Shandong Yantai Penglai Changdao three-day two-night travel guide 😜 Changdao is divided into South Island and North Island 🎈. 🚉 Transportation Guide: Out-of-town cars are not allowed on Changdao, you have to take a boat from Penglai 😃. Buy tickets in advance 🎫. Sometimes the boat information will be updated, and sailings may be canceled on windy days. The ticket price is 45 yuan, and it takes 40 minutes to get there 😎. Bring some ham and bread to feed the seagulls on the boat. It costs an extra 20 yuan on the way there and 10 yuan on the way back. Someone will sell you an upgrade to feed the seagulls on the boat 😜. If you have luggage, the crew will collect it before boarding, and you can pick it up next to the boat when you disembark, so you don't have to carry it yourself 🧳. Taxis are inconvenient on the island, you have to wait for the bus, if there are many people, you can charter a car, if there are few people, you can rent an electric scooter. The attractions are not far, so a small electric scooter will do 🛵. 🏨 Hotel Environment: There are many accommodation options on North Island, including fishing inns and homestays 😃. It is recommended to stay near Jiuzhangya, which is convenient for watching the sunset 🌅. 🍲 Food Recommendations: Fishing inns offer group meals at 80 yuan and 50 yuan levels, with relatively light flavors 😕. For those who like spicy food, bring some chili sauce 🌶️. You can also find highly-rated restaurants nearby, such as Sichuan cuisine restaurants 🥘. Mingzhu Plaza is a night market street with many options, and the barbecue is good 😋. 🗓 Itinerary: DAY1: Arrive at Penglai Port, take a boat to Changdao, stay in a homestay, and after resting, visit the North Line: Crescent Bay + Jiuzhangya. These two places are connected, go to Crescent Bay first, then Jiuzhangya, and watch the sunset at Jiuzhangya, it's beautiful 😃! DAY2: In the morning, take a boat to Daheishan Island (the filming location of "Parents' Love", actually all the islands are similar, going here is a bit of a hassle, it's more relaxing to go sea fishing 😜). In the afternoon, visit the South Island, first go to Xianjingyuan, the scenic area is small and there are few people, you can sit by the sea. Then go to Fengshan Linhai to see the boundary line between the Yellow Sea and the Bohai Sea, and wait for the sunset 🌄. D3: Free arrangement, I returned to Penglai Pavilion in the morning, which is next to the pier, you can get there by scanning a shared electric scooter. If you don't want to enter the pavilion, just stroll along the seaside nearby 🚶‍♂️. 📝 Tips: Essential items: sunscreen 🧴, sun hat 👒, sunglasses 🕶️, portable fan 💨, Huoxiang Zhengqi water 💊. Notes: 1. The weather is hot, pay attention to heatstroke prevention, and drink more water 💦. 2. The ultraviolet rays by the sea are strong, do a good job of sun protection to avoid sunburn 😎. 3. Although seafood is good, eat it in moderation to prevent gastrointestinal discomfort 🤢. 4. Wear comfortable and breathable clothes and shoes for easy play 👟. Hope you have a great time in Changdao 😁!

