10-day Weifang itinerary at a glance
Use our full Weifang travel guide as the base and adapt it to 10 days. Keep the city's three signature attractions as the backbone; fill the rest with neighborhood walks, food markets, and an easy day trip.
Arrival, Kite Museum & Bailang River
The museum beside the Bailang river runs through 2,000-plus years of kite history and the international festival Weifang has hosted every year since 1984; the building opened in 1987. Evening is for the riverfront lawns where locals fly their own.

Yangjiabu & Shihu Garden
Morning an hour of workshops at Yangjiabu, where the woodblock print craft goes back about 600 years to the Ming era and kite frames get built the same courtyards. Afternoon in the city center for Shihu Garden, laid out in 1885 on barely 2,000 square metres.

Rest Day
A slow riverside day - willow walks, chess under the plane trees - before the Qingzhou pair.

Qingzhou — Old City & Yunmen
Under an hour west, the 5A old city (rated 2017) walks from gate lanes to the Yunmen Mountain path; the Shou character carved in 1560 stands 7.5 m tall on the cliff. Overnight in Qingzhou to split the sights.

Qingzhou Museum & Tuoshan
The museum's cache of Buddhist figures - more than 400 found in 1996 buried at the Longxing temple site - anchors the morning. Tuoshan's cliffs hold over 600 carved figures from the Sui and Tang on; return to Weifang by evening.

Zibo Day
An honestly labeled neighbor-city day - Zibo sits about half an hour west by high-speed rail, and its own page carries the full site list. A day return is realistic.

To Qingdao (overnight option)
Another flagged neighbor day - the coast is about an hour east by rail. If the calendar allows, take the night there rather than a same-day dash.
- qingdao
Qingdao Morning, Return
A coastal morning on whatever the first day left open, then the rail hop back west to Weifang.
- qingdao
Culture Street & River
Return to the Shihu Garden quarter at street-market pace - the culture district around it sells kites, prints and copperwork - and close with a last riverside walk.

Markets & Departure
A breakfast round of the local standards - guo da la noodles and the baked meat pies sold at every corner - then the rail station.
