Xiaodeng Island, also known as Xiaodeng, or Xiaodengbao in ancient times, is a bedrock island located in the southern part of Xiang'an, Xiamen Bay. It covers an area of approximately 0.9671 square kilometers and has an altitude of 28 meters. As of 2008, the population of the island was about 3,000 people. The island was originally located in Kinmen County, Fuchien Province, Republic of China (ROC). After being occupied by the Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA), it was included in Dadeng Subdistrict, Xiang'an District, Xiamen, Fujian Province, People's Republic of China. There is currently a Xiaodeng Neighborhood Committee, which governs two natural villages, Qianbao and Houbao. However, the ROC considers this island to be a peripheral island of its Kinmen County, just as it considered itself in charge of the villages.[1][2]: 391  The island has complete facilities, with a bridge leading to Dadeng Island and mainland China. However, due to the construction of Xiamen Xiang'an International Airport, the overall facilities on the island will be demolished and relocated.[3]: 348 [4][5]

Xiaodeng Island is rich in seafood, with specialties such as Xiaodeng seaweed and Xiaodeng oysters. There are multiple tourist attractions on the island, and the tourism industry is thriving.[3]: 354  Xiaodeng has a long history,[6] starting with the Tang dynasty founded by Hong Dao, the founder of the Hong clan in Xiaodeng.[7] Qiu Kui, a Neo-Confucianism scholar of the Song and Yuan dynasties, was born on the island and later lived there in seclusion; it is also said that the last emperor of the Song Dynasty, Zhao Bing, lived on the island when he fled south.[8] Xiaodeng Island also experienced the artillery battle of "August 23" during the shelling of Kinmen, and is known as the "Three Heroic Islands" together with Dadeng Island and Jiaoyu Island.[9]

History[edit]

Hong Dao, the ancestor of the Hong Clan of Xiaodeng,[3]: 349  lived in seclusion on Xiaodeng Island in 1140 and created the name of Dadeng Mountain, which is interpreted as "Dadeng is to fight to be straight up without any hesitation of strategy and foot; the mountain is to be the real accumulation of Taojun and creation", from which the name of Xiaodeng Island comes.[7]

During the Song dynasty, it was rumored that the last emperor, Zhao Bing, lived on Xiaodeng Island during his escape. Due to the delicious taste of the local ostreidae and the fact that they have two more gills than the ordinary oysters, he gave them the name "July Pearl Oysters".[3]: 351 [10]: 945 

When the Wokou invaded during the Ming Dynasty, they plundered and killed the residents of Xiaodeng Island in the second year of Hongwu (1369) and the twenty-fifth year of Jiajing (1546).[10]: 8 

During the Second Sino-Japanese War, Xiaodeng Island was bombed and shelled by the Imperial Japanese Armed Forces many times. It often dispatched steamboats to strafe fishermen and villages. In 1938, a 45-member anti-Japanese self-defense group was organized in Xiaodeng Island, and on February 22, 1940, Japanese planes bombed Xiaodeng Island, killing 6 and injuring 4 and collapsing 35 houses. On March 30 of that year, it was bombed again, causing 19 deaths and 8 injuries and the destruction of 50 houses.[10]: 13, 297 

At the end of the Chinese Communist Revolution, the battle of Dadeng Island north of Kinmen broke out on October 9, 1949, and Dadeng Island was captured on the 10th. On the 11th, the 851st Regiment of the 84th Division of the 28th People's Liberation Army occupied Xiaodeng Island.[10]: 754  In the 1950s and 1970s, high-pitched speakers were installed on Xiaodeng Island, which was used for mainland propaganda against Kinmen. After the Chinese Civil War, Xiaodeng Island was bombed by the Republic of China Air Force on September 22, 1954, because it was near Kinmen.[3]: 350 [10]: 13  The village on the island was flattened in the artillery battle of "August 23rd" in 1958, killing 34 people.[3]: 351  After that, 9 people from the Xiaodeng Island militia battalion were awarded second-class merit and 54 people were awarded third-class merit by the Chinese PLA, and the island was also called "Three Heroic Islands" together with Dadeng and Jiaoyu islands.[9]

District History[edit]

