Experience the panoramic view of a thousand islands and the enchanting mists of Qingshan; enjoy the golden beaches spanning ten miles and embrace the cliffs of the islands. Dashan National Park in Zhujiajian is the core scenic area of Putuoshan National Key Scenic Area and a National AAAA-level scenic spot. Covering an area of ten square kilometers with over 30 kilometers of coastline and an 18-kilometer circular island tourist road, the park boasts a collection of high-quality resources for modern coastal leisure and vacation, including sunshine, waves, beaches, reefs, cliffs, fishing villages, and a thousand-island seascape, along with the unique and scarce elements characteristic of national parks.


Known for its distinctive ‘strange mountains, peculiar rocks, and beautiful beaches’, Dashan National Park stands out for its natural beauty. Qiansha Beach, also known as Qianbu Sand, stretches about 1200 meters long and 170 meters wide, lying between Muling Mountain and Laitou Mountain like a pole balancing two green mountains, with treacherous reefs and crashing waves on both the north and south sides.


Golden sands spread along the azure sea, and walking on them feels like treading on a golden carpet. Gazing at distant sails, cloud reflections, and the interplay of light and sky is truly refreshing.


Four Seasons Flower Sea covers more than four hundred acres, comprising the main flower area, water feature area, lawn leisure area, and supporting service area. The area is equipped with boating, shouting fountains, children’s playgrounds, and slides for entertainment, as well as outdoor activities such as barbecues, bonfires, and camping, allowing visitors to enjoy, play, and rest.

Lisha Beach, also known as ‘West Lotus Pond Great Beach’, is named after the West Lotus Pond built by Putuoshan monks. The beach is about 800 meters long and 170 meters wide, shaped like a crescent moon with a gentle slope and golden sand. When the east wind blows, the sand rises like mist, swirling above the beach, creating a spectacular sight. As a seaside bathing spot, Lisha has clear water and fine sand. Recreational activities such as floating bridges, sailing, and motorboats combine motion and tranquility, offering endless fun. Supporting facilities like showers and storage services ensure a worry-free experience. [Note: This is an outdoor bathing spot, affected by weather factors, not open all year round, please inquire before entering.]


Lisha Ecological Park, surrounding Lisha and covering over 100 acres, has a history of thousands of years. The tree canopies stretch towards the direction away from the sea, resembling sails, forming a unique landscape of ‘ancient sands becoming forests, green trees climbing vines’. The excellent ecological environment here is known as a ‘natural oxygen bar’. You can experience entertainment projects such as ‘jungle bumper cars’, ‘log climbing’, and ‘bamboo mazes’, or rest on swings and hammocks, feeling the omnipresent negative oxygen ions.


Qingsa Beach, about 500 meters long and 150 meters wide, faces the east sea and is backed by Dashan. The lush mountain shadows tint the ocean, beach, and village here in a shade of green, hence the name.
Due to the influence of the terrain, when the east wind rises, the surging waves continuously crash into the sand beaches, and the sprayed mist resembles a light gauze and feather robe, dancing on the beach, thus forming the spectacle known as ‘Qingsha Misty Waves’.


Niutou Mountain, located on the eastern side of Daqing Mountain, is named for its shape that resembles a cow’s head reaching out to the sea to drink water. It is the cape that divides the north and south of the scenic area, thus forming a natural panoramic viewing point. Standing on Niutou Mountain, one can clearly see the ‘Ten Miles of Golden Sand and Five Sands in a Row’ to the north, and to the south, the endless sea to the east, which is the international deep-water shipping channel known as the ‘Maritime Silk Road’.


Maotiao, a natural cape protruding from the south ridge of Daqing Mountain into the sea, has many rugged rocks on the cliff edge, making it an ideal spot for sea viewing and reef appreciation. Due to the uneven terrain, one must jump while walking, resembling a cat’s jump, hence the name. The narrow and elongated terrain of Maotiao has become the forefront where the East China Sea waves crash into the coast, and it is also the main place where the magical Qingshan Drunken Mist rises, thus it has a more poetic name, ‘Cape Misty Waves’.


Spray Cave, a masterpiece of nature, seems to have been carved into the cliff by a playful creator. When the tide hits, it calmly gathers and then sharply sprays out, reaching up to several meters high. The natural fountain is a rare sight, and the formation of the spray spectacle depends on the size of the waves and the height of the tide. Encountering the spectacle of Spray Cave may bring good luck for the day.


Qingshan Peak, the main peak of Daqing Mountain, stands at an elevation of 378.6 meters. In the 1950s, Daqing Mountain, as the forefront of the East China Sea, was garrisoned by island defense forces. Military facilities such as barracks, tunnels, and garages still remain on Qingshan Peak. The summit offers an expansive view, making it a viewing point for the thousand-island seascape, looking east towards Putuo and Dongji Islands; south to Dongting Mountain Lighthouse and Yang’an Fishing Grounds; west to Taohua Island and the main passage to the East China Sea Fishing Grounds, Wushamen Waterway; and north to the ‘Chinese Fishing Capital’ Shenjiamen Fishing Port. Standing on the summit, facing the sea and the wind, one’s heart and mind become open and expansive.


Shaojiwan Fishing Village, located at the foot of the western slope of Daqing Mountain, facing the Wushamen Waterway that leads to and from Yang’an Fishing Grounds, is surrounded by mountains on three sides with a flat interior, about 330 meters wide from north to south and 1500 meters deep. Named after the shape that resembles a winnowing basket used by fishermen to wash rice, Shaojiwan is the home of seaside dwellers on Zhujiajian Island. Ancient inhabitants sailed and fished here, gradually forming the first natural fishing village on Zhujiajian. Shaojiwan is currently one of the well-preserved original ecological fishing villages along the coast of Eastern Zhejiang.
