What is interesting in Qingdao? What is the information about Qingdao?

The year has almost passed halfway. The work after the new year has been extremely stressful and has been very busy. Recently, it has slowly slowed down and I have more time. The first half of the year was too busy and I have to prepare well. Relax, unlike the previous tours where it was no fun to rush to the scenic spots. The main purpose of this trip is to relax and eat, so we went to Qingdao without a group tour. This time it was a self-guided tour. I did some guides online and set off. , after the trip, I will share my travel experience and strategies with you. Day1: First encounter with Qingdao

There are many high-speed trains from Beijing to Qingdao, all departing from Beijing South Railway Station. The time from Beijing South to Qingdao Railway Station is basically about 4 hours and 50 minutes, and the fare is per person. It’s 314RMB

We are on the G181 train that departs at 10:45. Each row of this train has a charging socket. It arrives in Qingdao at 15:40. After coming out of the East Square of Qingdao Station, there is a place to store your luggage (10RMB for a small suitcase). Then follow the signs and walk for 10 minutes to the trestle. There is also a small beach next to the pier, where many people play in the water.

I came to Qingdao just to go to the beach to enjoy the sea breeze, take a sea bath, and eat seafood.

Zhanqiao

The Zhanqiao was originally built as a pier. I feel like it is a section of The bridge extends to the sea. The end of the bridge is Huilan Pavilion, but it is no longer open. Walking on the trestle, although it was after 4 o'clock in the afternoon and the sun was still very bright, compared to the 30-degree weather in Beijing, the sea breeze blowing along the way felt particularly comfortable. Next to the trestle, there is the recently popular sea flying balloon. The price for a double flight is 400RMB. Friends who like excitement can give it a try. ?

Walking on the trestle, you can watch seagulls flying freely here when the weather is calm. At the end of the bridge, you can also overlook Little Qingdao, where a white lighthouse stands gracefully. When the tide goes out, the golden beach emerges from the water. You can walk off the pier, walk on the beach and rocks to catch the sea, or pick up shells and crabs. Catholic Church

It takes about 15 minutes to walk from the trestle to the Catholic Church. If you walk there, there is an uphill road. Qingdao gives people the feeling that the road goes up and down sometimes, so you need to walk slowly. ?

There are many people taking wedding photos in the Catholic Church, so of course you have to take some photos here. Because I went there late, the church is not open to the public. If you want to visit the church, please pay attention to the visiting time:? 8:00-17:00;? Sister Wang BBQ

Navigate from the Catholic Church to Pichai It takes about 15 minutes to enter the hospital. There are various petty bourgeoisie shops along the way. The decorations are very special and you can take pictures here. I came across the first Wangjie BBQ restaurant on the road. It has squid, chicken and pork-related skewers. You can eat them while walking. Be sure to make sure the main sauce will splash. Be careful to get it on your clothes. You can also order barbecue to the side. Eat at Sister Wang’s Dumpling Hall. As a northerner, I think the taste of Sister Wang's BBQ is average. I give it a neutral rating. Maybe it's because I think it's too delicious, but the taste is average. The wooden house barbecue eaten in Beijing is more delicious. ?

Pichaiyuan

I felt that it was chaotic and crowded. A very narrow street was lined with various stalls. I bought the popular fried food at the entrance of Pichaiyuan. Sausage (13RMB) tastes mediocre. The "courtyard" basically consists of grilled squid, large meat skewers, and starfish and sea urchins.

We only walked around for a while and then turned a corner and arrived at a street with fewer people. We happened to see the Jiangning Guild Hall, which was hung with red lanterns and was singing a big opera. It happened to be hungry at night, so here we are. have eaten.

