What are the fun places in Qingdao?

Qingdao, known as the Switzerland of the East, is characterized by red tiles, green trees, blue sea and blue sky. It is a famous historical, cultural and seaside tourism city in the country. A friend asked me what interesting places to visit in Qingdao.

By coincidence, I happened to travel to Qingdao for three days in mid-July last year. I didn’t go all the way, but I still had a comprehensive understanding of the beautiful Qingdao. Here are some recommendations for those who love traveling:

1. Zhanqiao: A landmark building in Qingdao, close to the train station, there is an ancient building called Huilan Pavilion. The Zhanqiao stretches all the way to the sea. The seagulls on both sides of the Zhanqiao are spectacular. .

2. Badaguan: There are eight roads, so it is called Badaguan. It used to be the private villas of capitalists. The environment and scenery are particularly beautiful.

There is a Huashilou villa here, where Chiang Kai-shek Chen Yi and his family also lived here before. The Huashi Building extends to the seaside, offering a panoramic view of the second bathing beach.

3. May Fourth Square: named after the May Fourth Movement. It is close to the sea and can see the Olympic Sailing Center up close. The symbol of the square is the "Wind of May" sculpture, which looks like a fiery red spiraling wind. Like a torch, it is an iconic landscape of Qingdao.

4. Qingdao Olympic Sailing Center: referred to as Olympic Sailing Center or Olympic Sailing Base, it is the venue for the sailing competitions of the 29th Beijing Olympic Games and the 13th Paralympic Games in 2008.

5. Golden Beach Bathing Beach: There are six main bathing beaches in Qingdao. I feel that Golden Beach Bathing Beach is the best. Compared with other bathing beaches, the sand is finer and softer. The sea water is crystal clear and there are many shells. It is a great place to play. There are many projects.

6. Laoshan Scenic Area: The entire scenic area faces the sea and the unique scenery along the coast is spectacular.

In addition to the above attractions, there are many places worth visiting, such as Ocean Park, Lu Xun Park, Signal Hill Park, Little Qingdao, Christ Church and Beer Museum, etc. There are also many former residences of celebrities, such as Lao She’s former residence, Kang Youwei's former residence...

In short, Qingdao is really a good place worth traveling to. I only spent three days there the first time and didn't visit the whole place. I'd like to go shopping if I have time.

It is also recommended to everyone who has time to travel.

Finally, I will share my photos with everyone.

Qingdao is located in the southern part of the Shandong Peninsula. It is one of the first batch of coastal open cities in the country and the happiest city in China. Qingdao is the world's beer city and the world's sailing capital. It has a temperate monsoon climate, with four distinct seasons throughout the year. Summers are warm and rainy, but there is no scorching heat. Go to Qingdao to feel the sea breeze of more than 20 degrees Celsius blowing on your body. The most interesting places and attractions are: Beer Museum ~ Badaguan ~ Olympic Sailing Base~Zhanqiao~Jiangsu Road Christian Church~Signal Hill Park~May 4th Square, etc.

Start from the train station and go east

1. Zhanqiao, the most important symbol of Qingdao (Free)

2. The entrance to the Catholic Church (near the train station) is full of people taking wedding photos. The entrance fee is 10 yuan, so it is not recommended to go in.

3. Pichaiyuan (very close to Zhongshan Road). When you go to Pichaiyuan, just take a look at the oldest commercial street in Qingdao. Everything is not worth eating or buying.

4. Lu Xun Park, Naval Museum, Underwater World, and Little Qingdao can be visited or not

5. Zhongshan Park can be visited or not, but there are no highlights. You must go to the Eight Great Passes, all of which are European-style. Building, Signal Mountain (there is a fee, the most disgusting thing is that the climbing and observation deck are charged separately, Qingdao is shameless), you can overlook the entire Badaguan.

There is the Yushan Campus of Ocean University of China nearby, and there are many former residences of famous people nearby, such as Lao She and Kang Youwei. In fact, there is basically nothing to see inside.

6. 54 Square, Olympic Sailing Base, the most modern place in Qingdao at a glance

7. Shilaoren, Polar Ocean World, and bathing beach. It is recommended to go to Shilaoren Beach for bathing .

8. Laoshan (Laoshan is roughly divided into Jufeng, Beijiushui, Taiqing Palace, and Yangkou. The most shameless thing in Qingdao is to bundle tickets for Taiqing Palace and Yangkou together. In fact, it is tiring to climb one place a day. Got down) Personal Civil Engineering Jufeng and Beijiushui. Although Taiqing Palace is known as the second holiest place in Taoism and there is a huge statue of Lao Tzu, but if you want to enter the temple, you have to buy a separate ticket. Isn't it shameless? .

