Yantai

A famous seaside city on the Jiaodong Peninsula, Yantai pairs the fairy-tale legends of Penglai Pavilion, the island scenery of Changdao and wine culture.

Yantai lies in the northeast of the Shandong Peninsula on the Yellow Sea and Bohai Sea, a well-known seaside tourist city and wine region. Penglai Pavilion is tied to the legend of the Eight Immortals crossing the sea, and is a prime spot for sea views and for seeking mirages; Changdao is made up of many islands, good for sea fishing and sightseeing. In the city you can visit Yantai Hill and the Changyu Wine Culture Museum; the Longkou Nanshan scenic area is vast, and Yangma Island is another relaxing spot. Summer and autumn are the best seasons for a seaside holiday. You can arrive via Yantai Penglai International Airport or high-speed rail.
