Xian Island Park, a lesser-known attraction in Qinzhou, Guangxi, has the largest bronze statue of Sun Yat-sen in the country and a thousand acres of mangrove forest

I've been to Qinzhou several times, mostly wandering around the city. This time I came to Qinzhou Port for the New Year holiday! There is a hidden gem, Qinzhou Port Xian Island Park which has the largest bronze statue of Sun Yat-sen in the country. Xian Island Park, also known as Yixian Park, was built in September 1995 to commemorate Mr. Sun Yat-sen's planning and construction of the "second largest port in the south" - Qinzhou Port. Because the island looks like a turtle from a high altitude, it is also called "Turtle Island". Xian Island Park mainly visits the bronze statue of Sun Yat-sen and tours the Maowei Sea Mangrove Nature Reserve, which is suitable for families to play and is free. Not far into the scenic area, the stairs that come face to face are a bit daunting. Climbing up the stairs, the highest point is Juying Platform. The largest bronze statue of Sun Yat-sen in the country stands on the Juying Platform. The base is surrounded by Han Baiyu bas-reliefs, engraved with stories from the Xinhai Revolution period. By the way, this is the first time I have seen people burning incense and worshiping at Mr. Sun Yat-sen's memorial site. It seems that the people of Qinzhou have deep feelings for Sun Yat-sen. The mountain is lush, with birds and flowers, and the fragrance of osmanthus is refreshing; facing the sea under the mountain, there are large areas of mangroves. It turns out that the Guangxi Maowei Sea Mangrove Nature Reserve is here, it's really big, I heard it's a thousand acres, walking on the plank road to see this beautiful scenery up close. To have a panoramic view, you must climb to the Diancui Pavilion, overlooking the mangroves and the sea Mangroves, growing on the beach, tropical plants, only in Guangdong, Guangxi, Hainan, and Fujian. It's called a mangrove, why is it all green?? Does anyone know? I heard that the sunset in Xian Island Park is very beautiful, but unfortunately I didn't wait for it, I recommend you to come here after four o'clock~ Practical information: Tickets: Free play At the end of the mangrove forest, there is a viewing pavilion, Diancui Pavilion, you must go!! The scenery is very good You can park at the entrance of the park🅿, and there are restaurants to eat; we chose the "Local Seafood" opposite the entrance, the taste is okay, and there are many people eating (open on the second day of the new year, per capita one hundred)
