Potala Palace on the sea

The stone house building community of fishing village in Qingbang Island, Dongji Town, Zhoushan, Zhejiang Province, is known as "Potala Palace on the sea".

brief introduction

Dongji Town, about 40 nautical miles east of Putuo Mountain, is the easternmost island inhabited by Chinese people. Dongji town is composed of 108 islands and reefs. There are four Juren islands: miaozihu, Qingbang, Huangxing and dongfushan. Dongji Town, formerly known as zhongjieshan islands, is a famous fishing ground. In the 1970s, there were more than 20000 people living on the island. With the decline of fishery resources, the residents moved out gradually, forming a good natural environment. The East pole is adjacent to the Pacific Ocean, and 12 nautical miles outside the island is the high seas. It is the easternmost island under the actual jurisdiction of the people's Republic of China and the easternmost island garrisoned by the border defense forces of the Chinese people's Liberation Army.

Historical evolution

Town government in miaozihu Island Nan'ao. Dongji is a township of Longzhou county (today's Daishan County). After liberation in November 1953, it was under the jurisdiction of Putuo county at that time. At the end of the same year, the people's Government of Dongji district was established, under which four townships, miaozihu, Qingbang, Huangxing and dongfushan, were under the jurisdiction. In September 1958, three townships, miaozihu, Qingdong and Huangxing, were established as Dongji people's commune. In 1964, Dongji district was restored. In September 1984, four communes were reorganized into four townships In May 1992, the eastern polar region and four townships of Qingbang, miaozihu, Huangxing and dongfushan were called the eastern polar town. There are 6600 registered people in the town (11724 people when the population of the town was the largest, about 4000 people from other places), while the actual resident population is about 3000 people. The population is concentrated in miaozihu island. Among them, the resident population of Qingbang, Huangxing and dongfushan changes with the production season. There are 2700 fishery workers (including those in Shen company).

Dongji town is located about 45 kilometers east of Putuo Mountain. There are 28 islands and 108 reefs. There are miaozihu, Qingbang, Huangxing and dongfushan as four resident islands. Dongji fishermen's customs are strong, simple and beautiful. It is the most typical and concentrated place of seamount scenery and fishermen's customs in Zhoushan Archipelago, With pleasant climate and clear water quality, it is a "rare pure place", known by tourists as the Potala Palace on the sea, a harbor for the soul and a paradise for recreation. With the decline of fishery resources, residents are gradually moving out, forming a good natural environment. Dongji town government is trying to develop Dongji from a big fishing town to a strong tourism town.

Tourism development

Analysis on the transformation of East pole from a big fishing town to a strong tourism town

Before that, the East pole fishery was the leading industry of the whole town. Since 1985, the fishery stock cooperation system has been implemented, with shrimp dragging as the main operation. With the adjustment of fishery structure, the production pattern of dragging, sliding, rising, catching, fishing and raising has gradually formed, and the fishery economy has shown a momentum of rapid growth. By the end of 2001, there were 593 fishing boats of various sizes (340 in Shenyang), with a total horsepower of 84274 and a total tonnage of 31474 tons. Among them, there are 138 steel fishing vessels with 120-450 horsepower or more. The total output value of fishery is 253 million yuan, and the total output of fishery reaches 48878 tons. Other industries include Dongji power plant and Miaozi shipyard. Dongji power plant: built in 1985 and put into operation in September 1988, it is a town run enterprise with fixed assets of 850000 yuan and a construction area of 150 square meters. It has 4 sets of generating units with a total power of 460 kW, annual generating capacity of 100000 kWh and annual loss of 130000 yuan. The cross sea flying cable is used to connect miaozihu and Qingbang islands, and the daily power supply time is 17.5 hours. From 2001 to 2002, the power grids of miaozihu and Qingbang islands were comprehensively transformed, with a total investment of 750000 yuan. At present, the electricity charge has been reduced from 2-2.5 yuan / kWh to 1.8-2.3 yuan / kWh. Miaozi shipyard and Qingbang shipyard: built in 1973 and 1976 respectively, they are town run enterprises with fixed assets of 140000 yuan and 150000 yuan respectively, covering an area of 1200 square meters and 1500 square meters respectively, and their production capacity is to repair wooden shell fishing boats of less than 80 tons. Among them, Qingbang shipyard is closed. The construction of these industrial facilities has solved the difficulty of water and electricity for the people on the island. However, due to the shortage of fresh water resources, water still needs to be saved, and the price is relatively expensive. The use of electricity is similar to that of water. Because of its special natural environment, coal oil can only be used for power generation on the island, so the town government needs to subsidize these enterprises every year, and the enterprises are basically operated on load, and the state has no choice subsidy.

