    Yin Yang Sea

    Meet your tour guide and driver at the hotel lobby, and then head off to The Northeast Coast National Scenic Area. Just sit back, relax and enjoy the scenery through the window during the 1-hour drive. First, you will pass Bay of Two Colors, literally a bay where the sea is split into two colors – yellow and blue. The Chinese name “Ying Yang Sea” is given because the contrasting colors are associated with the Chinese yin and yang symbol. The process of natural mineral formation results in this unique wonder, “half golden, half blue” sea.
