Yantai Shimao No.1 The Harbour, Supertall skyscraper in Zhifu District, Yantai, China
Yantai Shimao No. 1 The Harbour is a 323-metre skyscraper on Jiefang Road in Yantai, Shandong, designed by the architectural firm Wong Tung & Partners. It is the largest building of the Yantai Shimao complex, whose three other towers reach 190, 184 and 175 metres. Sources give 57 to 62 storeys for the main tower, completed in 2016.
The foundation stone was laid on 9 July 2007, and construction of the tower began in 2008 to designs by the Hong Kong firm Wong Tung & Partners. The main tower was completed in 2016 at 323 metres and 57 floors, while the three companion towers on the same plot were finished in 2011. Promoted as the tallest building in Shandong, its planned height was overtaken by other provincial towers before completion.
The tower reflects how Yantai transformed from a port city into a modern business hub, mixing hotels, offices, and homes in one place. You can see this shift in how the building connects to the surrounding district's commercial and residential neighborhoods.
The tower is located on Jiefang Road in Zhifu District with good access to multiple transportation options. Visitors will find shopping, dining, and public transit connections easily available nearby.
