"No one wants to see such a beautiful island disappear, so we are trying to leave the mark of Sitan." Zhao Shengli, Minister of Armed Forces in charge of the daily work of the government of Potou Town, Jiyuan City, said: "We finally decided on a plan: the construction of artificial islands." Experts believe that it is technically feasible to build an artificial island in Xitan, which is not only a reasonable continuation of the natural wonders of "the first beach of the Yellow River in Wan Li", but more importantly, through island building, a unique landscape can be formed on the water surface of 23 square kilometers around Xitan, becoming the biggest highlight of Xixia Lake tourism resources.
"One lake with blue waves and rosy clouds, half city and half lake" is a true portrayal of the first island of the Yellow River. All along, the first island of the Yellow River has been closely focused on the development idea of "using water resources, creating water landscape, highlighting water culture and seeking water economy", insisting on island planning with advanced development concepts, building with high standards, carving by means of artistic creation, and accelerating the pace of construction in an all-round way, which has promoted the vigorous development of the construction of the first island of the Yellow River, and a vibrant and unique hydrophilic paradise is gradually taking shape.
According to the plan, the "First Island of the Yellow River" will make full use of the natural landscape, inherit the historical context and display modern civilization. According to the principle of combining point, line and surface, we will gradually form a "one heart, two axes and five belts" layout system centered on Xitan Island, and make every effort to build public infrastructure such as green spaces, squares, docks and gardens. At the same time, the pastoral scenery is carefully created, which reflects each other with Potou Town and Xixiayuan Reservoir.
As a key tourism project in the Twelfth Five-Year Plan of Jiyuan City, "The First Island of the Yellow River" will be built into a water park with the largest scale, the most amusement equipment and the most advanced facilities in the Central Plains. There is a drift of nearly 1000 meters on the island, and the drift of more than 1 hour makes you feel different feelings such as children's paradise, haunted house, sea, blue sky, white clouds and forest. More than 3,000 square meters of surfing pool can be used by more than 2,000 people at the same time; Children's water park provides a safe, comfortable and hydrophilic paradise for children; There is also the largest loudspeaker in the Central Plains on the island, more than 20 meters high, which is a paradise for screaming and madness. There are more than 5,000 square meters of beaches in the south of the island, which is the closest "sea" to the Central Plains.
In order to promote the development of tourism in the first island of the Yellow River and its surrounding areas, it is planned to build a comprehensive tourism base with the first island of the Yellow River as the center and animation as the theme, covering the whole town of Potou in the next three years. As the current development focus, the first island of the Yellow River will be built into a large-scale water park integrating book of songs culture, animation culture, water entertainment and leisure vacation.
In the later period, a wedding shooting garden, a romantic inn, a love square, a waterscape restaurant, a water leisure and sightseeing park and an underwater world will be built one after another. It is planned to become a love island featuring marriage and love culture, and the first romantic island in the Central Plains to relax, care for emotions and cultivate love.
