Dongxing City-Fangchenggang Strange Rock Beach

Today's itinerary is not long, from the city to Zhushan Village to play, to the strange rock beach in the afternoon, the whole journey is 60 or 70 kilometers.

There are many attractions to visit, including the No. 1 boundary marker of the Qing Dynasty, the starting point of zero kilometers (the square connected by the mountain and the sea), the beach of Zhushan Village, the Bailong Fort, and the strange rock beach.

All are free attractions.

Wake up early in the morning and eat a Shaxian snack opposite the hotel. A steamed dumpling is really cheap at 5 yuan, and the black-bone chicken soup and pork rib soup seem to be 8 yuan a cup.

After breakfast, proceed to the No. 1 Boundary Monument of Qing Dynasty.

As a result, I went in the wrong direction and walked to the seaside of Zhushan Village. I asked passers-by. The high red and blue sign in the distance was the square connected by the mountain and the sea, and the boundary monument was also there.

If you come, you will be at ease, go down and take a look.

I found a lot of small crabs under the stone

It is a very small fiddler crab, and the number is surprisingly large. There are four or five of them when you remove the stones, but they run very quickly, drilling into the gaps in the stones or holes in the sand.

Hurry up and take pictures, there are at least 5 under this rock...1,2,3 up!

I go, there is not a single hair.

There are many holes on the beach, and inside are the nests of fiddler crabs, which can be found out as soon as you dig your fingers.

There is one less one in a hole, two or three more.

I breathe on the beach when no one is there, and the ground is everywhere, and when people walk over, they get into the hole.

Fiddler crabs are characterized by a pair of large and small claws. When encountering an enemy situation, the big claws will wave "Don’t get close, don’t get close". Fiddler crabs are also edible, but they are smaller and have less meat. It can be fried or fried. Some villagers on the beach will use this crab to make sauce.

There is a lot of mud on this beach. No, my hole slippers are stuck, and the soles of my shoes have fallen off. It happened to be caught by my wife.

We are not going to get some food, grab a few and play.

There are many ducks on the beach of Zhushan Village. They are looking for food on the beach after low tide. The eggs laid by these ducks are called sea duck eggs, usually 8-10 yuan a catty.

Continue to walk forward, the beach in front is harder, go to wash your feet.

Nikky stepped on a shell and dug it out to see that it was still alive.

There is someone in front, come and take a look.

An old man is digging shellfish on the beach

It’s the kind that the doll stepped on. Because of language barrier, I didn’t know exactly what shellfish was called; it probably meant 6 yuan a catty, and asked me if I wanted it. This requires a lot of water to soak, and I have no conditions. what.

The hand presses down, the person walks backward, and the waist drives the tow rope, like a plow.

This area is a bay, and the nearby sea water mixed with sand rushes to the shore, looking not so clear.

Released fiddler crabs

Small things run fast

Some shells were picked up, and traces of farmed oysters could be seen.

It seems to be raining heavily over the square in the distance

It's almost 11 o'clock, let's go

Several villagers came back from the seaside quarrying shellfish and asked about it, saying that there was nothing to gain today.

Take a look at this beach, it's quite big.

papaya

I have bought coconuts several times during this trip. The area around the scenic area is basically 10 yuan each, and the roadside stalls can be bought for 5-8 yuan, and the old and tender ones are only a price.

It's Boundary Monument No. 1

The No. 1 boundary marker of the Qing Dynasty is located at the intersection of the land and sea on the national border.

The starting point of the road along the border, zero kilometers.

It was raining heavily on the square, and the blue sky and white clouds were still in the distance.

This is the square connected by the mountain and the sea

Let’s take a look at the footprints of this border tour, Ruili

Wanding

I didn't see Nan Umbrella and went straight to Pingxiang.

Dongxing, where it is today.

Leave the square at noon and prepare to go to Zhushan Village for lunch.

Seeing an old man plowing a field with buffalo in the scorching sun, this kind of scene has not been seen for many years. With such advanced technology today, this ancient production method is estimated to not last long.

Guangxi is rich in longan (fresh), also called longan (dried). Does the "longan" Gui refers to Guangxi? It is sold at the market for 7 yuan a catty, and the price is a bit more expensive than in Sichuan. Chongqing should only need 4-5 yuan a catty.

