A charming old street with exotic vibes! The pointed roof of the former Norwegian consulate is super photogenic

💡 Tips to Avoid Pitfalls:
- The sightseeing shuttle at Yantai Mountain isn’t necessary—it’s just a 15-minute walk to the summit (though seniors or those with mobility issues may prefer it). Note: The south gate closes to individual visitors before 7 PM, but tour groups can still enter for shuttle rides. This isn’t very visitor-friendly, especially in summer when it’s still bright at 7 PM.
