Changdao

Changdao (长岛) (or “Chang Islands”) County, a county under the jurisdiction of Yantai (烟台) City, was so named because of the Changshan Islands (长山岛) that lie within its borders. Changdao lies between Jiaodong (胶东) Peninsula and Liaodong (辽东) Peninsula, where the Yellow Sea and Bohai Sea meet. Its main tourist attractions include Jiuzhang (九丈) Cliff, Half Moon Bay National Geological Park, the ancient temples on Temple Island, Xianjingyuan (仙境源) Folk Customs Park, Linhai Fengshan (林海烽山) National Forest Park, Temple Island's Mazu (妈祖) Cultural Park, and the Beizhuang (北庄) Ruins. Beach-combing is another favorite activity here.
