Penglai Pavilion, Fortified tower in Penglai, China.
The Penglai Pavilion rises at the northwest corner of Shandong Peninsula, where the Yellow Sea meets the Bohai Sea at coordinates 37.829989, 120.750732.
During the Ming Dynasty, this military port fortification served as a defense point, with Portuguese forces supporting the protection against Manchu invasion.

The Penglai Pavilion complex operates as a AAAAA-rated tourist site, located 70 kilometers north of Yantai and 200 kilometers from Qingdao.
Natural mirages appear frequently near the pavilion during May and June, creating optical illusions over the sea surface.