Jufeng

Beijiushui

Taiqing Palace

9. Expo, the night view is pretty good (fees apply)

10. Tsingtao Beer Museum, where you can drink a variety of pure Tsingtao beers (tickets required). If you don't understand the beer streets and beer houses, go there less. Otherwise, learn a few words in Qingdao or Northeastern dialect to show your identity as a friendly army.

Don’t come during the peak season. Everything is expensive, and you can’t have fun or eat well.

There are many scenic spots to visit in Qingdao, such as Zhanqiao, Laoshan, Xiaoyushan, and May Fourth Square. I like all these tourist check-in places. I also like the hot springs in Qingdao Haiquan Bay. When traveling to Qingdao, if you have extra time, you can go to the hot springs to experience it.

The hot spring is located on the east side of Aoshan Bay Binhai Avenue in Jimo City, Qingdao, close to the beach, 40 kilometers from the center of Qingdao, 15 kilometers from the center of Jimo, and 30 kilometers from Qingdao Liuting International Airport. The line has been opened.

You can also get there by taking bus No. 617 from Qingdao East Bus Station. The first bus from Qingdao East Bus Station is 7:00 and the last bus is 16:00; returning from Haiquan Bay: the first bus is 8:30 and the last bus is 18:00. 00, the departure time is 1 hour, and the fare is 5.5 yuan/person.

For self-driving friends, if you are driving in downtown Qingdao, you can follow Binhai Avenue, pass through the Laoshan Yangkou Tunnel, and go north all the way. You can reach it in less than an hour.

Friends from Jinan, Zibo, Weifang (Dezhou, Liaocheng, Hebei) can take the Nanquan exit of Jinan-Qingdao Expressway (G20), go straight along S309 Jimo direction, turn left on Binhai Avenue and go straight for 3KM. arrive.

Friends from Tai'an and Laiwu direction (Henan), take the Qinglan Expressway (G22) through the cross-sea bridge to the Jiaozhou Bay Expressway in the Chengyang direction.

In the direction of Heze, Jining, Zaozhuang, Linyi, and Rizhao (Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Shanghai), follow the Ridong Expressway (G1511) in the Rizhao direction to Rizhao and turn to the Tongsan Expressway (G15) in the Qingdao direction of the Tongsan Expressway.

Dongying Binzhou direction (Beijing, Tianjin, Hebei): Follow Rongwu Expressway (G18) and turn to Qingyin Expressway (G2011) at the intersection.

Weihai direction: Drive along the Qingdao-Weihai Expressway (S24) to the Qingdao direction at the intersection of the Qingyin Expressway (G2011) and turn towards the Qingdao direction of the Qingyin Expressway.

Qingdao Haiquan Bay Ocean Hot Spring is the largest ocean hot spring in China. It is the only ocean hot spring with both entertainment and health functions. With the theme of ocean culture, the park-style ocean hot spring, regardless of scale or supporting facilities, is in It is first-class in Asia and even the world. There are more than 60 hot spring pools of different styles and sizes, with a daily reception capacity of more than 2,000 people. Its hemispherical reticulated shell structure dome has a maximum span of more than 100 meters, which is currently the largest in the country. The largest indoor ocean spa.

People can experience complete relaxation in the hot spring water. When they close their eyes and relax in the hot spring water, they can feel the unity of mind and heart. After soaking in the hot spring, they can have a good sleep. After waking up in the morning, they can stand in the hot spring. Watching the sunrise on the beach is even more refreshing.

I am fortunate to have personally experienced the hot springs in Qingdao; it is luxurious and dreamy, and it is a very unforgettable trip.

Qingdao is located in the easternmost city of Shandong. It is surrounded by the sea on three sides and is suitable for all seasons. It is the most suitable city for bringing family and children, and one of the first choice cities for traveling with friends. There are many interesting places in Qingdao. Today, the author recommends two scenic spots to my friends for your reference. It may be a little help for your trip to Qingdao.

