Introducing Wēihǎi
About 60km east of Yāntái, the booming port city of Wēihǎi was the site of China’s most humiliating naval defeat, when the entire Qing navy (armed with advanced European warships) was annihilated by a smaller Japanese fleet in 1895.

The British hung onto a concession here until 1930, though little remains to remind you of its colonial heritage.
Today visitors are drawn to Wēihǎi for its golden coastline, Liugong Island and to catch passenger ferries to South Korea.
