Yangma Island - Yantai
Yangma Island is located in the Yellow Sea, Muping District, Yantai City,of Shandong Province. sometimes referred to as “Horse Island”.
Me and my friends drove to Yangma Island. There are a few nice tourist spots with wonderful view.
First we were amazed by the sunset and we spent some time watching the sun hiding behind the horizon. It was very relaxing and nice but after a while we were trying to find a place where we can get coffee unfortunately nowhere really decent for coffee. It didn't take us too long to understand that next time better bring our own water/drinks and just enjoy the view.
Address: No.99, Tianma Road, Muping Yantai.

People from abroad might think Qingdao is beautiful enough, until they come to Yantai
Yantai may not have the hustle and bustle of Qingdao, but it's definitely niche and beautiful❤️ Here, there are fewer people and more beautiful scenery, the azure sky and sea, romantic European-style architecture, and roads leading to the ocean... This city brings me not only visual enjoyment but also the tranquility and comfort of a slow life🌈
If you happen to be in Yantai for just one day, you will definitely find this Yantai one-day tour guide useful🥰
1⃣️【Route Guide】💯
🚗Yantai Mountain → Chaoyang Street → Binhai Square → Moon Bay → Zhanqiao (can be skipped if short on time) ⇒ Second Sea Bathing Beach ⇒ Haichang Fisherman's Wharf
2⃣️【Attraction Recommendations】💯
📍Yantai Mountain: A landmark of Yantai, not a high mountain, with historical literati memorial hall, former sites of consulates of various countries and a museum on the mountain. There is a lighthouse on the top (10r/person to climb), from which you can overlook the integrated beauty of Yantai's mountains, sea, city, and port. Chaoyang Road is right next to it when you come down.
📍Chaoyang Street: A leisurely and trendy European-style street at the foot of Yantai Mountain, with a building covered in pandas, where you can take photos and eat.
📍Haichang Fisherman's Wharf: European retro architecture, easy to get a Bruges-style blockbuster, check in the same sea rail as in 'Spirited Away', giving me the illusion of being in a foreign land, very beautiful and artistic. When traveling to Yantai, don't miss this place (next to the wharf is the Second Sea Bathing Beach).
📍Moon Bay: There is a sculpture of the Moon Elder, a place for making vows, where you can hang wish plaques and love locks. Next to it is the East Fort, which you can visit along the way.
Two attractions further from the city center‼️:
📍Golden Sand Beach Seaside Park A Lonely Whale: When a whale falls, all things come to life.
📍Yangma Island: Named for the legend that Emperor Qin Shi Huang once raised horses here, known as the 'Hawaii of the East', if you have enough time, you can plan to spend half a day to see it.
3⃣️【Travel Guide】💯
There is no subway, Taxi/Bus: Get the 'Yantai Electronic Card' on Alipay for the ride, one yuan per ticket. Be sure to take a romantic ride on the double-decker No. 17 bus that circles the sea, the journey is all along the sea, very beautiful.
4⃣️【Accommodation Guide】💯
Laishan District: Near the university town (get off at Yantai South)
Zhi2 District: Near Yantai Station or Binhai Square
Convenient, and closer to the attractions

Haichang Fisherman's Wharf Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Mar)
It's not that I can't afford to go to Europe, but Yantai is more cost-effective!
On the day in Yantai, we encountered a heavy snowfall that we haven't seen in recent years❄️
From the lonely whale to the fisherman's wharf more than 20 kilometers away
It took a full four hours
Because of the heavy wind and snow, the traffic was blocked and paralyzed several times
Many locals said they had never seen such a heavy snowfall in Yantai☃️
But! This! Can't stop!
My heart to go to the fisherman's wharf❤️❤️❤️
Taxi➕Bus➕Taxi➕Walking➕Bus
Finally, I arrived at the fisherman's wharf before sunset!
-
I stepped on the thick snow that didn't pass my calf, standing at the railing and looking at the fisherman's wharf
Because of the strong exotic architectural style
Plus the falling snowflakes and the white snow on the roof
The whole feel is more Nordic!
The sunset opposite the fisherman's wharf where we went in the evening was also very beautiful
It instantly dispelled our fatigue from running around all day
As it was about to enter the night, we also started shooting under the street lights next to the bus station
A warm yellow light shines on the snow, although the temperature is very low, it feels warm
We also went to the white wave coffee and had a cup of latte☕️super warm~

