Zhuhai Opera House "Sun and Moon Shell" is located on this island. The sea breeze blew towards me, and the scene in front of me attracted me: the driveway, greenway, pavilion, convenience store, viewing corridor around the island, high-rise buildings in the distance, and the vaguely visible Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge, and the beautiful white lighthouse in the distance...
The famous Sun and Moon Clams are on Yeli Island. It is very pleasant to walk to the island after dinner and enjoy the beautiful scenery while taking a walk to digest the food.
The closest island to Zhuhai. Yeli Island. A good place for leisure. Check out the Sun and Moon Shells
If there is a homestay on this island, I will definitely come next time. It is really convenient, close to the city, by the sea, and there are Haiyun City and Sun Moon Bay.
I have a particularly good impression of Zhuhai. The city is clean, the environment is beautiful, the air is fresh, and the scenery is pleasant!
You can see the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge from afar and the Sun Moon Shell Theatre up close. The seaside park is rich in vegetation, with charming scenery, gusts of coconut breeze, and palm trees along the way, which is a beautiful sight.
The island is not large, and there are Mobike and Hellobike available on the island, but you can only ride a certain distance, and no shared bikes are allowed to go in further. You can also rent a 3-person sightseeing bicycle and ride around the island, but the sightseeing bicycle cannot leave the island.
It’s nice to see the sea here, but unfortunately the water is too yellow, like the water of the Yellow River. Why?
If I lived here, I would like to come here for a morning run every day, or climb up the mountain to see the scenery, look out, and be in a daze. This little island feels like this.
Take a ride on a shared bike! I think it's beautiful! There are a lot of flowers on the island! If you don't want to ride a bike, you can just walk slowly! It's actually quite nice!
Staying in a nearby sea view hotel, you can see this place directly. I didn't make any travel plans, and came here the next day. There are a lot of people coming here on weekends, the mountains are green and the water is clear (the water quality is not good 🤨), but the theater is very unique, and there are many people riding shared bicycles on the island. There are also sightseeing buses, 20 yuan per person, lazy people recommend it.
There is a small hill on the island, overlooking the Zhuhai Theater, and the sunset is also beautiful
Yeli Island, also known as "Mingting Park", is located on the Lover's Road in the east of Xiangzhou District, Zhuhai City, Guangdong Province. It is the closest island to Zhuhai City and is very suitable for cycling.
You can enjoy the sea breeze at Yeli Island, and Zhuhai Opera House is also nearby, so it's very comfortable to take a walk. If you need to, you can go shopping~ The new CBD is here, and Yangming Plaza is also nearby~
It's really boring to go alone. I personally suggest that it's best to go with a girlfriend 😂
It's like a park, the environment is great, you can just ride a bike around, but the sea water is very dirty.
Yeli Island is adjacent to the Seaside Park and faces Zhuhai Fisher Girl across the sea. Walking around Yeli Island is refreshing. You can see the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge from Yeli Island.
The night view at night is very beautiful and worth a visit.
A small island is connected by a bridge, and the sun and moon shells are beautiful at night
The environment is particularly good. It is a park by the sea. The reefs by the sea are also very clean. Many people are catching crabs, haha.
The scenery along the way is close to the sea and the mountains, and the air is very fresh. It's just a little sunny, so you need to take sun protection measures. The more distinctive shell-shaped theater is appreciated.
Tickets for Yeli Island: Free Time reference: 1-2 hours Opening hours: Open all day Transportation: Bus: Take the bus to "Riyuebei" station or "Wanzaisha" station, you can walk or ride a bicycle to the island. Self-driving: Navigate to "Yeli Island", you can park nearby before going to the island. The upgraded shore of Yeli Island is equipped with simple metal guardrails, allowing tourists to play with peace of mind. The rich and diverse flowers and plants add a lot of brilliance to Yeli Island. When the weather is clear, it is a picture of green grass, birds and flowers. Cycling or walking, don't miss every beautiful flat and spacious seaside trail is very suitable for walking and running. Greenways are also set up here. Cycling is very good, riding while enjoying the vast sea view ~ If you don't ride a bike, you can choose to stop and go and enjoy the island life slowly.
Lovers Road, with sea breeze and beautiful sea view, is a good place to ride and visit
I went there for the Sun Moon Shell, but I couldn't enter any of the spots I wanted to take photos at. I was so disappointed. Bad review! Hum╭(╯^╰)╮
It's too sunny today. I can't open my eyes at noon. You should come in the evening. It's nice to take pictures of the sunset here.
I was really tired of being exposed to the sun, so I quickly circled the Sun Moon Shell and left.
