After several cloudy and rainy days, it’s finally sunny today in Qinhuangdao. How pleasant it is! Actually watching sunrise in Qinhuangdao is also a wonderful experience which you shouldn’t miss!
The moment of seeing the red sun rising gently from the sea level, you may feel shocked at the beauty.
The most wonderful place of watching sunrise in Qinhuangdao must be at the seaside. The rising sun, as red as fire, gradually leaps up from the sea level, breaks through the darkness and brings light, illuminating the sea and flaming the sky.
Pigeon Nest Park
Pigeon Nest Park lies at the east of the seaside and is very close to the sea. These is a big steep rock (about 18 meters high) in the park, which is called Yingjiao Stone.

Qianshuiwan
With an around 3000-meter coastline from east to west, Repulse Bay, which is opposite to Qinhuangdao Wildlife Park, is a shallow sea area, with a depth less than 6 meters. Repulse Bay can be described as calm and tranquil. At sunrise, the beams of light cast by the rising sun spread over the sea, and shallow waves pile up to the beach, as if to send sunlight to the shore.
