Xigang Salt Field on Dongshan Island, Zhangzhou

Most online guides about Dongshan Island recommend popular spots like Nanmen Bay, Double-sided Sea, Maluan Bay, and Left Ear Rooftop. However, near Gongqian Village at the southern end of Dongsheng Island, there is a stunning salt field—the Xigang Salt Field! The salt fields spread between the mountains and sea, resembling a palette painted by God. Navigate to "Xigang Salt Field" to get there. The salt field is quite remote and requires self-driving; you can drive directly onto the small roads within the salt field. The salt field is vast and flat, and a drone is needed to capture its full expanse and colors.
