is more suitable for fishing, they will stop.
This was my first time fishing in the sea. I didn't expect the fishing tools to be so simple. A rope and a sinker. The sinker is a small tool like an iron anchor. It is used to allow the rope to hang deeper to the bottom of the sea. According to the captain of our boat, this rope will glow when it is placed in the sea, and the fish will naturally bite the hook when they see it.
After putting the rope into the sea, we must constantly shake the rope with our hands to attract fish in the sea to bite the hook. When we feel the rope in our hands being pulled, we can close the net. At the beginning, the sea area where we were located,
No fish have been hooked. The boat owner said that in the morning, a group of tourists with me caught a lot of fish here, but they might have caught all of them. We changed the sea area again. At this time, everyone really had a harvest. Everyone caught fish one after another.
The moment the fish took the bait, I was full of surprises. I didn't expect that such a simple operation could catch fish in the sea. It was much simpler than I expected. Most of the fish we caught this time were of the same species, probably related to the weather and the sea area.
2 Sunset on Gouqi Island
After returning from sea fishing, the weather is very good today, and I will definitely encounter a beautiful sunset. I met my friends and came to the Blue Ocean Ranch of Ganxie Wharf to find the best sunset shooting spots along the coastline.
Goji Island is full of beautiful scenery, and the sea pastures are well-deserved. When we stood quietly on the reef and waited for the sunset, the scenery in front of us was still heart-warming. White clouds were blooming, and countless fishing boats were moored on the sparkling sea. The picture was very beautiful.
The process of watching the sunset is a process that requires painstaking waiting. During the journey, I have waited countless sunsets in different places. There are times when I see the sunset full of joy, and there are times when I return disappointed. No matter what kind of experience, it is an unforgettable memory during the journey.
Sunset on Gouqi Island comes as scheduled. The mountains, sea clouds, and me sitting on the reef are all covered in golden sunset makeup. During the journey, we not only use our camera to take photos, but also bring to photography. There are also books we have read, movies we have seen, music we have listened to, roads we have traveled, and people we have loved.
The changes in light and shadow in nature bring us emotion, always silent but intense. On the sparkling sea of Gouqi Island, there are occasional fishing boats rushing past me. It doesn't know that in my eyes, it has also become the most beautiful scenery.
As the sun melted into the gold, I slowly reached out and tried to touch the brilliance of Gouqi Island at this moment. This warm picture was frozen and remained deep in my memory. Our agreement with a certain place became clear and clear at the moment of departure. Travel in Shengsi is a place I have been longing for for a long time. At the moment I arrived at Gouqi Island, the sea slowly unveiled its mysterious veil in front of me.
4 Shengshan Island
How many earth secrets does nature hide? It's only when we arrive and see it with our own eyes that it's clear.
During this trip to Shengsi, I accidentally came to an uninhabited village on Shengshan Island. This is a fishing village that is isolated on the sea. Because no one has lived there for many years, the houses in the village are covered with green plants, as if they were left by the sea. The Wizard of Oz is elegant and peaceful. What on earth made such a beautiful seaside fishing village become an uninhabited village? With curiosity, I decided to go into the village to find out.
The most beautiful uninhabited village is located in the northeast of Shengshan Island in Shengsi, Zhejiang Province. Its name is Houtou Bay. This village used to be inhabited by more than 3000 people, but now it is empty, leaving only dozens of houses scattered along the sea. Many of the houses have been in disrepair for a long time and have become the world of creeper. Because of the quiet environment and special landscape, it has become a check-in point for tourists to visit Shengsi.
Go down the stone steps to the uninhabited village. It's quite smooth to walk. Before entering the village, you can overlook the entire village from the halfway hillside. The houses nestled between the mountains and seas are scattered. From the doors and windows of the house, you can feel that there is indeed no one living here, and the scenery here is also very beautiful. It makes people wonder why the villagers would rather give up such a beautiful living environment and move to another place to live?
According to data research, in 1980, Houtouwan Village was still one of the Fuyu villages in Shengshan Town at that time. Most of the residents here built buildings and courtyards, and its prosperous scene was known as Shengshan's "Little Taiwan". From the pictures we are seeing now, we can feel that most of the villages are two-story buildings. Back then, Houtouwan Village was still very prosperous.
However, due to inconvenient transportation and cramped living areas, villagers have been relocated one after another since the 1990s. In 2002, Houtou Bay, which was empty, was officially evacuated, and it became today's uninhabited village.
Walking through the uninhabited village, I saw that many houses had become ruins, with no doors and windows, and green plants crawling on the walls. Due to the development of tourism, more and more tourists are coming here, and many walls are also set up with conspicuous signs to remind everyone that this is a dangerous building and do not enter.
Looking at the uninhabited village from different directions is a completely different feeling. When you walk into the village and look out, you will find that it is really a quiet Wizard of Oz. Houses full of ivy are built against the mountains, and the green green mountains form a green picture.
The entrance fee for the unmanned village is 50 yuan, which has become an Internet celebrity check-in spot for Shengsi tourism. It is also very suitable for taking small and fresh style photos. The old houses with lush green and clear seas have beautiful and romantic pictures, making it a tourist's favorite Internet celebrity check-in spot. On the wall of the village, a very special poster was posted, carefully marking the best photo spots in the village, so that interested friends can check in next to each other.
How were uninhabited villages discovered by people? It turned out that after some netizens came here accidentally, they took a group of photos of "Chinese fishing villages swallowed by nature" and quickly became popular after posting them online. In the photo, the house built next to the mountain is empty, contrasting with the green creepers everywhere outside the wall, so that some people describe this "uninhabited village occupied by green leaves" as "like a fairy tale of the fairy tale."
