【Guangxi Weizhou Island: The Heartbeat Code of a Volcanic Island and the Ultimate Encounter with Hakka Walled Houses】?

Can you imagine? Hidden deep in the South China Sea of China lies a volcanic island praised even by "China National Geographic"—Weizhou Island! When the sunrise at Five-Color Beach dyes the volcanic rocks golden red, I captured the primitive texture of the "marine erosion landform" at Crocodile Mountain. Even more amazing—by the century-old stove of the Hakka walled house, I grilled "Weizhou grilled oysters" with volcanic rock that was more stunning than Michelin!

🏝️ 【Volcanic Wonders: Unlocking Multiple Ways to Explore Weizhou Island】

✨ Must-visit Wonders:

- Dripping Water Danping Sunset (Set up your tripod at 6:00 PM to shoot the oil painting-like scene of "orange sunset and marine erosion cliff in the same frame")

📸 Photo Tips:
