With Bohai on the north and Yellow River on the south, formed from the deposit mud filled up by ancient Yellow River, the Yellow River Island covers an area of more than 360,000 mu and once was the sea entrance of the nine rivers which were dredged by Da Yu (an ancient saint). There is also a legend of it. Early in 210 B.C., being ordered by the fist emperor of Qin Dynasty, Xu Fu set off from the island, together with ¡°thousand virgin men and women¡± and many artisans taking along seeds of cereals with them, and launched out to the east to find a kind of remedy called ¡°elixir¡±. Then because the island is lying on hinterland of Yellow River delta and full of historical culture flavour, so it was called ¡°Yellow River Island¡±.
Currently, on Yellow River Island, we plans to build a series of functional areas of ¡°one mountain, two rivers, tree villages, four gardens, five large health reserving sections, six industries, seven bases, eight fields and nine centers¡±.