Two-day One-night Trip to Changdao Island

🗓Itinerary: Drive from Qingdao for two and a half hours to Penglai Changdao Passenger Terminal (We arrived at noon, and the parking lot at the terminal was already full. There is an unfinished building a bit further past the terminal entrance where you can park. It's shaded and costs 50 yuan if you leave before 7 PM the next day.) The place to board the ferry was crowded, so buy tickets in advance on the Changdao Ferry WeChat mini-program (Buying tickets on-site might not get you the desired time, and you'll have to wait.) You can pick up tickets on-site or use your ID card to enter directly. We took a roll-on/roll-off ferry with cars, which was very noisy. If you want to go to the upper deck, it costs 20 yuan per person, and you get a sausage to feed the seagulls. (The normal ferry ticket area for feeding seagulls is blocked by nets. We bought tickets to go upstairs, but it was crowded.) It takes about 50 minutes to reach Changdao. We had arranged for a driver from our homestay to pick us up. After disembarking, you need to walk ten minutes to the pick-up parking lot. It's very sunny and humid. The island is small, with only taxis and tour buses. If possible, it's recommended to rent a car. There are many small electric vehicles, and you can scan a code to rent one if you can ride. ⛰【Attraction Guide】 📍Detailed Address: Jiuzhangya and Crescent Bay on the northernmost part of North Changdao Island 🚗Transportation Guide: Take a taxi from near Mingzhu Square, costing over 30 yuan 💰Ticket Price: There is an island-wide pass for 150 yuan that covers several attractions 🌟Highlights: The scenery is nice. The beach is made of pebbles and worth seeing. 📌Tips: We took a taxi to Jiuzhangya first. It takes less than an hour to walk around slowly. From Jiuzhangya, you can take an electric car for 20 yuan per person to Crescent Bay Beach. It's just a beach with nothing else to see. You can feed sea lions with 20 yuan worth of fish food, which is good for kids. The main point is!!!! It's hard to get a taxi from Crescent Bay Beach!!! There is a tour bus to the west of the entrance, costing 5 yuan per person. It leaves only when full. We waited for an hour on the bus before it departed (we left during sunset at Jiuzhangya, so the bus was empty. The driver took us back to Jiuzhangya to fill the bus before leaving, so the wait was very long). The bus has several stops. We got off at the final stop, Mingzhu Square. There is a night market at the square in the evening, and Mingzhu Beach is also there. For someone who grew up by the sea, it's just okay. ⛰【Attraction Guide】 📍Detailed Address: On the second day, take a taxi from Mingzhu Square to Fengshan Forest Park for 10 yuan. It opens at 7:30 AM, so it's recommended to arrive early. 🚗Transportation Guide: There is a 20 yuan per person electric car at the entrance, which is a must! Walking up the hill takes a long time. The electric car takes you to the top of the hill first. From there, you walk 220 steps to the top where there is an eagle 🦅. The day we went, it was very foggy, and we couldn't see anything. With the electric car ticket, you can continue to the Yellow Sea and Bohai Sea boundary line (viewed from a high point). After that, take a tram-like vehicle to the beach at the boundary line. The beach is also made of pebbles, which kids love. There are other attractions you can visit if you have the energy. 🕙Opening Hours: The park opens at 7:30 AM. There is a light show in the evening. We arrived at 8 AM and finished by 10. The queue for the electric car gets longer, but it's worth the 20 yuan. Keep your ticket as you can use the car throughout the park. We lost our ticket and had to walk to the exit. 💰Ticket Price: Included in the island-wide pass, you can enter with your ID card. 🌟Highlights: The Yellow Sea and Bohai Sea boundary line is worth seeing. The other attractions are small and can be seen quickly. 📌Tips: Take a taxi from the park exit. It cost us 10 yuan to get there but 15 yuan to leave, so we walked to the main road and asked several taxis. 🗓Itinerary: We didn't visit other attractions. We took a ferry back to Penglai at noon on the second day. We bought a higher-class ferry ticket that doesn't carry cars. It costs an extra 20 yuan per person to go upstairs and feed the seagulls. After arriving in Penglai, we had lunch and then drove to Yantai. Last winter, we visited Yantai but didn't go up Yantai Hill because it was too late. This time, we went to see it. ❤Recommendation: There's not much to recommend. It's just a small island. The accommodation is humid, and the place is small. After visiting once, you wouldn't want to go again.

No wonder it is one of the top ten most beautiful islands in China, super healing

