This is Xiamen’s back garden - Xiaodeng Island.
Compared with Gulangyu, this place is more like an uninhabited island, with basically no commercial development. It retains its original appearance and is suitable for one's quiet world.
This is also the closest place to Kinmen Island, which is under the jurisdiction of Taiwan (the closest distance is only two kilometers).
Walking and stopping on the road around the island, you can also feel the traces of artillery fire left over from the history of both sides of the Taiwan Strait.
This place is like a lonely place. You lie on the beach and bask in the sun, making you feel that the whole beach belongs to you alone, and then forget about time and enter a slow life...
Summary: Xiamen not only has the beautiful Gulangyu Island and Baicheng Beach, but also the quiet and fresh back garden - Xiaodeng Island
Dadeng Island is the largest satellite island of Xiamen. The "Small Commodity Trading Market with Taiwan" on the island is quite unique.
After being cheated, I went online and read everyone's comments. There were many people who were cheated like me. Let me tell you about my silly experience here. On the third day of our trip to Xiamen, we thought we had visited Gulangyu Island and Xiamen University, so we decided to go shopping in a big shopping mall, because that was our itinerary for the fourth day. We saw on Dianping that SM Shopping Center was pretty good. We were staying in a hotel on Zhongshang Road, so we went downstairs and randomly hailed a taxi. After getting in the taxi, we told him where we were going. Then the driver told us that the shopping mall was too shabby and there were only homestays surrounding it, so we were not interested in going there. Then we asked him where he could recommend a good place, and he recommended the town of Dajiong, saying there were many scenic spots on the way and there was a national customs duty-free shop there, with all kinds of famous brands there at very low prices. My boyfriend didn't want to go, so I said why not go and have a look. He took us directly to a travel agency and left. The taxi cost 18 yuan, and he didn't send us out. But the travel agency charged us 158 for one person and said it was a special car service. I said let's go. We didn't see any scenery along the way. When we arrived at a very shabby village, I said we were hungry because we didn't eat breakfast, so we were taken directly to a restaurant. There was no menu and it said one fish can be cooked in three ways. We were hesitating about what to eat, and they recommended tiger grouper. My boyfriend took a phone call and went aside. He started asking me if this was okay and started throwing fish. It cost 238 per catty, and the fish weighed three catties and four ounces. I was in a very unhappy mood, and then the driver said that they all have smuggled goods, and I was not interested in it. The driver said that he bought a mask for his wife from here some time ago, and his wife didn't like this brand and wanted to change it. He asked us to wait for him, and then said that we could go together and have a look. After we went there, the first floor was very ordinary dry goods, and the second floor was also a few bags, but there was a secret door, which was full of various brand-name bags, belts, watches, cosmetics, and lipsticks. The lipstick and perfume looked genuine. At that time, I wanted to take SK2, but she said that the price was about the same as the counter and she would not contact me to buy it. I instantly felt very conscientious and believed her. She recommended me the Yves Saint Laurent perfume. In short, I bought two more lipsticks for 1040. The packaging was sealed for me, and she asked me to drink tea and asked me to add WeChat, saying that if I needed anything, I could tell her and send it. On the way back, I went online and saw many people saying that they were cheated. I quickly opened the perfume and saw that it was made of fake sugar water. My mentality collapsed, and I didn't dare to go back to find them. Just treat it as being cheated. I told her on WeChat that it’s okay for you to make money against your conscience. They said if there’s anything wrong, you can take it back and they’ll refund it. We had already returned at that time, and I said I wouldn’t go back. They blamed me for being greedy and called the police. Then they blocked her. Then they changed their numbers and added me saying that I could refund my money if I added her on WeChat. Then they really did refund my money. I don’t know what tricks they used, but I refunded my money. He said that if you don’t want something, you can throw it away. I just want to tell everyone to have your own opinions. Well, that’s it. I’m not good at expressing myself. I hope everyone understands.
