My hometown Qidong is a small seaside town, which is located at the mouth of the Yangtze River and surrounded by water on three sides. It looks like a peninsula. It has beautiful scenery and faces Shanghai across the river. It is known as the "Pearl of the Rivers and Seas".
There is a saying that it is "by the river and by the sea and by Shanghai", which is the unique geographical environment of my hometown. There is a tourist area with jianghai style in the south of my hometown. All of them show the charm of jianghai culture. A bridge breaks the Yangtze River natural graben and runs through the north and south, which makes my hometown quickly integrate into the Shanghai one-hour metropolitan area.
Yuantuo Corner is located in the southeast corner of my hometown, which is the easternmost part of Jiangsu Province. You can see the sunrise in Yinshi, which is named "Yinyang" about an hour earlier than other places. Standing at Yuantuo Corner, the vast Yangtze River enters the sea, and the East China Sea and the Yellow Sea meet here. Spectacular. There are tourist attractions such as Yulong Temple, Dayu Stone Statue, Golden Beach, etc., coupled with the natural landscape of observing the sun in Yinshi, many literati take it as a great pleasure to watch the sun in Yuantuojiao.
The legend of Lvsi, a thousand-year-old ancient town, was named because Lv Dongbin, one of the "Eight Immortals", passed through here four times. Lvsi is rich in marine aquatic resources and has numerous seaside tourism projects. There are Wanghai Pavilion buildings and caves here. It has also opened up recreational projects such as yacht sightseeing at sea, beach surfing, and dancing with a clam, so that Chinese and foreign tourists can get a close look at the rich connotation of "sea culture" and "fishing culture".
After the completion of the Chongqi Bridge, Qidong has suddenly changed from a nerve terminal to a transportation hub, and the dream of hometown people for a hundred years has been realized. The hometown has changed, the buildings have been built higher and higher, the roads have been paved wider and wider, the city is fashionable and modern, and the fields have beautiful scenery. The scenery in my hometown is becoming more and more beautiful. I love my hometown, especially the hard work, wisdom, simplicity and kindness of the people in my hometown. They have changed the face of my hometown and created its future. They are the most beautiful scenery in my hometown.
