Jinshan Jumping Stone Coast Introduction
Along the Danjin Highway heading towards Shimen, the mountain cliffs are in close proximity to the sea, stretching for several tens of kilometers along the coastline. Scattered along the shore are pebbles of various sizes, and waves crash against the beach, creating a beautiful scene every autumn and winter. The changing cloud patterns in the northern coastline sky create a stunning landscape that has become the classic scenery of Jumping Stone Coast, attracting countless travelers to visit. Whether sipping afternoon tea at a nearby café or strolling along the coastline to feel the sea breeze, one can enjoy the unbeatable beauty of Jumping Stone Coast. The name "Jumping Stone Coast" originated before the opening of the Danjin Highway, when the turbulent sea waves hindered travelers. When residents and traders passed through this area, they had to wait for the tide to recede before they could jump over the scattered pebbles, making the process quite arduous, hence the name "Jumping Stone Coast." At this lengthy coastline, one can converse with stones from thousands of years ago. Here, rounded pebbles are abundant, formed from volcanic rocks ejected during the volcanic activity of Mt. Datun thousands of years ago. After landslides, many stones rolled down and gradually accumulated to form the beach. Through the long-term erosion of the waves and the influence of the northeast monsoon, these rounded pebble beaches were created, forming a unique volcanic coastal landscape. It is a perfect spot for travelers to pause, engage with Jumping Stone Coast, and enjoy leisurely moments of relaxation.
