So far, my favorite coastal town—Weihai

If I had to pick which seaside city attracts me most in summer, Weihai would definitely be on the list‼️ Friends who haven't visited Weihai in July, take note, You must go in August, This hidden gem city will make you never want to leave‼️ . Though Weihai is beautiful, it's very weather-dependent, Bad weather means a wasted trip, Heavy sea fog can obscure everything, No blue skies or sea, and a gloomy mood🙀 . ⚠️Pitfall Avoidance Guide 1️⃣Huoju Eighth Street An anime-like road leading to the sea, but go early or it'll be crowded and disappointing 2️⃣Weihai Park Home of the giant photo frame, skip if weather's bad—photos will turn out terrible💩 3️⃣Swan Lake Not recommended in summer (nothing to see), swans only appear in winter🦢 . 🧵Recommended Itinerary 🔺Day 1 Golden Beach - Watch sunset at International Bathing Beach - Oulefang Night Market 🔺Day 2 Xingfu Park - Yuehai Park - Haiyuan Park - Maotou Mountain - Hanlefang 🔺Day 3 Naxianghai - Jiming Island - Jinshiwan Art Zone 🔺Day 4 Blueways Shipwreck - Hailv Island - Chengshantou - Motianling Cable Car 🔺Day 5 Shendiaoshan Wildlife Park - Return trip . 📍Attraction Highlights: ✅Maotou Mountain Perfect sunset spot🌅 at Observation Platform 3 on Huanhai Road ✅Yuehai Park Iconic lighthouse photo spot ✅Naxianghai Free🆓 diamond-like beach is amazing, with photogenic beachfront log cabin café📷 ✅Jiming Island Filming location for "Where Are We Going, Dad?", featuring cliffside café and church ✅Blueways Shipwreck Giant stranded ship—best photographed at sunrise for fewer crowds and great atmosphere ✅Hailv Island Boat tour to feed seagulls up close.
