Located on the Leizhou Peninsula in the southwest of Guangdong province, Zhanjiang thrives on its intimate relationship with the sea.

Embraced by the South China Sea, this coastal gem not only enjoys a bountiful harvest of fish but also plays host to a unique natural spectacle known as the "snowfields" made of salt. With the ebb and flow of the tides, crystalline seawater cascades over the sun-kissed sandy shores, transforming the landscape into a mesmerizing salt field on the peninsula.

For generations, the inhabitants of this region have sustained themselves by harvesting sea salt through the ancient practice of sun-drying, a rich tradition that endures to this very day.
