Basic introduction of Liusha Nanzhu

Leizhou is rich in "Nanzhu", which is crystal clear and shimmering. 'Nanzhu' refers to the sea pearls produced in China. In history, it referred to pearls produced in the sea areas of Guleizhou (now Zhanjiang City) and Gulianzhou (now Beihai City) along the Beibu Gulf. Now it generally refers to pearls produced along the coasts of Guangdong, Guangxi, and Hainan. There has been a saying since ancient times that 'Eastern pearls are not as good as Western pearls, and Western pearls are not as good as Southern pearls'. Therefore, in history, Nanzhu is the most famous. Nanzhu is exquisite and elegant, with bright colors and dazzling brilliance. People from all over the world regard it as a treasure and collect and wear it. It is a symbol of wealth and purity, known as the queen of gems and one of the legendary seven treasures of Buddhism

Zhanjiang City faces the sea three times, with 1556 kilometers of coastline and 9908 hectares of mudflat. Most of the harbors have moderate salinity, small waves, rich bait organisms, and are suitable for pearl cultivation. The main areas for pearl cultivation are Leizhou, Xuwen, and Suixi counties (cities) on the Leizhou Peninsula. Sea water pearls are of the highest quality and grade, with 'Nanzhu' being the best. The Leizhou Peninsula is the main production area of southern pearls. As early as the Qin Dynasty, pearl farmers had been harvesting pearls, and the Later Han Dynasty had already produced pearls. Throughout history, emperors sent eunuchs to guard the pearl pool and collect pearls to pay tribute to the court. After liberation, the Communist Party of China attached great importance to the development and utilization of Nanzhu. In November 1957, the Premier instructed, "We must improve the production of Nanzhu and replace the thousands of years old natural pearl fishing with artificial breeding." Encouraged by Premier Zhou's instructions, experimental breeding of Nanzhu began in the Zhanjiang area in 1958
