The Xiandieyan Scenic Area is located in Dongtou District, Zhejiang Province, 2.7 kilometers away from the urban area, with an area of about 1.71 square kilometers. It includes more than 30 scenic spots of various sizes, including the Xiandieyan Rock Scenic Area, Nanpaotai Mountain Shooting Range, and Dashaao Beach.
The massive rocks of Xiandieyan, carved out by wear and tear, now stand majestically, a breathtaking sight. Legend has it that the perilous rocks were built by immortals, and a couplet on the cliff reads: "The immortals departed on cranes, leaving the work of heaven on earth."
Wenzhou has a mid-subtropical monsoon climate zone, with significant alternation between winter and summer monsoons, moderate temperatures, distinct four seasons, and abundant rainfall.
All seasons are suitable for visiting, but spring and autumn are the best.
The beaches, reefs and huge rocks of Xiandieyan are seamlessly integrated. Huge natural blocks are piled up to form a mountain, and there are many unique rocks such as the Immortal Stone, Guanyin Worship, the Twelve Chinese Zodiac Signs, and the Fairy Carrying the Golden Child, standing tall in the sea.
The Xiandieyan Scenic Area is a great place for listening to the waves, watching the sea, surfing, admiring rocks and bathing on the beach.