The houses scattered on the mountains are basically small buildings with two floors and three floors. It was not easy to build houses in such an environment back then. In my opinion, the scenery here is extremely beautiful and the environment is also very quiet. When you open the window, you will see the blue sky and the sea.
Passing through the village, walking down the stone steps, we arrived at the village dock. Looking at the abandoned sea view houses that were empty one by one, I still felt very moved. Such a beautiful living environment has become an unmanned village due to transportation. The poetry and distance that people yearn for is still inseparable from the fireworks life of daily necessities, rice, oil and salt.
Many tourists who come to the uninhabited village find the most beautiful angles to take photos. If there is enough time, I think it is best to visit the uninhabited village in the morning and evening.
Over time, the once-prosperous seaside fishing village has become the most beautiful uninhabited village. It is like a fishery culture textbook left for future generations. It clearly records the once prosperous scene of Houtouwan Village and has become a famous tourist destination in Shengsi. Internet celebrity check-in place.
The last stop of our trip to Shengsi Island, we came to Shengshan Island, the easternmost island in the Zhoushan Islands. It is separated from Gouqi Island by only a bridge. Fishing songs, fishing fires and fishing smoke filled this island with human fireworks. Along the long coastline, we went to find the story that belongs to Shengshan Island.
Gouqi Island and Shengshan Island are separated by a cross-sea bridge. Shengshan Bridge is also one of the eighteen scenic spots in Shengshan. Therefore, if you have enough time to come here, you will have to visit both islands so that you will not regret it.
The East Cliff is located on the easternmost part of Shengshan Island. It is also the scenic spot closest to the open sea. The scenery of the East Cliff is different from the scenery we see on other islands. It is more steep and magnificent. The continuous cliffs stretch straight into the sea, and the waves beat the shore and are magnificent.
When many people hear the name of the East Cliff Cliff, they will think that such a scenic road must be difficult to walk. In fact, the East Cliff Cliff refers to the landform here, which is indeed as spectacular as the name, but the roads in the scenic area are very easy to walk. Even children can easily walk the entire journey.
Standing on a cliff several meters high, watching the stormy waves beating against the shore, the waves washing violently against the reef opposite, and the sea breeze blowing, I suddenly feel the insignificance of human beings and have deep awe of nature. The stones on the cliff on the east cliff are all strange, among which the Yuanbao stone is full of fun and is extremely resistant to viewing. There are also many cliff stone carvings since the Ming and Qing Dynasties in the scenic area. The strokes are powerful and are all made by Hou Jigao, the commander of the Ming Dynasty, Zhang Wenzhi, the commander of the military, and Chen Mengdou, the general of the Ming Dynasty. Fans who like calligraphy can take a good look at it.
Because of the steep terrain of the East Cliff Cliff, there will be dedicated staff here to take care of the terrain here. The caregivers know the terrain like the back of their hands. Even taking pictures there is the best and understanding it. When we take pictures, we will enthusiastically tell us the best shooting position, which is really cute.
For photography enthusiasts, being able to shoot the sunrise and sunset during the journey will definitely add a lot of color to this trip. The East Cliff is also the best place to shoot the sunrise on the island. At four or five in the morning, the gushing red sun rises from the sea, and the golden sunshine shines on the sea. It must be very exciting. Because of my itinerary, I missed the shooting of the sunrise, which is a small regret and laying the groundwork for coming back next time.
Along the trail, we walk to the highest point of the cliff and look into the distance. The sea and sky are in the same color. Fishing boats shuttle leisurely through the sea. Traveling on the island will always allow us to relax our body and mind in the vast scenery.
During this island trip, my favorite scenery to see most is the endless and spectacular picture of thousands of floating rafts laid out in the sea. The fishing boats anchored are on standby at any time, complementing the floating rafts, forming a unique scenery of the island.
I visited a total of four islands during this trip to Shengsi, Shengsi Main Island, Huanglong Island, Gouqi Island and Shengshan Island. Each island has supporting B & Bs and delicious food. The infinity pool by the sea looks particularly exciting and is perfect for taking photos.
Living in a favorite B & B, having nothing to do, and reading a favorite book with the sea breeze is one of the blessings in life.
Shengsi is known as the East China Sea Fish Warehouse. The sea area is rich in yellow croaker, hairtail, cuttlefish, yellow dragon shrimp, etc. During the flood season, tens of thousands of ships gather and masts are like a forest. The fish market is prosperous during the day, and there is little fishing fire at night. It can be called a unique sea view. The most enjoyable thing about traveling to Shengsi is that you can eat the freshest seafood feast every day.
During this island trip, there was a seafood feast every day. I spent six days and five nights of Shengsi travel with the satisfaction of my taste buds. I was impressed by the Shengshan snail sauce. Take fresh yellow or spicy snails, wash, mash, remove the shells, marinate with salt until fragrant, and add sugar, cooking wine and other seasonings to serve. The snail meat is tender, smooth, delicious, and has a unique taste. It is also a good seasoning to go with rice.
Autumn is the fattest season for swimming crabs. At this time, the trip to Shengsi Island, with beautiful scenery and delicious food, constitutes a perfect slow time for island travel.
Ancient and long fishing songs floated in the sea breeze, telling the legendary and melodious story of Shengsi on the outlying island. They were meaningful, lasting and never tired of hearing them.