As soon as we got off the bus at Dadeng Island, a group of uncles asked us to take a bus around Dadeng Island. The bus was 30 yuan per person. In short, it sounded like we could visit many attractions, but it was actually a scam because we basically didn't visit them. Secondly, all the routes were in the township roads, and there was no roundabout. Don't take a sightseeing electric car on Dadeng Island! ! There were only two wind lions and a banyan tree on the whole Dadeng Island. I thought it was just a tribute to the wind lion, so that he could protect more people, and I felt much better.
They sell opened products as new ones, pretending they are made in Taiwan. They mix simplified and traditional Chinese characters. Does Taiwan use mainland pinyin? The prices at the duty-free shop on Dadeng Island are not cheap, and most of them are fake.
I was tricked by a taxi driver outside Zengcuo'an into going to some Tatou Service Center (actually a black travel agency) to take a special car to Little Kinmen (actually Dadeng Island). It's a shabby island, very run-down, and it costs 198 yuan per person. There are no attractions, and they also threaten customers to eat at their designated expensive restaurants. The duty-free shops in Taiwan are also fake and have a lot of fake goods, especially the shops that the special car driver took me to are very expensive. Don't be fooled!!!
This was the main battlefield for bombardment and the bridgehead for propaganda against Taiwan. It was developed in recent years and is now building a subway. I joked that if I come here again in ten years, I might regret not buying a house here today.
There is also a loud speaker used for propaganda to Taiwan. It can still make sounds now.
I believe that friends who have been to Taichung know that there is a Rainbow Village there. If you haven't had time to go to the Rainbow Village in Taichung, if you are interested in the ancient houses and wall graffiti in southern Fujian, then don't miss it. Xiamen's Dadeng Island also has a "Rainbow Village" hidden away.
There is a big loudspeaker on Dadeng Island. It is said that people on Kinmen Island can hear what is being said through the loudspeaker. It is only separated from Kinmen Island by a body of water.
There are very primitive ancient villages in southern Fujian on the island, and there are many architectural attractions. These attractions are mainly some historical buildings, but they are very humanistic. In addition to these attractions, you can also play on the sea and islands. ~
It was raining today and it was really embarrassing. I met a lady at Baicheng Beach who was trying to sell us a trip to Kinmen or something. She then sent us to a place called the China Travel Ticket Office. She said that it would cost 198 per person to go to Kinmen and that they would drive us there. If we came back, they would deliver us to Xiamen Island. So we were deceived into buying tickets. Someone took us there in a private car. Old Kinmen, is it Kinmen? It’s actually Dadeng Island. There was nothing to see. They just took us shopping. Why didn’t we grab the dried fish that cost 70 yuan per pound? We also went to see some ghost attractions. No one wants to go to that island. They make money by cheating people like this! Fortunately, we didn’t go to any other extra expenses. When we came back, the driver refused to take us there and dropped us off at the 29th bus terminal, which was completely different from what he said at the time. We can’t even find a place to complain now. Why don’t any government departments take care of this kind of rubbish company? Does anyone dare to come to Xiamen? They only know how to cheat people and make black money! I won’t reveal the driver’s license plate. You’d better take care of yourself.
It's best not to go. I don't even want to give it one star. I was cheated of my money and I'm still angry. Bad review! Bad review! Absolutely bad review! Now the locals on the island are cheating tourists. The cheapest fish is 98 yuan per catty, not kilograms, and the expensive ones are 320 yuan per catty! The price is not clearly marked. Everyone must be careful when you go there. Don't take the so-called sightseeing battery car. They say it's 10 yuan for a small roundabout and 30 yuan for a big roundabout. We walked two kilometers and it cost 60 yuan for two people. If you don't pay, you will fight and be fierce. .