It's OK, some parts are not open and are still under decoration
Yeli Island - I know Yeli Island because a friend asked her where in Zhuhai she felt was the most cozy and romantic. She said Yeli Island. The island is not big, and the mountain is not high. It is very popular among tourists because of its beauty and convenience. On holidays, locals like to go to the island with their families to play, sometimes climbing, sometimes flying kites, and sometimes just walking quietly. The comfort of Yeli Island comes naturally. Entering the island along the road, the island is lush with vegetation, and the hiking trail is winding and undulating. It was a bit windy when I went there. Standing on the island to take pictures, with the sky and water as the background, you only need to stand straight and smile slightly to make a beautiful photo.
I am a Chinese-foreign mixed race! I am looking for a partner to travel to Zhuhai in early February. It doesn't matter if I am male or female. It would be great to have two or three people! If you want to travel with me, please PM me.
On December 21, 2017, a group of six of us visited Yeli Island, led by a friend from Zhuhai. The island is surrounded by the sea and is only a few hundred meters away from the mainland. The famous Zhuhai Grand Theater was built and put into use in 2017. It's a pity that the island has just been damaged by a strong typhoon and the damage is serious. It is estimated that it will take ten years to recover.
Yeli Island is not big, but there is a port here. Nowadays, fishermen should set sail here. In addition, there is a big theater and a sea-viewing platform, which is suitable for family outings.
Don't rent bikes on Yeli Island or on the island. It's more cost-effective to pay the five-dollar dispatch fee and ride a shared bike. When we went there, Yeli Island was undergoing some messy renovation. As a result, there was only a little to see. In less than an hour, we had already visited the entire open area of the island. It was so annoying...
Take the bus to the department store (Yangming Plaza) and then ride a shared bicycle there. Some of the shops inside are not open yet, but there are still quite a few people. The sea breeze is very strong. It should be beautiful to watch the sunrise in the morning. The sea is in the east~~
You can see the sun and moon shells! It's nice to take a walk in good weather!
It’s nice to take a walk in the evening, in fact, if you can hike up the mountain, it can be a great weekend getaway.
2017.11 When we went to Yeli Island, they were doing construction, so we took a group photo at the stone tablet. The cats there were very friendly ԅ(¯ㅂ¯ԅ). We walked around the area, and there were still many constructions going on at Sun Moon Shell. The McDonald's we wanted to go to was not open yet(~_~;).
It's dark when you go there at night, there's not even a street light, and there are construction sites everywhere. The only thing you can see is the Zhuhai Grand Theater.
I was disappointed after traveling so far. It might be too hot.
The night view is amazing! The island closest to the city, with beautiful photos
Yeli Island, also known as "Mingting Park", is the island closest to Zhuhai city.
A super fun little island! Although it's not big! Not far away, you can ride a shared bicycle to go around the island, and then! Then! Then! The fun thing is! You can fish for crabs! As long as you have a line and some food, the greedy crabs will be caught! Super fun!
It's a medium-sized island. Its biggest advantage is that it's close to the city. You can go there by foot. It's a dating spot. Unfortunately, there's no beach. It's a good theater. I really admire it!!! Convenient transportation, complete facilities, OK environment, and great maintenance.
One day in Zhuhai, I checked my phone in the hotel and decided to go to this island. I took the bus to Xiangzhou Bus Station and then took Z211, a minibus, to the terminus, Sun Moon Bay, which is the Zhuhai Opera House. The building is quite unique. On the way back, I walked back along the bridge and took a beautiful photo. Later I found out that Yeli Island might be the mountain over there, and we only went to the Sun Moon Bay Opera House.
The island is not big but rugged, the mountain is not high but steep and beautiful, and the sea waves and rocks are especially praised.
We set off from Guangzhou to Zhuhai Qianshan Light Rail Station in the morning. The scenic route: Yuanming New Garden (antique) - Yeli Island (trendy architecture) - Seaside Park (overlooking Zhuhai by the sea) - Zhuhai Fisher Girl, Beach, Lovers' Road (legend has it that fairies descended to the earth). My colleagues were very satisfied with this trip. After the scenic spot, the driver sent us back to the light rail station.
Yeli Island is the closest to Xiangzhou Business District and the most convenient. However, the northeast of Yeli Island is under construction recently, so half of the island is closed. The notice says that the closure will be lifted on August 31. The most eye-catching things on the island are the Opera House and Deyuefang. One is a big shell and the other is a sea loft. Both are places with low consumption. In the evening, riding a Mobike along the unclosed seawall is still very comfortable.
Landmark location
Great for a walk
There are many ants
Bring mosquito repellent
Riding a bicycle, feeling the wind, looking at the beautiful scenery and humming a song
Yeli Island is very beautiful. It is a small island that is relatively easy to get to from Zhuhai city. Take a quiet detour, look at the blue sky, watch the blue sea, stand under the shade of coconut trees,
Starting from the hotel, not far south along Lover's Road is the entrance to Yeli Island, also known as Mingting Park. It is hard not to pay attention to this place, because it is not only a popular place for citizens to take a walk and relax, but also thanks to the large shell built on the island - Zhuhai Grand Theater is really eye-catching.