☃️Fisherman's Wharf Guide
❄️If you come from the city, you can take the No. 10 bus back and forth, which is very convenient
❄️The buildings near the fisherman's wharf seem to only turn on the lights on weekends. It was a bit regretful when we went there and the lights were not on
Friends thought I went to Prague abroad, but actually I'm at Yantai Fisherman's Wharf in Shandong.
When you come to Yantai, be sure to visit the Fisherman's Wharf.
I heard that the place known as "Bruges of Yantai" is really beautiful!
Yantai Haichang Fisherman's Wharf is the most exotic place in Yantai and the first choice for sea viewing.
Located on Binhai Middle Road in Laishan District, Yantai City, facing the Yellow Sea to the east, adjacent to the Second Seawater Bathing Beach to the north, and reaching the original fishing port to the south, surrounded by the sea on three sides.
Here, there is a cluster of Victorian-style buildings, rich European style, with sea breeze and seagull cries. When you walk among them, it feels like being in a foreign port town. It's really nice.
Come out for a walk and choose a corner of the bay to enjoy a different view of the sea-like Prague scenery.
Blow the sea breeze on the East Sea Observation Deck, watch the sunrise over the sea, and embrace the first ray of sunshine.
To the south, you can board a cruise ship to the offshore ranch and enjoy leisure activities on the "Genghai No.1". You can also camp and take a leisurely stroll. How delightful!
Self-driving or public transportation are both very convenient.
Haichang Fisherman's Wharf
European style architecture. it is a
very nice place to visit with family or friends. There are restaurants and entertainment facilities.
Although the Food is very expensive and over-priced, and the service isn’t the best.
But still I guess you can have a good day there as it is very beautiful spot. Also there are some attractions 🎠 and a Shark Aquarium. Shark enthusiasts will love that place.
It was very beautiful watching the sunset and you’ll always get a very nice view if you drive along the coast.
Address: No.45, Binhai Middle Road (Beside
the Second Bathing Beach), Laishan, Yantai.

City Landmarks | Not in Europe, this is Yantai!
| Not in Europe, this is Yantai!. When I arrived, it was still early in the morning,
many shops were still closed, and there were no tourists yet
But the scenery without people is even more beautiful
The thick snow on the ground had not melted
Facing the sea, snowfields, fishing boats, sunrise
And along the coast is a row of exotic buildings
Reflecting each other, it really looks so good
I could sit quietly in this place for a whole day
Location: Haichang Fisherman's Wharf, Yantai City

#chinalife #yantai #memories
Yantai | So I turned around and walked towards the sea
In the lingering heat of summer, I followed the mountains and the sea once more
At this time, there are fewer tourists at the attractions, and more seafood in the market, everything is just right.
🚄Transport: High-speed train Yantai Station/Yantai South Station
🏨Accommodation: Zhifu District·Manxin Hotel (The hotel is in a great location, situated on Chaoyang Street, just a few steps away from Yantai Mountain, saving the trouble of commuting to two attractions)
0⃣️ Day 0 | Arrival
Arrived at the hotel in the evening and ordered takeout from 'Qingdao Lao Wang Wild Wonton Barbecue', the taste was really good, and it became even better with pancakes and green onions!
1⃣️ Day 1 | Climbing mountains and watching the sea, waiting for the sunset
⛰️Yantai Mountain: No entrance fee, the lighthouse is beautiful but I didn't go up because of the queue, found a spot where you can take photos of a heart-shaped seascape, snapped eighty-one pictures (P2)
🏖️Second Bathing Beach: Took a taxi to the Fisherman's Wharf, parked the car at this spot, saw fewer people and walked into the sea, the second bath was the most surprising place of the whole trip, the sea water was incredibly clear, didn't want to leave (P3)
⛵️Fisherman's Wharf: After playing in the water at the second bath, walked uphill, the scenery along the way was very beautiful, checked in at the sea railway track, even if not for taking photos, that stretch of beach is also very clear and fun~
🦭🌛East Fort Moon Bay: Headed straight for Seal Bay, the boardwalk next to it is also worth walking with the sea breeze; near the end, there is a rocky beach, suitable for those who like to watch the waves hitting the rocks (P1); Moon Bay is not recommended for a special visit, but the evening light is gentle, and you can take atmospheric photos
🌄Housha Square: At 5:15, waited directly for the sunset, really liked the classic spot in P5, although the clouds were thick that day and I didn't see the ideal sunset, but the afterglow of the sunset/glass rooftop/group silhouette looked very healing!
2⃣️ Day 2 | Eating seafood, Yangma Island
🦞 Cultural Road Farmers' Market: A traditional market with a lively atmosphere, need to do some homework before going to see how various seafood are sold recently. Bought some and had it cooked at Lai Run Snacks, the spicy fried shrimp and the taste of gala were very memorable, the freshness of the seafood was not lost, and the seasoning was just right
🏝️Yangma Island: A one-sentence sharp comment 'If you haven't been, you'll be unwilling; if you have, you'll be disheartened', the scenery of this island heavily depends on the weather and the tide, if it's not a super sunny day, it's advised to head back. In the spirit of seeing is believing, chartered a car to go around the island, but because the clouds that day were thicker than my bills, the sea also seemed lifeless, until 5 o'clock when the sun finally came out, took the only beautiful sunset photo at Lotus Sunset (P6)
🍢Yantai Snack Street: Envious of saying I'm tired, hundreds of snacks gathered is just too blissful.. walked around half of it and was basically full, but that didn't stop me, packed everything to go!
3⃣️ Day 3 | Return
🏠Suochengli: Thought it was Chaoyang Street Pro before going, but found out it was Chaoyang Street SE, optional visit~ A restaurant in the attraction is not recommended, the only surprise was Yantai apple juice, so delicious I could lose my head, rested at noon for a while then took the high-speed train back!
Because I was too lazy to get up early, I didn't make use of the last two mornings, so even those with only two days can have a great time!
I'm off, thank you Yantai!
Gulangyu in Fuzhou is endlessly charming, making people never get tired of it even after ten thousand visits!
👀Some say it's like Qingdao, some say it's like Gulangyu, but in fact, it has its own unique charm, unknown to others!
🌈Half of the romance of Fuzhou is here. In the streets and alleys of Yantai Mountain, at the corner, through the ups and downs of a hundred years, witnessing history and poetry.
📍Location: Cangshan District, Yantai Mountain
🚇Transportation: Get off at Shangteng Station on Metro Line 1
🏯There is a large area here in Yantai Mountain, not only Yantai Mountain Park, but also many streets and buildings, which are very photogenic and scattered.
🚶I strolled around for half a day and summarized a route: Metro Station→Wanchun Lane→Lixin Road→Park Road→Progress Road→Maiyuan Road→Huaiyin Lane→Lequn Road→Dongqun Road→Chiho Lane→Y+space→Cangqian Road→Metro Station
🌟Come to Yantai Mountain and feel its unique charm!