A super disgusting place. I was planning to go to the Botanical Garden, but I was fooled by a disgusting driver in the taxi. He said that the Botanical Garden requires hiking and it is not fun to take the elderly. He said that you can take a ride to visit Dajinmen, with a special car pick-up and drop-off, and a tour guide, one-to-one service. The driver is so disgusting. Because of this, I was cheated of 400 yuan, 198 per person, but there was nothing there, just a battlefield sightseeing park, and I had to buy another ticket. It was a broken place with nothing to see, and it took less than three hours to go back and forth. It was really abominable. I really want to complain
There are many stories about the Red Mansion here, including the site set up by the Kuomintang government and the story of Lai Changxing. You can walk around the island, there are a lot of seafood, and there are also private smuggling shops, where it is difficult to tell whether the goods are real or fake.
As long as you don't buy so-called smuggled goods and don't eat so-called super-value seafood, it's actually okay. This place is full of scams. I originally planned to ride a bicycle around Zhongshan Road. As a result, I was fooled by a Henan woman to take a sailboat, 198 per person, and then I gave her 120, saying that someone would take us to Dajinmen to play, and send us to our residence at 5:30. As a result, all kinds of scams began. This is a man from Henan. On the way, he kept saying that there were smuggled goods here, which were very cheap. He took us to two smuggling points and let us take a look. We didn't buy anything at the first smuggling point. The driver didn't say anything and took us to the next place. When we went to the second smuggling point, he started to let us buy things. He said that the guests he had taken before bought a lot of things. In short, he asked us to buy. Then we really spent several hundred to buy a pack of cigarettes. I don't know if it's true. Later, he took us to the wishing tree. Then we went to eat at his so-called super-value seafood restaurant. A shrimp, a crab, and three green vegetables cost more than a thousand. Not only was it very expensive, but it was also very unpalatable. We were kind enough to take him along for dinner. Later, he took us to the duty-free shop and spent nearly a thousand dollars. Thinking about it now makes me sad. Later, he took us to see the Fortress of the Fortress, saying that since we were so familiar with each other, he would buy the tickets. The original ticket cost 58 yuan, but he only bought it for 30 yuan. We really bought it. We were so naive. Although it was not much, it was really depressing. Later, we ran out of time. We didn't go to some attractions, so he took us to the pier to take a ferry. As a result, there was a traffic jam at the undersea tunnel and we missed the boat. We had to buy tickets again, and the driver drove to the wrong place. We had to go to another pier to buy tickets and take the boat. As a result, he was very shameless and said that he was originally sending us back to the hotel in the city center. We had to pay a proper fare to leave the city center. It was really shameless. Later, I gave him a red envelope of 36 yuan, and said that we gave too little, and said to give him one for 58 yuan. Oh my god. Including the ticket of 60 yuan, I still gave him one for 58 yuan, and you still want one for 118 yuan. Give it to your sister. It's good enough if I don't give you 48 yuan.
All in all, not only did I not have a good time, but I also wasted a lot of money. Anyway, let's just take this as a lesson. It's our fault for not making a strategy when we went out.
In short, this is a series of tricks and a series of scams.
The pictures below are all scams. The first one is the so-called fisherman's village, a place to eat, opposite the house, but I think it's all scams. The second and third pictures are duty-free shops, there's nothing good in them, the fourth picture is the beginning of the whole scam, a sailboat, not interesting at all. The last picture is the so-called smuggling shop, a house with two big lanterns. There are all kinds of things, anyway, it's unknown whether it's real or fake.
Dadeng Island has old houses, old stories, duty-free shops, and seafood. It is a pleasant surprise. Some beautiful old houses are inhabited, and most of them have family shops. There is also a big banyan tree.
Dadeng Island is a magical place. It used to be under the jurisdiction of Jinmen, and later belonged to Xiamen. Oysters cost 2 yuan each, which really shocked a child like me who is not at the seaside~
It is said that the Red Mansion has many unspeakable stories with Yang Yuying, but now we can only see the appearance but cannot visit inside, which is still a pity. It would be itchy if we didn't visit the former residence.
