Yantai named most livable city in China

Yantai, a coastal city in East China's Shandong province, has been named the most livable city in the country, local media reported on August 4.

The city's climate is suitable for people who struggle with summer heat, as the average daytime temperature during summer is only 24 degrees Celsius. In the winter, residential buildings in the city are equipped with heating systems.

Yantai is also famous for its apples, which taste crispy and sweet, and Laiyang-grown pears are crispy and juicy, making them effective at quenching thirst and relieving hot lungs. As a coastal city, Yantai also has a wide variety of seafood.

In addition to its attractive seascape, Yantai also boasts some beautiful urban scenery. Forty percent of the city is covered in foliage, and it has good air quality year-round, earning it the honorary title of National Forest City.

As a coastal city, Yantai also has a strong economy. Its high-tech and innovative zones employ many talented people, and the Yantai Penglai International Airport, railway station, high-speed railway station, and ports connect the city with many places in China and around the world.
