Car from island

Cheyou Island, also known as Gaoshan Island, is located in the east of the central part of the long island. In the vast ocean, it is just a grain of sand. However, the sea is deep and charming, and the island is small and interesting. There are tens of thousands of seagulls on the island, which is called "wanniao island".

The best time to watch birds is around May every year, when seagulls and other birds hatch and brood. Seabird watching is not only near this island, but also around several islands. The general sea tour route will also pass through several islands, and some will leave some time for tourists to go to the island. So don't forget to bring some hard bread to feed the seagulls when you go to the upper reaches of the sea.

Introduction to scenic spots

Wanniao island is located in the east of the central part of the long island. It is 73.5 meters above sea level and only 0.05 square kilometers above sea level. In the vast ocean, it is just a tiny grain of sand. However, the sea is deep and charming, and the island is small and interesting. It is later called wanniao island because it inhabits tens of thousands of seabirds such as black tailed gulls, sea cormorants and white waisted swiftlets. The cliffs account for more than 90% of the coastal landforms. The cliffs are interbedded with quartzite and slate, with developed joints and strong fragility. After thousands of years of weathering and sea erosion, the cliffs are convex and concave, with stone steps, platforms, caves and caves lined up, forming a natural "Seagull tower". Every year in April and may, thousands of seagulls settle down here to forage, play, rest and have children. At this time, the island became a noisy bird kingdom, a boiling theater, and a paradise for seagulls.

Wanniao Island, from a distance, looks like an anchored landing ship. The coastline of the whole island is 1.25 km long. There is no road around the island by car, but there is a culvert in the middle to reach the mountainside. It is called "Tongtian road", which is extremely steep. But if you climb up bravely, you can enjoy the boundless scenery. Walking on the road to heaven is like being in the kingdom of seagulls. You can easily touch the wings of birds. The beautiful song of gulls is melodious. When you climb to the top of the mountain, the dense gulls are flying around you. You can enjoy this peerless picture of gulls at will.

When you take a boat to the island and look up at the cliff, you can see the shadow of the gulls and the sound of the birds. Tens of thousands of gulls, the swiftlet with white waisted, the Sea Cormorant, and the flat billed seabird make up the sky of birds, the sea of birds, and the island of birds. The scene is quite spectacular.

Features of scenic spots

Migratory birds are the most trustworthy messengers. In September and October every year, migratory birds from Siberia, Daxing'an Mountains and Xiaoxing'an Mountains in Northeast China, Changbai Mountains and Inner Mongolia grassland pass through Liaodong Peninsula and Hainan, and most of them fly through Changdao. There are 274 species of migratory birds in 51 families of 19 orders passing through here every year.

In 1982, Shandong provincial government listed Changdao as a bird nature reserve. Migratory bird banding is a science. In 1985, long island established the center station of migratory bird banding. In recent years, more than 5000 migratory birds have sent back information in 11 counties of 7 provinces, ranking first in terms of trade and recycling in China. In order to launch this tourism project with island characteristics, which integrates knowledge, interest and participation, Changdao specially arranges this migratory bird release route every autumn.

The enchantment of the high mountain island is far more than that. The strange shape and steep sea erosion cliffs around the island affect the hearts of tourists to the island. Take a boat to the southwest of Gaoshan island. You can see the highest point of the island, which is called "Motianling". The amazing thing is that the steep cliff suddenly hangs up at the bottom, and there are only four stone pillars to support it. The four stone pillars divide the corner of the island into four holes. The holes are connected, and you can go boating. It's very magnificent. No matter from which point of view is the elephant trunk shape, this is "elephant trunk hole", one of the largest holes, known as "lock dragon hole".

Topography of scenic spot

The car from the island is small and exquisite. From a distance, it looks like a gold seal with exquisite carving. It was called "emperor's treasure" in ancient times. When you come near, you can see the steep cliffs of the island. Most of these cliffs are quartzite and polar rock, which are easily broken. After weathering and sea erosion, the cliffs are hollowed out, and the stone steps, platforms, caves and caves are connected with each other, forming a natural "stone building" for seagulls to inhabit. It is covered with bird fat and white as snow, which is the evidence of the seagulls breeding here for generations. Only a cave in the middle of the island can lead to the hillside, which is extremely steep. It is called "Tongtian road". There is no road to other places. Walking on the road to heaven, you can easily touch the wings of the birds, just like you are in the kingdom of seagulls; when you reach the top of the mountain, the birds are all under your feet again.

Every time a ship sails here, thousands of gulls spread their wings and fly. The white feathers cover the sky and cover the sea. The ship seems to be driving in the clouds.

The terrain of the island is very steep, most of which are cliffs and cliffs. Through a long culvert, there is a path leading to the top of the mountain. Walking along this path, you can see groups of seagulls standing on the cliffs, and some seagulls will pass by from time to time. You can also see seagulls singing in your ears, and you can also see seagulls preying on the sea.

The transparency of the water here is very good, you can clearly see the blue water, the size of the reef in the sea and the kelp floating in the water. The island is very quiet, only the sound of the waves beating on the rocks and the calls of the seagulls are intertwined. This is the first time that I have observed them from such a close distance. They don't seem to care much about the arrival of my uninvited guest. They are busy building nests and looking for food. When I got to the top of the mountain, my vision suddenly widened. From a distance, I could see all the islands and fishing boats in the distance, and from near, I could see seagulls perched on the cliff on the reef. Sitting on the flat ground at the top of the mountain, the sea breeze blows,

Wanniao island is looking at the sparkling sea in the distance. Groups of seagulls are flying over my head, enjoying the warm sunshine. My heart seems to fly with the seagulls' wings.

Wanniao Island, located in the middle of Long Island, is the island with the largest number of black tailed gulls in northern China. From late April to late July, the number of gulls on the island is the largest, reaching more than 200000. Because wanniao island is small and far away from beichangshan Island, when there are few tourists, the boat trips to wanniao island are uncertain, and tourists need to arrange their own schedule in advance.

Wanniao island is the world of seagulls, so please don't disturb their life too much, especially in May when they lay eggs and hatch.

It is said that the Third Prince of Aoguang, the Dragon King, often committed crimes in the four seas. The eight immortals designed to lock him in the cave. Later, the Dragon King asked the emperor for help, and the emperor intended to release him. Wanniao island was afraid that the eight immortals would have an opinion, so it asked the God to open another hole at the back of the cave and release the Dragon Prince. Therefore, the cave is now connected back and forth. Whenever the waves rush in, the deep cave will make a sound like "dragon chant", as if the prince dragon is still here.

On the high mountain island, you can see all kinds of islands and reefs around, such as Longtou reef, Jinchan reef, peacock reef, Yuhu reef, Tianmen cave, seal cave, strange reef and mysterious cave. Sister peak in the northeast, two high and one low reefs, just like two sisters in the sea.
