Sea Xianshan Dongmenyu
Author: Zhuang Jianhua
Because of a movie "Left Ear", Dongshan Island in Fujian has gradually become known to the public.
One weekend, a few of our photographers drove from Xiamen and set off on the Shenhai Expressway to Dongshan. An hour later, our car drove into Dongshan Island and arrived at the Tongshan Fengdong Stone Scenic Area. Instead of being obsessed with the Fengdong Stone, which is known as the "No. 1 Stone in the World", we bought a boat ticket to Dongmen Island and started a journey to the fairy mountain on the sea.

Pingtan Stones can talk
Author: Li Qirong
"Pingtan Island, long stones do not grow grass, wind and sand run around the ground, houses are like bunkers." This folk song says that Pingtan has many stones and stone houses.
Pingtan Island is rich in stone, and the stones in Pingtan can speak. It not only expresses the hospitality of Pingtan people, but also expresses the rich customs of Pingtan stones, and also expresses the survival wisdom, hard work and courage of Pingtan people for generations.
Haven't seen you, the many pictographic stones led by the monkeys in Nanzhai Mountain, the double lions playing in the water in Nanwan and the numerous sea erosion immortal landforms are also waiting for you.
Pingtan's unique sea erosion landform makes the island's erosion cliffs, sea erosion caves, sea erosion platforms, and sea erosion terraces scattered. Xianren Well, Xianren Peak, Xianren Platform, Xianren Cave, and Jin Guanyin all tell the past of Pingtan. More than 40 pictograms such as Camel Rock, Divine Turtle Stone, Mandarin Duck Wings, and Leopard Patrol Mountain have made Nanzhai Mountain on the island a famous rock zoo on Lan Island. Rocks such as Monkey King Welcoming Guests, Lover Stones, Twin Turtle Dialogues and other rocks make you think of them in a realistic way. The stones in Tannan Bay are unique, with the two lions playing in the water and the toad mouth welcoming the sun.
But the most amazing thing is the stone house in Pingtan. Pingtan's stone houses can not only speak, but also sing. Pingtan's stone houses are everywhere, especially Baisheng Village in Baiqing Township, Nanzhong Village in Tangyu Township, and Dongbi Village in Xibi Village in Beicuo Town. The stone house is made of stone, and even the heavy objects pressed with tiles are small pieces of stone. Some people say that Shicuo is the crystallization of Pingtan's wisdom of survival in fighting the sky and the earth. Some people also say that stone houses are the "living fossils" of the island's residential culture. This is true at all. The stones all over the mountains and fields are inexhaustible and useless. The rock not only provides cheap building materials for local villagers to build houses, but also blocks the typhoon from the craze. Living in a stone house, it’s warm in winter and cool in summer!
Pingtan Island is rich in stone, which naturally leads to many skilled craftsmen. The ingenious craftsmanship of skilled craftsmen has made Pingtan famous. It is said that there are many people engaged in tunnel excavation on Pingtan Island, almost reaching a monopoly level. This cannot be said to be a "by-product" of the abundant stone production.
The beautiful sea erosion landform, the pictographic stones that are both real and illusory, and the picturesque Pingtan stone houses. These objects that cannot be separated from stones all tell the creation of nature and the intelligence of Pingtan people. When you see those silent stones, can you say that the stones in Pingtan cannot speak?

Muyu Beach
Author: Zhou Qi
Muyu is a small island located in the southern part of Fuqing Hapu Town , only 50 kilometers away from Fuqing city. To the south is Putian Nanri Island, to the east is Pingtan Haitan Island, to the west is Putian Bay, and to the north is Niutouwei Wharf in Shapu Town. Muyu Island has an area of only 3.09 square kilometers. The highest point on the island is 106 meters above sea level. The coastline is winding, there are 36 bays of all sizes and 12 beaches. There are many unmanned islands nearby, such as Niuer Island and Snake Island. There are more than 30 people and uninhabited islands, including flat sand and fine waves, rising tides, stars move and turning, and mountains and green waters. In ancient times, this place was used as a checkpoint to monitor the ocean conditions and became the eyes and ears of military fortresses, so it was called Muyu. Since the entire island looks like a galloping horse, and the highest mountain in the east is quite like a towering horse head, the locals have a popular and intuitive name for it: Wild Horse Island .
