The city bordering Vietnam in Guangxi | Fangchenggang

There is a city in Guangxi, one of the two cities in China that are both coastal and bordering, which used to be under the jurisdiction of Zhanjiang, Guangdong, and borders Vietnam. It is closer to Mang Street in Vietnam than to the capital of Guangxi, Nanning. This city is called Fangchenggang, located in the south of Guangxi, is a coastal city, borders Vietnam, and is the only city in China connected to the ASEAN sea, land and river. Fangchenggang was part of the Baiyue land in the pre-Qin period, under the jurisdiction of Xiangjun during the Qin Dynasty, belonged to the Nanyue Kingdom in the early Western Han Dynasty, belonged to the Wu Kingdom during the Three Kingdoms period, and was named Fangcheng in the fifth year of Kaibao in the Northern Song Dynasty because the local people built a city with wood and soil to defend against foreign invasions. Fangchenggang City is named after the port, built by the port, first the port and then the city. In 1959, Dongxing County was once under the jurisdiction of Zhanjiang, Guangdong, and Fangchenggang City was established in 1993. Fangchenggang City has jurisdiction over Gangkou District, Fangcheng District, Shangsi County, and Dongxing City. There are mountains, seas, hills, and tidal flats in the territory, with many scenic spots, making it a very suitable city for tourism. The most famous scenic spot should be Dongxing Guomen Tourist Area, which borders Vietnam and can go to Vietnam from the land port, integrating tourism, sightseeing and shopping. Dongxing Guomen was built in the Ming Dynasty and has a history of more than 400 years. It is one of the busiest ports in China. Every day, countless Vietnamese come to Guangxi to do business, and countless Chinese go to Vietnam for sightseeing. Vietnamese can be seen everywhere on the street, and Vietnamese goods can be seen everywhere in shops. In addition to the Dongxing port, there are also attractions such as the No. 5 Boundary Monument of the Qing Dynasty, Ho Chi Minh Pavilion, China-Vietnam Friendship Bridge, and China-Vietnam People's Friendship Park. In addition to the Guomen Tourist Area, the Wanda Mountain Buto Hot Spring is also a very famous scenic spot in Fangchenggang. This place is surrounded by mountains on three sides and is located in a secluded valley. The spring water gushes out from the rock crevices, contains a variety of trace elements, and meets the standards of medical hot springs. Many locals and people from surrounding areas come here to soak in the hot springs. Here, a hot spring is like the Huanglong Scenic Area in Sichuan, the Baishui Village in Yunnan, and the Cotton Castle in Turkey. The spring water flows from the mountain to the mountain, forming a multi-level waterfall-like landscape, with blue and white interlaced, very beautiful. In addition to the Dongxing port, Fangchenggang has another place connected to Vietnam, which is the Beilun River source scenic area in Fangchenggang, which can be described as connected to the mountains and rivers of Vietnam, separated by the Beilun River. There are large areas of mangroves growing in the river, and the opposite bank of the river is Vietnam. There is also a boundary monument from the Qing Dynasty here. Fangchenggang not only has Wanda Mountain, but also the sea. The bay here is also very beautiful. The more famous ones are Jing Island and West Bay. Jing Island has three islands, namely Wutou Island, Wanwei Island, and Shanxin Island. This is the settlement of one of China's 56 ethnic groups, the Jing ethnic group, so it is also called the Jing Three Islands. Surrounding the Jing Three Islands is a 13-kilometer-long beach. The sand is fine and golden, known as the 'Golden Beach'. Here you can see the ocean, beach, forest and crane group at the same time, and the tourism resources are quite unique. The West Bay is a bay in the urban area of Fangchenggang. There are many high-rise buildings around, the sea water is clear and the beach is soft, and the pier is next to it, which is a rare urban beach. Fangchenggang not only has many tourist attractions, but also a lot of seafood, which is fresh and cheap, and you must try it when you come here. If friends in the north want to find a place to live, they don't necessarily have to go to Hainan. Guangxi is also very good, such as Fangchenggang. The winter temperature is between 19-25°, which is not cold or hot and very comfortable. Moreover, there are not many people here, the housing prices are cheap and the consumption is not high, which is very suitable for living and retirement.