The specialty of Dadeng Island is vermicelli, which is dried naturally using an ancient method. It makes you feel like you have come to China on the tip of the tongue.
There is a large duty-free shop in Taiwan upstream of Dadeng Island. There are many Taiwanese cosmetics, Morita facial masks, Alishan cigarettes, Kinmen Kaoliang wine... Snacks from all over the world. If you don’t have a reliable purchasing agent, it’s also a good place to buy them. As someone who has a reliable purchasing agent, I’ve ended my small gift-giving business...
Dadeng Island is still under construction, in a semi-developed state. The locals are very proud of their island, but unfortunately the tour guide industry is very shady and deceptive. I recommended buying it halfway through the trip, and the restaurant I recommended for lunch (Youyuan Farmhouse) felt like I was going to end my friendship. It was very bad. It's a pity that the whole atmosphere has caused a tourist pit. Maybe after it is completed, no one will go there.
As soon as we got off the bus, the local villagers asked if we wanted a tour guide. The problem is that there is nothing on the island. The villagers still had the nerve to ask if we wanted a tour guide. The beach was completely fenced off and we couldn't see anything. The duty-free shops were full of fake goods. They built buildings around the old houses and we couldn't see anything.
Dadeng Island, namely Dadeng Street, Xiang'an District, Xiamen City, is located on the sea north of Kinmen Island, with the closest distance to Kinmen Island being only 1,800 meters. It is now under the jurisdiction of Xiamen Municipal Government. It covers an area of 13.2 square kilometers, with 9 administrative villages and nearly 20,000 people. It has the purest sea area on the southeast coast, and the water and air quality meet the national environmental first-level standards. It is known as the "natural oxygen bar" and is a national egret nature reserve. The people of Dadeng Island are simple and honest. There is a small commodity trading market for Taiwan and the Hero Three Islands Battlefield Tourist Park. The park has built attractions such as "The World's Largest - Loudspeaker", "The Site of the August 23rd Artillery Position", "Battlefield Tunnel", and "Air and Sea Drifting Historical Relics Exhibition Hall".
There are many people drying shells on the roadside of Dadeng Island, which are used to raise oysters.
Dadeng Island is the largest island in the Dandao Islands and the largest satellite island of Xiamen. It is located in the eastern sea of Xiamen and covers an area of about 13 square kilometers. Dadeng Island was originally part of Kinmen County and is a Dandao Islands consisting of Dadeng Island, Xiaodeng Island, Jiaoyu Island and Habai Island. It has been controlled by the People's Republic of China since 1949 and is now under the jurisdiction of Xiamen Xiang'an District. The 931-meter-long Dadeng Bridge connects Dadeng Island and Xiang'an Peninsula.
It is now very convenient to travel to Dadeng Island from Xiamen Island. You can take bus No. 756 from the railway station (since it is the starting point, you can choose any seat), which takes 1 hour and you can directly reach Dadeng Bus Station.
There is a large duty-free mall next to the bus station, which is very convenient for shopping, but it feels like every store sells similar things. In addition, if the quantity is small, some Taiwanese products are not as cheap as on the island.
Dadeng Island is not big, but it is not small either. Once you get off the bus, many locals will come and invite you to take a battery car for sightseeing. It costs 30 yuan per person to go around the island to see the 5 major attractions, and 10 yuan per person to visit only 3 attractions. It takes about 40 minutes to go around the island, stopping and starting. It seems that there is nothing fun here, but the air is good.
Dadeng Island was the main battlefield of the Kinmen Artillery Battle between the People's Liberation Army and the Kuomintang Army of Taiwan from August 23 to October 5, 1958. It was awarded the title of "Heroic Three Islands". The main battlefield of the battle and many weapons and facilities have been preserved relatively intact to this day.
