Travel routes to Qingdao

After getting off the train, walk to Guangxi Road. There are many accommodation places around, ranging from 200-300 yuan. (Accommodation in Qingdao is more expensive, especially in the peak season after May 1st.) However, 200 yuan is basically a quasi-three-star price, it depends on your personal bargaining skills! As I write this, I am instructed by my classmate Niaodan to write a few words about the place where we stay. I originally booked the "Helen Yaju Family Hotel", but after arriving, I felt that the conditions were quite difficult. Later, I found the state-owned "Zhongqing Hotel" on the street behind Hailun Yaju. The standard room with an independent bathroom was 208 yuan. It was less than 10 minutes' walk from the trestle. The specific location is not far from Qingdao Daily. You can find out just by asking. Sorry, I didn’t write down the phone number. However, there are many places to stay in Qingdao, so you can choose slowly.

After setting up a place to stay, you can play! Buy a map, it costs 5 yuan on the train and 4 yuan in the city.

Our recommended seaside hiking route: Zhanqiao - Naval Museum (can travel to Xiao Qingdao) - Xiao Qingdao Park - Lu Xun Park - No. 1 Bathing Beach - Badaguan Scenic Area - (take a bus to )-May 4th Square-Music Square-(take the bus to)-Shilaoren Bathhouse

D2: You can visit Laoshan Scenic Area.

D3: Continue to visit the unfinished scenic spots on the seaside route. Return to Qingdao Liuting Airport that evening.

It is highly recommended that you book your return ticket before going. You can ask travel agencies if they have charter flights back. If you are lucky, you can get a 50% discount. In addition to the airport construction fee of 50 yuan, it is only less than The train ticket is more than 100 yuan expensive. The reason we don't take the train is that train tickets are difficult to buy and it wastes a day. Of course, that’s another matter if you have enough time.

Our suggestions:

1. There are speedboats on the pier. Different routes have different prices. It is more worthwhile to charter a boat for 4 people. Those looking for excitement can stand next to the driver and stamp their feet excitedly shouting: Liberate Taiwan! Liberate Taiwan! ! You can also sit obediently in the back like me, holding on to the armrests, grinning in the wind, and getting splashed with water on your pants...

2. You can buy half-price student tickets at the Naval Museum, so don’t forget to bring your student ID. From the Naval Museum, you can walk to Xiao Qingdao Park. The Naval Museum is divided into two exhibition areas and one exhibition hall. The exhibition hall mainly displays naval uniforms, military supplies, etc. It will be closed before 5:30. The two exhibition areas are submarines and warships. There is no time limit for visiting warships. The submarine seems to close at 6 o'clock, so hurry up.

3. Xiao Qingdao Park does not have student tickets, which is quite depressing. But the scenery is excellent. It is highly recommended to visit in the evening or early in the morning. There are few people and it is quiet. You can appreciate the sound of the waves hitting the shore.

4. Lu Xun Park is mainly famous for its Red Reef, and there is no admission fee before 8 a.m.~~~~But! Tickets are only 5 yuan, you can decide if you want to evade the fare! Ha...

5. The distance between Lu Xun Park and the First Bathing Beach is a bit far, so you can choose to take a bus. The buses in Qingdao are very convenient, but they are all coin-operated, so you need to bring your own change.

6． The No. 1 Bathing Beach is really unparalleled, you can experience the refreshing feeling, of course, under the premise that there are few people, so it is best to go in the morning.

7. From the first bathing beach, you can walk to the second bathing beach and Badaguan Scenic Area. In my personal opinion, after watching the first one, there is no need to watch the second one. However, those of us who have no sense of direction and turn around and know that we are walking along the coast will not be able to hit the second bathing beach... If you have a good sense of direction and can distinguish between east, west, north and south, you can go to the Eight Great Passes with a map...

8． Take a bus from Badaguan Scenic Area to May Fourth Square, which is a famous square in Qingdao. Music Square is next to May 4th Square, but good places always have a lot of people! On the day we went, there were so many people that we were so scared that we didn’t even dare to get out of the car, so we went straight to the Shilaoren Bathing Beach.

