Weihai Must-Visit: The Internet-famous 'Blue Whale' that can't return home

📍Attraction Address: The stranded Blue Whale cruise ship is located on the Qianli Mountain and Sea Self-driving Highway in Weihai. You can accurately search for its location using navigation, and there is a beach parking lot. 🚗Attraction Transportation: It is generally recommended to drive to this attraction. Electric scooters are not recommended as their battery may not last for a round trip. It takes about an hour from Weihai city center. Visitors often combine this trip with a visit to Shendiao Mountain Zoo or Naxiang Sea Scenic Area as they are on the way. 👍️Must-Visit Attractions: You can take a speedboat or banana boat to get a close view of the ship; You can also walk along the coastline to find the best angles for photographing the ship. For portrait shots, walk about 300 meters east from the parking lot. 🎟️Ticket Information: Free attraction 💗Other Tips: In September 2022, due to the peripheral circulation of Typhoon 'Nanmadol,' the Panamanian cargo ship 'Blue Whale' intruded into the Haoyunjiao Tourist Resort area in Rongcheng City, Weihai, and got stranded, making it its 'home'—the crew was rescued, but the ship stayed due to high towing costs. Because of its 'harmonious' location, it unexpectedly became an internet sensation, looking photogenic from morning to evening

What you can see is stranded, what you can't see is the past.