What impressed me most was that there was the world's largest military radio loudspeaker (the bunker-like small building behind the loudspeaker was the radio room), which was used to speak to Taiwan and conduct psychological warfare. It is said that Marshal Ye personally used this loudspeaker to explain our policies and positions to Taiwan. Taiwan also had a large loudspeaker to respond to the mainland. After the war, the "anchors" of both sides met and took photos together. Blood is thicker than water!
In addition, the underground tunnel under the main battlefield is also preserved, which was mainly used to transport ammunition and supplies to the front line. Although the scale of the artillery battle at that time could not be compared with that of a large battle, an average of 1.5 shells fell per square meter, and the battlefield was turned upside down! Ground transportation was simply impossible, and the only way was through this tunnel. The tunnel was very slippery and cold, probably because it was too close to the sea. In the middle of the tunnel, there is still a big hole left by the Taiwanese artillery shells. It was penetrated so deep underground. The destructive power of war is terrifying!
Dadeng is not well developed, but the seafood stalls are still worth a try. The price is reasonable and the meal costs 100 yuan per person. You will eat until you can't close your mouth.
There were dark clouds in the west, so I didn’t get to take a photo of the sunset…
Is it okay? The island is very close to Xiamen.
The island is average, there is an old site of Kinmen County to see, and the beach is not developed
I went to Dadeng Island two years ago. It was a very quaint little fishing village that had not been overdeveloped.
A small island with a rustic feel. It's not worth going so far.
Dadeng Island was the former seat of Kinmen County Government and is a fishing village with a duty-free shop.
Once the frontier of the country, now the trade window between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait. One country, two systems, unified China!
Dadeng Island, mainly to buy duty-free goods.
Dadeng Island is the largest island in the Dadeng Islands and the largest satellite island of Xiamen. It is located in the southeast sea of Xiang'an District, Xiamen City, with an area of about 13 square kilometers.
During the National Day holiday, I feel a bit overwhelmed wherever I go, because there are so many people everywhere and the prices are high. But there is no other way, only this long holiday. I hired a taxi from Xiamen, and it cost 200 for four people to go back and forth. I passed through an undersea tunnel. (I watched too many TV dramas and thought it was made of glass) The driver said that the cost was more than 7 billion. I arrived at the "Heroic Three Islands Battlefield Park" and visited it. I didn't know that it was baptized by artillery battles in 1958. How bad is my history? I didn't know about this when the driver asked. After watching some exhibitions of airplanes, tanks, and cannons, I suddenly felt patriotic! I hope that China will be unified soon~ Because I am lazy and go out late, I have a simple meal (fast food) in the park. 22 to 30 yuan per set, maybe there are many people, there are only three types (curry chicken, black pepper beef fillet, Taiwanese braised pork) rice, the rice is a bit raw. While waiting for dinner, I played with the Easter egg gun for a while, 20 yuan for 10 rounds. When I came to Wangguitai, I could see Taiwan's Kinmen with a high-powered telescope for 5 yuan per person. You can also pick up shells and catch hermit crabs on the beach. It's just too hot~~It's still over 30 degrees in October. As a fat guy, I'm sweating profusely! Girls, please wear sunscreen (waterproof type). The driver told us that all the seafood in Xiamen comes from Dadeng Island, so if you have time, you can stay in Dadeng Island to eat seafood. Then we went to see the thousand-year-old banyan tree, which was full of wishing cloth strips (20 yuan each), and there were still crowds of people. Finally, we went to the red villa that Lai Changxing gave to Dong Wenhua. It is said that the things that were requisitioned by the customs are sold here. If you want to go shopping, you can take a look. Anyway, I don't like anything... The driver also revealed: In another three or four years, Xiamen Airport will be on Dadeng Island.