Every time you eat here, you order based on the ingredients. The two of us ordered two dishes, the tofu curd and crispy pork recommended on Dianping.com. Ordered a bowl of noodles and a pancake. It costs RMB 108 (including service charge of 2 yuan and free tableware). It is not expensive and the taste is very ordinary. But it is quite enjoyable to eat here. Listening to the big show, there will be a person who keeps adding tea with a long mouth. The surrounding decoration is very good and the temperature is not high. It is still worth trying. ?Because I was busy eating and didn’t take any pictures, so I downloaded the pictures from the Internet. Same as actual.

After we came out of Pichaiyuan, the weather was getting dark. Because we planned to climb Laoshan Mountain the next day, we booked an inn next to Laoshan Mountain, so we quickly navigated and walked to the train station and took the stored luggage (storage The latest luggage check-in time is 10pm). ? I took the No. 304 bus from the train station to the terminal, and then called Didi Express. In less than 10 minutes, I arrived at the scheduled inn, Tianyi Boutique Inn in Laoshan District, Qingdao.

The reason why I booked this inn was because I found one near Laoshan on Dianping.com, not far from the sea, and clean. RMB 228 per night for two people in a farmhouse.

The landlady and boss were very enthusiastic and told us where to visit and how to visit. The inn is relatively close to the Laoshan Visitor Center, only about 10 minutes' walk. Day2: Qingdao Qingdao Tour

Sunrise at Sea

Get up at 4 o'clock in the morning and walk to the beach to watch the sunrise. Near the Laoshan Tourist Service Center, there is a clear beach tourist area. Although it is not a sea ice bathing beach, it is clean and the scenery is good. I read reviews that it takes 10 minutes to get to the beach from the inn, which is too confusing. I walked for 40 minutes in the morning and was exhausted. The mosquitoes got up quite early along the way.

By the way, you must buy anti-mosquito items when you come here. I bought anti-mosquito patches, so I didn’t get too many mosquito bites. Walking in the morning is okay but tiring. When we got to the beach, the sun had risen early, but because the sun was blocked by the mountains, I watched a special "Sunrise from the Mountains". There was a breakfast shop next to the beach, and I ate soy milk and fried dough sticks. The price was about the same as in Beijing. Then we took the bus for 10 minutes and returned to the inn. Laoshan Tour

Buy tickets at the Laoshan Visitor Center, where you can store your luggage for free. The itinerary is that the bus takes tourists from the visitor center to the attractions. At the end of the tour, the bus takes them back to the visitor center. Laoshan tour can be divided into two lines, one is the Jufeng line of Laoshan, and the other is Liuqing-Taiqing-Chessboard-Yangkou. Jufeng is the highest peak of Laoshan. It is mainly mountain climbing and requires physical strength. The second line is mainly the seaside line with Taoist temples.

We chose to climb Jufeng, the ticket is 130RMB. The bus took us about 15 minutes to the bottom of the mountain. We could choose to take the cable car or climb up. However, after climbing up, we had to continue climbing the mountain and there was no sight of the car when we went up and down, so we chose to take the cable car up in the first part and then climb the mountain. The circle on the top of the picture is an eight-door attraction set up according to Taoist Bagua. There is no cable car in this part. The small tail below is the part with the cable car. The cable car is 40RMB one way.

The scenery on the mountain is still good, but you need to bring food and water. Water on the mountain is 5 yuan, and instant noodles are 15 yuan. But eating instant noodles on the mountain is quite fun.

The scenery on the mountain is good. Although the altitude of the giant peak is only more than 1,000 meters, this Bagua Tu does not go all the way up, but goes up and down. So overall it was quite tiring.

It’s still 40 yuan per person to take the cable car when going down the mountain.

The advantage of living near Laoshan is that you can go up the mountain in the morning. When we went down the mountain, there were many people going up the mountain. By that time, the weather was already relatively hot. We took the stored luggage and took the bus back to the city to the hotel we booked.

In the city is the Qingdao Donghui International Hotel booked on Ctrip. It is an old state-owned four-star hotel, priced at RMB 298 a night. The bed sheets and bathroom supplies in the hotel are very clean, and most importantly It's very close to Wanda Plaza.

