Qingdao is located on the southeast coast of Shandong Peninsula. It is a pearl on the coast of the Yellow Sea, a classic of international architecture, a famous city with fragrant beer and a hot spot for opening to the outside world.
In my memory, the most pleasing scenery in Qingdao is standing in front of the yacht string and sitting at the bow of the sampan far from the land; Fly straight along the coastline through the porthole of the sightseeing helicopter; It is in the pass near Mrding. From a distance, through the clear air, buildings are like lines, such as bonsai, lying quietly between mountains and seas.
Overview of scenic spots Qingdao's tourism is mainly divided into two categories: humanities and nature, of which free and open scenic spots account for the vast majority. The old city is dominated by humanistic customs tours, while the coastal areas are dominated by coastal scenery tours. The famous Badaguan, Catholic Church, Christian Church, Olympic Sailing Center, May 4th Square, Ocean World, Binhai Pedestrian Street, Laoshan Scenic Area, Tsingtao Brewery City, and more squares, parks, wineries, museums, celebrities' former residences and beaches dotted at the end of the peninsula. It can be said that Qingdao has different tourist hotspots all year round.
TOP5 1, a must-see scenic spot, Badaguan, named after the ancient famous customs in Badaguan Scenic Area, refers to Zijingguan Road, Ning Wuguan Road, Shaoguan Road, Wushengguan Road, Jiayuguan Road, Hanguguan Road, Zhengyangguan Road, Linhuaiguan Road, Juyongguan Road and Shanhaiguan Road. One of the five most beautiful blocks in China, Huashi Villa and Princess Building are its representative buildings.
The landscape is concentrated and the flower street is unique: cedar in Zijingguan Road, begonia maple in Ning Wuguan Road, peach blossom in Shaoguan Road, pentagonal maple in Jiayuguan Road, Ziwei in Zhengyangguan Road, cypress in Huaiyuan Road, ginkgo in Juyongguan Road and fatong in Shanhaiguan Road. The four seasons are evergreen here, and the flowers and trees are colorful.
Most of it depends on the appearance of the building. However, Badaguan is also the location of wedding photos. Take a walk and you'll see it. Haha, if the bride is more beautiful, it will still be very eye-catching The beach is at the end. In fact, this is not a natural scenery, but a feeling.

2. Qingdao Laoshan Scenic Area Laoshan Scenic Area towers above Laoshan Mountain and stands in the Yellow Sea. There is a saying among local people: "Mount Tai is not as old as the East China Sea, although it is high in clouds". Li Bai, a poet in the Tang Dynasty, once praised the beauty of Laoshan with the poem "I once lived in the East China Sea, and Laoshan entrusted Xia Zi". The main peak of Laoshan Mountain is1132.7m above sea level, which is one of the national key scenic spots identified by the State Council. Laoshan Scenic Area is actually composed of several parts. If go on road trip is more convenient, you can visit several places in one day. I went to Beijiushui, and it was the dry season, so the stone became the protagonist. I can choose a big stone and lie on it when the sun is fine, which is very comfortable. In addition, there will be stalls set up by farmers at the entrance that day. Be sure to buy some. The taste is really unique.

3. Trestle Qingdao Trestle is one of the scenic spots in Qingdao seaside scenic area. 1982 the State Council announced the first national scenic spot, the first national AAAA scenic spot. The earliest military-specific artificial wharf building in Qingdao is now an important landmark building and famous scenic spot in Qingdao, with a total length of 440 meters and a width of 8 meters and a steel-concrete structure. There is a semi-circular breakwater at the southern end of the bridge. There is a two-story octagonal building called "Huilan Pavilion" in the dike. Tourists stand beside the pavilion and enjoy the waves coming in layers. "Flying Pavilion and Ringing" is known as one of the "Ten Scenes of Qingdao". Therefore, this is a must-see place for Qingdao. Although there were many people, we went, but the trestle was really crowded, so we could only stand on the trestle and take pictures of the surrounding scenery.

5. Qingdao Olympic Sailing Center feels good walking along the seaside, and the one over there is still very blue, very blue. Personally, I think it is much better than the sea on the other side of the trestle. Fushan Bay "Yandao Autumn Tide" is one of the top ten scenic spots in Qingdao. After the liberation of Qingdao, a munitions warehouse and a shooting range were built on Yan 'er Island. 1968 red star shipyard (i.e. beihai shipyard) was built by the Ministry of communications. Yan 'er Island was chosen as the sailing venue for the 2008 Olympic Games. After the opening of the Olympic Sailing Center, it not only hosted a number of international high-end sailing events; At the same time, it also showed the Olympic sailing culture to tourists from all walks of life.

The earliest shop has a history of more than 80 years, and it has also been rated as "Top Ten Famous Foods in Qingdao". The practice pays attention to stewing the ribs until the meat is not deboned, fresh and delicious, and the rice is also very fragrant. Usually you can choose Chinese cabbage ribs or kelp ribs.
Scallop scallop is also one of the seafood dishes with high serving rate. Because its meat is tender, fat, sweet and delicious, it always gives people a sense of satisfaction.
Tips: ① Steaming, splashing oil or barbecue are common practices, and some of them are accompanied by garlic vermicelli to pour juice, which highlights the umami flavor. ② It is best not to eat skirt folds and visceral sludge around scallops, which may lead to poisoning. 6.

