Brief History Weihaiwei was a seaport in Shantung province, northeast China at the eastern end of a peninsula on the north coast, 40 miles east of Chefoo and on the southern shore of the Strait of Pohai. It was a naval base, ship-repairing center, fishing port; providing a good harbour protected by Liu-Kung Island. The Chinese fleet was destroyed here by the Japanese in 1895 and the port was occupied by Japanese 1895-98. In 1898 it was leased to Great Britain and used as a naval base. It was returned to China in 1930.
