Unlocking the First Port of the Maritime Silk Road: Ancient Charms and New Looks, a Complete Guide to the Coastal Wonderland

Beihai, the first port of the Maritime Silk Road, is truly a great place where one will linger! Here, you can not only feel the rich historical and cultural atmosphere, but also participate in various exciting and special activities. The scenic area's large-scale panoramic interactive performance "Song of Water and Fire" is unique. When night fell and the performance began, it was as if we had traveled back to the Han Dynasty. Merchant ships from various countries dock at the departure pier, and actors perform various aspects of life in the port next to tourists, vividly showing the prosperity of the port with boats coming and going and merchants gathering. People are immersed in it and deeply appreciate the unique charm of the Maritime Silk Road culture. The large-scale sea fireworks show designed by the Winter Olympics director team is even more stunning. The colorful fireworks bloomed in the night sky, contrasting with the ancient port, forming a dreamlike picture. In addition, there is a thousand-year-old iron flower performance, with golden flowers splashing everywhere, like bright meteors across the sky, complementing the fireworks, pushing the atmosphere of the whole night to a climax. In addition to these, the activities at Night Wave at 9:30 are also very interesting. At 21:30, there will be a grand performance of thousands of ships leaving the port, and the subsequent grand fireworks show at sea is not to be missed. After the fireworks are over, you can also dance the bamboo pole dance with foreign friends in front of the Shougang Castle and participate in the priest’s bonfire dance. At 23:00 in the evening, all the actors toured the fishing village and held an exotic bonfire party on the beach. Everyone could release their enthusiasm and enjoy this happy time together. Daytime activities are equally varied. You can stroll on the mangrove pier and enjoy the natural ecological beauty; you can also take a boat for sea sightseeing, visit the islands, and experience the fun of digging snails at sea; you can also put on Hanfu and check in at the Han-style harbor-style buildings to experience a different cultural style. In short, the special activities of Beihai, the first port of the Maritime Silk Road, brought tourists an audio-visual feast and unique cultural experience, which made people linger. It is highly recommended to all tourists. I believe you will have an unforgettable and wonderful time here!
