Fuzhou Pingtan: I Announce This Is the Most Stunning Sunrise I've Ever Seen

| I Announce This Is the Most Stunning Sunrise I've Ever Seen. Fuzhou Pingtan: I Announce This Is the Most Stunning Sunrise I've Ever Seen To catch the first glimpse of dawn, my friends and I were too excited to sleep the night before, setting our alarms for 4am. When the alarm went off, the sleepiness was instantly dispelled by the anticipation of the sunrise. We quickly packed our things and headed out in the dark. We chose Changjiang Ao Windmill Field as our sunrise viewing spot, which is said to be the best location in Pingtan. Along the way, the streets were still shrouded in the night, with only the occasional street light illuminating our path. As we got closer to the sea, our anticipation grew stronger. When we arrived at Changjiang Ao, it was still dark, and the beach was already crowded with people who had come to see the sunrise. Everyone was wrapped in thick coats, some sitting on the beach waiting quietly, others holding cameras and adjusting their equipment, their eyes full of anticipation for the beautiful scenery to come. We found a spot near the sea to sit down, and the sea breeze brought a hint of coolness. In the distance, a row of huge windmills stood in the darkness, like silent guards. Gradually, the sky began to turn white, and the surrounding scenery became clearer. As time went by, the colors in the sky became richer and richer, from the initial white to a pale pink, and then slowly to orange-red. Suddenly, a dazzling light leaped out of the sea, and the sun showed a small half of its face, instantly dyeing the surrounding clouds golden. At that moment, the whole world seemed to be lit up. The sea sparkled, and the golden sunlight shone on the sea, contrasting with the windmills in the distance, forming a stunning picture. We were all stunned by the beautiful scenery in front of us, and for a moment we forgot to take pictures, just quietly watching the sun rise little by little. When the sun completely leaped out of the sea, the entire sky was dyed in gorgeous colors. Red, yellow, orange, all kinds of colors intertwined, so beautiful that it was breathtaking. I quickly picked up my phone and frantically pressed the shutter, wanting to capture this beautiful moment forever. Under this stunning sunrise, I felt the magic and greatness of nature. The troubles and pressures of life seemed so small at this moment. I think this is the meaning of travel: to see different scenery, to experience different lives, and to heal and relax your soul.
