Juehua Island, commonly known as Dahaishan, was called Taohua Island in the Tang and Song Dynasties and Juehua Island in the Liao and Jin Dynasties. Because wild chrysanthemum bloomed on the island, it was renamed Chrysanthemum Island in the 11th year of the Republic of China (1922). In 2009, the name of Juehua Island was restored. Juehua Island, together with the ancient city and hot springs, is also known as the "Three Treasures of Xingcheng", which is one of the five indispensable landscapes of Xingcheng: city, spring, mountain, sea and island.

Where is Peach Blossom Island?
Taos, a provincial-level scenic spot in Zhejiang Province, is located at east longitude112 ~122 ~19 ′ and north latitude 29 46 ′ ~ 29 _ Peach Blossom Island 52 ′, which is located in the southeast of Zhoushan Islands in Zhejiang Province. Taohua Island is 7.8 nautical miles north of shenjiamen, where the Putuo District Government of Zhoushan City is located, facing Putuo Mountain, a "sea-sky Buddha country", and Zhujiajian Island, a "seamount yandang" across the harbor, with a distance of12km from Ningbo City in the west, the international deep-water waterway of Taohua Port in the south and the famous East China Sea fishing ground in the east. The whole island covers an area of 4 1.7 square kilometers with a total population of 2.150,000. Huang Yaoshi, the "East Evil" in Mr. Jin Yong's masterpieces The Legend of the Condor Heroes and The Condor Heroes, lives on this island.
Peach Blossom Island was called "Baiyun Mountain" in ancient times. In the Qin Dynasty, An Qisheng fled to Peach Blossom Island to live in seclusion and cultivate alchemy. One day, he was drunk and sprinkled with ink on rocks, which became a peach blossom pattern, so the stone was called "Peach Blossom Stone", the mountain was called "Peach Blossom Mountain" and the island was called "Peach Blossom Island". Taohua Island belonged to Anqi Township in Changguo County from Song Dynasty to Hongwu in the 19th year of Ming Dynasty, Taohuazhuang Township in Jian 'an Period in the early years of Qing Emperor Kangxi, and Taohuazhuang Township in Dinghai Period in Guangxu Period. It was renamed Taohua Township in the Republic of China, and it was merged into the township after several years of construction, and it was withdrawn from the township until today's Taohua Town.
The main scenic spots of Taohua Island
Peach Blossom Island is a wonderful and magical island in the East China Sea described by Mr. Jin Yong's The Legend of the Condor Heroes and his sister story The Condor Heroes. The island's scenic tourism resources are rich and varied, with complete categories and high grade. It integrates sea, mountains, rocks, reefs, rocks, caves, temples, temples, flowers, forests, birds, military relics, historical monuments, cliff stone carvings, myths and legends, and the natural landscape and human landscape are flourishing. It was approved as a provincial-level scenic spot in 1993.
Peach Blossom Island has the highest peak in Zhoushan Islands-Anqing Peak; The first Shenzhen-Hong Kong in Zhoushan-Taohua Port; The largest stone in the southeast coast-Giant Buddha Rock; Known as the "Island Botanical Garden". Rich natural landscape, humanistic landscape and myths and legends are organically integrated to form six scenic spots in Taohua Island Scenic Area, which are combined into three special tourist lines of martial arts, Buddhism and Taoism. As the only island film and television base in China, the Shooting Sculpture Film and Television City is located at the foot of the beautiful scattered flower peak of Peach Blossom Island written by Jin Yong, covering an area of 2.5 square kilometers. Invested and built by Ningbo Huadong Material City Market Construction and Development Co., Ltd. The whole building has the Song Dynasty style and exquisite art, and skillfully combines the natural landscapes of mountains, rocks, caves, water and forests, so that you can naturally blend into the artistic conception of martial arts and pursue the magical and colorful life of martial arts.
The tourist city mainly includes Huang Yaoshi Villa, Niujiacun, Dongxie Shipport, GuiTrang Van, Bagua Bookstore, Huangrongfang, Feng's Tomb, Lin 'an Street, Jingcheng Square, Nandi Temple, Qingyin Cave, Giant Buddha Rock, Tingyuju and other scenic spots.
In the autumn of 200 1 year in Gui Yue, the mainland version of the TV series Legend of the Condor Heroes started shooting in this city. After watching the beautiful scenery of the tourist city, Mr. Jin Yong happily wrote the title "Legend of the Condor Heroes to the Tourist City". In 2002 1 1 month, the mainland version of "Eight Dragons" was also filmed here. It has become a famous scenic spot integrating film and television shooting, tourism, leisure and entertainment. The main scene of this scenic spot, the Giant Buddha Rock, is the symbol of Peach Blossom Island and the main activity place of Huang Yaoshi in Peach Blossom Island written by Jin Yong.
