Yantai has a long history, and it was called Zhifu in the ancient times. In 200 B.C. the first emperor of China once shot fish here with bows drawn and arrows set, forming afterwards “the fish shooting platform”.For fighting against the sea rovers, the Ming Dynasty set up the beacon fire stand in the y ear of 1398 and “Yantai” hereby achieved her nomenclature. And Yantai became one of the first ports that opened up to the outside in 1861. In 1958, Yantai district was set up. In 1983, Yantai City was set up. In 1984, the State council approved Yantai as one of first14 coastal cities in China open to the outside world. About 17 countries setup their consulates in Yantai from 1862 to 1930. Meanwhile, banks, churches, schools, and even the first post office in China were set up to serve the increasing foreign institutions. Now most of the relics are preserved and renovated and are open to public.
