Stunning Hidden Gem! A Must-See for Xinjiang Residents: The Magical "Zelda" Adventure on Fujian's Sijiao Islands

From the vast deserts of Xinjiang to the Sijiao Islands in Fujian, the scenery shifts dramatically! This secluded island in Ningde's Xiapu feels like a real-life "Legend of Zelda." East Sijiao Island boasts wild and majestic cliffside ocean views, North Sijiao Island offers a tranquil and rustic fishing village vibe, Red Sijiao Island features alien-like rock formations, and South Sijiao Island's crystal-clear "glass sea" is perfect for a refreshing stroll on its pebble beaches. A 1.5-hour boat ride is all it takes to reach this uncommercialized paradise—no complicated visas required. Bring a drone to capture the breathtaking 360-degree ocean views, wear non-slip shoes for exploring rocky areas, and visit during sunny summer days to witness the "explosively blue" waters! The island's simple yet romantic homestays let you sleep to the sound of waves and wake up to seagulls in the morning. This "island-hopping dream" from Xinjiang is worth every penny! 💡**Tips**: Round-trip boat tickets cost 200 RMB. Be prepared for windy and cloudy days, pack extra batteries and sunscreen, and don't miss out—it's a once-a-year opportunity!
