Wushi gravel Beach

Located on the West Bank of Zhangzhou Bay, Zhujiajian, Zhoushan, Zhejiang Province, the Wushi gravel beach is more than 500 meters long, nearly 100 meters wide and about 5 meters high. It is composed of innumerable black and shiny pebbles naturally leaning against the slope. The magnificent and magnificent Wushi gravel beach is unique when the tide sounds on the beach every moonlit night.

The origin of history

According to historical research, the cliff rock on the southwest side of the harbor has been impacted by the waves for many years. This kind of hard, fine-grained, dark black andesite constantly breaks into stones of different sizes and falls into the bay. It is repeatedly rolled, washed, tossed and polished by the tide of the waves, and gradually grinds into black and shiny pebbles. The waves push these pebbles to the coast, after millions of years It is the accumulation of years that forms this black gravel beach.

According to folklore, the pebbles on the beach are made of the scales of oolong, the Third Prince of the Dragon King of the East China Sea, who came to Zhangzhou fishing village to fulfill his wish.

Content introduction

350 meters, 100 meters wide and about 3 meters high, it is called "xiaowushitang". The two lying seawalls are all made of black and shiny cobblestones, which are naturally leaning against the slope. They are huge and magnificent.

Wushitang is famous for its pebbles. The pebbles are colorful, bright and lovely. They are as small as pearls and as big as goose eggs. They are comparable to Nanjing Yuhua stone. Dawushitang is located on the West Bank of Zhangzhou Bay, between shuitayan at the south foot of dapinggang and xiaojiaotou at miaoshantao. The hill on the outside of the mouth of the small reef looks like the dragon's head to the sea. Along the coast of the hill, the reef stands upright and has a peculiar shape, just like longan and longzui. There is a stone gap beside longzui, which is called Longdong by local fishermen. Whenever a typhoon is approaching, the cave will make a huge roar, which can be heard ten miles away. At this time, the wushitang and the Wushi on the water slope will be different, and they will fold up many vertical ditches. Every night in the bright moon, the clear and blue port of Zhangzhou glitters like countless Smurfs jumping on the sea. Under the moonlight, the sea tide, dressed in silver armor, beat the beach one after another, playing "sand La la Shasha The sound of "La La La" is just like the sound of nature. At this time, if visitors lie on the cool and clean gravel, look at the moon, listen to the tide, daydream, suddenly into a dreamland, people call this scene "Wutang tide".