During the Republican Period, it belonged to Siming County in 1912 and to Dadong Township, Kinmen County in 1914. After being occupied by the Chinese People's Liberation Army in 1949, it was transferred to Xiaodeng Township in Dadeng District, Nan'an County, Quanzhou City in 1950. In 1958, it belonged to Haiyan Brigade, and in 1965, it was renamed Xiaodeng Brigade and belonged to Dadeng Subdistrict. In 1971, it was returned to Tongan County, and in 1984, it belonged to Dadeng Township and was renamed Xiaodeng Village Committee, with two natural villages under its jurisdiction: Qianbao and Houbao. In 1991, it belonged to Dadeng town, in 2003, it belonged to Xiang'an district, in 2005 it was established as Xiaodeng Community Residents' Committee and belonged to Dadeng Street of Xiang'an District.[10]: 770  In 2007, Xiaodeng community was also awarded as "the most beautiful village" in Xiamen. The code of the island in mainland China is 350212000411.[3]: 348–349 [7]

Environment[edit]

Geography[edit]

Xiaodeng Island is located in Xiamen Bay, approximately 1.4 kilometers northwest of the land, and faces Kinmen across the sea in the south. The island is east–west oriented and resembles a Sleeping Beauty reclining in the blue waves.[8] It covers an area of about 0.9671 square kilometers, has a coastline of about 5.8 kilometers, and the surrounding water depth is 0.2 to 2.7 meters.[13] The topography is high in the east and low in the west, the highest point is Xiyuewei with an altitude of 28 meters.[Note 1] The northeast side is a steep cliff and the southwest has a slower shore beach; the coastal coast is mainly an earthen cliff, with local bedrock coast, as well as marine erosion cliffs, caves, and gullies.[3]: 340–341 [14]: 1492 

The geology of the island is similar to Dadeng Island, and it is a bedrock island. The island is located in the Chengbian-Baogai Mountain dynamic metamorphic mixed granite zone near Changle-Nan'ao large fault zone, and the rocks composing the island are Yanshanian igneous rock, with hard bedrock exposed on the north and south-east edges of the island. The engineering geological zoning of the island belongs to the tectonic denudation of bedrock exposed remnant mound subzone; the rest of the area is mostly covered by granite weathering remnants, which belongs to the remnant cover terrace subzone; the mud flats around the island belong to the near-shore intertidal diffuse beach subzone. There is Houbao depression on the island, which is an erosion depression and belongs to the loose rock pore water group, and is a marine accumulation formation.[3]: 338–339 

The intertidal zone of the island is about 3.23 square kilometers, divided into two kinds of rocky beaches and sandy beaches, and the latter is mainly distributed in the south, north, and west of the island, while the former is mainly distributed in the east.[3]: 348, 353–355

Xiamen Bay, where Xiaodeng Island is located, has a subtropical maritime climate with an average annual temperature of 21.2 degrees Celsius, 1,853.1 hours of sunshine, 1,374.8  mm of precipitation, 77% of humidity, 2.8 meters per second of wind speed. The climate is warm and hot with moderate humidity.[3]: 143–144  The region has a variable spring climate with many rainy days; a hot summer with high humidity and many typhoons; a dry autumn with little rain; and a dry and cold winter without severe cold. The average annual temperature on the island is 20.9 degrees Celsius, with an average temperature of 13 degrees Celsius in January and 28.2 degrees Celsius in July, with an annual precipitation of 1,059.8  mm.[13]

Hydrology

Xiamen Bay, where Xiaodeng Island is located, is controlled by the tidal wave system of Taiwan Strait and is a resonant tide.[3]: 147  According to the data obtained from the survey before the construction of the bridge to Dadeng Island in 2022, the sea tide around the island belongs to the regular half-day tide, and the actual measured maximum up and down tide speed on the north channel of Xiaodeng Island is 56, 76  cm per second, and the average flow speed of the vertical up and down tide is 47, 71  cm per second.[15]: 6–7 

Culture[edit]

Xiaodeng Island has a deeper Xianan culture with a unique Hokkien culture style and fishing village culture. The island also has a war culture due to the "August 23rd" artillery battle, and there are many war relics left.[3]: 351 [8]

Cultural Monuments[edit]

