Yanzhou bridge spans Kaozhou ocean, starts from Huangbu Wangjingzhou in the north, connects Yanzhou in the south, and connects with new Lijia village seawall. The total length of the main bridge is 1105.4 meters. The cool sea breeze and beautiful sea view all add color to the bridge.

When I first went to Yanzhou Island, I could see that there were no high-rise buildings, the tallest houses were only three or four stories high, and the rural flavor was basically preserved on both sides of the road. "Yanzhou island has no industrial development, and tourism development is still" virgin land. " Wang Hui, a member of the Party committee of Huangbu Town, is a native "Islander" of Yanzhou.

Relying on the island's original villages and large national wetland parks, there are countless egrets living in the mangroves in the sea, which has become a bird watching paradise and attracted a large number of tourists.

Planting mangroves to lead birds home

After entering Yanzhou island through Yanzhou bridge, Baisha village is less than one kilometer away. The bird watching platform of Mangrove Wetland Park under construction is located in the village, where you can see mangroves and beaches in kaozhouyang from a high position.

In the afternoon, the tide just faded, and under the Birdwatching platform is the mangrove which has just been planted, bare on the beach. Take a close look at the beach, countless crabs in the "rampage.". When the setting sun fills the sky, from the bird watching platform, the calm sea reflects the mottled light and shadow of mangroves.