Yeli Island is a popular place for residents to walk. The coastal trail is about 5 km long, with lush flowers and trees along the way. On the grass on both sides of the road, some people set up small tents and daydream in the sea breeze. There is also a family happily flying kites and enjoying the family time. There are also elderly people riding along the way, enjoying the fun of traveling thousands of miles. Enjoying a lazy day in this land without haze, I want to say that the holiday in the south is so pleasant. Walking around the island along the trail, we also became citizens of Zhuhai.
Yeli Island is very close, just follow the Lovers' Road and cross the bridge to get there. There are many fishing boats on the beach. On the left side of the island is the Zhuhai Grand Theater, which is in the shape of a shell and white in color. It is also beautiful with the lighting effect at night. There is a small hill on the right side, with a lot of vegetation, which is called Yeli Island. The island is small and can be walked quickly by bike or on foot. There are not many tourists on weekdays. It is very comfortable to sit on the reef.
Also known as "Mingting Park", it is located in the east of Xiangzhou, Zhuhai City, Guangdong Province, in the northwest of Zhuhai City, and is the closest island to Zhuhai City.
Walking into Yeli Island, there were not many tourists. I looked at the shell-shaped Zhuhai Grand Theater, but I didn't know whether it was completed. I walked half a circle around Yeli Island, sat on the rocks by the sea, looked into the distance, listened to the waves and the wind, it was very comfortable. I walked through the hills for exercise.
Hold a coconut and enjoy the sweet coconut juice. Walk out of the island and stroll in Xianglu Village. There are tourists in groups of three or two on the beach. Sit on a wooden chair by the sea and look out at the sea and beach at dusk. I am speechless. Time seems to be quiet and slow down.
It’s better to view it from a distance. Take a stroll on Yeli Island, feel the sea breeze and relax. You can also see the Pearl River Estuary from a closer distance. Jingshan Park, Lovers’ Road, Zhuhai Fisher Girl, Yeli Island, Seaside Park and Beach are all together and not far apart, so you can walk or ride a bike.
We walked all the way and finished the tour in one afternoon. Yeli Island is right opposite the downtown area of Xiangzhou, so it was very convenient for food and accommodation. We rushed to Yuanmingyuan the next day.
It's nice to go there when you go to Lovers' Road. It takes 30 to 40 minutes to walk around. There are many people and it's very comfortable. The evening is also beautiful.
Yeli Island: Free attractions. You can rent a bicycle to travel around the island. These places are enough to visit for a whole day. If you have enough time, you can go to Zhuhai Chimelong or visit the islands.
Yeli Island and Qiaoao Island are both famous scenic spots in Zhuhai. Both are connected to the land by bridges and can be reached without taking a boat. They are suitable for leisure strolling when you don’t have much time.
Just a stone's throw away from the famous Lovers' Road in the city, there lies an undeveloped virgin island, Yeli Island. Standing on Yeli Island and quietly looking at the sea level, Lin and I used to think it was something romantic that a couple should do~
Yeli Island is the closest island to the shore. We didn't have much time to go to the more distant islands such as Dong'ao Island. We rented a two-person bicycle with the child sitting in the back for 50 yuan per hour. It was still very comfortable to ride on the island. Although the sun was very hot that day, the sea breeze was blowing and it felt great! Another fun thing is to catch crabs. There are small crabs like this, and there are larger ones. The larger ones are very flexible and difficult to catch. The ride on Yeli Island is over
It was raining when I went there, and the wind was strong at the beach. I couldn't even hold my umbrella, so I walked halfway and then turned back.
Not far away is Yeli Island, a very small island, but there is the Zhuhai Opera House under construction. It is really super beautiful and shocking, much better than the Sydney Opera House. I always say that the Sydney Opera House is at the level of the Puppet Theater on the Third Ring Road in Beijing.
This is really super beautiful. Yeli Island is also very good. It is very comfortable to walk around and not tiring, but you must pay attention to sun protection. I browsed Yeli Island online, and then went to Lovers Road to see the scenery and houses. The house price is very expensive, it is already 30,000. I can only sigh and can't do anything. There are many small crabs and reptiles on the beach. The small crabs are cute, but the small reptiles are scary. After seeing the scenery, we went to eat
I rented a car and rode around. It's a good place for weekend leisure. It's not a very beautiful scenery, but it's good for walking and jogging in the morning.