No wonder it is one of the top ten most beautiful islands in China, super healing. You must visit Changdao, where you will find the most beautiful Penglai pebbles you have never seen before! No one can resist the charm of Penglai pebbles! Before going to Yantai, I saw two islands in the Yantai travel guide: one is Changdao, and the other is Yangma Island. There are the most notes about these two islands, so I was always hesitant, not knowing which one to choose. Later, I decided that adults don't make choices; I will visit both. After visiting Changdao, I realized that the beach here is not just sand, but Penglai pebbles! Can you imagine a beach full of Penglai pebbles shining under the sun? I was instantly captivated when I saw this scene. If it weren't for the signs everywhere saying 'No picking of Penglai pebbles,' I would definitely have picked a big bag to take home and hide! 27JN~ Attraction address: Changdao, Penglai District, Yantai City Attraction transportation: Transportation is not very convenient. I took a plane from Shanghai to Penglai Airport, then went to Pengchang Passenger Port in Penglai, and took a passenger ship to Changdao Port. The boat trip takes 45 minutes to reach Changdao. The passenger ship departs approximately every 30 minutes, costing 45 yuan per person. You can upgrade your cabin for an additional fee, 20 yuan on the way there and 10 yuan on the way back. You can feed seagulls on the boat, which is very cost-effective. Must-visit attractions: ① Jiuzhangya: This is a cliff by the sea, actually higher than nine zhang. You can take very beautiful photos here. There are many seagulls at Jiuzhangya, and feeding them can attract them to fly. The sea water is very clear, especially beautiful on sunny days. ② Yueya Bay: There are many Penglai pebbles on the beach here! A must-visit, highly recommended! There is also a seal pavilion here, which children will love, and you can feed the seals up close. ③ Xianjingyuan: This is a long coastline with S-bends and beaches. Ticket information: Changdao is divided into North Island and South Island. If you buy tickets separately, it will be more expensive. It is recommended to buy a combined ticket. The full line ticket is 135 yuan online. The North Line or South Line ticket is 95 yuan per person. Many attractions are connected, for example, you can walk from Jiuzhangya to Yueya Bay. In theory, as long as you have enough physical strength, you don't need to buy two tickets.

Magic Island ( Changdao Island ) Bohi sea.

How I found myself visiting Changdao Island was astonishing. I can’t say I regret visiting this place. It was an amazing experience I would rather dare to embark upon again and again. This island is one of the best in Shandong province China. Though a bit more expensive than other islands. It’s situated about 90km away from the yantai city. It requires a mini ship to get to this island. It cost 45 yuan per ride and it takes 40 minutes by mini-ship to arrive the Island. The second picture of this post is exactly where you get your ticket and board the ship. You could also get a hotel reservation online or better still get a place upon arrival. Hotel ranges from 250RMB including food. We were lucky to get a guest house for 300RMB including three square meals. We didn't book a tour guide as we had a Chinese friend with us. So, I will advise you to either go through a tour group or better still if you can speak better Chinese, then you are all good for the entire trip. There are over three beaches to visit but only one of them has an entrance fee. There are games and activities for tourists there. Be sure to specify which you intend to take part in and you will pay accordingly. One funny thing there is that, the locals always assume tourists has a lot of money therefore, they are willing to squeeze you dry. At night you can visit the main square downtown where you will find a lot of barbecue shops and open pubs. It's a good night view around this time. If you don't mind, please leave me a like. Thanks and enjoy your trip. #yantaiisland #changdaisland #Pengliachina #bohisea

I thought Yantai couldn't get any more beautiful until I set foot on Changdao

😲This isn't abroad❗ It's our Shandong Yantai✨ Traveling to Yantai✈, I thought the urban beauty was enchanting enough, but then I took another trip to Changdao🏝, and I was truly, truly, truly amazed again😭 🌅The sunset at Jiuzhang Cliff is simply breathtaking❗ The steep and rugged cliffs are the unique landforms created by thousands of years of wind🌬 and sea erosion. Climbing high and looking far, the sunset slowly sinks into the sea, and the sea water🌊 turns golden under the reflection of the sunlight, shimmering with waves. Every stone🪨 seems to be draped in golden gauze, and everything in front of me is dreamily beautiful😭 A lighthouse stands on the cliff top, and you can also sit beside the lighthouse, quietly enjoying the orange sea🍊 under the sunset, immersing yourself in it, countless movie scenes flash through your mind🎬 During the day, wander around the island at will, with changing scenery at every step. The hillside by the sea covered with little yellow flowers🌼, the jelly-like clear gradient sea water🌊... It really fulfills all my beautiful imaginations of the island❗ 📍Changdao, Yantai, it's really worth the trip! ✨Take a boat at Pengchang Port, the duration is about 1h ✨Recommended travel time is two days and one night Day1⃣ Noon on the island ➡ Wangfu Reef ➡ Jiuzhang Cliff (sunset) ➡ Half Moon Bay Day2⃣ The boundary line between the Yellow Sea and the Bohai Sea ➡ Fengshan ➡ Forest🌲Sea ✨Be sure to check the weather, on sunny days☀, the jelly sea at Wangfu Reef, the orange sea at Jiuzhang Cliff, are really amazing!

