How about going to Qingdao in summer? I hear it's very hot.

Qingdao is a coastal city with sea breeze, which is hot during the day and cool at night.

A must-see attraction: trestle bridge

Bian Xiao suggested:

A friend who went to Qingdao for the first time suggested that we must have a look at the trestle. After all, it is the most representative symbol of old Qingdao. Moreover, the trestle bridge is very close to Qingdao Railway Station, and it is convenient to walk to the seaside as soon as you get off the train.

If you are a friend who often comes to Qingdao, you don't have to go to the trestle. The Huilan Pavilion at the end is free of charge, and it is full of exhibitions and small souvenirs, which is meaningless.

Introduction of scenic spots:

The trestle bridge is located at the southern end of Zhongshan Road, where tourists are weaving, and the bridge body probes into the crescent-shaped Qingdao Bay from the coast. This bridge is for tourists to visit and dock tourist boats, from which they can see Qingdao on the sea.

The trestle can be said to be the same age as Qingdao. Li Hongzhang, an imperial envoy of the Qing Dynasty, wanted to visit Qingdao (then called Jiaoao). According to Li Hongzhang's level, it should be a large official ship, but Qingdao was only a small fishing village at that time and had no ability to dock large official ships at all, so a port was temporarily built. Later, it was renovated and used all the time. This is the prototype of the trestle. After liberation, a large-scale deep-water port (now the largest container terminal in Asia) was built in Jiaozhou Bay, and the trestle lost its use value as a port. After several transformations, it has become what it is now. At present, Huilan Pavilion at the bridge head of Zhanqiao is a small exhibition hall, and some art exhibitions such as art and photography are often held.

Trestle is the symbol of Qingdao. If tourists who come to Qingdao don't look at the trestle, they have never been to Qingdao. At the end of the bridge, the upturned double-eaved building with China national style is dignified above the blue waves, which is particularly unique against the backdrop of many European-style buildings along the coast. The trestle is 440 meters long and 8 meters wide, and it is a steel-concrete structure. There is a semi-circular breakwater at the southern end of the bridge. There is a national octagonal building in the breakwater called "Huilan Pavilion". Tourists stand beside the pavilion and enjoy the waves coming in layers. "Gefei Huilan" is known as one of the "Ten Scenes of Qingdao". The north shore of the bridge is turned into "zhanqiao park", with lush flowers and trees, pine and green grass, and stone chairs for tourists to rest and enjoy the sea and sky scenery. There are lanterns on the west side of the bridge, which bloom like magnolia at night.

Must-see attractions 2: Badaguan

Bian Xiao suggested:

If you like petty bourgeoisie, if you like European architecture, if you like walking on tree-lined paths, or if you are just a photographer. Qingdao eight customs will never let you down.

There are ten roads criss-crossing with lush trees on both sides. The scenery in the four seasons is different. During the walk, I occasionally see people sketching and couples taking wedding photos.

Qingdao locals love it here very much. If you just walk around and chat, your mood will be different immediately. Usually there are not many people here, and it is very quiet. Besides, you can also visit the nearby Huashi Villa, which is also a famous scenic spot.

Introduction of scenic spots:

Badaguan is one of the must-see scenic spots in Qingdao, which can best reflect the characteristics of Qingdao's "red tiles and green trees, blue sea and blue sky". Here, the park and courtyard are integrated into one, with lush trees and flowers blooming all the year round on both sides of No.10 Road.

The so-called "Eight Pass" is because eight roads (now increased to ten) are named after Eight Pass, namely Shaoguan Road, Jiayuguan Road, Hanguguan Road, Zhengyangguan Road, Linhuaiguan Road, Ning Wuguan Road, Zijingguan Road and Juyongguan Road. These ten roads crisscross, forming a scenic spot in Fiona Fang.

The architecture of Badaguan has concentrated the architectural styles of more than 20 countries, such as Russia, Britain, France, Germany, the United States, Japan and Denmark, and is known as the "World Architecture Expo".

Must-see attraction 3: the first bathing beach

Bian Xiao suggested:

How can I come to Qingdao without going to the seaside? The first bathing beach is one of the attractions that all tourists coming to Qingdao will definitely visit. Pick a sunny day, put on a beautiful sexy swimsuit, even if you can't swim, it doesn't matter, lie on the beach and sunbathe.

If you think there are too many people in the first bathing beach, go to the second bathing beach, but there is a charge and the cost is not high. It is definitely the best choice for you who like fewer people.

On the coastline of Qingdao, you will see many people walking on the road directly wearing swimsuits and swimming trunks, but don't believe your eyes. This is a beautiful scenery in Qingdao!

