Dengloujiao is the lighthouse at the southern tip of China’s mainland. It was built in the 16th year of Guangxu (1890). It is located in Xuwen County, Zhanjiang City. It faces Hainan Island from afar. It is a navigational light for the Qiongzhou Strait, the South China Sea Islands and the Beibu Gulf. It is also a landmark at the southernmost point of China’s mainland. Imperialist powers such as France, Britain and Russia built houses here. Now there are still western-style houses around the lighthouse, attracting many tourists to come for sightseeing. Dengloujiao is famous not only as a historical site. The scenery seen from afar on the tower is full of charm. The misty waters are vast and the sky is wide. Looking around, there are all lush and vibrant tropical plants. Coconut trees, casuarina trees, acacia trees, cacti, shrubs, seaweed flowers, mangroves and others sway with the wind. This is a unique scenery that can only be enjoyed at Dengloujiao. At sunrise and sunset, a day quietly passes when standing on the lighthouse. When lucky, you can also see the peculiar ‘successive waves’, one after another, rolling in from afar in Hainan. It is extremely spectacular. At the same time, there is a large and complete coral reef group in the sea area around Dengloujiao with rich varieties and colorful colors. Because coral reefs have the effect of purifying seawater, the clean sea exudes infinite charm. Open all year round and all day. The specific business status is subject to the opening situation on that day.