Changdao Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Mar)
The sunrise in the east is as red as fire, here's a guide to watching the sunrise on Changdao
Looking for a place where you can see the sea and the sunset?
Why not go to Changdao!
For just 45 yuan, you can take a boat to the fairy island of Changdao at sea.
The joy of watching the sunset lies in
You can't be sure that you will definitely see the sunset today,
Nor can you know what color the afterglow will be today.
When you climb to the top of the mountain,
You no longer have to take videos and type at the same time saying,
'The sunset is really beautiful, we must come to see it together next time',
Instead, you run hand in hand with them along the shores of the orange sea,
The sound of the waves, the wind, and the whispers in your ears,
Everything is beautiful.

Here you can taste the fresh flavors of abalone, sea urchin, crab, shrimp, sea snail, scallop, sea rainbow, oyster, and special braised fish, as well as other seafood giants. The specialty dishes of the fishermen's joy, such as seaweed buns and Spanish mackerel dumplings, are also unforgettable, full of Changdao flavor.

Really in Shandong! | How amazing is the most beautiful island in China rated by National Geographic!!!
| How amazing is the most beautiful island in China rated by National Geographic!!!. Daheshan Island in Changdao County, Yantai, Shandong, is an island surrounded by the sea. It not only has unique marine erosion landforms and natural scenery of strange reefs and strange stones, but also has a rich marine culture and fishing folk customs. It is also rated by National Geographic as one of the top ten most beautiful islands in China.
The key is that this is a very niche treasure island, because it needs to take a boat to get there, and there are only two shifts a day, so the number of tourists arriving daily is limited, which also ensures the comfort of the travel experience to the greatest extent.
1 Longzhuashan National Geological Park
As the saying goes, 'If you don't visit Longzhuashan, you don't count as coming to Changdao.' At the northernmost end of the island, there are five steep cliffs standing side by side, which are quite shocking. There are three must-visit spots in the park, namely 'Tianmendongkai', 'Juxiandong', and 'Haishi Zhandao'. Among them, 'Tianmendongkai' is the most spectacular, and the cave in the middle is like the 'Eye of Daheshan Island', which is very photogenic.
2 Towing Tail Beach
It's really a beautiful view that will attract you at first sight. The best viewing period is after the tide recedes, and the Towing Tail Beach reveals its full view. It's a scene that only exists in movies, but the sand on the beach is not fine sand, the particles are relatively large.
3 Beizhuang Site
This primitive village site, with its large scale, complete preservation, and rich remains, is rare in our country. It is another major discovery after the Banpo Lintong Jiangzhai in Xi'an, and is known as the Eastern Banpo by the archaeological community. It is currently also a national key cultural relic protection unit.
Address: Daheshan Island, Changdao, Penglai, Shandong
Transportation:
Self-driving-'Yantai Pengchang Passenger Port'-Take a boat-Daheshan Island
Dock day and night parking lot
Take a bus to 'Penglai Station'-Take a taxi-'Yantai Pengchang Passenger Port'-Take a boat-Daheshan Island
Tips:
1 The boat ticket for the trip to the island needs to be bought in advance, and the return ticket can be bought at the dock after arriving on the island; the departure time will be adjusted according to the weather, and you need to pay attention to the official information in real time;
2 Arrive at the port at least 30min in advance, and board the ship after security check;
3 Bring bread or steamed buns, you can feed the seagulls on the boat.
The scenic Changdao Port
Changdao Port is located in the Quezui Bay on the west coast of Nanchangshan Island in the south of Penglai District, Yantai City, northern Shandong Peninsula, facing the Temple Island to the west and Penglai City across the Temple Island Strait to the south.
