Today, Xiaobian comes to talk to you about a city with a lot of seafood. It is not Sanya or Qingdao, but a prefecture-level city in Guangdong Province. Compared with other cities in Guangdong, this city is still relatively backward, so it is normal that many people may not know its name. But many people have eaten the delicious food here, so where on earth is this? Let's take a look!
This place is Zhanjiang City, Guangdong Province. It is a city near the sea and has a long coastline. There are many seaside tourist attractions here, such as Jinsha Bay, Longhaitian Island and Wuyang Gold Coast of Techeng Island. It produces all kinds of seafood, all kinds of shellfish, as well as characteristic lobsters and crabs, so it is also known as the seafood capital. Almost all seafood can be found in the market, so you can't worry about not eating seafood.
When it comes to seafood, everyone may think it's very expensive. Maybe they were scared when they were playing in some places, but they didn't eat any seafood but wasted money. Indeed, some scenic spots eat ordinary seafood under the banner of local specialty seafood. But in Zhanjiang, you can eat very good seafood in one or two hundred, and you can eat enough. Because Zhanjiang's per capita income is low, prices are relatively cheap, and it is a coastal city rich in seafood, so seafood will be relatively cheaper.
In Zhanjiang, there are not only affordable and fresh seafood, but also a strong artistic and cultural atmosphere, because there are many traditional dramas here. Like dances, there are dragon dances in the East Island, rare eagle dances in Lianjiang, and folk high-stakes lion dances. Music has the characteristics of Leizhou singing Lei Ge; Musical instruments include Lianjiang Anpu octave performance, Wuchuan pottery drum performance, and Zhanjiang Cantonese opera. Modeling categories include Wuchuan handmade clay sculpture, Leizhou sculpture stone dog and Wuchuan floating color parade. In Zhanjiang, you can feel colorful traditional folk art, which is not a visual enjoyment.
Another important feature in Zhanjiang is the annual tour. The annual tour here is the birthday of the whole village, and people who work outside should put down their work and go home to celebrate, which can be equivalent to the Spring Festival. Generally speaking, it means to celebrate the birthday of a village, mostly in January of the lunar calendar. On this day, people in the village please protect the village gods from sitting in sedan chairs, marching in the village with gongs and drums, and performing various programs.
Du, a local person, thinks that this day is more lively than the Spring Festival. On this day, every family will cook a lot of delicious food for passers-by to eat for free. The more people who come to eat, the more blessings their family has, so they will also make Shimei more delicious. So if you go at this time, it's really delicious. There are all kinds of delicious seafood. Xiao Bian thinks that cooking seafood should be the best cooking skill here. After all, living in the seafood capital. After that, there are all kinds of delicious fruits, which are really tempting!