Introduction of scenic spots:

The first bathing beach is the largest bathing beach in Asia and the best among many bathing beaches in Qingdao. It has always been famous for its gentle slope and fine sand, clear water and calm waves.

Due to the erosion of waves, the rocks along the beach are constantly eroded into fine gravel, which is deposited on the shallows of the bay, forming a fine beach with a length of about 580 meters from east to west and a width of more than 40 meters, extending to the extreme distance in the sea. Due to the barrier of Huiquan Angle, the surge entering the bay gradually decays, thus forming a calm sea surface with a wave height of only about 1 m, which is very suitable for marine entertainment activities.

The scenery here is very beautiful. In the distance, the long and narrow Huiquanjiao, the waves hit the red reef, and the trees cover the ground. The quiet flowers and trees are shaded and the shadows of the building are hazy. Nearby beaches, blue waves and golden beaches are shaped like a crescent moon. Bath swimming and bathing facilities are complete, and the dressing room is brightly colored and exquisite. It is an excellent choice for summer travel.

Other beaches in Qingdao

There are nine main beaches in Qingdao: Nanhai Road No.1 Beach, Shanhaiguan Road No.2 Beach, Taipingjiao Road No.3 Beach, Taiqiao Road No.6 Beach and Haikou Road Shilaoren Beach. Yangkou Beach in Laoshan District, Abalone Island Beach, Golden Beach and Silver Beach in Development Zone. Among them, the first bathing beach is recognized as the best, the reputation of Shilaoren bathing beach is also good, and the second bathing beach charges.

Must-see attraction 4: Laoshan Mountain

Bian Xiao suggested:

The biggest attraction of Laoshan Mountain is "the first mountain on the sea". You can see the sea while climbing the mountain, which should be a beautiful scenery that other inland mountainous areas can't enjoy. In addition, it is a famous Taoist mountain in China.

Five must-see attractions: May 4th Square

Bian Xiao suggested:

In fact, the May 4th Square is a coastal square built opposite the municipal government, which is not essentially different from the squares that can be seen in other places. But May 4th Square is the most typical representative of Qingdao New Town, and it is especially beautiful at night. You can see many local people skating, flying kites, dancing and exercising in the square ... it's not interesting.

Because it is very landmark, it is convenient to meet friends or take a taxi in May 4th Square.

Introduction of scenic spots:

May 4th Square is adjacent to Qingdao municipal government office building in the north and Fushan Bay in the south, with a total area of 10 hectare. Qingdao is named after the fuse of the great May 4th Movement in China's modern history, aiming at carrying forward the patriotic spirit of the May 4th Movement and encouraging people to work hard to meet the arrival of the new century.

May 4th Square is divided into north and south parts. The municipal government office buildings, hidden fountains, lattice fountains, Maywind sculptures, and 100-meter fountains distributed on the central axis show solemn, solid and magnificent scenery rhythmically, which is more vibrant and full of modern atmosphere against the backdrop of large-scale scenic forests.

The main sculpture in the square, Wind in May, is 30 meters high and 27 meters in diameter. It adopts spiral steel structure combination, and takes the arrangement and combination of simple washing modeling elements as "wind" shape, which fully embodies the patriotic tone of anti-imperialism and anti-feudalism in the May 4th Movement and the national strength of publicity and soaring, and has now become one of the landmark landscapes of Qingdao in the new century.

The plants in the square are mainly arranged in cool-season lawns with evergreen seasons, with flower pictures such as Sabina vulgaris, Ligustrum lucidum with golden leaves, Ilex longan, Berberis purpurea, roses, etc., forming a large-scale colorful flower belt with modern garden flavor, in which pine and cypress, Albizia Albizia and cold-resistant flowers and trees are dotted, organically blending with the main sculpture and the natural environment with the same sky and sea, forming a magnificent landscape of the park.

Six must-see attractions: Polar Ocean World

Bian Xiao suggested:

Polar Ocean World is one of the seven projects specially developed by Qingdao in 2008 to welcome the Olympic Games. It was rebuilt on the basis of the original Qingdao Dolphin Museum, forming a place featuring polar marine animals.

There are a large number of polar animals, such as penguins and polar bears, and other marine animals can be seen in other underwater worlds. However, the overall design and planning of polar ocean world is good. Entering the polar ocean world is like entering an underwater fairy tale world.

In addition, tourists who want to have close contact with small animals also have opportunities. Polar Ocean World will arrange interactive performances such as dolphins and beluga whales every day, so be sure to consult the time in advance. Don't miss it!
