Text description provided by the architects. Yangma Island is located in Muping District, Yantai. It is backed by Kunyu Mountain and faces the North Yellow Sea. It is said that the First Emperor of Qin raised horses here during his eastern tour 2000 years ago, there is a small island in the east, which looks like a giant elephant bathing in the water, so it is also called Elephant Island. Since its development in the 1980s, Yangma Island has been a local public sanatorium and leisure resort in Yantai due to its facilities such as bathing beaches and racecourses. With the rise of coastal leisure in recent years, Yangma Island has gradually become a suburban tourist hotspot in Yantai. The Jelly Sea and the sea-hunting activities at low tide are both good places to go.
