Crocodile Mountain Volcano Park
Located on the west side of Nanwan, Weizhou Island, at Crocodile Ridge, about 4 kilometers from the town center, here you can see the most complete volcanic activity relics. The park also features the island's iconic building - the lighthouse, which serves as a guardian light for fishermen. Climb to the observation deck at the top of the tower to gaze at the vast blue coastline.
Dishui Danping
Originally named Dishui Rock, the upper part of the cliff is shaded by green trees, and water often overflows from the cracks between the layers on the wall, dripping down bit by bit like a hanging bead curtain.
Nanwan Seafood Market
Located in the center of Nanwan Town, it is a great place to experience local life as local fishermen sell their catch here. It is also a popular spot for tourists to buy seafood. Various seafood is sold throughout the day, including mantis shrimp, slipper lobster, scallops, flounder, and more. The seafood is abundant and fresh, with prices varying according to the season. The prices are generally affordable, and the quantities are usually fair. If you are not familiar with buying seafood, you can ask the innkeeper for help.
Shiluokou Beach
It is a hub for marine entertainment and one of the best diving bases on Weizhou Island. Due to its geographical location, the sea here has a very low sand content, making it as clear as sapphire, the best on the island. The sand is beautiful and soft, appearing very white under the sunlight. The indescribable scenery on the beach makes it a place one would never want to leave.
Church of Our Lady
The Church of Our Lady was built in 1882 and is a typical European rural Gothic chapel. In front of the church is a three-story square bell tower with the words 'Church of Our Lady' carved on the front. Behind the bell tower is a rectangular church and a two-story small building. The French priest who built the second church more than a hundred years ago is buried in the Church of Our Lady.
Weizhou Island Wetland Park
In summer, you can see many birds resting here. Now, it is just a reed pond.
Catholic Church
A typical Gothic architecture from the French Renaissance period, one of the four major Catholic churches in the late Qing Dynasty, it is a historical witness to the symbiosis of Chinese and Western cultures. The ancient church has not been processed or renovated, and all building materials are sourced from the island's corals, rocks, and lime. It took ten years to complete, making it very special. The exterior of the church seems to reflect the old Shanghai of the 1920s, and once inside, it gives a feeling of tranquility and contemplation.