Muyu is still a small island in its original ecology. There are several small villages on the island, hundreds of households with more than 500 people, and there is neither industrial pollution nor sewage flowing. The three peaks on the island stand side by side, with strange rocks and steep rocks on the mountain and lush vegetation. Especially the sea surface is vast and the coast is fine sand like a wetland, which has become a scenic spot for summer camping and outings. There are 12 beaches in the meuyu Island, the largest of which are Dongtianwan and Nantai O. A resort has been built near Dongtian Bay, so there are many tourists here. In midsummer, various swimsuits on the beach are colorful. The blue sea, the light blue sky, the floating white clouds, the floating islands in the distance are like a small boat, and the crowds playing and playing in the shallow sea add vitality to the flat and boundless beach.
Dongtian Bay is a small meniscus bay with fine sand and gentle terrain. The waves of waves gently surge up and retreat gently on the clean beach, leaving some ripples and white foam, and they keep rushing back and washing the reefs on the shore. On both sides of the bay are towering mountains, with exposed rocks standing majestic like warriors, and clusters of green shrubs grow freely on the cliffs between the cracks of the rocks. Long wild vines are surging in the sand dunes on the high ground, and small purple, pink and yellow flowers are tenaciously blooming in the scorching summer sun, showing the world its vitality. Dozens of reefs at the end of the bay are scattered in the shallow seas, allowing the sea water to erode rhythmically, dripping water through the stones, the sun and the moon change, and tens of millions of years of erosion have made these reefs form their own independent forms, which is endless to be appreciated.
If Dongtian Bay is a bay paradise, then Nan Tai O is a quiet leisure destination. Because the journey is long and the walking is quite difficult, people are greedy for convenience, so few tourists come here. Therefore, the beaches in Nam Tai O are rarely invaded and are in a natural and native wilderness state. There are reefs of all sizes distributed on the coast, covered with stripes and erosion marks, telling the world about the journey of changing the world and the wind and smoke from ancient times to the present.
Muyu beaches, each of which has become the sea world that tourists yearn for, each of which shows a natural and impressive charm, and each of which has transformed into a dazzling stream of light.

Romantic Gulangyu
Author: Lai Chenghang
As soon as we arrived at Xiamen Station, we headed straight to Xiamen Wharf and took a ferry to Gulangyu. From a distance, Gulang Island looks like a piece of jasper embedded on the blue sea. In the afternoon, Gulangyu was given the gift of the sun, and shedded the thin layer of veil, vividly showing her charm. While visiting the piano hall, I happened to meet someone playing "Song of Gulangyu", which was slow and cheerful.
There are no traffic on Gulang Island. There are only electric bikes and cyclists around the island, and more pedestrians watching the scenery while walking. There are many tourists on weekends, but not crowded. The happy couple who made a special trip to the island to take wedding photos has also become a beautiful scenery, attracting the envious eyes of many tourists. After
was on the island, I felt relaxed instantly. There are no traffic lights, no car whistles, green trees and red flowers on both sides of the road, snacks and a wide range of souvenirs everywhere are dazzling. The city near the sea always gives people a fresh and romantic feeling. The boy's white shirt and the girl's skirt are blown by the sea breeze, as if he is in a youth movie, showing the sunshine and vitality of young people. Happy people meet a beautiful island, as if everything in the world is getting better.
Xiamen's sea is very distinctive. The waves are rhythmic and undulating. There is no waves surging or black blue, giving people a feeling of fear. Lying on the fine sand beach, blowing the sea breeze and listening to the sound of the sea, it is very warm and comfortable.

Impression Meizhou Island
Author: Lou Rong
Fujian Putian Meizhou Island has been famous for a long time and has always wanted to go and have a look. Not long ago, it was finally completed.
