Just got back from Yantai, really not recommended to go in May!

Who understands 😭 Yantai in May is so beautiful that I want to move there right away! Just came back from Yantai, hot strategy immediately served! Neither cold nor hot weather + superb sea view, will really cry if you miss it! !

🎒 Prepare a list before departure

✅ Outfit Guide:

- Daytime around 25°C, short sleeves + thin jacket just right
- Wearing a white/blue dress for a seaside photo, you can make a big movie📸
✅ Sunscreen three: high-power sunscreen + sunscreen + sunglasses, seaside UV rays are really strong!
✅Others: Power Banks Renew Life! Comfortable flats (a lot of walking), umbrella (occasionally rainy).
