There are a few things you should look out for. The mountains and plains are full of vines and creepers. The roofs, walls, houses and gravel roads are all infested with green. It is surrounded by mountains on three sides and faces the sea on the other. At the bottom of the village is a small sandy beach with a safe haven, on which remain traces of the fishing trade.

Next to the village is the Precipice of the East Cliff that stretches into the East China Sea, overlooking the mussel growing areas and fishing boats on the sea.

Shengshan Island is the first occupied island in China's furthermost east that basks in the first rays of sunrise. The East Cliff is famous for its steep walls and rare rocks.
