Uncle Xiaoming visits a seaside park.
Gangmenling Park is located in Li'an Town, Lingshui Li Autonomous County, Hainan Province, and is named after the port of Li'an. The park has charming natural scenery, especially the viewing platform on the top of the mountain, which overlooks the beautiful scenery of the inner harbor and the outer sea, including the full view of Lingshui Bay. The sea is blue or mint green. In addition, the waves in the park are also very spectacular, and the waves hit the shore, bringing a shocking visual experience to tourists.
There is also a temple of 108 brothers on the sea under the ridge in the park. This is a temple that blesses fishermen to go out to sea safely. The incense is constant, adding a touch of humanity to the park. Climbing to the top of the ridge, looking far away, the east is the sea coordinate Shuangfan Stone, and the southwest is the steep and narrow Lingshui Corner, with a high sky and a wide sea, vast and boundless.
Gangmenling Park is a small and popular scenic spot open 24 hours a year, suitable for tourists of all ages to visit. Here you can not only enjoy the beautiful scenery of the mountains and the sea, but also enjoy the comfort brought by the sun and the sea breeze. The park is equipped with a wooden plank road for tourists to climb the mountain. It takes about ten minutes to climb from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain.

Jumping on the bandwagon, I've reached the summit!
I don't know why, but hiking has become an indispensable part of my weekly routine. If I don't hike, I feel uncomfortable. I'm constantly discovering all kinds of mountains, and I have a particular fondness for wild ones. Although hiking can be exhausting, the process is very relaxing, and the moment of reaching the summit makes everything worthwhile. The view is breathtaking, and there's a feeling of being above all other mountains.
This time, I climbed the Ling Shui Gang Men Ridge.
🌟Highlights:
①You can see the beautiful sea from the top of the mountain
②Rows of Khasya pines, perfect for taking photos
③Below the park, there's a spot where fishing boats dock, which is very beautiful for taking pictures, and the water is as clear as that at Fenjiezhou Island. Encountering the tide going out reveals another stunning view.
④The mountain is lush with vegetation and cool, with seats and pavilions at every stage for resting.
⑤Open access with no admission fee

It is recommended to drive there, as the bus service is infrequent. If you're staying in the county town, it's only 16 kilometers away via the Ring Island Tourist Road, and you can reach it by electric bike or cycling.
🛏【Hotel Strategy】
For accommodation, you can choose a hotel near Haiyun Square in the center of the county town.

Do not stay near Gang Men Ridge, as there are no shops or villages nearby.
🍽【Dining Strategy】