I don't want to go home after coming here!!! It's too beautiful!!

This season, Long Island is really very beautiful! Without the hustle and bustle of tourists, it has returned to its quiet niche. It's been ten years since I first came to Long Island, and although it has changed a lot, it still can't hide the original beauty of nature~ The sea here is incredibly clean, the spherical stone beaches are beautiful, and the sunset at dusk is even more romantic💕

There are really a lot of spherical rocks on the island, so round, so smooth, so beautiful, and in many colors, shining under the lapping of the sea water. Changdao, an island with an exotic charm🌴.

Yantai, Shandong to Changdao. 📍 Little trips: Ferry ticket 45 yuan, entrance ticket 56 yuan, bus 5 yuan per stop Changdao, a cluster of islands at the junction of the Bohai Sea and the Yellow Sea. To the west of Penglai Pavilion, there is a ferry terminal. It's not a ferry or a cruise ship, but a proper transport ferry. To put it this way, you need to enter the station, buy a ticket, and wait for the ship. After boarding, you take your assigned seat, just like on a train or plane. The ship departs from Penglai and makes several stops, with a service every 10 minutes. The first stop is Changdao, which takes about forty minutes. The standard fare is 45 yuan per person, and the premium fare is 60 yuan per person, which is probably equivalent to a first-class seat on a train. If you want to merge with the sea and sky, you can choose to pay extra to upgrade your cabin, moving up to the top deck above the standard cabins. Here, not only can you feed seagulls, but you can also let the sea breeze slap your cheeks. Changdao used to be a county, but later merged with Penglai to become a district of Yantai. The island has indigenous residents, and cars can be transported back and forth between Changdao and Penglai, but it seems that vehicles from outside are not allowed on the island. Changdao is also known as Changshan Island, divided into north and south parts. North Changshan Island has Jiuzhang Cliff and Moon Bay, while South Changshan Island has Xianjingyuan, Fengshan Forest Sea, and the boundary line between the Yellow Sea and the Bohai Sea, which is said to be more clearly visible here. The island's bus service costs 5 yuan per person per trip, and it goes to any scenic spot. If you get off, it costs 5 yuan; if you don't get off and just take a round trip around the island, it's still 5 yuan; if you get off by mistake and have to get back on, it's another 5 yuan. You can buy a card for the bus, 20 yuan for 4 trips, still 5 yuan each; if you use mobile payment, it's also 5 yuan per person per trip. In short, it's always 5 yuan, straightforward and inflexible. The ferry terminal is on South Changshan Island. Take the bus over the Lianhai Bridge to Jiuzhang Cliff first. As a 4A-level tourist area, Jiuzhang Cliff contributes 3.5A. Jiuzhang Cliff, with a height of nine Zhang, equivalent to about thirty meters, is officially taller than thirty meters. The entrance ticket costs 56 yuan, including both Jiuzhang Cliff and Moon Bay. Jiuzhang Cliff faces the sea, and unlike other places with sandy beaches, this place has a pebble beach, which seems to have been recently renovated. Following the wooden path, you will reach the engraved stele of Jiuzhang Cliff. There are two paths to choose from: one goes up the mountain, as there must be a mountain next to the cliff, with some local cultural attractions, though some may seem contrived; the other path leads to the seaside through the stone road, mainly composed of quartzite, with large, evenly cut slabs as if chopped by knives and axes. It is said to have formed from ancient crustal movements and mountain uplifts, which may be hard to understand, but you can choose to believe it. Walking along the undulating stone beach, with the sea breeze blowing and feeding the seabirds, watching the marine life grow freely below, one's mood becomes tranquil. The closest scenic spot to Jiuzhang Cliff is Moon Bay, which is a half-hour walk away or a few minutes by the scenic area's sightseeing car for 20 yuan. The island's bus still costs 5 yuan to get there. From the bus stop to the entrance of Moon Bay is less than ten minutes. After entering, you'll realize that if it weren't for the 56 yuan combined ticket, there would be no need to come here from Jiuzhang Cliff just to see a very simple seaside. After pausing for a minute, I decided to return. On the way back, I saw the seal pool, which was somewhat interesting. For 10 yuan a pack of feed, you can feed the seals and watch them clap, clap, clap. Taking the ferry back to Penglai, I vaguely remembered that there was a sculpture of the Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea in the city years ago and wanted to see it, but I didn't know where it was, so I asked a passerby. The reply was that it had been demolished, and now you can only see it in the paid Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea scenic area. Doubtful, I headed towards the hotel, passing by Penglai Cultural Square, where the sculpture stood prominently, the earliest Penglai Pavilion scenic area. It seems that the passerby was also from out of town, and one should not take their word for it. Practice is the sole criterion for testing truth.

