Santu Ao Doumu Island: A Maritime Fairyland and Culinary Adventure
Santu Ao Doumu Island: A Maritime Fairyland and Culinary Adventure
Hey there, folks, this time I'm going to take you to a mysterious and beautiful place—Santu Ao Doumu Island! Not only does it boast breathtaking scenery, but also mouthwatering cuisine. Come with me on this magical journey!
First off, let's talk about the stunning views of Santu Ao Doumu Island. This place is like a fairyland on the sea! It's dotted with bizarre rocks of all shapes and sizes, some resembling a turtle carrying a pearl, others like a roc spreading its wings, and there are also the turning head of a fiery horse, the African elephant, and so on, all lifelike and too numerous to take in at a glance. The most amazing has to be the Conch Rock, a great spectacle along China's coastline. From a distance, it looks like a giant conch lying on the cliff by the sea, simply awe-inspiring!
Besides the scenery, there's also the Fuhai Guan ruins, nestled among lush pines and cypresses, with a vast sea view, making it a wonderful place for exploring the ancient and the mysterious. Walking by the naval port, watching the warships set sail and cruisers return home, with the sound of their horns echoing in the serene mountains and waters, is truly majestic!
Speaking of which, I have to mention the local fishermen. Stretching for tens of kilometers, it's known as the 'Oriental Venice'. Indeed, the sea fishing town has streets and house numbers, as well as community management institutions, police, mobile communication service centers, and so on, just like a city floating on the sea! Sitting on the swaying fishing rafts, drinking with the wind, tasting the freshly caught and cooked delicacies from the sea, the feeling is indescribably delightful!
Of course, when it comes to Santu Ao Doumu Island, how can we not talk about the food? The cuisine here is a feast for the taste buds! From seafood to snacks, everything is memorable. Especially the seafood freshly caught from the sea, so fresh that whether it's steamed or stir-fried, you just can't stop eating!
Apart from seafood, the local snacks are also exceptional. Take the crispy and tender fish balls, for example, biting into one, the delicious soup bursts in your mouth, utterly intoxicating! And then there's the soft and sweet glutinous rice cake, each bite filled with the taste of sweetness and happiness.
In short, Santu Ao Doumu Island is not only a place with picturesque scenery but also a paradise for food lovers! If you also want to go on an impromptu trip, then pack your bags and join me on this fantastic journey! I guarantee it will be worth your while and you'll return fully satisfied!

The island kissed by angels
According to the elders, Sandu Island was a common travel destination for Ningde children during their childhood. It is not a popular tourist spot like Gulangyu, nor is it a trendy place for social media check-ins; it is simply a place where the people of Ningde live - a small island brimming with the breath of life.
The island is clean and tidy, with courtyards leisurely adorned with flowers and plants, exuding a serene power. Houses are built along the mountain, and as you ascend the steps, you can enjoy the rural scenery and the coastal landscape.
Sandu Island used to be a concentrated area for foreign consulates and offices, and to this day, there are still remnants of customs houses and Western-style buildings such as Catholic churches and monasteries. Strolling on the island, surrounded by lush greenery, in the corners where spider webs climb, the light of years is scattered.