9. When taking the bus from May Fourth Square, you must sit on the right seat of the bus, which is the coastal side. In the car on the beach, the cool breeze blows, it is time to relax, life is so beautiful, and the feeling of happiness surrounds you. Are you like me? I chose to take credit with Bird Egg at this beautiful moment: "Look, it's not bad. You don't need to worry about it. Are you satisfied with the route? Are you satisfied with the scenery?" Yelling, "Listen to the leader, the leader is always right!! Be loyal, absolutely loyal!!!" Haha... Sometimes, sweetness requires skills. (Ahem, I’m going too far...)

10 There is a seaside sculpture museum on the way to Old Man Shi Bathing Beach. If you are interested, you can go and see it. Because we were short on time, we only went to Shilaoren.

11. In my impression, the beach at Shilaoren Bathing Beach is the most beautiful. What should be experienced most slowly. Don't forget to bring a large plastic sheet, spread it on the ground, put on sunglasses, and let the two of you sunbathe lazily. You can also build castles, write and draw on the beach, and you will forget time. Of course, your stomach will not forget the time. At noon, there is a beer house on the beach. The price is a little expensive, but the aroma of the barbecue will make you unable to move. Real beer, grilled chicken wings, grilled mutton skewers, grilled buns... swallowing...

12. Finally, let’s talk about Laoshan.

The two of us were lazy and booked tickets to Laoshan at the front desk of the hotel where we were staying. Only when we got on the bus did we realize that we were actually traveling with a group~~~~~ But it seems that the buses from Qingdao to Laoshan are all like this, one car and one car. The tour group will take you to visit some TV tower, but there is no need to go. After arriving at Laoshan, all guests were asked to take the cable car up the mountain. Oh my god, why don’t you take the cable car on a mountain as high as Xiangshan? ! Of course, we refused to sit down and ran all the way up. We reached the top in 20 minutes. The tour guide's eyes widened in surprise. How could it be so exciting? There is a Mitian Cave on the mountain, but there are many people in the cave and the exit is small, which really scares me. But it's quite interesting. There are also Huayan Temple and Shangqing Palace. It really felt like Mount Laoshan, maybe because I just came back from Huangshan Mountain, and also because the weather was bad that day. In addition, there are no student tickets in Laoshan. I think the only thing that attracted me was that it was a mountain next to the sea.

13. Regarding eating: You can’t live without drinking beer in Qingdao. Even a non-drinker like me said it tastes good! (Tsingtao beer is the best, but Laoshan beer is average and has no alcohol flavor.) Also, I went to Melda BBQ restaurant on Zhongshan Road, which was praised highly on the Internet. It was quite cheap. But when we went there after dinner, many items were gone. It is worth mentioning that Old Captain Hand in Hand is an affordable seafood restaurant. The online reviews are very good, but it is really very good. The seafood is delicious and the price is acceptable. The specialties are delicious, especially the pot stickers, which are made from beef and are made yellow. Your mouth is watering... You can buy two kilograms of real beer from the small shop next to it, put it in a small plastic bag, and bring it to the old captain to eat. Don't be embarrassed, this is how everyone in Qingdao eats. But you have to figure out how to drink it yourself, hehe... There is a price to pay for eating specialties...

14. I thought about it again, and there is one more thing. I want to buy some conch and sea shells to bring to my friends. You can buy them in the underground market next to the pier. Here I want to show off my conch scriptures. Deep conch is very precious, and among the deep conch, the four famous conches are the best. The four famous snails are: Nautilus, Wanbao snail, Buddha's ear snail, and Phoenix tail snail. Others, they say belong to the four famous snails, which is purely deceptive! ! Remember, remember! ! And you can often find good stuff at the inconspicuous stalls in the market. I bought a Wanbao snail with a good design and color for only 20 yuan. I was also in this market a year ago and bought one with the same design and color for 60 yuan. ! Of course, the premise is to buy a very expensive nautilus.
