The Weitou Battlefield Cultural Fishing Village, which condenses more than 1,200 years of history, has geographical coordinates of 118.34 degrees east longitude and 24.31 degrees north latitude. It is located on the protruding part of the Weitou Peninsula on the southeast coast of Fujian Province. It borders the Taiwan Strait to the east, the beautiful Weitou Bay to the west, and Quanzhou "East Asia" to the north.

"Cultural Capital", it is only 5.2 nautical miles away from Greater Kinmen Island to the south. Cape Weitou and Moon Bay are the closest places on the mainland to Taichung and Greater Kinmen Island.

The area covers an area of ??5.2 square kilometers, with a coastline of 6,500 meters. It has a permanent population of more than 4,300 people, more than 3,500 foreigners, and nearly 10,000 people living in Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan and overseas.

Weitou has a long history, a large number of heroes, a unique cross-strait complex, and rich tourism resources.

Especially in the "August 23" artillery battle that shocked the world in 1958, the heroic Weitou people "patriotic and hometown" participated in the battle, and 66 people won "second-class merit",

"Third Class Merit", seven people came to Beijing to be commended, and they are known as "Hero's Weitou" and "Beautiful Weitou".

Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, the footprints of more than 170 generals including Zhu De, Chen Yi and Chi Haotian have been left on this red land.

Today, Weitou Village, from the first village in the Strait Artillery War to the first village in cross-strait marriages, has witnessed the "Weitou Bride" interpreting legendary stories of "enemies becoming in-laws" one after another.

From the forefront of coastal defense in the past to the forefront of Taiwan confrontation today, the small fishing village has become a microcosm of the changes in cross-strait relations over the past sixty years.

Let’s work together to unveil the mystery of the “No. 1 Village in the Strait” with the five recommended spots for visiting Weitou: “see Kinmen, explore gun caves, soak in sea water, eat seafood, and stay in B&Bs”.

Since the beginning of 2007, Weitou Village has taken the opportunity of Jinjiang City's "100 Demonstration Villages Improvement" demonstration village project and combined with the Jinjing small town pilot development plan to determine the four major goals of "ecological development, tourism, enrichment of the village, cultural strength, and integrity of the village" for the people.

The nine-year process of the project is step by step, following the established step-by-step mid- and long-term development plan blueprint of "one change every year, one leap every five years, ten years for living, working and traveling, and twenty years for building a famous Strait village"

Progressing in an orderly manner.

At present, "beautiful ecology, rich people, excellent industries, and dynamic mechanisms" are taking shape and achieving immediate results.

In particular, while giving full play to the three major advantages of "facing Taiwan, facing gold, and being close to the sea" and protecting and utilizing the three idle resources of "coastal ecology, battlefield sites, and miscellaneous wasteland", we are actively cultivating and building a characteristic industrial chain of Weitou Ecological Fishing Village.

Take the lead in striving to become a model in Jinjiang and even a national "ecotourism demonstration zone" with the characteristics of ecological civilization in the Straits.

The changes in Weitou have been praised by the media as "Weitou spirit, Weitou model, and Weitou speed", with more than 400 related reports.

Recently, Weitou Village has been awarded the third batch of national famous landscape tourism villages and the Chinese Rural Tourism Model Village, the second batch of national defense education bases in Fujian Province, and the first batch of top ten Fujian and Taiwan villages in Fujian Province.

It has more than 60 honors, including 15 "provincial titles" such as tourism demonstration sites, "the first batch of ecological villages" in Quanzhou City, the second batch of top ten beautiful villages in Quanzhou City, and one of the top ten typical demonstration villages in Jinjiang City.

In order to present the natural beauty of "blue sky, clear water, golden sand and green forest" to many tourists, on the basis of good original ecological environment, Weitou Scenic Area took the lead in launching the implementation in 2016 and upgraded it to Weitou "The First Village in the Strait".

This national 4A-level tourist attraction, a project that strengthens villages and enriches people, activates the local flavor of "coastal landscape, battlefield landscape, and cultural landscape", highlights the "Eighteen Scenic Spots in Weitou", and carefully plans two tourist landscape belts on the east and west lines: First, the east line coastal landscape
