Drive yourself to Jindream Bay in Qinhuangdao, a place of 10,000 sunrises that will take your breath away

🌸 In May, Beijing can easily reach over 30 degrees Celsius. If you plan to escape the heat and welcome the cool breeze on the weekend, driving to the seaside is a great option. Qinhuangdao is a good choice, and I recommend Jindream Bay for its variety of activities, beautiful scenery, and key location right in the city center. 🈶 Jindream Bay has a long coastline, stretching 4.2km. The beach is divided into east and west areas, with fine and clean sand and high water transparency. The gentle sea breeze softly sweeps the beach, creating a peaceful and serene atmosphere with relatively few tourists. 🏡 As May progresses, I find this place much livelier than the last time I visited. Not only are there many more beach camping tents on the shore, but also beautiful sailboats available for fun at sea. Of course, the sunrise at sea is still not to be missed. Before sunrise, the azure sky covers the seaside, everything so gentle, and as a large flock of seagulls arrives on time for 'work', the most exciting moment comes. The view here is too broad, and the angle of the rising sun is still at 45 degrees on the side. No matter how you take photos, they are perfect. The moment the sun reddens the sea is heart-stirring. 🌈 Regarding time, don't be lazy and sleep in. One hour before and after sunrise is the golden time. For reference, the sunrise time in May is currently around 4:30 AM. ⏰ Regarding the moment, check the weather forecast in advance and go on a sunny day. The sun rises from the southeast direction, roughly behind the cranes of the port. To capture a great shot, plan ahead. 🚻 Suggested best travel route: A large area here is called Jindream Bay, but the essence, or the easiest part to reach, is on the south side of Riverbank Road. If you walk from the south side of the Sea Blue Platform Art Center, it's the closest and offers the best view. ❤ Which scenery is worth seeing? The sunrise moment is pure scenery, but you can also take photos with people. There are more reference objects now, such as sailboats and large tents, etc. 🏠 Which facilities are worth noting? The sunrise time is very early, and the play facilities are all closed. Bring food and drinks to watch the sunrise. 📷 How to take beautiful portrait photos: The view is broad, and both telephoto and wide-angle lenses are good for shooting. 🚗 How to get there? There is no public transportation at sunrise time in the morning, so stay directly at the Sea Blue Platform B&B or Shangri-La Hotel to fully enjoy the most beautiful sunrise. ☎ How to buy tickets and make reservations? It's a free attraction, just go directly. 🔥 Must-see TIPS before checking in: 1. Pets are allowed. 2. It's cold at sunrise, so wear long sleeves. 3. Bring extra shoes to change after walking in the sand.
