Chuanzhou Island
Chuanzhou Island
Chuanzhou Island earned the nickname "Chuanzhu Island" (Pearl-Piercing Island) because it once had a cave resembling a gate in the middle of the island, which allowed for navigation. Legend has it that local ancestors, whether setting out to sea for fishing or seeking livelihoods elsewhere, would always stop at this island. They would rest under the stone gate, offer incense, and worship the deities before continuing their journey. This practice truly embodies the ancient saying, "crossing the island and the sea." Nowadays, boats can no longer enter the island, but the name "Chuanzhou Island" still lives on.
