One-day tour of Ximen Island
Ximen Island, located in the north of Yueqing Bay in Zhejiang Province, is the largest island in Yueqing City. Its main peak is 398.8 meters above sea level, the coastline is 1 1.8 kilometers, and the surrounding coastal area is 2 169.5 hectares. In fact, there are few historical records of Ximen Island. From the available information, we only know that this island was occupied by a pirate leader named Zheng Wenda at the end of the Ming Dynasty and became an empty island. It was not until the end of Kangxi that Ye settled in Ximen Island, and then Ye, Shi, Zhu and Huang from Yueqing, Lin, Zheng, Wu and Hu from Taiping successively settled in. After the vicissitudes of life, Ximen Island has also achieved the story of "eight surnames meet and fall in love, like two brothers and sisters".

You can watch the sunrise at sea in the morning; In the afternoon, you can climb the mountain and overlook the whole Ximen Island. At dusk, you can ride around the island and enjoy the sunset on the island. But if you want to ask what is the most distinctive and unforgettable thing about Ximen Island, it must be the "mangrove area"!
Ximendao Mangrove Area is the northernmost mangrove in China and the only island mangrove planting area in Zhejiang Province. This is also the gold business card of Simon Island. Mangrove, as the only woody plant in tropical and subtropical coastal wetland ecosystem, not only has a good appearance, but also can prevent wind and waves, purify seawater and maintain biodiversity.
This large area grows quietly in the mangrove area of Ximen Island. Because of its romantic and dreamy popularity, it is popular in Tik Tok and friends circle and has become a punching place for online celebrities. Lying on the red plank road of this resort also gives everyone a perfect angle of mangrove forest!
We can walk slowly with poetic steps on the wooden plank road, facing the salty sea breeze. The lush mangroves on both sides spread like ribbons on the sea. Suddenly, we felt the mystery of the northernmost mangrove forest in China and the comfort of Ximen Island in the flowing time and space.
Faced with this indescribable grandeur and vastness, every tourist who has seen it is bought by the good scenery. He is willing to take countless photos for TA, take out his camera, and carefully collect the beauty of mangroves in the film like collecting subtropical sunshine.
At the end of the plank road is a silver-gray "beehive" observation deck. We can walk along the terraced fields in HIVE BOX, stand on the heights of this land, quietly look at the quietly infiltrated wetland beaches and hard-growing mangroves, and overlook the beautiful peaks of Yandang Mountain on the other side.
Here, without the interference of the world, everything is so pure and open, and the future is still so promising!
