Rizhao Travel Guide Rizhao Detailed Maritime Travel Guide

Rizhao is a coastal city and a famous tourist destination. The water quality of the beach here is super strong, crystal clear, and the temperature is very comfortable. It’s also a great place to watch the sunrise. The following is a super detailed guide for Rizhao travel.

Rizhao, located in the southeast of Shandong Province, is a port city in Shandong Province. It is named because the sun shines first. It has more than 60 kilometers of golden beaches from north to south along the coast, with a beautiful environment and excellent air quality. Taking advantage of the vacation, I decided to take a trip to Rizhao. Since there is only one train from Beijing to Rizhao every day, and it is the peak tourist season, the ticket supply is very tight. So I decided to go to Jinan first, and then transfer to Rizhao.

I checked some guides before and found that Rizhao’s coastline is very long and beautiful. The main seaside attractions from south to north are Lighthouse Scenic Area, Wanpingkou Scenic Area, Taigong Island, Shanhaitian Bathhouse, Third Bathhouse, Taohua Island, Lijiatai Qianhai Park, Forest Park, etc. In addition, there are mountain scenery such as Wulian Mountain, Fulai Mountain, Heshan Mountain, and Zhulong Mountain. Other attractions include Flower Fairy, Bamboo Cave Heaven, Longmen Valley, etc. I chose some attractions that interested me to visit.

[Items you need to bring before departure]

1. Personal documents

Nowadays, real-name authentication is required whether you go out to buy air tickets, train tickets, or bus tickets. The hotel also requires ID. So the importance of personal documents goes without saying. So be sure to bring your ID card, passport (visa) and various air tickets. If you lose your ticket, it will be troublesome to replace it temporarily, or even delay your trip.

2. Essential Medicines

When traveling, accidents, sudden illness or discomfort are inevitable. So you need to bring some commonly used medicines, such as band-aids, Yunnan Baiyao, cold medicine, and summer heatstroke prevention medicine. Insect repellent, scented oil and tampons. If you are bitten by a mosquito in the wild, it will be really painful.

3. Travel cosmetics

Toothpaste, toothbrush, retractable mouthwash cup, quick-drying towel, shampoo, conditioner (small tin bag to try on), shower gel, facial cleanser , hanging toiletry bag. Although the hotel has everything, it is more hygienic to take care of it yourself. The toiletries are mini-sized and do not take up much space.

4. Awnings, sunglasses, flashlights and communication equipment.

This kind of thing is actually some indispensable little things. In summer, you must bring an umbrella. If you don’t bring a parasol and are exposed to the sun for a long time, you can easily suffer from heat stroke and dehydration. People with weak constitutions can also experience unbearable headaches after exposure to the sun. Sunglasses protect your eyes. The flashlight can illuminate at night and can also be used as a signal for help when in danger. I don’t need to explain more about communication equipment. Who in this society cannot do without mobile phones? No mobile phone means no sense of security.

5. Food and water

When traveling abroad, some scenic spots are far away and there is no supply of food and water. On the road, you may have to catch a bus or a bus, and there is no time to eat. Therefore, you need to bring some beef jerky, biscuits and other high-calorie foods in case of emergencies, otherwise you may faint while traveling hungry.

Rizhao Coastal National Forest Park

The Forest Park and Wujiatai Beach are known as the fourth bathing beach in Rizhao. Two-thirds belong to the Forest Park (charges apply), and one-third belongs to Wujiatai Village (free). This time we stayed at Yujiale in Wujiatai Village. The sand here is the most delicate and the beach is large and gentle. It is the most suitable beach for swimming. The recreational facilities in the Forest Park are relatively complete. The entrance fee is 60 yuan. We asked the fisherman to buy it for us, which saves more than ten yuan per person.

The legendary golden beach was finally seen, with complete recreational facilities.

Look, the big brother buried in the sand is cheerful, and there are smiling and childlike onlookers beside him.

Take a horse-drawn carriage to visit the scenic spots, da da da.

There are bicycles. Several people can rent one. If you drive, you can drive in. There is a dedicated parking lot.

The scenery in the park is picturesque, so hurry up and take pictures.

The lotus flowers are in full bloom.

Animal performances and acrobatic performances

Lighthouse Scenic Area

The lighthouse is located in the urban area and is open to the public for free. Parking here is very convenient. But there are few beaches and many rocks, making it suitable for catching the sea. The most famous is the lighthouse itself.

The biggest impression that sunshine gives me is cleanliness. Although there are many people, there are very few people littering.

The father and son played in the sand, while the mother took photos, and the whole family had a great time.

The sea and beautiful women are really a beautiful scenery.

The children who are having fun, their daddies are right next to them. I would like to remind all parents with children to take care of their babies and play in the water under the supervision of adults.

For a couple, the sea is really a romantic place.

Catch the rising tide of the sea. The waves are really exciting, shocking and beautiful. When the rocks are exposed after falling into the sea, you can go out to fish, catch small fish, shrimps, crabs, and collect shells. There may be unexpected gains.

A beautiful woman who was frightened by the sudden waves, haha.

The colorful aunts seem to be from a tour group. They really match the sea. They smile like children and have a young mentality.

Rizhao World Cup Base

To the north of the lighthouse is the World Sailing Base, which is connected together. Sailing competitions were held here, many athletes were trained, and many boats and cruise ships docked.

Experience tourists returning by boat.

There are also leisure fishing. Look at their harvest. Fishing is a pleasure.

Wankou Seaside Scenic Area

Wanpingkou is also in the urban area. It is the second bathing beach in Rizhao. There is a saying that when the sun comes, you must visit Wanpingkou. It is close to the World Sailing Base and the Lighthouse. Last year, it became a paid scenic spot with a ticket price of 60 yuan. The sand here is not as good as the sand in Forest Park.