If the island does not take corresponding measures to solve the current problems, the East pole will not be able to continue to survive. These reasons are also related to the low cultural level of the local Islanders. In order to survive, they do not consider sustainable development. As a result, the fishery resources are decreasing year by year. With the development of the island, the town government has constantly issued some policies to solve these problems, but the quality can not keep up A lot of propaganda and policies are also difficult to manage. Islanders depend on the sea to eat the sea. If they are not allowed to fish, they will lose their lives. The task is very arduous.

With the change of the concept of tourism in today's big cities, getting close to nature is the theme of today's tourism. The pure natural environment of East pole makes it possible to develop it into a tourism island. Dongji Zhenfu saw its own advantages in time, and summed up six advantages of Dongji: 1. Unique charm of sea area; 2. Rich and colorful reef resources; 3. Beautiful polar scenery; 4. Majestic mountain and stone landscape; 5. Simple and mellow fishermen's customs 6. The deep connotation of rural heritage boldly puts forward the strategic goal of developing the East pole from a big fishing town to a strong tourism town, and vigorously invests in the development of infrastructure. While maintaining the existing Island infrastructure to meet the needs of residents' daily life, it also increases the investment in infrastructure matching with the tourism industry. Actively introduce foreign powerful economic entities, and gradually develop the tourism industry in the East pole, so as to drive the investment of other industries. Some measures are as follows:

Planning built

1. In 2003, it is planned to invest 100000 yuan to complete the miaozihu cable TV frequency increase project, specifically from the current 14 channels to 20 channels.

2. From 2002 to 2005, it is planned to invest 1.08 million yuan to construct miaozihu national defense highway.

3. In 2002, it is planned to invest 300000 yuan to build a waste treatment plant on miaozihu island and Qingbang Island respectively.

4. In 2001, it is planned to invest 700000 yuan to upgrade the facilities and network of Dongji power plant.

5. In 2003, it is planned to invest 1.5 million yuan to expand the Miaozi hubei'ao passenger ferry terminal from the original 50 ton class to 300 ton class.

6. In 2002, it is planned to invest 1.3 million yuan to build a new Dongji passenger ship, which is 30 meters long and 6 meters wide.

7. In 2002, it is planned to invest 300000 yuan to renovate the water supply system of Dongji waterworks. Focus on the water supply pipeline, reservoir expansion and desilting, water station facilities update.

8. In 2002, it is planned to invest 500000 yuan in the construction of miaozihu cemetery and remove the tombs originally built on both sides of the highway from the middle school to haifangying.

9. In 2003, it is planned to invest 200000 yuan to build Qingbang tunnel well with a capacity of about 800 cubic meters.

10. In 2004, it is planned to invest 1.56 million yuan to complete the shoreline reinforcement project of miaozihu fishing port.

11. From 2002 to 2005, it is planned to invest 750000 yuan, focusing on the tourism infrastructure construction projects (roads, pavilions and scenic spots) of four islands, including dongfushan.

However, Dongji is an important frontier defense area, and tourism has just been developed. The corresponding facilities are not perfect. Most of the people who go to Dongji now are to experience the life of fishermen and appreciate the customs of fishing villages. Moreover, due to the weather, shipping schedule and poor conditions of long-distance passenger ships, the number of tourists in the East pole is relatively restricted. From the current point of view, the limitations of the East pole tourism are relatively large. It mainly focuses on island exploration and desert island tourism. It is more suitable for backpackers and self-help tourists to explore, take photos and sketch. There is still a long way to go from mass tourism. He said that when large luxury yachts can get to the East pole wharf and tourists can afford to rent helicopters, tourism in East pole will usher in an era of large-scale development. However, the change of economic point is the requirement of the times and the requirement of social development. While maintaining the fishery economy, we will vigorously develop tourism and increase the production and income of the islanders.

geographic conditions

It is about 45.5km away from Shenjiamen. With a land area of 11.7 square kilometers, there are 28 Islands (24 uninhabited), including miaozihu, Qingbang, Huangxing and dongfushan. Twelve miles away is the high seas. Less pollution, blue water. Four seasons sea breeze blowing, near the ocean climate.

Traffic situation

Due to the unique geographical location of the East pole, there is no land transportation. There is only one passenger ship running at Shenjia at 8:15 a.m. every day
