This is really not Weihai, this is Dongdaihe with fewer people and lower expenses
Liaoning Huludao-Xingcheng 🏖️ Three Days and Two Nights Super Great Travel Guide 😜
Huludao is a relatively niche coastal city 🎈, located in the southwest of Northeast China, with a long history and excellent natural resources 👍! Xingcheng is right next door, very close. This time I stayed in Huludao and Xingcheng for three days and two nights, and was impressed by the beautiful scenery and affordable prices 😃. I just want to say, little island, I'll definitely come again next time 😎!
🗓 Itinerary:
Day1
📍 Xingcheng Seaside Scenic Area → Xingcheng Ancient City → Zhang Xueliang Hot Spring Villa → International Peace Plaza → Dongshan Night Market
💟 There are so many beaches in Huludao and Xingcheng, and they are all free 😜! On the first day, I stayed in Xingcheng. The attractions are close to each other, taxis are cheap, and you can visit many places in one day. Small cities are great 👏!
🍲 Recommended Dishes:
🐟 The seafood in Xingcheng is fresh and affordable. Steamed crabs and spicy fried razor clams are super delicious 😋.
🍜 Xingcheng's buckwheat noodles are chewy and worth trying.
Day2
📍 Longhuitou → Lingyun Morning Market → Red Beach → Lianshan Night Market → Xinggong Middle Street Night Market
💟 Watching the sunrise by the sea is a must. The sunrise at Longhuitou is stunning 😍, super spectacular!
💟 Lingyun Morning Market has everything, low prices, and the dried prawns are so delicious you can't stop eating them 😝!
💟 The Sea Art Museum at Red Beach is super artistic 🎨, highly recommended!
💟 Lianshan Night Market and Xinggong Middle Street Night Market may have fewer stalls in the off-season, and they don't feel as lively as Dongshan Night Market in Xingcheng.
Day3
📍 International Peace Plaza → Longwan Seaside → Wanghai Temple → Bikini Plaza → Hulugu Town
💟 The sunrise at International Peace Plaza is amazing, I love it 😘!
💟 Longwan Seaside is near International Peace Plaza, you can walk there.
💟 Wanghai Temple is a temple built by the sea. You need to climb a small hill to reach the temple, interesting 😃!
💟 The beach at Bikini Plaza is relatively ordinary.
💟 Hulugu Town is very interesting. I thought it was a commercialized artificial ancient town, but it turned out to be a very interesting folk culture park where you can learn about Guandong culture, and the snacks are super delicious 😜!
🎁【Souvenir Recommendations】
🦀 Dried seafood, convenient to carry and delicious.
📿 Local shell crafts.
🧳 Preparation Before Departure:
Essentials: Sunscreen 🧴, sun hat 👒, sunglasses 🕶️, mosquito repellent 🦟, Huoxiang Zhengqi water 💊.
📝 Tips:
1. The weather is hot, drink more water to prevent heatstroke 🥵.
2. The ultraviolet rays by the sea are strong, do a good job of sun protection to avoid sunburn 😎.
3. Although seafood is delicious, eat in moderation to prevent gastrointestinal discomfort 🤢.
4. Wear comfortable and breathable clothes and shoes for easy travel 👗👟.
I hope everyone can have a great time in Huludao and Xingcheng and gain lots of wonderful memories 😁!

