The best viewing point of a stunning sunrise in Xiapu is at Huazhu Village （花竹）, located at the very east corner of the region. Like most of the villages in the district, it is also a sea laver farming site. The village is three sided surrounded by mountain, over looking Island Dayu-shan with groups of small scattering islands. Standing at a 200m high hilltop in dawn, watching how the sunlit clouds drifted across the blue sky, how the golden rays spilled over the tranquil water surface, was truly pleasurable.
The sun rises in a pool of crimson, spilling over the entire water surface with beams of golden light, turning the spreading laver sheets into golden foils.
The rays glint brightly in the silky smooth water.
The sun-lit sky and sea perfectly blended into each other.
