Statue of Caibogong

Caibo Gong statue is a landmark on Dongji Island. It is on a small slope and seems to be more than 30 meters away. The red lighthouse is nearby, but you have to walk down some steps.

Visitors to Dongji Island will surely notice that there is a huge stone carving holding torches on the top of the mountain on the east side of Miaozi Lake Island, and will be curious: Who is he? Why is he here? He is the father of Caibo, real name Chen Caifu. More than 200 years ago, a day, Hui'an fisherman Chen Caifu and several fishermen's partners shook a small chopping board to fish here, unexpectedly encountered a violent storm, suddenly the boat overturned. Other fishermen were buried on the seabed, only Chen Caifu, with a good water quality, swam alone to the Miaozi Lake Island in the east pole. He saw that the Miaozi Lake harbor could avoid the waves, so he lived on this island and lived by picking up conch. Whenever a storm or fog, he set fires on the mountain and guides passing fishing boats to shelter from the wind. This will continue until he can no longer support himself and die. After a while, the fishermen saw that the fire on the mountain did not guide them, thinking that the Bodhisattva was not showing, so the bold people went to the island to see. As a result, Chen Caifu's body was found, so they understood that the Bodhisattva was him! Later, he built the Caibogong Temple in memory of him. In 2002, the Dongji Islanders created a tall statue of Caibogong on the volcano. He was holding a torch and his eyes were shining. It seemed that he was still guiding the way for the vast number of fishermen's friends to ensure that fishermen's friends came and went safely.

The statue of Caibogong, which is definitely the first landmark on the island, can be seen by boat from the sea. The statue of Chaibogong on Dongji Island, which is called by Han in China and South Korea in the movie "The Later Meeting", is this eastern free male god, who is said to be a fisherman in Fujian. Since he drifted to the "East Polar Island" after the fishing boat overturned, he has since held a torch to point the direction of the sea boat, so the future generations have molded this huge statue for its dedication. Obviously a big torch, some girls must say it is ice cream, maybe this is the girl's heart.

Caibogong is known as the free male god of Dongji Island, and his body is spread by the legend of "Qinghui Temple Lake, Bodhisattva wearing cages". Caibogong was originally named Chen Caifu, Fujian Hui'an people, and early Fujian fishermen wore vests and cages, that is, the costume on the statue. More than two hundred years ago, a fishing boat hit a reef near Dongji Island, and the boat was destroyed. Only fisherman Chen Caifu survived by swimming to Miaozi Lake with good water. Chen Caifu knew that Miaozihu Island could shelter the wind and rain, and settled on the island, picking up conch and growing vegetables for a living. In order to give directions to other fishermen, every time he went up the mountain to set fire to the boats to navigate, so that the boats could go to Miaozi Lake to avoid danger. The fishermen on the boat thought it was Bodhisattva. Later, Chen Caifu's physical condition became worse. When he went up the mountain again in the rainy night after half a year, he was unable to support his physical strength and died from exhaustion. After many days, the fishermen found that there was no longer a fire guide on the top of the mountain, thinking that the Bodhisattva was not showing spirit, and some fishermen boldly went up the mountain to check. When the fishermen found Chen Caifu's body, they understood what happened to the navigation of the fire light on the sea. Later, in order to commemorate Chen Caifu, the fishermen built a statue of the temple to worship him and named the mountain "Putting the volcano". This is also the origin of the legend of "Qinghui Temple Lake, Bodhisattva wearing panties". Caibo Gong statue is about 400 meters away from the net red lighthouse and needs to walk down the mountain. Many tourists will stop at this station a lot, and then wait for the sightseeing bus to come back to the pier or the hotel. Tip: Caibogong statue is at the highest point of the mountain, there is a garden under the statue, and the garden wall is also painted to record the legend of Caibogong, so that tourists can better understand his story.
