[2025 Yantai Attraction] Travel Guide for Dongshan Trestle (Updated Apr)

🌊This time, I traveled to Yantai and the Oriental Ocean Moon Bay Hotel I stayed in really gave me too many surprises. I must share it with everyone! 📍[Excellent location] The hotel is located in the golden area of Yantai, close to Moon Bay, and a few minutes' walk to the beach. Pushing open the window in the early morning, the fresh sea breeze is mixed with a faint fishy smell, and the waves not far away gently beat the coast, playing a beautiful morning song. There are many surrounding attractions, and the trestle and Yantai Mountain Scenic Area are just a stone's throw away. It is super convenient whether you are strolling along the beach to enjoy the sunset or visiting historical and cultural attractions. The transportation is also very convenient. It is not far from Yantai Station and Yantai Bus Station, making it easy to get there by car or public transportation. 💁‍♀️[Attentive service] From the moment you check-in at the front desk, you can feel the enthusiasm of the hotel staff. The procedures are handled quickly, and they also thoughtfully introduced me to the hotel's facilities and fun places nearby. During my stay, the room service responded super quickly. Once I accidentally left something in the restaurant, and the staff quickly helped me find it and delivered it to my room. When cleaning the room every day, they also placed items according to my habits, and the details showed their care. The hotel also provides free travel consultation services, which helped me plan a travel route that avoided peak crowds, making my Yantai trip smoother. 💰[Super high cost performance] Such a hotel with an excellent location and service is very affordable. Compared with hotels of the same grade in the same location, its cost performance can be said to be super high. The rooms are spacious and bright, with complete facilities, and the bedding is soft and comfortable, making your stay super comfortable. The hotel's buffet breakfast is also very rich, with a wide variety of dishes to meet the needs of different people, which saves another expense for the trip. This stay at Oriental Ocean Moon Bay Hotel added a lot of color to my trip to Yantai. If you are also planning to travel to Yantai, I highly recommend this hotel. I believe you will fall in love with it too!

Weihai, Yantai and Rongcheng are the daily routes for many people traveling to the area north of Shandong. As a photographer, I naturally would not give up this route during the Spring Festival holiday! And under the biting cold wind, my heart was constantly intersecting with the sea water hitting the shore! P2-P3: Blueways, a famous scenic spot in Weihai. It is far from the city center, so it is recommended to rent a car. The taxi fare is between 60-80 RMB. P4-P5: The rocks beside Weihai Torch 8th Street and the seagulls flying in the sky. With a tripod, the scene of waves hitting the rocks is spectacular and attractive. Seagulls are naturally a standard feature here. If you want to take close-ups of seagulls, a telephoto lens of 400mm or above or a 70-200 plus a teleconverter is recommended. P6: After leaving Torch 8th Street, walk north towards the pier. At this time, the golden light of sunset arrives quietly. Of course, due to the heavy clouds in the sky, the effect is not the best. P7-P10: Shot at Yangma Island in Yantai. In winter, Yangma Island has few visitors. As long as you can withstand the wind and waves at the seaside and take cold-proof measures, it will definitely be a great place to take photos! Note: You can choose to rent an electric bicycle or tricycle on Yangma Island. The price is cheaper in the off-season and helps improve travel efficiency!

Yantai Pier, located in the eastern part of Zhifu District. The pier is 624 meters long and 10 meters wide, consisting of an approach bridge, a yacht marina, the main body of the pier, and the Yellow Sea Pearl, making it the longest sea pier in China. The beautiful Yantai Pier is a great place to visit for seaside tourism in Yantai. Basic Information The pier is a small bridge that extends into the sea, and at the end of the bridge is a Chinese-style pavilion looking out to the sea. The pier has the charm of a Jiangnan girl who seems to be from another side of the water. She is like a fairy who is detached from the mundane world, quietly exuding an ethereal quality; without the grandeur of carved beams and painted rafters; without the dazzling decoration; but she is subtle and serene, like an elegant and pure young girl. Under the moonlight, the pier has a unique charm, with thin mist rising from the sea surface, spreading out softly, making the pier look like a bride draped in a white veil, shy and tranquil. The gentle sea breeze blows her dress, like a dancing fairy; under the faint moonlight, from a distance, the pier stands tall and graceful. The sea surface illuminated by the autumn moon shines with a silvery glow, with no passing boats; no noise from tourists, and even the seagulls have flown away. Only the waves gently lap against the shore, only the sound of fish leaping out of the water. The sea is as quiet and peaceful as the pier itself. The soft sea breeze brings coolness and comfort.

#timetotravel 📍 Binhai North Road, Zhifu, Yantai, Shandong China 🗓️ 2020, 2021 🚖 🚌 Getting There:During the pandemic, I'd hop on a bus or take a Didi to reach Dongshan Trestle Bridge. 😷 Amid the pandemic's challenges, my youthful spirit found refuge at Dongshan Trestle Bridge. Its appeal extended beyond the bridge itself – it's conveniently close to Yueliangwan and Eastern Fort Park, just a short walk away. 🤩 The transparent deck offers a unique perspective, and at the bridge's end, a pavilion entices with souvenir treasures. 🌉 As day turned to night, the view became pure enchantment. Dongshan Trestle Bridge was my haven during the pandemic, and my youthful energy made every visit unforgettable. #chinalife #yantai #memories
