Yantai, a relaxing coastal city in Shandong Province, is also one of the famous historical and cultural cities of China.

Here you can enjoy the endless coastline, appreciate fairyland scenery, have fun on the beach, and savor various seafood.

⭐⭐
You're Going to Love Yantai
⭐⭐
Yantai is an inspired choice for those who want sandy beaches and unusual and beautiful attractions. This small city on the Shandong coast is known for its wineries, its scenery, and its ancient and modern architecture.

⭐⭐
It's a Place of Contrasts
⭐⭐
Stroll along Binhai Road in the day and enjoy the seaside scenery on one side and the modern architecture on the other. Visit at night and it's transformed into the 'Binhai Strip', a dazzling neonlit expanse of bars and clubs with the Huanghai Sea Casino at its center.

⭐⭐
A Treaty Port's Many Influences
⭐⭐
The charming port city of Yāntái has one of the fastestgrowing economies in China, not surprising given its high tech industry and a colorful history of international trade and foreign settlement.

Acclaimed by the United Nations as one of the world's most habitable places, Yāntái was home to consulates of 17 nations at one time. Many of those architectural gems can still be seen among the stone paths and ocean views of beautiful Yāntái Hill Park.

⭐⭐
Myth, Mirages And Unforgettable Sunrises
⭐⭐
Since its construction in 1061 the Penglai Pavilion has been known as a 'fairyland' where emperors sought magical elixirs, where the Eight Immortals of Chinese mythology were said to have landed, and where mirages at sea are still seen.

Located 45 minutes from Yāntái at the northernmost tip of the Shandong peninsula, the structure is one of the Four Great Towers of China. There is a climb to the pavilion's cliffside perch, passing a number of temples and an ancient naval base, but its gorgeous sunrises and the strange mirages seen after heavy rains are worth the effort.

⭐⭐
An Islet For Immortality
⭐⭐
While there are numerous beaches in Yāntái, picturesque Zhifu Island combines lush vegetation and forests with isolated sandy beaches, excellent clam fishing, and rocky crags and cliffs that overhang the Bohai Sea.

⭐⭐
Gold Beach
⭐⭐
Yantai Gold Beach is reputed as "the finest beach in North China" with its gentle slope, clean water, and soft sand. It is also one of the best natural bathing beaches in China.

Gold Beach, as its name implies, has golden and bright sand. The vast beach covers an area of 23.5 square kilometers. So you can easily find some open space to fully enjoy yourself. With some friends, you can even play beach football or volleyball there.

When the fiery sun rises from the east or sinks to the west, the sea becomes a magnificent picture bathing in the shining light. The golden waves, fishing sails, groups of seagulls and soft sand blend harmoniously in this picture, which is quite a poetic scene.

It is also one of the most beautiful moments when you can take some pictures of the scenery or yourself to save this memory.

⭐⭐
Yangma Island
⭐⭐
Yangma Island is located in the north of Mouping District, Yantai, with a large area of 13.52 square kilometers. The island has a pleasant climate, which is not too cold in winter or too hot in summer, thus very suitable for leisure and vacation.

The island is characterized by rolling hills, lush trees, and horse sculptures. The sea surface in front of the island is wide and calm. The rocks behind the island are rugged and the waves are pounding on the bank.

It is suitable for sightseeing and hiking. The east end of the blue water is an excellent bathing beach, suitable for swimming, while the western end of the deep water has few waves, forming a good natural harbor.

The island is rich in sea cucumber, scallop, abalone, prawn, oyster, swan egg and other seafood, which is also a paradise for seafood lovers.