College Student Special Forces - Dongdaihe Three-day Two-night Tour
I've heard about Dongdaihe, known as the little Sanya, for a long time and have always wanted to see the sea🌊. Now it's time to treat Dongdaihe well!
If you also want to visit Huludao Dongdaihe, then hurry up and book your stay🐎!
Transportation 1️⃣
Take the train🚆 from Beijing directly to Shanhaiguan, depart at noon and it takes about 3 and a half hours to get to Shanhaiguan, then a 20-minute taxi ride🚗 will get you to Dongdaihe, where you can immediately feel the cool breeze, very comfortable😌 (although the recent weather is still a bit chilly)
Itinerary
DAY 1️⃣
Kaisa Private Beachside🔖
Stay in Kaisa's cloud-end sea view room, the off-season price is not expensive, less than a hundred bucks, and the average cost is just fifty😌 Super deal🔥 The boss is warm-hearted, and the room is very clean!
Just a few minutes walk to the sea, every frame is picturesque, and there are many popular photo spots. Play by the seaside until midnight.
At night, people set off fireworks🎆 on the shore, super romantic, I also bought some to play with, truly deserving of being the closest fireworks place to Beijing🧨
DAY 2️⃣
The First Pass Under Heaven🔖
Early in the morning at four, go to the beach to pick up shells and conches🐚, super happy
Get up early, rush back from the sea and go back to sleep💤
Take a Didi🚗 to the nearby residential area to eat🍽️, then head to Shanhaiguan. It takes about 20 minutes by Kaisa Didi💨 to reach Shanhaiguan, and climb the starting point of the Great Wall - The First Pass Under Heaven🔥. Stroll around the ancient city, the old city walls, every casual photo is stunning
DAY 3️⃣
Happy Island🔖
Early in the morning at four, squat to watch the sunrise🌅, the sun rises from the coastline, the sea and sky blend into one, so beautiful it makes you cry
Come back to pack up the luggage🧳 and head to the next destination - Happy Island. There are discount tickets available recently. How can college students miss out on entertainment when going out to play? Played until the afternoon and was already exhausted
Go to the shopping mall near Shanhaiguan station🏬 to wander, eat and drink, and then take the high-speed train🚄 back to Beijing
Dongdaihe in Huludao is really suitable for college students to relax,
Looking at the sea🌊, the whole person's heart❤️ calms down, a place worth visiting several times🉑
In the end📝, the seaside wind blows fiercely, I wore a dress and a knitted sweater, and was frozen into a 🐶, everyone must remember to bring a coat🧥
Girls, remember to bring hair ties, tie your hair when not taking photos, otherwise the wind will make your hair super messy, sunscreen, wearing sunglasses🕶️ are all essentials
That's all, it's not easy to organize, please give a thumbs up👍 and I wish everyone a pleasant trip in advance!

A lesser-known beach with few people and great photo opportunities near Beijing | Dongdaihe
Whenever we don't know where to go during holidays, we head to Dongdaihe, where there are few people and great photo ops, and the overall value for money is high, making it very suitable for a few days of peaceful leisure!
🚄 2.5h by high-speed train to Shanhaiguan, then a 20-minute drive
🚗 4 hours by car, exit at Mengjiangkou
🌟 What to do in Dongdaihe?
Dongdaihe has four distinctive beaches:
✅ Shanhai Tongwan: Blue Moon Beach, pictures 1️⃣2️⃣3️⃣, the beach has a lighthouse and you can take a cruise 🛳️; across the road from the beach, the new Bear Forest Park has opened, pictures 8️⃣-1️⃣2️⃣; there's also a popular mini train in Tongwan community (pictures 10 and 13) you can ride!
✅ Kaisa: The beach has many landmark decorations, suitable for taking photos as souvenirs, and it's more crowded in the summer peak season, picture 4️⃣, and last year a new sky ladder was added
✅ Yintai Mercury Beach: pictures 5️⃣6️⃣7️⃣, there's a seaside RV campsite ⛺️, very distinctive, and you can wade in the waves! The coastlines of Tongwan and Kaisa have a large height difference and are not suitable for wading!
✅ Zhimao Bay Jieshi National Marine Park, a good place to go to the sea in Dongdaihe, also more crowded during the summer peak, with beach horse riding activities!
🏨 Accommodation: Recommend the Shanhai Tongwan and Kaisa areas, these two communities are more developed here, with surrounding dining and supermarkets being more mature and of better quality!

I've been to Beidaihe and Nandaihe many times, but this is my first time in Dongdaihe!
There is a river called Daihe in Qinhuangdao, Hebei. The area north of Daihe is called Beidaihe, and the area south of Daihe is called Nandaihe. After leaving Shanhaiguan, it is the territory of Suizhong, Huludao, Liaoning, now known as Dongdaihe.
Dongdaihe has the best quality beach in the Bohai Sea, with clear water, fine and gentle sand, and a coastline of 31 kilometers. This is the largest forest oxygen bar in the Bohai Sea, with clear and pleasant air, very suitable for summer vacation and leisurely retirement.
Tracing back to its roots, as early as the Qin and Han dynasties, this place was a royal ocean. 2000 years ago, this was where the emperor watched the sea. There are the ruins of the Qin Shihuang's palace, and the ruins of Cao Cao's view of the sea. It can be described as backed by mountains and facing the sea, with excellent feng shui.
Dongdaihe has a full range of hotel, apartment and resort facilities, suitable for both short and long stays, and the prices are affordable. Here, you can enjoy seafood freedom!
Warm reminder: Dongdaihe has a well-connected transportation network, with high-speed rail, highways, and national roads. It is 298 kilometers from Beijing, 300 kilometers from Shenyang, about 3 hours by car, and 105 kilometers from Qinhuangdao Beidaihe International Airport, making it very convenient to get in and out.
