    Peitaiho Beach is a seashore community created originally by and for westerners (i.e., non-Chinese). It became a very popular resort to escape the summer heat and humidity of inland cities. This community was connected by a spur line to the main line of the railway, the junction of which was at the town of Peitaiho, through which flowed a small river of the same name. Peitaiho Beach is on the Gulf of Chihli, approximately 15 miles from the China-Manchuria border.
