Super surprise! Not far from the beach, Chaoyang Street is very close, the old is really old, and the living old street with a strong life atmosphere is preserved. It is suitable to punch in and take pictures to visit traditional houses. I like the old street with the elderly stalls. It is worth visiting ~.
The second stop of the summer vacation trip in 2023, Yantai City, Shandong Province. A city, half of Yantai history! The location in the city is good, just in the center of Yantai, next to Wanda Plaza, the whole block is a historical legacy product plus a day old block built by the newly built building. The block has many special Yantai snacks and Yantai's intangible culture. It is too suny during the day. It is recommended to visit at night.
In the city, an ancient street in Yantai is of course worse than the ancient town in the south of the Yangtze River, but it can be seen that it is also an ancient street tourist attraction built with heart. There are still a lot of people in the tourist season. The apple juice in this house is quite delicious.
The city is the root vein of Yantai city, recording the memory and homesickness of Yantai people, inheriting the history of Yantai and the genes. The renovated Suocheng District integrates historical and cultural protection and display, tourism, leisure and entertainment, residential business and trade functions, adding new charm to Yantai.
Yantai city has a history of more than 600 years, is the earliest birthplace of Yantai city, preserving a large number of traditional houses in the Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China. Here is the purest old Yantai people, although you can't see the glory of the past, but here is the time carving left Yantai people the best gift.
This is the origin of Yantai City. In the middle of the Ming Dynasty, in order to fight the squat, the court sent officers and troops to station here, and slowly formed today's Yantai. Most of the houses are Qing Dynasty buildings, but they have been more than 100 years old. Now it has been changed to become a historical and cultural tourist attraction in Yantai.