A group of four of us took a car from Putian to Wenjia Pier and flew to Meizhou Island. Standing on the deck of the ferry, facing the salty sea breeze, looking at the sea and sky, and guessing with your companions what kind of character is Mazu ? At this time, an old man in sixty-year-old holding incense, paper and a small firecracker in his hand, wearing a white T-shirt with the words "Mazu Blessing" and a mouthful of Minnan Mandarin answered us. Mazu, whose original name is Lin Moniang, is from Meizhou Island. She ascended to heaven and became an immortal at the age of 27. Although his life is short, he has left behind countless moving deeds to save the world. After her death, in order to commemorate her, people built a temple on the peak of her ascending on the island in 987 AD.This is the "ancestral temple" of more than 5,000 Mazu temples in more than 20 countries and regions around the world. After
on Meizhou Island, we first went to ancestral temple . This place was rebuilt in 1978, with halls, pavilions, buildings, yards, pavilions, etc., forming an ancient building complex that is staggered and magnificent. The first thing that catches your eye is the Yimen, commonly known as the "Imperial Gate", which implies that Mazu was granted by emperors of all dynasties. After passing the ritual gate, I climbed up the steps and arrived at the main hall, also known as the "Crown Prince's Hall". It was named after the renovation and repair of the main hall by the governor of Fujian in the Kangxi Dynasty and the crown prince Taibao Minister of War. Bypass the main hall and turn left to the bedroom hall. This is the main hall for worshiping Mazu and holding sacrifices. Looking around the bedroom, there were many red lights lit around, and there was a name posted on the lamp base. The staff said that a red light represents a person. As long as you donate a certain amount of incense, you can light a red light and write your name to get Mazu's blessing. The stone statues of Mazu, Mazu of the Song Dynasty from the Ming Dynasty, stone engraved imperial edicts and a seal of imperial gifts from the Qing Dynasty that are also preserved in the hall, which can be called the "Four Treasures" of the temple. After leaving the bedroom, I climbed to the dressing building. Legend has it that this is the place where Mazu dressed up. There is a long jade scepter carved with nine dragons. It is said that this is the scepter that Mazu took. Just touch it three times and you will be able to achieve your wish.
Accompanied by the sound of firecrackers, we came to Mazu Cultural Park , which contains Mazu stone sculptures, Mazu story group sculptures, stele forests, "The No. 1 Seal in the World" stone carvings and other attractions. The most famous one is Mazu stone sculptures, which are a famous symbol. The direction Mazu is facing is Taiwan, where about 70% of the pilgrims come from Taiwan. It is the wish of many Taiwanese compatriots to achieve the reunification of the motherland.
Leaving Mazu Cultural Park, we come to Ancestral Temple New Hall . This is a five-jin Song complex with a total length of 466 meters, a width of 99 meters, and a drop of 68 meters. It is known as the "Potala Palace on the Sea". Among them, the Tianhou Hall covers an area of 987 square meters and can accommodate thousands of people to worship at the same time. In the middle is enshrined in the 6-meter-high statue of Mazu, with its powerful power. She is accompanying two female heroes, Chen Jinggu and Qian Siniang. There are eight great gods, including Yao Qisheng and Shi Lang and , and the surroundings are filled with red lights of peace.
left Tianhou Hall, walked down more than 100 stone steps to days later square . The square is about 10,000 square meters, and there is a 28-meter-high large theater in front of it, with double-story viewing platforms and corridors on both sides. This is the place where the ancestral temple holds large-scale festivals and grand events. At this time, a team of 100 people appeared, with men, women, young and old wearing all colors of clothes. Eight strong men were carrying a sedan chair with statues of Mazu on them. They walked along the way, shaking the sedan chairs far and wide. The person who heard the news said: This is a fisherman from a nearby fishing village who came to invite Mazu. The more Mazu shook in a sedan chair, the greater the magic power he invited back, the more he could bless the fishermen who went out to sea.
When I left Meizhou Island, I saw the statue of Mazu still staring into the distance, and the gaze seemed to be longing for the wanderer to return to my mother's arms as soon as possible.