The water area of Changdao Port is about 8700 square kilometers, with a total coastline of 146.14 kilometers. There are 10 inhabited and navigable islands. The Beicheng in the north is 23 nautical miles from the west corner of Laotieshan in Dalian, and the Nanchangshan Island in the south is 6.3 nautical miles from Penglai Corner.
Penglai District of Yantai City has 2 towns and 6 townships under its jurisdiction, located on Nanchangshan Island. Nanchangshan Island is the closest to Beichangshan Island and is connected by a dam, so Changdao Port is the hub for the entry and exit of materials and personnel in the entire region.
In addition, the five islands of Tuoji Island, Daqin Island, Xiaoqin Island, Nancheng Island, and Beicheng Island in the north of Nanchangshan Island are called 'North Five Islands', and the Temple Island, Xiaoheishan Island, and Daheishan Island in the west are called 'West Three Townships', collectively referred to as the North West Eight Islands. All the above-mentioned islands have built land-island traffic piers due to the needs of passenger and cargo transportation and tourism, mainly serving the personnel and material exchanges between islands and between islands and the mainland, most of which are 500-ton berths, and some have the ability to berth 1000-ton ships. In 2007, the total cargo throughput of the North West Eight Islands was 52.62 million tons, and the annual passenger throughput was 1.52614 million people, mainly island residents.

Penglai Pavilion Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Mar)
College student travel special forces
This May, I took a ferry from Dalian to Yantai, and got a direct student ticket for 180 round trips!
Arrived in Yantai city area at more than eleven o'clock in the evening, decisively went to Haidilao to enjoy 69% discount!
The hotel is a Home Inn near Yantai Station, the service is very good, the room is also clean and tidy, it is very comfortable to live in! It's very convenient to go anywhere, there is Joy City nearby, if you have time, you can also go shopping, you can see Zhiyu Bay on the top floor!
I booked a tour group to Penglai District·Yantai one day in advance, and I was lucky enough to be a small group. The included projects are also many, and there is no forced consumption. I highly recommend the tour group! The guide's explanation is also very interesting! Pick-up and drop-off are all at the hotel entrance!
I strolled around in Penglai Scenic Area for a day. I wanted to eat Penglai noodles. As a result, I went late and found that most of the noodle restaurants were closed . I looked at the recommendations on the Internet and went to a noodle restaurant that was not very close and had not closed yet. There was only one bowl of sea urchin noodles left, which was really fresh! Bone soup noodles are also very good, but they are a bit inferior compared to small noodles!
I also visited the filming location of Hello, Mr. Billionaire, Wencheng Castle! Not highly recommended! Because most of the inside is under maintenance.
After returning to the hotel from Penglai, I took a rest for a while, and then went to the Happy Night Market, which was really crowded with people!
The next day I went to Suochengli and Chaoyang Pedestrian Street, saw a wall full of teddy bears, and ate at a very popular small restaurant. I also took the "17" route and went to see Moon Bay.
You can basically take a bus in Yantai city to meet our needs for sightseeing spots, it's really convenient!
In the evening, I took a direct ferry back to Dalian, ending the two-day and two-night travel life!
I really like Yantai, I feel that the sea breeze is very gentle!

Worth a visit, plan for 4 hours with the museum, walk up the hill is a bit steep.
one carving in stone had different writing, old Chinese characters almost like sanscrit.
Entrance is 100rmb, bring your passport.