For dinner, we went to Qianhaiyan in Wanda Plaza. This is an old Qingdao restaurant. The decoration is very comfortable and the food is delicious. Moreover, it only cost 150 yuan for two people to order a table of food. Day3: Deep Traveling to Qingdao

Wake up naturally in the morning and check into a hotel for the night. The hotel is booked at the 7 Days Inn on Taitung 8th Road. This place is very close to Taitung 8th Road because it is not the three-day holiday of the Dragon Boat Festival. One night is 118. Booked from Dianping.com. Then the bus went to Badaguan Scenic Area, which felt like a park with eight streets.

Following the street, we came to a beach where it was quite nice to play in the water.

There is a flower building next to it, which is the former residence of a certain celebrity, but I was not interested, so I took the bus directly to Lu Xun Park. Dianping searched for a seafood restaurant, Baihai Restaurant, which had relatively good online reviews. The taste is okay. But after eating, I always feel like I’m not full. Haha

After dinner, we went to Lu Xun Park for a walk, and then went to the Underwater World. I bought the ticket on Dianping and it was 20 yuan cheaper than buying it at the window.

Qingdao Polar Ocean World

There are no performances in the Underwater World, but it is quite good to take a look around, especially the Jellyfish Palace. The original price of the combined ticket is 130. There are four places. You have to leave one attraction and enter another.

The main polar animals you can see on the first floor are polar bears, sea lions, sea otters and other polar animals. The second floor seems to be a world of ice and snow. In the simulated polar environment, polar scenes such as ice and snow caves and Eskimo igloos can be seen everywhere. You can truly experience the wonderful feeling of life in the polar ice and snow. After viewing the first and second floors, you can take the elevator back to the first floor and visit the underwater world. Here, there is an undersea tunnel where you can directly watch marine animals. Through transparent glass, you can see thousands of rare marine fish and sharks flying above or around you.

After coming out of the underwater world, I checked the map on Baidu and returned to the hotel, passing by the Ocean University of China.

After returning to the hotel, there was a farmer’s market across the street. I bought some Shandong yellow cherries, which are quite sweet. They cost 15 yuan a pound. You can take some home. I went to Taitung 8th Road in the evening, and then went to the Yingkou Road Farmers Market and bought seafood. Prawns cost 100 yuan a pound. The two of us bought a 1.8-pound lobster. Pippi shrimps cost about 50 yuan a pound. We bought half of them. I bought two starfish for 15 yuan and two oysters for 9 yuan. Then I took it to a nearby beer house to make it. The price for making seafood was clearly marked. I went to Zhenyu Beer House and had three big lobsters (shrimp brain stewed with eggs, shrimp body spicy, shrimp tail with garlic vermicelli) for fifty, three You can bargain for 120 to eat. Steamed shrimps, 8 pieces of starfish, and 6 pieces of grilled oysters. I also ordered draft beer and blueberry-flavored beer. It felt so good to sit outside and eat haha.

When I went back, I passed by Taitung 8th Road Food Street, a food street. You can eat it when you are hungry. Go try it. Day4: Farewell to Qingdao

Woke up naturally, bought a box of yellow cherries at the farmer's market opposite the hotel, then took the bus to the train station, stored my things, and took the bus to May Fourth Square

The weather was very cool at 20 degrees on the 31st, and it was foggy at the beach. It was so cool.

After searching for two bus stops, we arrived at the nearby Carrefour, bought some seafood, and then took a ride back to the train station.

I stopped by the sea ice bathing beach in Zhanqiao and said goodbye to the comfortable Qingdao.

Qingdao gives me the feeling that it is relatively old, the roads go up and down, and the weather is very comfortable. It is a relaxing 4-day trip from Beijing, which is worth recalling. Oh yeah~

Finally, I will put the once-in-a-century halo seen in Qingdao. Wish you all a happy trip to Qingdao. Travel guide