When we came to Xiamen for a company event, I don’t know where the boss heard about this scenic spot, but he said we could see Kinmen, and then he drove a long way with a group of us to the suburbs. We bought tickets for an electric car there, and there was a guide on the car, who explained the attractions along the way. However, his so-called attractions... There was nothing... It was very desolate, with either some random trees planted on the open space to make it look famous, or they were just being repaired. There was a lot of dust, and I was too lazy to take pictures... The end of the car was a department store, where you would see all kinds of Taiwanese goods, very cheap ones. You could buy food, but many other things were fake... At that time, there was a Taiwanese boss selling kelp, and we said that the Beauty Diary next door was only 25 yuan a box. The boss said that it was fake, and the purchase price of the real thing could not be so cheap... Then we couldn't help but buy a few boxes at the entrance... It was a really rip-off place,
There were also people who wanted to buy foreign cigarettes, and my colleagues expressed interest. The lady boss actually opened a small room next door for them to taste the cigarettes. It was also quite magical. Although I don’t know if the cigarettes are authentic.
2012.11
It is really not a place to go to Dadeng Island. First, there are no tourist attractions. The traces of the previous wars are no longer visible. One place has been destroyed beyond recognition. Now Dadeng Island is developing an airport and the landform has changed. There is a battlefield park that was built later. There are several cannons and bunkers, and they are painted green for camouflage. It is like a playground for children to play war. There is nothing fun. The consumption on Dadeng Island is also very high. At noon at Haojia Seafood Hotel, I had a plate of pepper shrimps. There were only about twenty shrimps, and I didn’t even count them. It was a small plate. A bowl of seaweed and egg soup and a pot of rice cost 74 yuan. Friends who have not been there don’t need to waste their time and money.
The green vegetable fields on the roadside attracted our attention. The driver told us that carrots were grown here. Dadeng Island is a sandy land, and the carrots grown there are big and sweet. These carrots are directly exported, and one acre can be sold for more than 12,000 yuan, which is sold by acre rather than by kilogram. The moored fishing boats, the fishermen returning with full loads, and the women mending fishing nets on the shore... all bear witness to the current peace and tranquility! I like this kind of Dadeng Island tour. I saw the island scenery, understood the island folk customs, and felt the simplicity of the island fishermen. This is original and real! Don't let the development change the true nature of things!
Judging from the map, the sunrise should be better for taking photos of the mudflats at Dadeng Island. Of course, it is inferior to Xiapu, but fortunately there are these people.
As we approached the scenic area, we saw the distinctive architectural style of red tiles and white walls. It was pretty nice. It would be even more beautiful if the sun was bigger!
The night is ghostly and enchanting. I have never seen such a beautiful night view.
Dadeng Island, piles of oyster shells. On the other side is Dajinmen Island, but the weather was bad and I couldn't see it.
Dadeng Island
This place has experienced the baptism of artillery warfare, with 1.5 shells falling on every square meter of land, and it once became a war ruin.
This was an unplanned trip. My companion, Miss Taozi, had a friend who was serving in the army in Dadeng. We had to meet him after traveling all the way to Xiamen. So Dadeng Island became the first stop in our Xiamen trip. Some people go to Dadeng Island to shop at the Taiwan Duty Free Market. The bags there are basically A-grade goods, but the prices are very good. Just bargain as much as you can! Without further ado, here are the pictures!
Dadeng Island is located in the southeastern sea of Xiang'an District, Xiamen City, Fujian Province. It is only 1,800 meters away from Kinmen Island. It covers an area of 13.2 square kilometers and has 9 administrative villages under its jurisdiction, with a population of nearly 20,000. It has the purest sea area on the southeast coast. The water and air quality meet the national environmental first-level standards. It is known as the "natural oxygen bar" and is a national egret nature reserve. Due to the construction of the Xiang'an undersea tunnel, it is now much more convenient to get from Xiamen to Dadeng. From Xiamen, you can reach Xiang'an District via the Xiang'an tunnel, and then take the Dadeng Bridge to Dadeng Island.
There are many small villas on Dadeng Island. Now it is no longer a frontier position, but a beautiful island surrounded by the sea. There is also a duty-free shop for Taiwanese products on the island, and people enjoy a peaceful life.