Qingdao Zhanqiao is one of the scenic spots in Qingdao Coastal Scenic Area. It is one of the first national scenic spots announced by the State Council in 1982, and is also the first batch of national AAAA tourist attractions.

1. Qingdao Zhanqiao is located at the southern end of Zhongshan Road in Qingdao, which is crowded with tourists. The bridge extends from the coast into the depths of Qingdao Bay like a crescent moon. The bridge is for tourists to visit and tourist boats can dock here. From here, you can see Qingdao on the sea.

Qingdao Zhanqiao was built in the 18th year of Guangxu’s reign in the Qing Dynasty (1892). It is the earliest military-specific artificial dock building in Qingdao. It is an important landmark building and a famous scenic spot in Qingdao.

2. Golden Beach is located on Jinshatan Road, Huangdao District, Qingdao City, on the coast of the Yellow Sea at the southern end of the Shandong Peninsula. Bordering the Yellow Sea in the south, it stretches from east to west in a crescent shape, with a total length of more than 3,500 meters and a width of 300 meters.

The water on Golden Beach is clear and flat, the sand is as fine as powder, and the color is like gold. The sea water is blue, and the water and sky are the same color, so it is called "Golden Beach". Qingdao Golden Beach is the beach with the finest sand, the largest area and the most beautiful scenery in my country. It is known as the "No. 1 Beach in Asia". At the end of 2008, it was rated as an AAAA-level scenic spot. I personally think these two attractions are fun. Friends, you must visit them when you go to Qingdao. They will definitely make your trip worthwhile.

It is recommended that you go to the following places

1. Zhanqiao, a landmark building in Qingdao, must be seen. There is also Little Qingdao next to it.

2. I don’t recommend you to go to the Underwater World. Now there is the Polar Ocean World, which is better, but the tickets for both places are more than 100.

3. Qingdao TV Observation Tower overlooks Qingdao city from the air.

4. Qingdao Naval Museum, recommended

5. May 4th Square, Qingdao’s symbol of May Wind

6. Badaguan and Badagxia, these two The roads in various places are named after gorges or passes, such as Qutangxia Road and Wushengguan Road. It is recommended to go to Badaguan. The architecture there is very unique. Many movies and TV shows shot some foreign scenery here. European style The buildings are of many styles, known as the International Architecture Expo, recommended

7. Olympic Hall, very good, recommended.

8. Laoshan Scenic Area. Northern Line Beijiushui (recommended) I used to do tourism, the specific time is up to you to arrange it yourself. Some people just go and watch the flowers, and some people like to watch them slowly. It depends on your own preferences. Feel free to make your own arrangements. It basically takes a day to tour Laoshan on your own.

There are many scenic spots worth visiting in Qingdao, the most famous ones are Laoshan Mountain, Zhanqiao and Badaguan.

But precisely because it is so good, tourists flock to it. During the peak tourist season, there are huge crowds of people, and there is no sense of experience at all. Below I will highlight a few niche attractions that have Qingdao characteristics, are less crowded, and offer a strong sense of experience.

1. Tsingtao Beer Museum

Every tourist who travels to Qingdao will regard drinking authentic and fresh Tsingtao beer as one of the must-experience items during this trip. In 1903, the Germans built a factory in Qingdao in order to solve the problem of being able to drink authentic German beer in a foreign land. Since then, Tsingtao Brewery on Dengzhou Road has become famous overseas and popular all over the world. Tsingtao Beer Museum is currently the world's first-class beer museum and the only beer museum in China. Here, you can not only taste the history and culture of Qingdao, but also taste the fresh puree beer that has just come off the production line. The taste will definitely make you unable to bear to leave for a long time. The adult ticket to the museum is 80 yuan. If you buy it from Ctrip, there is a discount, only 65 yuan.

2. 1907 Light and Shadow Club

The club is located at No. 17 Hubei Road. It is the tallest building on the seaside in Qingdao. It was built under the supervision of the German Prince himself and has a strong German neo-Renaissance feel. style, is a representative work of early German architecture in Qingdao. The club uses sound and light technology to combine space art with film art, giving it a full sense of experience. In addition, you can not only see but also eat here. The restaurant's exquisite dishes and elegant environment are a must-try for movie-loving tourists and young artsy people.

