Liujingtan Cliffs
六井潭
A sea-eroded cliff scenic area at the eastern tip of Sijiao, where reefs and cliffs meet crashing waves. Considered Shengsi's best spot for watching sunrise and photographing the sea cliffs.
Liujingtan lies at the easternmost tip of Sijiao and takes its name from six ‘wells’ said to lie in sea-eroded caves below the cliffs. Paths and viewing platforms follow the coastline, offering close views of the eroded cliffs, reefs, and waves breaking on the shore, with distant views of the Huanglong Islands. On clear days, the sunrise here is spectacular. A visit takes about 1–1.5 hours, and admission follows the official notice. Getting there: a taxi from Caiyuan Town takes about 20 minutes, and island buses reach nearby areas. Do not go down to the reefs to take photos when winds and waves are strong.
Opening hours
