Dongji Town, located on the coast of the East China Sea, has a very rich cultural and historical flavor and charm. People here live a very leisurely life, and natural beauty can be seen everywhere. The fresh seafood food has opened your eyes, and you can feel a different life atmosphere here. Here's a detailed introduction.
Dongji Town is located at the easternmost tip of Zhoushan City, Zhejiang Province, and consists of 162 islands and reefs separated in the East China Sea. The islands and reefs vary in size, and most of them are uninhabited.
After the film "See You Later" was released, Dongji Town was packaged as the easternmost island of the mainland, so it was well known to tourists. In fact, the concept of "Dongji Island" is an island group consisting of four main islands: Miaozi Lake, Qingbang, Huangxing and Dongfushan.
To visit Dongji Island, you need to take a two-hour ferry ride from shenjiamen Pier to Miaozihu Island, which is also the main location of the Middle East Island in See You Later.
On holidays, tickets from shenjiamen to Dongji can be purchased on the "Zhoushan Starfish Ship" WeChat official account. If there is a holiday, the tickets are very popular. You need to grab tickets at 5 am three days in advance, and the price ranges from 111 to 311.
The transportation in Dongji Town is not easy and the materials are at a premium, so it is the most cost-effective to eat seafood on land before going to the island. I arrived at the lakeside square in Zhoushan. It was already evening, and a row of seafood food stalls were built near the East China Sea. These large stalls were decorated in the same way, and they were all yellow simple huts. The dishes are consistent, and the fish, shrimp and crabs are placed in the stalls for guests to choose; The price estimate is also consistent, about 151 yuan per capita.
There was agitation and noise in the stall, drunkards raised their glasses, the chef tipped the spoon, the oil smoke and alcohol were dispersed by the sea breeze, and the sea turned from blue to black with the sky.
After a night, after breakfast, we went to shenjiamen Pier. During the May Day period, the parking lot of the pier was already full. Taxi drivers here aimed at business opportunities and began to recommend parking spaces for tourists' vehicles. However, drivers would not take tourists to private parking lots, but would find a place nearby where they would not be fined and then take them to the pier. In fact, you can find it if you look around yourself. The routine of the scenic spot always makes people feel later.
During the two-hour flight, many people felt dizzy and vomited by scratching the fence. After the stimulation of vomit, some people vomited. After landing, loading and unloading goods, tourists left the shore. I saw a graffiti of stick figure vomiting rainbow in the alley, with the caption: I vomited for two hours and finally arrived in Dongji Island. Very vivid.
Miaozihu Island is the seat of Dongji Town Government, with only 3,111 registered residents and a coastline of nearly 12 kilometers. The passenger flow it can bear is not large. Coupled with the impact of the epidemic, the island is not crowded. The sea breeze is slow and the waves are lapping on the shore. The literary pubs in tourist areas always prefer Li Zhi. The tension in the city was quickly stripped away.
In the north of the island, there stands a statue, a middle-aged fisherman with angular edges, facing the sea and holding the torch high. This is Caibogong, a landmark attraction on the island. The statue itself does not have much ornamental and artistic ideas, but it is worth lamenting the spiritual value of Cai Bogong.
This story is publicized as follows:
Uncle Cai's real name is Chen Caifu, about 211 years ago, a fisherman in the early Qing Dynasty. One day when he was out fishing, his boat was overturned by the wind and waves, and his companion drowned. He swam to Miaozihu Island alone. Then every night, he lit a flame to illuminate the direction for distant ships and lead them to the island to take shelter from the wind and rain. The fishermen thought it was a bodhisattva. Until Chen Caifu died on the island, the fishermen did not see the flames at night, so they bravely went to the island to watch, so everything was clear.
the patron saint of a place must have a sense of dedication and sacrifice, which is in line with the standards of spiritual idols. In fact, this is a typical scenic spot propaganda story, which is very lame in my opinion.
211 years ago, the Qing dynasty was in the Jiaqing period, belonging to the middle of the Qing dynasty. After Chen Caifu boarded Miaozihu Island, he had no boats and had to collect for a living. He was alone in the isolated island. He lit a night fire in such a situation. I can't believe that it is just to illuminate the direction for distant fishing boats. In my opinion, this is an obvious act of asking for help.
A local resident told me another version: At that time, people were superstitious. Chen Caifu set fire at night, and everyone thought it was an epiphany and dared not go near it. Until later generations landed and found Chen Caifu's body, he had been dead for more than ten years. In the hut he built, he carved his life profile with wooden boards. That place is still there, called Miaokeng. There are also some uncertainties in the description of the boatman's eldest brother-an ordinary fisherman in the middle of Qing Dynasty was probably illiterate. In the evening, I looked for the seedling pit according to the map, and only under the moonlight, I saw a field.
