Xincun Port in Lingshui Li Autonomous County is a harbor for Tanka people who have lived there for generations. The boat-dwelling Tanka people are known as "sea nomads." Their origin is uncertain, but they are considered to be outcasts from the land. They make their living by fishing, and traveling between the sea and shore to get fresh water and vegetables.
Nowadays, with the development of local society and protection of marine fishery resources, more and more Tanka people have left their traditional lifestyle and started a new life on land.
