Penglai Water City, the best military port in ancient China

A 1,000-year-old castle where ships can enter and exit..
This is the Bongrae Water Castle located in Bongrae District, Yantai City.

Currently, this is a 5A-class tourist destination in China,
and it is a place with many connections to our history..
The Han Dynasty's navy, which was the cause of the fall of Gojoseon
The Tang Dynasty's navy, which was the cause of the fall of Baekje
All of them set out on a campaign here.

The military facilities of the general castle and the breakwater of the port..
The lock gates that ships can enter and exit, etc.
The appearance of the water castle, which was suitable for both land and sea defense, was unique

and it was also an unconditional gateway when visiting China by sea from the Three Kingdoms Period to the Joseon Dynasty.
Although this place has now played its role and turned into a tourist destination,
It boasts many things to see and a large site as it has been designated as a 5A-class scenic spot.

It's a good idea to set aside plenty of time when visiting this place.
I arrived in the morning and was able to finish my tour only after almost finishing.

Please take note.
