I am looking for Qingdao travel guide, I don’t know how to design an itinerary!

Qingdao, a city that combines Chinese and Western elements and blends mountains, sea and city, is the most beautiful coastal scenery in China. The fresh green wisteria in Baihua Garden in early spring, the snow-like falling cherry blossoms in Zhongshan Park in early summer, the goose-yellow ginkgo leaves in Zhongshan Park in autumn, and the white peaks of Mount Laoshan in winter.

Back to Qingdao, I will start with the classical architecture and end with the seaside. I will take in all the large and small scenic spots in Qingdao, appreciate the classical style and feel the charm of the seaside, and at the same time review my sailor career and find my way back to Qingdao. Bits and pieces of memory, find yourself somewhere that you haven't seen for many years, and meet your original intention again.

You can decide the transportation method to Qingdao according to your own time and budget:

Option 1. Airplane: Qingdao Liuting International Airport can travel to and from more than 30 cities across the country. , the airport transportation has buses to various places in the city;

Option 2, train:

1. Qingdao Railway Station: Now all the trains in Qingdao are at the old railway station in Zhanqiao. Sifang and Cangkou have all been deactivated. The waiting floor of Qingdao Station is very high, giving people a spacious feeling. The interior is clean and tidy, without the chaotic and depressing feeling of ordinary train stations.

2. North Railway Station: In the northern part of Qingdao's urban area, it is a new station opened in recent years. Many high-speed trains and high-speed trains only depart from here, not Qingdao Station. There is a subway connection to the city.

Option 3. Car: They are North Bus Station, East Bus Station, and Sifang Long-distance Station. They are all in the urban area and have convenient transportation.

Qingdao’s internal transportation

But I don’t recommend driving to Qingdao because there are many one-way streets in the old town of Qingdao. If you are not careful, you will violate the regulations, and many private cars are no longer wide. The roads are full and most scenic spots do not have large enough parking lots, making it inconvenient.

Qingdao is not a big place, and the transportation is convenient. Subway lines have also been opened one after another, and there are really few people on the subway in Qingdao! Very few! Bus + subway + taxi can fully satisfy backpackers’ travel.

After coming out of the airport, I casually ate a bowl of tofu curd and three fresh wontons with coriander. Then I made a reservation online at the Old Street Inn on Market 3rd Road. After more than ten years apart, I still feel the same. I couldn't find my direction, so I got off the airport bus and walked around Jiaozhou Road for a long time. After more than ten years, this area has been transformed a lot. I tried hard to recall the strange and familiar feeling bit by bit.

Accommodation in Qingdao

As a coastal island city, Qingdao has various star hotels, budget hotels and youth hostels. There are also many sea view apartments hidden in various seaside residential areas. .

Qingdao itinerary

There are many tourist attractions in Qingdao, mainly seaside and ancient buildings. The attractions are more concentrated in Shinan District, which only takes 2-3 days; the surrounding attractions are There are many natural scenery and the drive is quite far, so it is best to have at least 3-5 days. When traveling to Qingdao, adjust your itinerary according to your own time.

Shinan District: The central and western part of Shinan District is the old city of Qingdao. Shinan District is a gathering place for scenic spots. Iconic scenic spots such as Zhanqiao, Xiao Qingdao, May Fourth Square, and Badaguan are all located in this area. The distance is not far, and many places can be visited on foot.

Shibei District: There are mainly 17 characteristic streets. You can go shopping in Taitung Pedestrian Street, drink beer and eat clams in Beer Street, and search for Qingdao in German

Custom Street The traces of development...show the Qingdao style.

Development Zone: Huangdao District, commonly known as Qingdao New Town, not only has rapid economic development, but also has unique natural and vivid coasts such as Golden Beach, Silver Beach, and Zhucha Island; to this area, It will also pass through the Jiaozhou Bay Undersea Tunnel, the longest undersea tunnel in China.

After settling in, I went to Qingdao Railway Station for a walk, the last stop I left Qingdao. It was already evening when we returned to the hotel from Qinghai Railway Station. It was night and I was tossing and turning.

Qingdao is a city of slow life. The sea, bookstores, coffee, petty bourgeoisie, literature and art can satisfy all your desires for slow life. Looking back on my life over the past few decades, if I could sum it up in two words, it would be: busy. Doing homework until late at night while studying. After working, I become even busier, working, traveling, falling in love, falling out of love, and studying on my own. I am deeply afraid that I will be abandoned by this city as soon as I relax. Looking around, there are actually people like me everywhere. When asked what they are doing, they usually answer like this: Busy, busy, crazy, busy... We are all kidnapped by busyness, and all this comes from I feel insecure and feel that I can only feel at ease by being busy.

The lights of Qingdao night outside the window made me dizzy. I couldn’t help but ask myself: How long has it been since we took a vacation for ourselves? What have we missed due to being busy?
