It's not Jeju Island, it's Weihai! A winter wonderland truly exists.

When the swans from Siberia arrive in Weihai for the winter, Weihai officially becomes a fairy tale world. I spent two days in Rongcheng, not only photographing swans, but also driving along the Thousand Miles of Mountains and Seas Coastal Road. It was so beautiful, I highly recommend it to everyone!! 📍Accommodation in Weihai Rongcheng Our homestay significantly enhanced our entire trip! It's only a 15-minute drive from the Chezhuangou Swan National Nature Reserve. After a morning of swan photography, we returned for breakfast. The homestay features a Korean-inspired design with white as the main color scheme. The small houses are nestled against the mountains and by the sea, just 2 meters from the shore. The underfloor heating kept us very warm. There's a supermarket and local seafood restaurants near the hotel. 📍Shan Hai Xing Lv · San Meng Ji Hot Spring Sea View Resort Located at 302 Provincial Road, Chengshan Town, Weihai, 150 meters east of Xia Kou Fishing Port. It's family-friendly, with an outdoor children's play area and indoor parent-child craft activities. There are tons of Instagram-worthy photo spots, and the rooms have bathtubs and hot springs.