If you like feeding seagulls, you can buy some sausages in advance, and feed them while the boat is moving, which is really fun😄 - 2⃣About tickets🎫 Long Island is divided into the South Line: Fengshan Forest Sea, Xianjingyuan💰79 North Line: Crescent Bay and Jiuzhang Cliff, Xianjingyuan💰79 Full line ticket price💰129 - 3⃣About the itinerary ✨One-day trip: If you only have one day and take the boat to the island in the morning, you can visit both the south and north islands, though it will be a bit rushed. First, go to Fengshan Forest Sea, and in the afternoon, visit Crescent Bay and Jiuzhang Cliff to watch the sunset🌄 and the lighthouse. If you arrive on the island around noon, it's recommended to only visit the north line, Crescent Bay, and Jiuzhang Cliff. - ✨Two-day trip: We played on Long Island for two days and it was very comfortable😌. On the first day, we took the morning boat to the island, checked into a fisherman's house, which you should book in advance as they will pick you up at the terminal. After eating seafood🦞 and taking a nap, we went straight to Crescent Bay and then to Jiuzhang Cliff to make sure to capture the sunset and the lighthouse in photos, it's so beautiful~ - 4⃣About attractions 🚣🏻Crescent Bay🌙 has a beach🏖 with colorful pebbles, and you can swim in the summer. 🚣🏻Jiuzhang Cliff was formed by geological movements thousands of years ago, and the natural cliff scenery is very beautiful. You must watch the sunset🌄 and the lighthouse here! The two attractions are close to each other, so it's recommended to visit them together. 🚣🏻Fengshan Forest Sea Scenic Area allows you to overlook Long Island and the boundary line between the Yellow Sea and the Bohai Sea at Changshan Tail. On clear days, the boundary line between the two seas is very distinct, and you can experience the feeling of 'one foot in two seas, ears listening to the double waves'. Additionally, there's a wooden walkway in the back sea of the scenic area where you can also leisurely catch seafood. This area is quite large, so it's recommended to take an electric cart to tour the entire area, ticket price💰45, especially for the elderly and children. - 5⃣About accommodation, dining, and island transportation Accommodations are mainly local fisherman's houses as there are few hotels with limited conditions. It's recommended to stay in a fisherman's house on the south island, which are all very clean and cozy; we stayed in a two-story villa🏠. Dining is, of course, mainly fisherman's meals and a variety of seafood. It's advised to ask around and not get overcharged; we mostly ate delicious seafood feasts at the fisherman's house where we stayed✌. Regarding island transportation, outside vehicles are not allowed❎ to enter the island. There are shuttle buses between scenic spots and the terminal, 20 per person, and you can ride as much as you like. Alternatively, you can call a Didi on the island, though it might be difficult to hail in some places. There are also shared bicycles🚴‍♀ available for rent. Due to word limit, if there are any unclear questions, feel free to ask me anytime. I hope to be of help to everyone😃

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.
