Shandong Peninsula

Just like the Liaodong Peninsula I posted about previously, you will find Shandong Peninsula (山東半島) in northeast CHINA and is partly surrounded by Bo Hai and Korea Bay. This peninsula is part of Shandong Province. With several million residents, Qingdao lies at the southern part of Shandong Peninsula and is the largest city in the area. Other large cities on and near the peninsula include Laiyang, Longkou, Pingdu, Rongcheng, Weifang, Weihai, Wendeng, and Yantai. In the southern part of Bo Hai lies the Laizhou Bay, located north of the peninsula; the famous and important Yellow River (Huang) flows west of Shandong. Several peaks on Shandong include Kunyu Shan (923 meters) and Ai Shan (818 meters).

● The author of this GeoFact of the Day Blog creates and curates original, authentic content and posts information based on established facts. Blog posts are not generated by artificial intelligence (AI) but published by the author.

● Content and image graphics from other sources are properly credited. Many geography facts are well-established and therefore do not belong to any one source, but occasionally a fact requires attribution/credit if it is unique and hard-to-find — for example, facts found from specific cultural, anthropological, geological, and scientific (etc.) research.

● I do not copy and paste from other websites. Therefore, all posts are original but may sometimes include information, links, and/or images from credited external sources. To use a GeoFact of the Day Blog image for your website or project, write a comment below a post — then I may approve your request.
