#Weifang, the #kite capital of the world, is surrounded by rugged mountains to the south and vast blue seas to the north. Its unique natural stepped terrain, with higher elevations in the south and lower in the north, creates a natural wind corridor with an average wind speed of 3.2 meters per second, allowing for more than 200 flyable days each year. This has enabled the ancient art of kite-making in Weifang to be passed down through generations, establishing it as the hometown of kites. | Amaz