As soon as you enter the scenic spot, you will see the landmark building, which means setting sail.

A must-have background for taking photos at Wanpingkou.

Free beach chairs

Water bikes

Small trains, you can visit scenic spots and the charges are not expensive.

We didn’t go into the strange ocean world. I heard there are a lot of animals in there. Tickets are 120 yuan.

I saw a lot of wedding photos in the wedding park.

Everyone else reminds me of the ends of the earth in Sanya.

We entered through Gate 1 and came out through Gate 4. It is really a big attraction. After staying in there for several hours, our legs were almost no longer our own.

Wujiatai Beach

[Watch the sunrise]

When you come to the beach, you must get up early to watch the sunrise. This will be a great memory. When I was a child, I read fairy tales and knew that the sun came out of the sea and set behind the mountains. I watched the sunrise over Mount Tai, but never saw the sun emerging from the sea full of waves and flowers. The sunrise time in summer is around 4:30-4:50. I need to get up early, usually at 4 o'clock, and go to the beach before 4:30. Don't let Father Sun wait for us, because he won't wait for you. If you have to struggle between sleeping in and watching the sunrise, I think nine times out of ten you're going to miss out. If the weather is bad, it's probably of no use. Check the weather forecast in advance.

The sunrise at Rizhao Beach is definitely no less than Mount Tai. The ocean gives birth to everything. When the sun rises slowly in the morning, it is like welcoming the arrival of new life and a beautiful beginning.

[Food]

Wujiatai Folk Tourism Resort

The seafood here is processed as "shrimp, crab and shellfish", with the original flavor being the main ingredient. The more common ones include Cargill, fish fillet, croaker, grouper, octopus, abalone, sea cucumber, golden shellfish, razor clam, oyster, scallop, Pipi shrimp, prawn, new prawn, etc. The fish is mostly "fishermen's braised" (fish steamed with braised seasoning), and it tastes absolutely amazing. It’s really a good choice for foodies like us. The seafood is what you like, the ingredients are the freshest, caught in the sea, and the taste of course depends on the customer's wishes. And the price is absolutely fair.

The most commendable thing is that the fisherman’s food is delicious and rich. If you want to eat seafood, the boss can go to the seafood market with you to choose. If you buy it, the fishermen will help you process it. Just wait and enjoy the delicious food.

Pipi shrimp, also known as shrimp shrimp in Rizhao, has tender and plump meat.

Hairtail, a deep-sea fish, can be fried or stewed, and is delicious.

Clams, the famous spicy fried clams, are cheap and delicious, but I prefer boiled clams, which maintain the original flavor of seafood and are also one of the most popular seafood

Big Crab, I don’t need to say more. Very tasty.

The clams are spicy, fried like Hunan cuisine, and very delicious. The clams are fried and the steamed crabs are delicious.

The scallops here come from the Yellow Sea. Their shells are rough and not brightly colored, but they taste absolutely delicious. They are definitely the shellfish of choice for foodies. At first, we asked the boss to make garlic for us. Later, our boss told us that generally fresh seafood does not need seasoning. Only those that have deteriorated, smelly or are not fresh can be seasoned to improve their freshness. Just like "Little Japan" is a master of eating seafood, they all eat it raw, just because the ingredients are high-quality and fresh. Good quality and low price.

[Accommodation]

Wujiataizihan Yujia

Accommodation is a big problem. I did some homework before going out. Due to various reasons, I finally decided to live in a fisherman's courtyard in Wujiatai Village, Zihan Yujiayuan. Meals are also cooked at his house. Wujiatai Village is only 10 kilometers away from the city. Take bus No. 8 opposite the train station to Wangjiazao, then transfer to bus No. 35, No. 36 or the tourist line.

I would like to remind everyone that there are many fishermen in Rizhao, some of whom are local fishermen and go out to sea to fish every day. Some fishermen are not local fishermen and cannot guarantee that all ingredients are fresh. The most important thing is never to listen to the customers on the roadside. The introduction is rich and the price is relatively low. Most of them are middlemen, rather than starting their own business. Some people once changed their minds and chose them because they wanted to be cheap. Ended up losing some money. In some places, we found that the environment was not as bad as the introduction, so we returned to the original fishermen's homes, which affected our itinerary. To be on the safe side and to make our trip enjoyable, please choose a regular Yujiale and don’t listen to other people’s low-price temptations and make my trip unpleasant.

The fisherman Zihan and his wife are both young. They have a beautiful daughter who likes to sing and dance.

When I asked, it turned out that there had just been a performance in the school.

This is a fisherman from Zihan in Wujiatai where we live. The boss and his wife are warm and kind, and the yard is clean and bright. When we came here it felt like home. The courtyard in the middle is the restaurant.

The room has two beds, one large and one small, which can sleep three people. Very suitable for family outings. It has air conditioning, TV, separate bathroom, 24-hour hot water and free wifi.

Travel experience

Travel is a very beautiful thing. Enjoying delicious food and understanding local customs can make people more knowledgeable and broaden their mood. Although I haven’t been to many scenic spots yet, I have already fallen in love with Rizhao, a clean and beautiful seaside town. When the weather is fine, take your family or friends to experience the unrestrained sea and quiet forests, forget the hustle and bustle of the city, blend into the embrace of nature, and retrieve childhood memories. Cycling through the forest with friends and family, enjoying the fresh air and indulging in the "oxygen bar" is a good choice. Finally, I would like to thank this Zihan fisherman for his warm hospitality. The lady boss is very good at cooking. I look forward to visiting again next time.
