If you can only go to one place in summer,

then I will only recommend this super niche seaside resort town.

It was rated as "one of the eight most beautiful coasts in China" by chinese national geography.

It is surrounded by the sea on three sides, with a coastline of 5 kilometers. The water is clear and the sand is white, and it does not lose Ma Dai.

Its average temperature in summer is only 25℃, making it the most ideal summer seaside city in Shandong.

It has a fairytale seaweed house, and it gives you the illusion of being in New Zealand.

It is also a low-key food capital, where seafood is eaten by the basin.

here it is: Shandong Rongcheng!

Rongcheng is located at the easternmost tip of Shandong Peninsula, where the sun rises the earliest in Chinese mainland, and has been rated as a livable city in the world for many years.

It is surrounded by the sea on three sides, and the whole city gives people the feeling that the sea is in the city. Every scenery here makes people sincerely envy the people who live here every day.

Although it is in the same sea as Qingdao, few people put it on the travel list.

it's a kind of local residence with unique kelp grass on the roof, which is very distinctive.