The scenic area is shaded by trees, lush and green, with flowing water and winding paths. Climbing to the top of the Giant Buddha Rock, the Zhoushan Archipelago looks like a bonsai garden on the water as far as the eye can see, and it is also poetic and picturesque. The Giant Buddha Rock Scenic Area is the birthplace of the martial arts culture in Peach Blossom Island, so it has become the starting point of the martial arts cultural tourism line.
Buddha Rock-The Giant Buddha Rock is the symbol of Peach Blossom Island. Its strangeness lies in that it is as big as a distant view, and it is particularly eye-catching under the sunlight reflection. The bottom of the Giant Buddha Rock is 268 meters, 72 meters high, covering an area of 6,239 square meters, with an altitude of 287 meters and a top area of more than 100 square meters. Climbing the Giant Buddha Rock is a very pleasant thing. Although it is not difficult to climb, it is necessary to climb vines and help trees. Drilling holes and squeezing seams suddenly become a kind of "mountain"
Qingyin Cave is a natural cave with the word "Qingyin Cave" engraved on the middle of the Giant Buddha Rock. There is a crevice in the cave, which is about 10 cm wide and more than 20 meters long, and the sunlight enters the crevice, which is a veritable "one-line sky". This cave goes straight to the bottom of the rock, so the voices at both ends can be clearly distinguished. Mr. Jin Yong made an important description of this scenic spot in his book The Legend of the Condor Heroes, which became the grottoes where Huang Yaoshi collected the Jiuyin Zhenjing and held the old urchin. Taohuayu Scenic Area, located on the east coast of Taohua Island, is the most beautiful block in the island's natural ecological environment. Here, the strange rock walls stand vividly, and the top of the mountain has a distant view of the sea and the sunrise in the morning. The main attractions are: Taohuazhai, the East China Sea Pearl, the Finger Finger Peak, the carved stone, the turtle patrolling the shore and the shy Guanyin.
Taohuazhai-located in the center of Taohuayu Scenic Area, covering an area of about 2 square kilometers, is a quiet place with trees and a winding bridge in Qingxi, which is a good place for leisure and rest. Apricot yellow flags, red lanterns and heroic songs make you feel like you are in the world of martial arts culture; Pharmacists, Jing Ge Ju and Rong Er Tea House let you appreciate the true meaning of Jin Yong's novels "love", "fate" and "righteousness".
Finger flick peak-shaped like a thumb popping out of the palm of your hand, like a sword stuck upside down by the sea, located in the "ghost axe" place, the lonely peak stands, the knife cuts the axe, the cliff is steep, and the cool wind blows gently. From the inscriptions in front of the Finger Finger Peak, we can see that Wu Lai, a writer of the Yuan Dynasty, praised the beautiful scenery of the strange peaks and rocks around the Finger Finger Peak more than 600 years ago. Finger flick peak is also the place where Huang Yaoshi, described in Jin Yong's famous book Shooting, practiced his stunts. Here is the terminal of "Peach Blossom Dragon" and "Martial Arts Culture". Tawan Jinsha Scenic Area: centering on the Golden Beach in the southeast of the island, Dinghai City, Baique Temple, Tawan Mingjing Lake and Longtan Water Curtain are strung into a group of tourist attractions.
Donghai Shenzhu-A stone ball with a diameter of 80cm was honed by the waves at the seaside of Dragon Pearl Beach in Tawan Scenic Area, which was called "Donghai Shenzhu". The dragon ball rolled in the dragon's throat, giving off a rumbling echo, weaving a wonderful and magical picture of "Golden Dragon Spitting Beads", which is known as "one of the best in China". This is one of the major landscapes of Peach Blossom Island 12. Qianbu Sand in the southeast of the island is 1370 meters long and 500 meters wide, making it the second largest beach in Zhoushan Islands. The beach is flat, the sand is pure and the sand is fine and soft. It is an ideal beach for sea bathing, sand bathing, sunshine bathing and beach walking. The two headlands extend to the sea and surround the bay into a "lake". The water here is calm for some time, and the water is blue and clear. There are natural grouper, tiger fish, sea crucian carp, tiger fish, flounder and swimming crab in the bay, which is suitable for all kinds of water sports and fishing. In summer and autumn, whenever the stars disappear, the rising sun drills out of the sea, and the sea, sky and sand are integrated, forming a "Jinsha Sunrise" astronomical landscape.
Baique Temple is a world-famous place where Guanyin became a monk and practiced. Here, you can hear the unique Guanyin Sutra, which is one of the main cultural landscapes in Peach Blossom Island and records Guanyin's experience of becoming a monk and practicing. Baique Temple is also a witness to the friendly exchanges between Chinese and Japanese people. The historical story of "Spring Maru" happened here more than 240 years ago, and Zhoushan City and Kesennuma City of Japan formed a sister city.
Qianbu Jinsha, which is 1370 meters long and over 400 meters wide, is the second largest beach in Zhoushan Islands in terms of area. From the aspect of sand, books are ideal and high-quality beaches for sea bathing, sand bathing, sunshine bathing and beach walking. Qianbu Jinsha is a fine sand, soft and pure. Compared with Baibu Sands and Qianbu Sands in Putuo Mountain and Jihu Beach in Shengsi, it is much softer, similar to Dongsha and Nansha in Zhujiajian Island, but softer, and there are some vegetation along the beach, which is hard to find in other beaches.
