Indeed, as I said, I saw Yantai as a people's city, a place offering a pleasant, often relaxed lifestyle attracting many retirees. Yes, I felt tempted myself! There, for example when visiting the remains of historic Xipaotai Fort groups of elderly residents exercised. Meanwhile, in contrast, within contemporary shopping malls young families relaxed and played in recreational areas so typical of scenes from today’s China. Such generational contrasts were there again with younger people congregating around and examining displays of the latest smartphone technology. However, in contrast, older residents would come together in the older alleys playing chess or cards.
