Dongshan County

Fujian's second-largest island, with fine, clean beaches and bays, and the Wind-Moved Rock and Guandi Temple as signature sights.

Dongshan County is centered on Dongshan Island, on the southern coast of Zhangzhou, Fujian, and is Fujian's second-largest island. The island has many bays, and beaches such as Maluan Bay, Jinluan Bay and Nanmen Bay are clean with clear water, great for relaxing holidays and seafood. The Wind-Moved Rock in Tongling ancient town and the Dongshan Guandi Temple are the island's signature sights. Summer and autumn are good for swimming, while winter has fewer visitors and feels more peaceful. You can drive from Xiamen or Zhangzhou via expressway, or take a bus over the sea-crossing bridge onto the island.