Yeli Island, take bus 99 to Mingting Park Station and walk across a bridge that is several hundred meters long, and you will arrive. It is great that you don’t have to take a boat! You can also climb the mountain, which is not high. We also walked around it for a few times. There are two pavilions on it. We went to Chengxi Pavilion. When we went there, we bought a coconut 😁😁. The small shop was 15 yuan each, but when we walked halfway, we found a fruit farmer selling one for 10 yuan 😂😂. The scenery is also good and worth a visit.
One of the most important attractions in my trip. Looking at the sea across the mountain, there are many strange rocks on the beach, and the waves are quite fun. When a few of our companions were about to take pictures on the rocks, a big wave came over, hahahaha. The air on the mountain is also good, and there are not many pedestrians in the morning. It is recommended that you go in the morning, and it is best to bring some floral water. I took some photos on Yeli Island, and the scenery is pretty good. PS; everyone remember to take more photos with the strange rocks (zhuang).
I like it very much. The sea breeze and the light sunshine complement each other. Many families go there, which is warm. There are also many couples, which feels very romantic.
The island is so small that you can cycle around it in half an hour.
Yeli Island is an outlying island in the city, located in the Xiangzhou section of Lovers Road, connected by a cross-sea bridge. The island is built into a greenway with green trees. You can ride a bicycle around the island, bring an outdoor mat for a picnic, or fly a kite in the sea breeze. In the center of the island is a small hill with three artificial entrances. The difficulty of climbing the mountain increases from Entrance 1-2-3. Although the mountain is not high, some of the climbing roads are steeper and it is still a bit difficult for the elderly to walk. Zhuhai's most expensive opera house, Haibei, was also built here, becoming a unique landscape in Zhuhai. It is a very suitable attraction for family travel.
Zhuhai is known as the City of Hundred Islands, and it is not in vain. Yeli Island is the only island in the city of Zhuhai. It is recommended for tourists who do not have enough time for a short trip. It is suitable for walking in any season. You can also see the opera house in the distance. It used to be called Mingting Park, and it is also convenient to take a bus, which costs 9 or 99. If you have enough time, you can rent a bicycle and walk along the Lovers' Road by the sea. It is very romantic, especially in the summer night when the wind blows.
There are a lot of vegetation. There is the Zhuhai Grand Theater on the island, you can go there.
Yeli Island is the closest island to Zhuhai city. It is located between Xianglu Bay and Xiangzhou Bay on the east side of Zhuhai city, and is connected to the downtown area by the Haiyan Bridge. This is the best place for Zhuhai people to take a walk after dinner. There are greenways along the entire coastal highway (Lovers Road), which is also the best route for walking dogs, running and cycling. There is also a restaurant called Deyuefang with a historical ship shape next to it. Parking is free, entry to the island is free, and you can step on the stones to get close to the sea, and then stare at the sea in a daze until spring comes. The sunset is beautiful
A small island where you can cycle or run. Next to it is a restaurant called Deyuefang, which is shaped like a boat. It is brightly lit at night and is very beautiful.
Yeli Island, also known as Mingting Park, is an island park with no residents. Be careful if you are alone at night. It takes at least an hour to circle the island from the Qinglu Road bridgehead. Currently, the Zhuhai Opera House is being built on the north side of the island, and there are cars passing by on the north side of the long bridge to the island, which makes a lot of noise.
It is an island at the mouth of the Pearl River, east of Zhuhai city.
The island is not very large, and if you walk around it, you can complete the tour in just over an hour or two.
To reach this island, you don't need to take a boat, as there is a bridge connecting the island and the mainland.
In the morning there is the Zhuhai Opera House, which is very large and has a very distinctive shape, a shell shape.
The trails on the island are very well built, making them a great place to enjoy the sea.
The only thing is that the sea water is too yellow, but everything else is fine. It is a coastal city suitable for living.
There is a sea breeze, it is very comfortable. It is nice to ride a bike around the island and stop and go.
I didn't think of going there at first. I passed by there when I was going to the next place, so I went to take a look. The environment was okay. You can rent multi-person bicycles inside to go around the island for sightseeing. The scenery was pretty good. The weather was hot that day. There was a gust of sea breeze when I went in. It was a pity that I didn't stop to take some pictures of the scenery. I just rode around the island twice. There seemed to be a theater under construction next to it. I went to take a look after it was completed.
A place for a walk. It was very comfortable to bring my parents here around 5pm. I saw the opera house under construction and the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge.
It's quite good, suitable for island tours, or you can ride a bike around
As it is already the third day of the Lunar New Year, a large number of tourists have arrived, so the buses to the island are still quite congested.
Let’s go to the island. There are two big shells. These are actually two buildings. Inside is the Zhuhai Grand Theater, where various drama performances are held.
From here, you can see the distant mainland of Zhuhai. The scenery is great. Wandering around the island, feeling the sea breeze, and admiring the open sea under the sun is very pleasant. It seems that all the fatigue from the journey has been cured.
