Dangan Liedao, Island group in South China Sea, Guangdong, China.
Dangan Liedao is an island group within the Wanshan Archipelago in the South China Sea, consisting of several distinct landmasses. The terrain features rocky hills and natural coves along the coastline.
The islands were originally part of an older administrative region until they were integrated into a new jurisdiction during the mid-20th century. This reorganization reflected broader changes in how the region was administratively divided.
The small community here relies on fishing traditions passed down through generations, shaping daily life on the islands. This connection to the sea defines how people work and interact with their surroundings.
The islands are accessible by ferry from Zhuhai, with regular services connecting to the group. Visiting during the drier season offers more stable conditions for travel and exploration.
The waters surrounding these islands support specialized marine ecosystems that attract scientific study in the region. This ecological distinction makes the area noteworthy for nature observers.
