Situated by the Beibu Gulf in Dongxing, Fangchenggang, Jing Island Scenic Area consists of three islets, known as the Jing Ethnic Three Islands. It is the only permanent settlement of the Jing people, China’s unique marine ethnic minority, facing Vietnam across the sea. The core attraction is the stunning Golden Beach, featuring miles of fine golden sand, calm waves and clear seawater, ideal for enjoying splendid coastal sunsets.
Here visitors can encounter distinctive Jing folk culture. Watch fishermen perform the traditional stilt fishing, a rare ancient fishing technique. You may also appreciate the one-stringed fiddle, a national intangible cultural heritage. The Jing Museum and Ha Pavilion record the ethnic group’s maritime history and customs. During the grand Ha Festival, locals hold rituals, sing folk songs and stage traditional dances.
Lush coastal woods, quiet fishing villages and authentic seafood create a relaxing atmosphere. Far away from crowded tourist hubs, it perfectly combines coastal scenery, borderland charm and rare ethnic culture. If you want to explore diverse frontier landscapes of Guangxi, Jing Island is a worthwhile stop on your journey.
