Weihai

Weihai is surrounded by sea on three sides and the harbor is protected by Liugong Island. The port was once the base for the Chinese Beiyang Fleet. The city was part of a territory (c.285 sq mi/740 km2) called "Weihaiwei", which was leased by Great Britain from 1898 to 1930. It was a summer station for the British Far East Fleet. It is now a commercial port and major fishing center with some light industries.