Mingjing Lake in Tawan-covering an area of 3 square kilometers, most of the time it is calm, the water is blue and clear, and the seabed is gentle, so it is suitable to carry out various water activities in the bay; There are all kinds of offshore fish in the Bay, which are suitable for fishing, catching and caging. Now, it has been developed into the project "Antique Fisheries in Tawan Sea Area". Visitors can go to the sea and have a good view of the sea. They can fish, catch, cage, slide and pull all kinds of fishing operations and experience the life of ancient fishermen. Located in the northeast of Peach Blossom Island, it covers an area of only 0.78 square kilometers, and the highest peak is 139.6 meters above sea level. There are many trees, reeds and thatchs on the island, and there are rich shellfish products, such as beaches, rocks, caves, reefs and cliff landscapes. It is a place for enjoying the cliff scenery, collecting treasures, fishing, camping and camping.
Dinghai City —— Located on the beach at the back door of Egret Gate, it is one of the main scenic spots where the film Opium War was filmed in Zhoushan. The battle for Dinghai in Opium War is the climax of the whole film, and the battle scene is tragic and fierce, which shows the indomitable spirit of the people of China. The whole city wall is 230m long,12m wide and12m high, with towers, ancient gun emplacements, arrow stacks, flagpoles and other facilities, cornices and wings, and black tile red walls. The whole city wall is simple, elegant and magnificent. This scenic spot features peaks and stones, while temples and caves are the main parts. The peak is the Anqing peak, 540 meters above sea level, the first peak in Qiandao, Zhoushan. Stone-that is, the stone array, the strange rocks and rocks all over the mountain, form a "White House pilgrimage" landscape, which is vast and moving towards the "Guanyin Stone" of Purdue sentient beings. Temple-Shengyan Temple, located at Mi Shan 'ao at an altitude of 460, is the highest temple in Qiandao, Zhoushan. Cave-the An 'an alchemy cave, a natural cave at an altitude of 482 meters, is the place where An Qisheng, a hermit in the pre-Qin Dynasty, practiced alchemy. This peak, stone, cave and cave are all unique in Zhoushan. This scenic spot has the characteristics of green mountains, water songs, interesting rocks, strange peaks, secluded scenery and refreshing atmosphere, and is the only way for the Taohua Island female dragon tourism line.
Anqi alchemy cave-located at an altitude of 482 meters, it is said that An Qisheng lived in seclusion in Anqi Peak, a natural cave, to avoid the Qin Dynasty, and became a saint worshipped by later generations. Qin Shihuang and the emperors in the later dynasties sent an imperial envoy to search for An Qisheng. Some saw his white hair and called him "Chitose Man". Some saw him eating giant dates, but he refused to return after several attempts. Wu Lai (1327), a litterateur of the Yuan Dynasty, also visited An Qisheng during his autumn tour of Taohua Mountain, and visited the ruins of an alchemist cave. There is a poem that "there is a pot for refining medicine, but no one knows it".
Shengyan Temple-It was founded in Tongzhi 4 years of Qing Dynasty (1865). There is a sacred rock temple on the mountain, which was built in a natural cave at an altitude of 482 meters. It has a history of more than 400 years. At that time, it was located in the "An 'an alchemy cave". According to legend, An Qisheng learned alchemy in this cave. There is still a stone Buddha niche built in the 27th year of Guangxu reign (1894) in the cave. 1986 was separated from the alchemy cave and built again, which became today's sacred rock temple. She is carefully constructed according to the mountain, and it is divided into three layers, namely, An 'an Bridge, Release Pond and Temple. Dedicated to Sakyamuni Buddha, Shengyan Temple is the highest temple on Qiandao Island in Zhoushan, so it is called "the first temple on Qiandao Island".
There is a cave in the sky-about a hundred meters from Shengyan Temple along this mountain road, that is, there are huge stones towering over the sky, forming a natural cave. The cave is 3 meters high and 4 meters wide, with two holes connected, and the stone says "There is a cave in the sky". When you enter this cave, you step noisily, take stones and hit them everywhere, and when you look closely, there are many huge stones overlapping here, so there is a hole outside the cave and a hole at the bottom of the cave, so some people call it "there is a hole in the sky."
Bell Pavilion-Climbing up the stairs along the left side of "There is a cave", there is a hexagonal bell pavilion at the top of a mountain about 500 meters high, which is more than 6 meters high, with finely carved cornices and wings. The front side is hung with a horizontal plaque of "Peace Bell", and on both sides are couplets of "Yun Shan Yun Shui Yun Tao Yun Yun Tian, Fairy Fairy Fairy Mountain Fairy Cave Fairy Realm", and a 2500 kg mouth is hung in the pavilion.
