Attractions:

Cheng Shan Tou

Cheng Shan Tou is located at the easternmost tip of China, a place where you can witness the sunrise over the sea. Since ancient times, it has been hailed as "the place where the sun rises" and is known as "China's Cape of Good Hope." Here, the towering cliffs and roaring waves create a majestic and awe-inspiring scene, with the sunrise spectacle being truly unparalleled in the world. Standing on Cheng Shan Tou and gazing at the vast ocean, one can't help but feel a sense of the endless horizon.

Yandunjiao

This is a harmonious fishing village in Rongcheng where humans and nature coexist peacefully. The village is named Yandunjiao after the ancient beacon tower (also called smoke mound) built on Mount Gu to the east for enemy warnings. Every winter, hundreds of whooper swans migrate to the bay south of the village, allowing close interactions between visitors and these majestic birds, earning the small fishing village the nickname "Swan Village." Located in Rongcheng City, Shandong Province at the eastern tip of the Shandong Peninsula, Yandunjiao boasts a thousand-mile coastline dotted with bays and capes, abundant marine resources including fish, shrimp, shellfish, and algae, and enjoys a warm temperate monsoon humid climate. The Rongcheng Whooper Swan Nature Reserve has been established here. From November to April each year, tens of thousands of whooper swans from Siberia winter in the numerous lakes and bays along Rongcheng's coast, collectively known as the Rongcheng Swan Lakes. Yandunjiao Swan Lake is one of them.
