Personally, I think both cities are very good. I've been to both places. Xiamen's greening is very good. Everything about the environment is relatively suitable, but I am a girl from the north. I was not used to it when I first went to Xiamen, and the consumption there is also high. As for Qingdao, it is also a relatively livable city. It is very beautiful and is built next to the sea. The environment is particularly beautiful. , and the consumption level is lower than that of Xiamen.
Because I went to both places in the summer. It feels so hot and humid to me that I can't live without the air conditioner for a moment. Especially when in Xiamen. Both cities are close to the sea. As long as you are comparing, it still comes down to personal preference.
In terms of environment and air. I think it's more suitable for people to live down there. The air quality in Xiamen is quite high. Qingdao is relatively weak. If only because I went to both cities with different people. Also because I am a northerner. So I prefer Qingdao.
Those days in Qingdao. I like it in the morning, or in the evening. Take a walk on the beach. Listen to some of the street performers at Music Square. Just got on a bus. Don't ask where to go. Come down wherever you see beautiful scenery. If you are tired, just go back the same way and go back to where you are staying to rest.
The pace in Xiamen is very fast. After a day of shopping, it is not suitable for all kinds of things. Although its streets are wide and clean, although the scenery on the island is beautiful, although Xiamen University is very beautiful, etc. But it just feels a lot inappropriate, maybe because northerners go to the south, especially the south near the sea! I was always sweating endlessly, and my body felt very wet and unclean. Although my skin was very good those days, I lost ten pounds due to hunger because I couldn't get used to their food. When I arrived, all my clothes became sacks on my body.
But Qingdao is different. It is also hot and humid, but it is within my acceptable range. Qingdao also has various kinds of pasta. Although I don’t like seafood, I can still accept some other things, and this city The consumption level is lower than that of Xiamen, so I prefer it.
So no matter which city you want to live in, it is all because of your own likes and preferences, as well as the result of considering various factors.
