Mystery Bay Introduction
The Healing Mysterious Coast is a secret little bay located at the Aokou on the path from the Fuzheng Settlement to the Dapu Settlement. It is a newly named attraction in recent years, with an expansive ocean view that broadens the mind and heart. During the season when blue tears are prevalent, this spot is also one of the hotspots for viewing bioluminescence in Dongjue Island, where one can appreciate the large areas of blue glow from above the fjord. From certain angles, the sea-eroded pillars and grooves in the bay spark the imagination, leading to the folk tales of Lü Dongbin and He Xiangu attaining immortality here, hence its alternative name “Lü He Cliff.” At the lower right of the platform, there is a balancing rock, rumored to be the jade seal of the Jade Emperor, placed to subdue the two immortal figures Lü and He. When looking out from the right side of the platform towards the ridge line, it resembles a stone lion guarding the jade seal. Beneath the stone lion, there is a sharp sea-eroded pillar visible at high tide, resembling a shark, while at low tide, it looks like a rhinoceros closely accompanying the stone lion. Above the bay to the east, there is a pit known by the locals as the "Swallow's Nest," a gathering place for birds. There was once a team from a television adventure program that ventured inside to film the cave’s interior, which leads out to the sea and was formerly a shortcut for oyster harvesters. It is said that during the past, pirates roamed the Matsu Islands, and this location was the best hiding place for locals to evade them. As there are still remnants of shells and unexploded ordnance within the pit, it is advised that visitors do not venture inside.
