Sunrise and sunset at Beidaihe Beach in Qinhuangdao

Super easy guide to watching the sunrise at Beidaihe in Qinhuangdao! ||| Working in Beijing, I impulsively decided to go to Beidaihe to watch the sunrise, and here's a travel guide you can copy~ 🏠 Before going, I saw that Tiger Stone Park was a good spot for sunrise, so I chose a hotel nearby. After arriving, I found that the area was full of hotels, and since it's the off-season, prices are generally between 100-200. 🌅 The hotels in the vicinity are just a few minutes' walk from Tiger Stone Park, but around six o'clock the park gates are still closed, and everyone climbs over the gate to get in (uh...). Make sure to check the sunrise time in advance, and after watching it, you can go back to sleep, which is super comfortable. 🏞️ Actually, besides the beach, there aren't many fun places in Beidaihe, and many shops are closed during the off-season. However, the city's architecture is very European, so you can stroll around in the afternoon, take pictures, enjoy the breeze by the sea, and watch the sunset right here in the evening! Yes, you can see both sunrise and sunset here! 🍜 There are many seafood restaurants locally, but as someone from inland, I don't like seafood so I didn't try it. The night market closest to Tiger Stone is called Qinhuang Alley, which has a lot of food, and you can take a taxi there, buy food, and bring it back to the hotel to eat. 🚃 For the train station, choose Beidaihe Station (not Qinhuangdao Station), which is closer to Tiger Stone Park. It takes over three hours from Beijing to Beidaihe on a green train, with tickets around 45. My ticket was on standby, and it felt pretty easy to get. 🚗 Local taxis are quite expensive, and taxi fares accounted for one-third of our total expenses. I suggest you take a look at public transportation. 🛝 In the afternoon, we also went to Pigeon Nest Park, which has an entrance fee of 35. I thought we could watch the sunset there, but after arriving, I realized we couldn't see it at all; the whole sea faces east! The sun sets behind us... But it's still pretty good for taking pictures! 🤔 Other: There are a lot of people trying to get you to go on a boat tour, we ignored them. I don't know if there are any traps in this, so everyone should be cautious and discerning.
