Ishikawa Island is adjacent to Mazu in the east, Penghu in the west and Hujiang in the south. It is said that there is a cave on the island, which connects the north and the south and can sail. The dialect "Chuan" is homophonic with "Chuan", hence the name "Ishikawa". Because it is shaped like a banana, it is also called Banana Island. It is said that Banana Island was initiated by a fan bag.
Ishikawa Island is surrounded by the sea, and there are many mountains, canyons, steep peaks and rocky cliffs on the coast. People use the sea as a field to produce yellow croaker, pomfret, pond fish and oysters. , and enjoy the reputation of "sea garden".
Legends handed down from generation to generation
At the eastern end of Ishikawa Island, there are beautiful buttes and dangerous rocks. Tong Guan Naval Station, Provincial Marine Meteorological Station and Weightlifting Training Base are all located in mountainous areas. Standing on the top of the mountain, looking eastward, you can see everything in a glance, with vast smoke waves and spectacular islands, which is a scenic spot overlooking Mazu. In the sea, Mazu Islands are like a string of sparkling pearls, scattered in the vast blue waves. According to legend, in ancient times, there was a beautiful and kind fairy named Mazupo on Jade Mountain in Taiwan, who was a sister with the Queen Mother of Kunlun Mountain and Guanyin in Nanhai. She saw that there were no horses in Taiwan Province Province, and people had difficulty communicating with each other. She flew to Kunlun Mountain and asked her sister for many small mud horses. As a result, she accidentally lost one on her way back. Later, the little mud horse became an island and lay in the sea. That's Mazu Island.
The beaches of Chuan Dao.
There are beautiful beaches in the south of Ishikawa Island, far from the bustling downtown, with quiet environment and fresh air. In summer, the bathing beach is a good place to play and learn to swim. When you are tired of playing, you can lie on the soft and warm beach and enjoy the sand bath. The bathing beach is also equipped with motorboats, and "speedboat surfing" is like a flying boat, shuttling between "Qianli Garden and Qianli Fish Pond", which is very spectacular and comfortable.
At low tide, the vast sediment in this area is enough to make you have an addiction to begging for a small sea. You see, on those rugged beaches, there are bouncing shrimp, stranded fish, rampant crabs, and conchs crawling along rocks in clear seawater.
At night, this area is the Eden that lovers yearn for. In the dissolved moonlight, the sea breeze blows gently, and the tides flow in twos and threes. Walking hand in hand on the beach, walking in the jungle, there is endless romance.