To the head of the banyan tree in Zhushan Village

There are several fishermen's restaurants that specialize in seafood.

We were not familiar with it either, so we just found one.

Eat the sea by the sea

I ordered a fresh fish soup. It’s so fresh. I didn’t remember the name of the fish. It was 38 yuan (three or four, about six or seven taels, 58 yuan if you ordered one catty directly). During this time, it’s not allowed to go to sea. For fishing, seafood is not too cheap.

Flower crabs cost 58 yuan a catty, which is cheaper than Jintan. Yesterday it was 68 yuan a catty.

Steamed scallops with garlic, 28 yuan per serving.

Sandworm, this cooked rice porridge is very fresh.

There is a Catholic church on the road

Door locked

When I came out from the church, I saw cold cakes (said to be made of rice noodles). The locals and villagers were buying them. We also bought some to taste. They are smoother but very chewy. There are two types, sweet and salty. , I think sweet ones are better.

On the way to the rocky beach

The strange rock beach is in Bailong Village. There is an ancient fort in the village. I am going to see it. The navigation has actually copied a shortcut, which is rather bad.

Then I asked about it. In fact, I can go around the road and walk a few kilometers.

Bailong Fort is free to visit.

Don’t type this, just Baidu:

The Bailong Fort is at the tip of Bailongwei on the Jiangshan Peninsula. It was when Zhang Zhidong was the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi in the late Qing Dynasty, when the Gongfu of Haikou took charge of Qiongjun Youying Chen Liangjie from the thirteenth year of Guangxu to the twenty-first year of Guangxu (1895 ) Built. Bailong Fort is located on four small hills near the seashore on Jiangshan Peninsula, Fangcheng District, Fangchenggang City, Guangxi. It is currently a key cultural relic protection unit in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region. Since the outbreak of the Opium War, China's closed door to self-defense has been opened, and Western powers have continued to invade. In order to consolidate coastal defense, in the thirteenth year of Guangxu (1887), the Governor of Guangdong and Guangxi Zhang Zhidong personally led his troops to survey the Zhushan, Jiangping, and Bailongwei peninsulas in Dongxing City, and covered four small hills on the Bailongwei peninsula. Four forts, "Bailongtai", "Genkengtai", "Longzhentai", and "Longxiangtai" were built on the top, collectively called "Bailong Fort."

Bailongtai is very open here, and the villagers said that they can drive to the beach, but there are not so many beaches.

This door is usually locked. When we came, we just met local villagers who came to visit.

The rocky beach is here, the beach is not long and there are not too many people

There is a couple ready to take wedding photos

It looks relatively clean and there is almost no rubbish.

Many people climbed up to the rocky beach to take pictures

Several fishing boats parked on the rocky beach

I asked the locals and said that they can go fishing at 300 yuan/boat, and the harvest will be all for the guests. It is late today and my daughter wants to swim. I plan to go to sea tomorrow morning.

The reception capacity of Weird Rock Beach is limited, and there are no rooms at four or five o'clock in the afternoon.

The weekend price is 150 yuan per room, and parking is free.

I hurried to find accommodation in the village. This house is in good condition, with air-conditioning and hot water. It is about 1 km away from the sea.

The small sign on the side of the road is not very eye-catching

Nearly six o'clock, there were fewer people on the rocky beach, and they all went swimming.

The turbulent waves hit the shore and rolled up a thousand piles of snow.

Compared to Jintan, there are really very few tourists here.

The rocky beach can be walked past, and you can go to the farthest point. It is better to take pictures of sunrise and sunset over there.

It's six o'clock, and some guests go fishing.

This friend has just returned from fishing. A Chinese horseshoe crab, with blue blood, is a national second-class protected animal. He said to sell it to me for 20 yuan, but I dare not ask for it, haha.

After swimming until dark, and coming back from the bath, the seafood in the strange rocky beach is almost sold out. Only the prawns cost 143 jin. Forget it, I will go out to sea tomorrow.

Oyster omelette, fried squid, and another water spinach, economical. This squid must be eaten, it tastes amazing.
