Introduction

Daishan Island, also known as Penglai Fairy Island, is a small island dotted like lotus flowers on the vast East China Sea. Its features include seawater, beaches, reefs, seafood, and fishing fires. The island also has the remains of the Dachun Temple site from the Neolithic Age, as well as traces left by the ancestors who engaged in fishing, hunting, and cooking on the island over 4000 years ago. Daishan Island is like an overseas fairy mountain, always filled with a subtle scent of the sea and the taste of salt, and the air is often filled with the breath of the ocean. Under the sunlight, taking a stroll on the soft sandy beach, watching the waves roll, lying by the seaside hot spring, and listening to the sound of the sea waves. The nights on Daishan Island are lively and alluring. Seafood stalls are lined up along the coast, waiting for guests. They are filled with fresh and tender sea fish and lively sea prawns, all carefully selected by the owners from the nearby seaside harbor. After enjoying a satisfying meal and drink, taking a leisurely drive alone, listening to the sound of the waves crashing and the guitar player in the distance, it couldn't be more pleasant.