After the death of the Southern Song Dynasty, Qiu Kui lived on the island for a long time and left inscribed couplets on Xiaodeng Island such as Chess Game Stone, Fishing Islet Stone, and Le Qiu Stone.[8] The chess game stone is located under the island's tiger halt, more than two feet in length and width, engraved with the words "Ten thousand machines molecular road, a game of smiling back", only "Ten thousand machines divided back" can be identified.[2]: 114  A Mazu Temple was built on Xiaodeng Island in Yuan Dynasty, which is the earliest Mazu Temple in Xiamen and believes in Mazu culture; after the artillery battle of "August 23", there were buildings and relics left on the island such as human defense tunnels, artillery battle sites, and bunkers.[3]: 351 [10]: 833–834 

Ancient Poems and Proverbs[edit]

Zhou Taichu of the Yuan Dynasty wrote a poem about Xiaodeng Island, "The boat looks at Xiaodeng Island", which says: "There are homes in the green banyan bushes in the light cloudy mountains and fine sand. Where do the preachers return to?"[Note 2][10]: 643 

In the 18th year of the Daoguang Qing Dynasty (1838), King Shang Yu of Ryukyu ascended to the throne, and Daoguang Emperor appointed Lin Hongnian, the cultivator of Hanlin Academy, as the main envoy and Gao Renjian, the editor of Hanlin Academy, as the deputy envoy to the Ryukyu Islands, starting from Xiaodeng Island.[16] Besides, there are some fishing proverbs in Xiaodeng Island, such as: "Qingming xie, Guyu hou", which says that sea crabs and sea horseshoe crabs will migrate to the vicinity of Xiaodeng Island during Qingming and Guyu seasons respectively. "Xiaoshu dagan, Dashu dagan", which says that Dashu and Xiaoshu is the time when horseshoe crabs come and will go to catch the sea.[17]

Folk Events[edit]

Every year, on the 12th day of the 4th lunar month of the Chinese calendar, Xiaodeng Island holds the ceremony of the "Horseshoe Crab Festival" to welcome the arrival of horseshoe crabs.

Before liberation, there was the tradition of holding a tug of war on Xiaodeng Island every year during the Spring Festival and it has continued to this day, and then it became a folk activity in the whole territory of Xiangan District.[10]: 701 

Island Construction[edit]

Xiaodeng Island was included in the pilot project of the old village transformation and new village in 2006, and projects such as drainage ditch, street light, road hardening and sports facilities were built, and then the island was targeted for urbanization, but it has not been realized yet.[3]: 353 [10]: 132  In 2013, Xiaodeng Island was listed as a key developed island with residents in the Fujian Province Island Protection Plan, and reclamation started between the island and Dadeng Island for the construction of Xiamen Xiangan International Airport from the same year,[18] and in 2022 The island was affected by the noise pollution and exhaust pollution of the future airport,[19] and it was classified as a no-build area in Xiamen City Village Spatial Layout Plan (2018-2035), and the village on the island will be demolished and relocated as a whole within 3 years.[4][5][Note 3][20]

Transportation[edit]

Land route[edit]

In 1991, a round-island highway was built on Xiaodeng Island, which was connected to the Xiaodeng Island transportation pier where a battery electric vehicle was available to transport passengers.[3]: 352  At present, the main roads on the island are Xiaodeng Road (i.e. Island Ring Road) and Xiaodeng North Road (the main road on the island).[15]: 36  Originally there was only a seawall only passable at low tide, in 2017 a temporary steel trestle bridge was built for the Xiamen Xiang'an International Airport area on Dadeng Island, 360 meters long and 6 meters wide, passable for bicycles and motorcycles, and then connected to the rest of the territory through Dadeng Island, and it was planned to build a permanent bridge after the completion of the Xiang'an airport construction.[21][22] In 2021, the bridge was reinforced because it had reached a service life of 3.5 years of the bridge, and in 2022, it directly started planning the construction of the permanent bridge, which is planned to connect Xiaodeng North Road and the planned Dadeng Island's Huandao Road, 429.3 meters long and 11.5 meters wide, for electric vehicles, electric bicycles and pedestrians to cross the bridge, and it will be completed in December 2024.[15]: 10 

