Liugong Island 刘公岛 Shandong Province

Liugong Island is located Weihai Bay, at the east end of Shandong Peninsula. It is very close to downtown Weihai City, only 20 minutes distance by tour ship.

刘公岛,位于威海湾口,距市区旅游码头2.1海里,乘船20分钟可到达。

1888年,北洋海军成军时,在岛上设电报局、水师学堂、建北洋海军提督署、建码头,成为中国近代第一支海军北洋水师的诞生地。

1894年,中日甲午海战就发生在该岛东部海域。如今,它成为著名的旅游观光地。
