Wenchang Pagoda

Beihai 3

  


Beihai is well known for its bright and shiny pearls. But do you know how they are made? The pearls are made by the using this tool to open the shell, cutting a slit, and inserting a foreign particle into the shell. Over time, the shell will make secretions around the particle and in three years, a pearl will be formed.

China tops the world in the annual output of pearls, which now surpasses 1,200 tons each year. The pearls here are called "South Pearls," the king of them all.

In the museum, you can see a display of oysters that have been deliberately induced to produce pearls by introducing an irritant. In nature, it's very rare to see pearls, but behold the power of modern technology.

On the second floor of the museum is the largest pearl processing export base in Guangxi. Selection based on 4 characteristics: the pearl's size, brightness, color, and flawlessness. After selecting the best pearls, they make necklaces and accessories.

Underwater World is another great place to take a look at the world beneath the ocean.




It is a tourist attraction known for its many performances, including girls diving in six-meter water tank. You can also catch a glimpse of these girls doing some crazy things¡ªyes, even feeding sharks. There they also play with FeiFei, a 300 year old turtle which is the biggest sea turtle in China. The show is around 20 minutes and is performed several times daily. That's all folks. Bye!

In the museum, there's a well-known glass tunnel, where you can feel submerged in the underwater world, surrounded by fish, rays, and sharks. Big, small, pretty, and you can decide for yourself

But fish are no fun to play with, so I found my friend Qiqi instead. Qiqi is a celebrity¡­ who might give you a kiss. Yes, yes, the aim wasn't too good on that one. I was kissed¡­ again¡­ and again¡­ and again!

Hey, I want to kiss the host, too! Mom, I'm on television. How come he gets all the attention? Oh geez, let's watch something else.





Welcome to Silver Beach, Beihai's number one tourist location. It's properly named so for the fine, white sand. It's a million dollar view.
