Quiet Crocodile Introduction
Under the beautiful sunlight, the dreamy奇岩 (Qiyán) is located on the west coast of Qingshui Ao, Xiyin. It is a piece of land that juts into the sea and, when viewed from a distance, resembles a giant crocodile, lifelike with a mouth and legs, even vaguely discernible claws, lying still as if preparing to enter the sea! Therefore, the locals call it "Crocodile Island," also known as "The Lying Crocodile." There is a local legend that in the past, a ferocious crocodile followed fish schools along the river to Qingshui Ao, often causing trouble for fishermen. Fortunately, with the help of the Jade Emperor, the crocodile was subdued and its soul returned to the west coast of Qingshui Ao, thus shaping the appearance of Crocodile Island today. The Invincible Sea View Area of Dongyin - San Mountain Base is located at the far left of the Lying Crocodile, serving as an important stronghold guarding the western sea area of Dongyin. The view here is excellent, providing a panoramic view of the surrounding waters. The name San Mountain Base comes from the military needs of earlier years, where the site of Dongchong Lighthouse on Shiwai Mountain was named "High Ground No. 1," and the high ground at the far west of Xiyin Island was named "High Ground No. 33." This is the westernmost stronghold in the Dongyin defense area. Due to a military error in the stone carving, it is now also called "San Mountain Base." It is currently open to the public, and on clear days, it offers a chance to view Liudao (Liu Island), Nanbeijan (Northern and Southern Poles), or coastal islands of the mainland from here!
