China's First Artificial Island, Costing $200 Million to Build, Dubbed China's 'Maldives'

When it comes to tourism, China has many famous attractions, which can be divided into mountain landscapes, ancient town scenery, and village scenery. However, today the editor wants to introduce a place that is even more beautiful than the Maldives. This attraction is also a favorite photography spot for girls, that is, China's first artificial island.

This place is in the Nansha Islands of the South China Sea, Meiji Island, which is an elliptical coral reef ring. The overall structure is made of coral, and it is a large-scale natural shelter. As you can see in the picture, Meiji Island's shape is heart-shaped, with a large expanse of ocean beside it. Doesn't it look like the ocean heart that Rose wore in the movie 'Titanic'? And Meiji Island is also known as China's 'Ocean Heart'.

However, Meiji Island is not yet fully completed, but this does not affect the beauty of Meiji Island. People still come to this heart-shaped coral ring to travel every year. Surrounding it are azure waters and clouds in the sky reflecting the sea. What a beautiful scenery! But it has paid a very high price behind the beautiful scenery. The construction of Meiji Island cost 200 million US dollars, and the total area reached 56.6 square kilometers. Therefore, Meiji Island is also known as China's 'Maldives'.
