The birthplace of Xiamen Port, Shapowei is a centuries-old natural cove and a living museum of Minnan marine culture. Once home to fishing boats and the seafaring Dan people’s way of life, it carries Xiamen’s time-honored maritime roots. Today, old fishing boats sit side by side with trendy coastal art, while Xiamen's traditional arcades look out towards the blue sea. Protecting this harbor keeps the city’s ocean story alive. #Shapowei#SustainableOcean#WorldOceanWeekInXiamen#ChinaTravel
