Beidaihe Scenic Spot

Beidaihe is a famous and scenic summer resort located at the southwest of Qinhuangdao. An alluring coastal village with a small- town ambience, it provides a welcome break from city life.

The Beidaihe Beach Resort stretches 10km east to west from the
Yinjiao Pavilion to the mouth of the Daihe. This naturally pristine beach, like the rest of the Beidaihe Beach Resort, attracts millions of visitors each summer.

The surrounding environment is beautiful. The beach lies at the foot of Mt. Lianfeng, which has two peaks covered by abundant green pines and cypresses. It is full of lush vegetation and large caves and has been marked with pavilions, footpaths and winding bridges. Looking down from Wanghaiting (Seaside Pavilion) at the top of the hill, one can see the misty sea in all its majesty. Moreover, Beidaihe is one of nine famous sunrise spots in China. The Yinjiao Pavilion, on the northwest beach of Beidaihe, is the best place to watch the sunrise.

At the eastern base of Mt. Lianfeng is a park called Lianhuashi (Lotus Stone), so named because of the several huge rocks standing upright in the shape of a lotus flower. The park also houses the Guanyin Temple and the Zhujia Grave in the east.

The tiger rock formation is composed of several huge rocks protruding from the sea like crouching tigers. Standing on one of these rocks, you can take in the loud waves crashing on the rocks while enjoying the vast view of the wide ocean.

The Yinjiao Stone in the east is one of the most popular attractions of Beidaihe. It is a solitary rock with a unique shape of an eagle perched upon it.
