? If I remember correctly, I visited Qingdao in 1996. That trip to Shandong, the Confucius Temple in Qufu, the heavy rain in Weihai, and the cable car in Laoshan, Qingdao, left a deep impression on me. What will I leave behind when I come to Qingdao again after fifteen years? Maybe it’s to commemorate, maybe it’s because I have the habit of writing a few sentences, maybe it’s for something else... The night before I left Qingdao, I sat alone in front of the computer in the business center of Shangri-La Hotel, sorting out I have my own thoughts...

? The beautiful tour guide said: Qingdao's "three weirdos" summarize the characteristics of Qingdao: beer is sold in plastic bags; walking is faster than driving; A girl marries a foreigner. These three sentences mean that Tsingtao Beer is Qingdao’s business card and a pillar industry with a long history and is well-known at home and abroad. One of the meanings of Qingdao people’s “Hajiu” is that they only drink the beer of that day; the other is that Qingdao is a hilly terrain and there is no one. The road is straight, so Qingdao people do not use "south, east, northwest" like other northerners to identify directions, but only "left"; third, Qingdao's housing prices are high (the minimum is 10,000 yuan), income is low, and it is far away from South Korea and Japan. Recently, many girls marry foreigners.

? But I feel that these three sentences are far from summarizing the characteristics of Qingdao, at least they do not reflect the characteristics of Qingdao as a coastal city. Xiaoyushan is located in the urban area. Although the mountain is not high, you can see it from a distance. When you climb the mountain, you can have a panoramic view of most of Qingdao city, with red buildings, green trees, blue sea and blue sky. Walking on the trestle, the sea and sky meet in front, and there are beach bathing beaches on the left and right. , behind you are row upon row of skyscrapers, the exterior glass of the building complements the sea water, making it particularly bright; being in the Badaguan Scenic Area makes people marvel at the charm of a coastal city: blue water, rolling waves, black reefs, Coupled with the quiet and wide roads and the European-style buildings of different styles with various European trees and flowers, it is no wonder that this place has become a wedding photo shooting base for couples. There are countless coastal cities, but it is rare for a city to embrace the sea like this. People in Qingdao can soak in the sea water and enjoy the sunshine, waves and beaches right at their doorstep. This is a gift from God to Qingdao. Here "facing the sea, spring flowers are blooming" is no longer a sentence in a poem, but real life.
