Wanning Coconut Island

　　Located in Paixi Village, Yelin Township, Lingshui, at the mouth of the Lingshui River, just 5 kilometers from the county town, covering a total area of approximately 1 square kilometer. The Lingshui River resembles a silvery ribbon, encircling Coconut Island before gently flowing into the sea. The island is embraced by crystal-clear waters and adorned with swaying coconut groves. To reach the island, one must take a boat—gliding past majestic coconut trees and listening to the waves play a soul-cleansing melody, it feels like stepping into a paradise or a fairyland on the sea. From the higher points on the island, looking southward, you can see the Twin Maidens Rocks standing tall in the sea, braving the wind and waves, leaning close to each other. Looking down closer to shore, the green coconuts and blue waters reflect each other, while fishing boats and seagulls playfully interact. Less than a hundred meters from the island lies an ancient temple, originally built during the Guangxu era, which remains bustling with incense and activity all year round, adding an even more mystical charm to Coconut Island.