I went to Dadeng and Xiaodeng because a friend suggested it, but to be honest, I went there purely to enjoy the scenery and the pace of the countryside. You can take a bus around the island, which goes around Dadeng and Xiaodeng. The driver will introduce the origin of each place like a tour guide, etc. The blue sky here is really beautiful, but there is a charge.
Sitting on the back of a motorcycle, galloping on the coastal highway, enjoying the scenery along the way, blowing the fresh sea breeze, heading straight to Dadeng Island. After an hour, we arrived at the legendary Dadeng Island. I looked at the time and it was already 4 o'clock. Many tourists had already returned, and it was much quieter. There were only two destinations for this trip: battlefield sightseeing and the Taiwan Strait duty-free market.
Actually, I first came to Dadeng Island because my little cousin said that this island is nice and it has the only Taiwan duty-free goods area in the mainland. But in the end, the cultural landscape attracted me more, and I didn’t have enough time, so I gave up.
Actually, there is nothing to see on the whole island. The most impressive thing is the big banyan tree. It is a tree that makes a forest. When you walk to the other side of the road, you can't even see the whole picture of it. There are many red ribbons tied on the tree for blessing, which is very beautiful!
My uncle drove us to Dadeng Island, which is quite far away. There are fewer people here, the scenery and beach are more comfortable, and there is also Taiwan Duty Free Shop.
There are not many attractions on Dadeng Island. There is a team park, which mainly displays some weapons and introduces the history of the heroic islands. There is also a so-called duty-free mall, but many people say that it is a scam with parallel imports, so few people buy electronic products here, and I gave up the idea of buying a camera here.
It is said that this is a small town that overlooks Taiwan's Kinmen. In fact, I know nothing about it. When the car bumped and bumped to Dadeng Island, I was shocked. . .
Because it's really rural... I feel like I've been fooled...
It's just because there is a duty-free zone for Taiwanese businessmen here, so things are very cheap. You can also overlook the Big and Small Kinmen Islands of Taiwan.
I unexpectedly got a beautiful sea view on the island. I liked the feeling of three or two boats floating on the sea. Although it was only a corner, it was a surprise to get such a beautiful view on Dadeng Island.
After arriving and getting off the car, we found that we regretted it even more. It felt like a very remote rural area. There is indeed a relatively large shopping mall here, but it is a pity that the merchants are not complete. There are many types of products and the prices are cheaper than in the city. It’s just that this pitfall of the journey makes people lose interest. Personally, I think it’s a fuzzy place to come or not. If you don’t come, you can think about it and take a look. If you come, I think it’s really nothing.
During the period of tension in the Taiwan Strait, this place was originally a military stronghold, but now it has been developed into a port commercial area and cross-strait trade is quite active.
From here you can see Taiwan's Kinmen Island, the seaside scenery is good, there are few people, there is a Sino-Taiwan trade zone, and you can also buy some Taiwanese products.
We arrived at Dadeng Island, which is very close to Kinmen and can see Kinmen Island more clearly. This is where Kinmen was bombarded. We walked down the shaking tunnel where ammunition was transported and saw the treasure of the town: a huge military trumpet! It was breathtaking.
Look at how good the people on the island live. Every house is a small Western-style building. I'm so envious~~
I have never been to Dadeng Hero Islands, and I don't seem to be interested in this area. The four stars are given to the "Graffiti Village" in Jiujiacuo, Dadeng. There are few tourists, the graffiti wall is very beautiful to take pictures, the colors are very bright, and it is free (there is a folk park next to Jiujiacuo, which is charged). According to local villagers: The graffiti of Jiujiacuo was created by a professor from Fuzhou University and his students in a week! It is quite unique. Friends who follow the literary route can go and visit it. PS: There should be no group tours here, so if someone is going to the graffiti village, it is recommended not to join the group, otherwise you may be cheated!
