Additional Details:
Chefoo is a great gateway to China. This harbor is deep and at the same time treacherous. The foreign trade is carried on with England and America, and the imports are mostly raw material, wool, cotton, etc. It is one of the oldest harbors in China, being older than Hong Kong
wikipedia: The largest fishing seaport in Shandong and a robust economic center today, Yantai used to be known to the West as Chefoo, a misnomer which refers, in Chinese, solely to Zhifu Island, which is historically governed by Yantai
