Lingao Corner is worth your visit

Lingao Corner Strolling on the beach, looking up, the Monument of Blood stands tall against the backdrop of scattered coconut trees, appearing even more towering and grand. Footprints are smoothed over, rocks are worn round, the sound of gunfire and blood from that evening are all mixed together, fading with the tide. With the sea at your back, holding rifles and red flags high, hands symbolizing the unity of the military and civilians are tightly clasped together. The Hainan Liberation Monument - the Monument of Blood - stands on the coast, tall and majestic. In 1950, the soldiers of the People's Liberation Army, driving wooden boats, broke through the naval blockade and landed on the land of Hainan Island, creating the 'miracle of wooden boats defeating warships'. Since then, Lingao Corner has been marked with a layer of red. The sea is clear, the sand is white, the sky is high and the clouds are light, and the scenery of Lingao Corner is as refreshing to the mind and spirit as it was decades ago. The lighthouse rises from the ground, watching over a corner of the island, and gazes at the monument to the sea crossing operation from afar. Standing in front of the monument, fingers brushing over the engraved names, it's as if you're transported back to the day when the sound of gunfire and shouts echoed across the beach. It was the fearless charges of young men in their prime that brought about today's peace. That moment, that scene, is reflected in the sea breeze of Lingao Corner, sleeping in the waves. The scenery is pleasant, the years are peaceful, all because of the past hardships and the heavy burdens carried forward. Each name, each story, is worth telling; every strand of red mark is worth remembering. Lingao Corner, located at the northern end of Lingao County in Hainan, faces the Beibu Gulf to the north, across the sea from the Leizhou Peninsula, situated between Haikou City and the Yangpu Economic Development Zone, boasts unique natural scenery and cultural landscapes, and is one of the main landing points of the Hainan Island crossing operation during the liberation.