3. Old Sifang Beer Street

Adjacent to the Second Tsingtao Brewery Factory, it is a street dominated by Chinese garden scenery and original Ming and Qing ancient buildings. There are mountains and water inside, rich vegetation, fish playing with lotus leaves, and dragonflies dancing, which is refreshing. After shopping here, you can go to Tsingtao Brewery No. 2 for a pure beer tour. Thoroughly experience the freshness and passion of Qingdao draft beer.

Qingdao is a famous tourist city in China with many places to visit.

Whether it is Laoshan, the famous mountain on the sea, or the world-renowned International Beer Festival;

Whether it is the European-style buildings in the old city in the west; or the high-rise buildings in the new city in the east;

Whether it is the rise of new stars on the west coast; or the authentic taste of Jimo ancient city;

It will make you linger and forget to leave, making your trip worthwhile.

But what I would like to recommend to you is to drive on the Jiaozhou Bay Bridge. This road that I take to work every day is the main artery connecting the urban area and Huangdao. Its full name is 38 kilometers. The sea is calm and calm. Watching waterbirds flying overhead, you will marvel at the exquisite craftsmanship of the project and marvel at the superior wisdom of the people. You will enjoy a different scenery on the bridge (but you cannot park). It is completely different from the urban area. After a run, you will relax and release your emotions. It can be said to be a unique experience in Qingdao!

I'm happy to answer your questions.

Speaking of the overall impression and characteristics of Qingdao’s attractions: a maritime city with Eurasian style, it is called "China's Little Switzerland". "Museum of All Nations". Kang Youwei came to Qingdao for sightseeing for the first time and praised Qingdao as "the first in China with its red tiles and green trees (mainly referring to the old city), blue sea and blue sky (most frequently seen from September to April of the following year)", which all showed the uniqueness of Qingdao. The urban landscape also shows the rich connotation of Qingdao’s blend of Eastern and Western cultures. Drinking beer, eating seafood, and washing seaweed have basically become the labels of Qingdao.

Qingdao is humorously called the "gold-encrusted rag". The gold-encrusted rag mainly refers to the coastal seaside. Therefore, Qingdao’s scenic spots are mainly concentrated in the coastal area. It is mainly divided into seaside scenic area and Laoshan scenic area.

The main coastal scenic areas from west to east are: Tuandao Bay Scenic Area (Sea Palace, Eight Gorges), Qingdao Bay Scenic Area (Zhanqiao, Little Qingdao, Naval Museum, Governor's Palace, Catholic Church, Tianhou Palace, Xiaoyu Mountain, Signal Mountain, Guan Xiangshan, Jiangsu Road Christian Church), Huiquan Bay Scenic Area (Lu Xun Park, Qingdao Underwater World, the First Bathing Beach, Kang Youwei’s Former Residence, Qingdao Guest House), Taiping Bay Scenic Area (Badaguan, Zhongshan Park, Qingdao TV Tower, Zhanshan Temple, Tsingtao Beer Museum), Fushan Bay Scenic Area (Donghai Road Sculpture, May 4th Square, Olympic Park,), Shilaoren Scenic Area (Shilaoren, Fushan, Qingdao Polar Ocean World, Wheat Island, Qingdao International Beer City). Laoshan Scenic Area mainly features mountain and sea scenery and Taoist culture. It mainly includes Jufeng Scenic Area, Dengying Scenic Area, Liuqing Scenic Area, Taiqing Scenic Area, Shangqing Scenic Area, Yangkou Scenic Area, Beijiushui Scenic Area, Hualou Scenic Area, and Qipanshi Scenic Area. .

Other suburban attractions: Huangdao Golden Beach Scenic Area, Langyatai Scenic Area, Qingdao Tianheng Island Tourism Resort, Pingdu Tianzhu Mountain Cliff Carvings.

Famous snack streets and Internet celebrity streets: Zhongshan Road, Pichaiyuan, Jimo Road Wholesale Market, Dengzhou Road Beer Festival, Daxue Road, Yunxiao Road Snack Street, etc.

Qingdao specialties: Tsingtao beer, seafood, shells, pearl seafood crafts, Laoshan green tea, Dazeshan grapes, Beizhai cherries, Hongdao clams, Liuting pig trotters, etc.

After so many years in Qingdao, my favorite places to take friends when they come are: Zhongshan Road in the Old Town, Catholic Church, German Street, Signal Hill, Zhanqiao, Little Qingdao, Underwater World, Badaguan , May Fourth Square, Golden Beach.

I hope my answer will be of some help to you. Welcome to Qingdao.
