Guidelines for a self-driving tour of thousands of miles of mountains and seas

Weihai is a famous coastal city, a resort and paradise that travelers yearn for. A large number of tourists go on self-driving tours every day. Li Qian Mountain and Sea Self-driving Tour Highway is also a popular self-driving tour route in recent years, which is very suitable for young people to travel and play.

While driving in Weihai, I discovered a newly built "Thousand Miles of Mountains and Seas Self-Driving Tourist Highway", which I highly recommend to you. This is a road where mountains and sea meet, full of surprises. From Weihai to Rongcheng, passing by Quge Yandun Mountain, we encountered a large salt field. The first stop was amazing.

This is the real earth tone eye shadow! These colors are so beautiful. When I first saw a salt pan like this, I was amazed at how the colors were formed.

June to August every year is the peak season for sun salt, and it is also a critical period for determining the output of sun salt. This is the ancient art of drying salt. Evaporation, brine conditioning, and crystallization require different steps and times to produce different colors.

Continue to drive forward and you will arrive at the Xiaowu Team Baohai Station in Rongcheng, Weihai. Because I liked it so much, I decided to stay here that night. I recommended a caravan camp by the sea where you can sleep on the sea.

Golden Beach has a reservation feeling. A big windmill and a peaceful sea, is this the peaceful vacation you want? And the temperature is comfortable, no need to turn on the air conditioner.

The RVs in this seaside RV campground are all oversized. An RV has two bedrooms and a living room, making it perfect for families or friends traveling together.

And each caravan has a small garden, where you can drink tea and listen to the sea, watch the stars from the caravan bed at night, and watch the sunrise on the seaside from the caravan window in the morning.

The restaurant at Xiaodui Baohai Station is also great, with all kinds of seafood cooked to perfection. The pastries made in Weihai, Shandong are really delicious. I love this thousand-layer cake, it is super fragrant.

I spent the whole day at the Xiaowu Brigade Baohai Post, staring at the sea in a daze.

At low tide in the evening, I went to sea for the first time in my life. The reef is submerged during the day. I found sea cucumbers, sea urchins and small conches. What a surprise. If possible, wear long rain boots. My upstream shoes were too short and easily scratched by rocks.

The harvest from the journey to the sea is taken to the one-stop restaurant and processed in the kitchen. In the end, I ate so much sea urchin with sea urchin. At sunset, I drove to the nearby Xixiakou fishing base, got on a boat and went fishing in the sea.

It didn’t take long for the friends to catch grouper and crow fish. Although I gained nothing, I watched a beautiful sunset over the sea, a perfect day!

By the way, Xiaowudui Baohai Inn also has a super invincible infinity swimming pool. It's worth staying one night just for the swimming pool. The pool, sea and sky are all shades of blue. Unfortunately it was cloudy that day, so I plan to stay a night or two next time.

I woke up naturally the next day, took my suitcase and continued walking along Rongcheng Huanhai Road.

Not far from Xiaowudui Baohai Station, there is a wedding square. The white buildings on the beach are super beautiful, don’t miss it.

Rongcheng’s Peninsula Ring Road is so easy to photograph. There are many check-in points and you can stop and take photos. With mountains on one side and the sea on the other, it is worthy of being called the “Thousand Miles of Mountains and Seas Self-driving Tourist Highway”.

Near the Qingyutan Community, there is an online celebrity highway. The S-shaped curve on the seaside stretches like a long zipper, and there are very few cars. It’s really pleasant to drive on a road like this.

Weihai has the longest coastline in China and is very suitable for landing and self-driving. On this road, you can travel all over Weihai! Travel through the mountains and seas and encounter the most beautiful Weihai.

The 1,001-kilometer mountain-sea self-driving tourist road is enough to satisfy the yearning for freedom. Unfortunately, due to time constraints, we were unable to complete this trip. We will definitely come back next time.

The main line of the Qianshan Maritime Self-driving Tourist Highway is 501km in length, consisting of a 325km sea-ringing road and a 176km mountain-ringing road, with the first batch of 12 high-quality self-driving themed stations along the way.

There are 9 coastlines, 2 in the eastern mountainous area, and the last one in the central region.

Personally, I think the most important reference for choosing a self-driving road section is which station you like best, each stat