In addition to the transportation within the island and with the mainland, a bridge from Kinmen to Xiamen has been planned several times with Taiwan's Kinmen County: in 2004, Taiwan's Kinmen County government studied and evaluated the Jinxia Peace Bridge from Xiaojinmen to Xiamen Qianpu, and then proposed the Jindaeng Bridge from Kinmen Island to Xiamen Dadeng, but it could not be realized due to cross-strait political factors. In 2009, the Jinxia Bridge has planned again, one which started from Wulong Mountain on Kinmen Island and going through Xiaodeng Island to Dadeng Island, with a total length of 10.3 kilometers, which was proposed again by the Mayor of Taipei Ko Wen-je in 2022, but construction has not yet begun.[23][24]

Waterways[edit]

It is said that Qiu Shi'an built Xiaodeng dock in the late Qing Dynasty on Xiaodeng Island,[16] and now Xiaodeng Island belongs to the Dadeng Port area.[25]: 436  There are 3 wharves in Xiaodeng Island: traffic wharf, freight wharf, and Houbao deep water wharf, and 2 typhoon shelters in Qianbao and Houbao.[14]: 1492 [15]: 22  Among them, the traffic wharf of Xiaodeng Island was completed in 1977, which is a sudden dike and stone structure with an elevation of 7.85 meters and a length of 21 meters, with one berth for 50-ton ships and a designed annual capacity of 0.5 million tons and 50,000 passengers.[25]: 440–445 [14]: 525  In 2009, due to insufficient water depth pier renovation, the berth level was expanded and a floating pier was extended on the southwest side with the following ferry routes:[26][10]: 462 [3]: 352 

  • Lianhe-Small Dadeng Island ferry: Lianhe ferry terminal in Xindian Town - Small Dadeng Island traffic terminal, distance 1.67 nautical miles, ticket price 12 RMB/person
  • Dadeng Island - Xiaodeng Island ferry: Dadeng Island ferry terminal - Xiaodeng Island traffic terminal, distance about 3 nautical miles, ticket price 12 RMB/person

Airlines[edit]

Xiaodeng Island with the construction of Xiamen Xiang'an International Airport will build one Doppler weather radar station on the west of the island with a tower height of 30 meters, including one wind-temperature profile radar and configure several meteorological systems, and weather radar and off-site secondary radar will be built in the east, all the above facilities cover an area of about 0.3 hectares and the total land area covers 8.05 hectares.[27]

Electricity[edit]

At the beginning of Xiaodeng Island, diesel generatorss were used to generate electricity. In 1988, Dadeng Township Government invested RMB710,000 to build a submarine communication cable to Dadeng Island, which was completed on August 25 of the same year and connected to a 35kV Dadeng substation to the Xiamen power grid, in 2009, additional submarine cable was installed.[3]: 353 [10]: 132 [28][29] In 2014,[30] a new floating wave energy generation device developed by Jimei University was built in the sea of Dadeng Island,[31] and the maximum power generation was 3.6 kilowatts. When Xi Jinping researched Xiaodeng Island in 2017, he also requested support for projects such as power generation on Xiaodeng Island by making project allocations.[32]

Water Resources[edit]

At the beginning of the Song Dynasty,[3]: 352  water was taken from Xiaodeng Island through a 5-foot deep well named "Beauty Well",[10]: 832  and after the 1990s, a new submarine water pipeline was built from Dadeng Island to Xiaodeng Island.[33] On April 12, 1991, the water was connected to the tap,[10]: 438–442  and then the island built a solar-wind desalination unit in 2016,[3]: 352  producing 100 tons of tap water per day.[34] There were also breakwaters around the island, initially 1,115 meters long on the south and north sides only, and 1,800 meters long in 1987 due to the construction of the salt farm.[35] However, it was damaged by Typhoon (Dane) in 1999 and rebuilt in 2003, and safety improvements were made in 2019.[35] Now there are wave protection dikes on the seaside, and the waterfront is a stone-piled wave protection wall, and the inner side is a loose artificially excavated breeding pond. There is also a channel area on the northwest side of Xiaodeng Island, 4 to 12 meters deep and in 2006, the tide level wave measurement system was installed in the sea of Xiaodeng Island.[10]: 404
