Weihai is back, really not recommended to go from July to September because it's just too amazing

Girls, listen carefully! Weihai is addictive! 🌊 The glass sea paired with the pebble beach is breathtaking enough, but in April, the streets are filled with cherry blossom rain and pink sunsets for a double hit, and prices are still stuck a decade ago… Once you come, you'll go crazy wanting to quit your job and become a fisherwoman! 😭 📍 Location: The easternmost tip of the Shandong Peninsula (4-hour high-speed train from Beijing!) 📆 Divine timing: April for cherry blossoms + September for the sea opening (avoid the boiling July and August!) 💰 Cost shock: 3 days 2 nights, about 600 RMB per person! Seafood served by the basin to show off! ⚠️ Five major shock points | Painful yet joyful ⚠️ 💣 Shock 1️⃣: Wild sea views so beautiful they cause speechlessness! Cat Head Mountain No. 2 Viewing Platform! Transparent seawater crashes against black reefs 🌊 Waves curl into rainbows that will make you cry! Navigate to "Jianggu Zui" to unlock the pink-purple sunset cliff; standing there makes you feel like a Korean drama heroine! (📸 Secret photo spot: 4 PM backlight for hair shots like a divine girl) 💣 Shock 2️⃣: Cherry blossom railway track extends into the sea?! Rush to "Huanhai Road" in April! The entire coastal road bursts into a cherry blossom tunnel 🌸 Pink petals form wave shapes, and riding an electric scooter stirs up flower waves… Bring tissues! It's so beautiful it will make you cry! (🛵 Scooter rental tip: Half Moon Bay 30 RMB/day, deposit must photograph vehicle damage!) 💣 Shock 3️⃣: Woken up by the smell of seafood at 3 AM! Gumo Morning Market opens at 5:30! Palm-sized fresh oysters 5 RMB each 🦪 Live abalone that drips water, 10 RMB for three! Even crazier, after buying, squat at the dock to eat; local aunties teach you to dip in horseradish and swallow raw… So fresh it feels like your head is flying! (💸 Hidden price: mantis shrimp 20 RMB per jin, say the code "with roe") 💣 Shock 4️⃣: Thatched houses are actually an unbeatable photo spot?! 3 km west of Naxianghai! "Jinshi Bay Art District" seaweed houses look like Hobbit huts 🧙‍♀️ Green mossy roofs + mint blue seawater = fairy tale come to life! Even more amazing is walking to the shipwreck Bruevis at low tide; the rusty iron giant ship with pink misty sunset is breathtaking! (🚫 Avoid the trap: don’t buy tickets! Outside is free) 💣 Shock 5️⃣: Divine seagulls will steal your fries! At the "Sea Lion Island" dock, don’t take the boat! Free strategy: bring a small bucket of fish and shrimp and squat on the beach 🕊️ Tens of thousands of black-tailed gulls dive to snatch food! Holding fries and taking photos, you’ll be chased for ten blocks (📹 Shoot slow motion for the iconic wing-flapping face slap scene) ------ 🔥 Pitfall warnings | Locals secretly say 🔥 ✅ Don’t go to Torch 8th Street at noon! At 6:30 AM, you can have the slope all to yourself (navigate to "SOHO Apartment" for a shortcut) ✅ For Korean food, rush to "Zhen Li Wei"! Pork spine hotpot + seafood pancake, about 40 RMB per person, you’ll be full to the point of leaning on the wall (avoid the popular Oulefang store) ✅ Rush to gather seaweed and salt! Xiaoshi Island paid area is a no-go! Go free to "Xiaoyao Bay" to dig razor clams, one dig fills a sack ✅ Must wear holey shoes! Walking barefoot on pebble beaches hurts so much you’ll question life 📸 Hidden gem photo spots | Crazy for social media ✔️ End of Beishan Road! T-junction facing the sea level (navigate to "Experimental School North Campus," the bus ride is super romantic) ✔️ Liugong Island cable car! Shoot battleships and white seagulls in the same frame mid-air (best light at 3 PM) ✔️ Jin Beach Bathing Area! Shoot the "Sky Mirror" reflection at low tide in the evening (need to squat and place your phone close to the water surface) 💬 Acute happiness attack diary: Wrapped in a coat at 3 AM watching the transparent glowing sea ✨ Being chased by waves on the pebble beach 🏃‍♀️ Squatting at the fishing dock munching on three creamy sea urchins for 10 RMB… Do Weihai people even understand? This kind of raw, wild romance is ten thousand times more powerful than any refined trendy spot! 🌋 ‼️ Ultimate pain: flipping through the photo album on the return high-speed train— Looking at windmill seas in cherry blossom rain, rainbows floating on the glass sea, broken light leaking through grass roofs… Checking Weihai housing prices madly and being mocked by the attendant: "Another girl trapped by the sea" 😭
