"The No. 1 Mountain in the Sea" - Laoshan

There is an old local saying: " Although Mount Tai is high in the sky, it is not as good as Mount Laoshan in the East China Sea. "Among the famous mountains in the country, only Mount Laoshan rises from the sea. When you walk on the bluestone path of Laoshan Mountain, you will see the blue sea and the turbulent waves crashing on the shore on one side; the lush green pines and rocks on the other side, you will feel open-minded and refreshed.

Qingdao landmark - Zhanqiao

Qingdao's landmark building, close to the train station, 10 meters away from Zhongshan Road Minutes' walk. It was built in 1892 in the Qing Dynasty, so the architectural style of Huilan Pavilion is still the style of ancient buildings. The trestle extends into the sea like a plank road, with Huilan Pavilion at the end. There are beaches and sea rocks on both sides, as well as the first swimming beach.

We went when the tide was low. The seagulls on both sides of the pier were particularly spectacular. There were a lot of kelp washed up on the beach next to it, and the seagulls were feeding on it. From the pier, you can see the Little Qingdao Lighthouse opposite. It is recommended to visit when the tide is about to go out. You can see seagulls, and you can also go to the sea to pick up oysters and kelp on the rocks. If you bring a bucket, you may find some interesting things. The lights on the lighthouse are very beautiful at night. You can watch the night view when you are tired and then go to Pichaiyuan on Zhongshan Road.

Playing Tips

1. There is no need to walk on that long bridge. One is tiring and the other is that you will feel bored, because it is not as good as the one seen from a distance when you walk across it. Standing on the beach and taking pictures It's enough for taking pictures, but few locals go there.

2. It is very close to the train station, so you can visit the nearby Catholics and the train station, and then go west to Lu Xun Park, Badaguan, Hong Kong Road, and May Fourth Square.

3. It’s better not to buy the snacks sold near the Zhanqiao attractions. Either they are inedible or they are too expensive. If you want to eat, you can go to Pichaiyuan on Zhongshan Road. This is mentioned in many guides for visiting Qingdao, but as a Qingdao native I can tell you responsibly that we will never eat there, and the food sold there is not what we usually eat. If you want to eat more authentically, I recommend the nameless snacks and restaurants under the Catholic Church, and the Boat Song Fish Dumplings on Qutangxia Road.

◆Transportation: 6; 26; 202; 217. Get off at Zhanqiao Station. You can see the seaside when you get off. It’s a free attraction that doesn’t charge tickets, and the transportation is very convenient. If you happen to come here after coming out of the train station, it will only take 10 minutes on foot.

Locals’ favorite bathing beaches TOP4

Cities close to the sea are always filled with a romantic and comfortable atmosphere. There are unique bathing beaches here, which are refreshing all summer long. Among them, the first bathing beach is recognized as the best; the second bathing beach has more rocks and is a holy place for taking wedding photos; the old man bathing beach, golden beach and silver beach are far from the city center, but There are relatively few tourists and the sand quality is better.

△ by Hangzi Honey

NO1, the first bathing beach: is located in Huiquan Bay, which is the largest natural beach bathing beach in Asia, with a beach of 580 meters long and more than 40 meters wide. It is surrounded by mountains on three sides and is surrounded by lush green trees. Modern high-rise buildings and traditional villa buildings are cleverly combined together, and the scenery is very beautiful. The water in the bay is clear, the waves are small, the beach is flat and the slope is gentle, and the sand is fine and soft. As a bathing beach, the natural conditions are extremely superior. The nearby beach is shaped like a crescent moon with blue waves and golden sand. The water in the bay is clear, the waves are small, the beach is flat and the slope is gentle, and the sand is fine and soft, making it very suitable for surfing and other marine entertainment activities.

NO2, Second Beach : also known as "Taipingjiao Beach". There are fewer people in the second bath than in the first bath. It has a gentle slope, soft sand, small waves, clean water, and a large beach area. The beach in the west of the bath has many pebbles in various shapes, and the sand is finer than that in the first bath. It is suitable for children to dig for sand gold. It is recommended to swim and surf in Erba during the tourist season. On auspicious days, the second bath becomes a holy place for wedding photos.

NO3, Shilaoren Beach: On the south side of the cliff facing the sea at the foot of Wushan Mountain, there is a 17-meter-high stone pillar 100 meters away from the shore. It looks like an old man sitting in the blue waves. It is known as "Shilaoren". This is an important feature of Shilaoren Scenic Spot. logo. If you are a materialist, then the luxurious scenery of Shilaoren Beach should be your first choice. It is closer to Mount Laoshan. You can enjoy the slightly salty sea breeze while looking at the beautiful and magnificent mountains in the distance. The open-air bathing beach here has been catching up with the first bathing beach in recent years. Every midsummer, the beach is also crowded with people. Unlike Yiyu, most of them are new-style young people who come from the city in their cars to ride jet skis and skateboard on the waves. Surfing is full of vitality everywhere. And "Old Man Stone" stands in the middle of the sea not far away, observing everything calmly and indifferently.

NO4, Qingdao Golden Beach: is one of the beaches 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". The open trumpet shape facing the mountain on the east side of the Golden Beach allows the strong sea breeze blowing from the Yellow Sea to set off waves that always rush onto the beach in small groups, making the narrow beach look particularly spectacular.

Tips: This is a sea. If you like, go and step in the sea water. There are many swimsuit sellers around, so be sure to bargain. There are also facial kinis, haha. The fetish invented by Qingdao aunt is now mass-produced, and the brand is protected.