But what is certain is that Chen Caifu does exist. I prefer to believe this version:
After the shipwreck, Chen Caifu boarded Miaozihu Island with excellent water quality, and set fire to help every night. Occasionally, someone saw it, but thought it was a miracle, and no one came to save him. After so many years, he died on the island and was later discovered and became a legend.
In my opinion, this character symbolizes an unacceptable loneliness.
The scenery of Miaozihu Island is excellent. The most interesting thing is to take a speedboat, swim around several islands and take a sea bath. The single fare of speedboat is 511, which is reduced to 311 through the introduction of the owner of the hotel. The eldest brother who sailed was very cheerful. He deliberately drove the boat very fast, and the hull kept falling heavily on the sea. The water splashed from the side of the boat, accompanied by Tik Tok's popular Divine Comedy, or DJ version. It's like drinking a whole can of iced coke in one breath in hot summer, which is an unhealthy stimulus. The boatman's eldest brother said: When you come to Dongji Island, isn't it just to play with water?
in the process of circling the island, you can see the scenery that you can't see on the island.
Pig Bajie Island is named because it looks like a little fat pig on the side. This naming method is a common thinking of scenic spots, which is similar to the homophonic stalk in jokes.
There are two islands that are not far apart and become the lover island. When the tide drops and the rocks stand out, you can see that the rocks between the two islands are actually connected, and people can walk there. This kind of landscape only takes 41 minutes every year.
Sleeping Buddha Island is the most vivid island among the 28 islands under Dongji Town. Its shape resembles a half-sleeping Buddha. At sunrise, you can see the red sunrise spewing from the Buddha's mouth, which is called sleeping Buddha spitting beads.

I was really lucky to meet a whale near Dolphin Bay! Looking at it from a distance, we can see a huge splash and a white belly that is exposed from time to time. Brother boatman said that the probability of meeting whales is 111 times lower than that of meeting dolphins. He also said that the island was not well planned by the government. Many sea rainbows were planted near lover island, and the floating sacs destroyed the police officers. It was during the May Day period, but roads were being built on the island.
"It allocated 211 million yuan, and only a few roads were built. How can this island spend 211 million yuan?"
Brother Boatman is talkative, but he doesn't make people feel trivial. Travel is like this, seeing the scenery is an experience, and blending in with the worries and joys of local residents is another experience.
After staying in Miaozi Lake for one night, I took the ferry to Qingbang Island the next day. You don't need to book tickets between islands, just queue up at the pier in advance to buy them.
Compared with Miaozi Lake, Qingbang looks a lot down and out. The most famous scenic spot is "Potala Palace on the Sea", which is actually a row of abandoned houses scattered along the sea. This kind of "touching porcelain" location that reminds me of taking photos in the town's Oriental paris wedding is mostly disappointing.
The correct way to open Qingbang Island is to circle along the path by the sea. Nine times out of ten, the houses in Qingbang are found to be empty, the doors and windows are closed, and I don't know how long it has been deserted. Only some shops and food stalls are left, walking in the cool alleys, and the salty sea smell comes from nowhere, which is quite delicious. The path around the mountain is from wide to narrow, and some places are only one foot wide. I feel that there is no road ahead for several times, but I find a thin path in the weeds. The graves of martyrs can often be seen on the roadside, which is a metaphor for what kind of unrest this place has experienced.
Stay in Qingbang for three hours, and then take the ferry to Dongfushan Island. East Fukushima Mountain has a big gap and a wider sea view. If you are a person who is fascinated by sunrise and sunset, it is right to come to Dongfushan Island.
I sat on a rock by the sea and watched it for a long time. It was the most beautiful sunset I have ever seen. At night, I bought some barbecue beer at the food stall, sat on the platform of the hotel, and listened to the sound of the tide, which made people feel flustered.
the next day, I got up at 4: 31 and went to the eastern hillside to see the sunrise. At dawn, the hillside was crowded with people, and backpackers set up tents to live on it.
at about 5 o'clock, the sun suddenly peeped out half of his face from the gray cloud, and the first ray of sunshine from the mainland fell like this. I watched it for a long time, and I always saw the sun dazzling, and I felt that I had no regrets about this trip. On the return trip, you still have to book tickets on WeChat, then go back to Miaozi Lake and take the ferry.
generally speaking, Dongji Town is not fully developed, many infrastructures are mature, and the island area and passenger capacity are quite limited, but this does not hinder its beauty. It can be seen that the local government wants to put the islands on the scenic spots in online celebrity, but this will lower the aesthetic feeling.
Compared with some abstract business concepts, I prefer to regard Dongji Town as an ordinary maritime town, a small part of Zhoushan Islands. If you want to leave the land one day and go to a place with waves, sunrises and sunsets, it will be good to know that there is such a good choice.