Tip: ① Because of the addition of traditional Chinese medicine (such as red dates, angelica dahurica, Amomum villosum, etc. ), not only has the taste of cola, but also has the familiar taste of herbal tea, and it is properly prepared, with small breath and unique flavor, which integrates the three functions of relieving summer heat, clearing heat and reducing fire. ② Ordinary plastic bottles are about 2-3 yuan/bottle, and large bottles are about 7 yuan/bottle, which are generally sold in roadside stalls and freezers. Shopping specialties 1, Tsingtao beer
Tsingtao beer is synonymous with Qingdao. It's not enough to drink bulk puree beer. You can take a few cans home. Among them, Tsingtao Brewery "scenic altar" is recommended, each altar is 500ml. Different from ordinary Tsingtao beer, the jar packaging is engraved with the most famous scenic spots in Qingdao, which is unique and memorable, and is suitable for collection or gift to relatives and friends.
Tips note that bottled wine can't get on the plane, so it's more convenient to buy cans. 2. seafood
Qingdao is surrounded by the sea on three sides and is rich in seafood, such as shredded squid, fish fillets, shrimps and other dried seafood. Authentic taste, exquisite packaging, easy to carry, very suitable for gifts and self-preservation. Dry goods are recommended to be purchased in large supermarkets such as MacKay, Wal-Mart, Liqun and Carrefour, and the quality is guaranteed; Fresh seafood can be bought in Nanshan Market and Sifang Road Market. Variety, more affordable. However, when buying, you should bargain more and pay attention to whether it is sufficient.
3. Shell souvenirs
Coastal cities always need cheap handicrafts made of seafood. Such as shell necklaces, shell wind chimes, shell carvings, conch coral ornaments, etc. You can buy it at the stalls or commercial streets along the coast. Along the coastal plank road, such as May 4th Square, there are many vendors selling conch, about 2- 10 yuan/one, which is affordable but not exquisite. Qingdao Shell Carving Factory, located in Yan 'an Third Road, can buy exquisite and high-grade shell carvings.

Qingdao Teahouse and China are mainly located in Shinan District, especially Tea Art Street, which is fragrant all year round.

5. Sorghum
Sorghum caramel is a traditional famous soft candy in Qingdao, which has always been known as "elastic, tough and soft". It is not sticky, sweet and refreshing. They are sold in supermarkets, and the shelf life can be one year.
Qingdao dialect, a practical information language, is a common local language, and most of them do not use the words "hen" and "hen", but use other monosyllabic adjectives, such as "Erku" to mean bitter and "sweet" to mean sweet. Especially when listening to the local people, we often hear two modal particles, "An" and "Ang". "An" is a rising tone, indicating strong suspicion; "Ang" is a falling tone, indicating promise and affirmation.
But most locals can communicate in Mandarin, so there is no need to worry about communication during the trip.
common language
Where is the fan? -Where are you going?
Ha, beer. -Have a beer.
Where did it come from? -Where is it?
Tips Because Qingdao came into contact with western culture earlier, many Chinese translations quoted words from Qingdao dialect. For example, the name beer was first used by Qingdao people, and the word "beer" of beer is also an out-and-out "Qingdao word". When beer entered Qingdao, our ancestors created the word "beer" to name this popular drink all over the world. Qingdao is the first city in China to use bicycles, so the translation of "bicycle" is borrowed from Qingdao dialect, but it is written as "ju" in Qingdao dialect and means "pedal" in Qingdao dialect. Post offices and postcards Qingdao's post offices are widely distributed, and there are branch offices of post offices in all districts under its jurisdiction, so it is very convenient to send postcards. The postal code is 266000.
bank
Major domestic banks have branches in Qingdao, and it is easy to find corresponding outlets near the business circle, and 24-hour ATMs are all over the city. In addition, there are local joint-stock commercial banks such as Qingdao Bank. In particular, some banks have distinctive buildings.
Tips At the beginning of the 20th century, Guantao Road, an extension of the northern section of Zhongshan Road, built a "foreigner street". In the first decade of the 20th century, with the rapid development of import and export trade, many branches of foreign banks came here to set up. In 1930s, Guantao Road has become the financial and economic center of Qingdao, known as "Qingdao's Wall Street", which affects the economy of the whole East China region and the export entrepot trade in coastal areas.

Tips When you take a taxi out of the airport, please pay attention to the silver roof when you take a taxi in Qingdao. Taxis in Chengyang District, Laoshan District or other county-level cities are not allowed to enter the urban area of Qingdao with a yellow roof. Trains Now, trains (ordinary trains and EMUs) from all over the country stop and start at the old Qingdao Railway Station near the trestle. Take Beijing as an example. At present, there are 12 high-speed trains to and from Qingdao every day, and the second-class seat is 3 14 yuan in about 5 hours. It should be noted that the source of train tickets to Qingdao on holidays is tight, and tickets have been purchased 60 days in advance. It is best to pay attention to booking tickets early.
Tips 1。 The starting price of taxis at the exit of the railway station is basically 12 yuan, and most of them are bargains (no meter) and refuse to run short distances. It is recommended to call a taxi on the street outside the railway station square, which is cheaper; Be careful not to take the red scooter. You can take the train from Jinan to Qingdao. Contact information of Jinan Railway Station: (booking) 95105105,053/KLOC-053 1-82428862；; (Inquiry) 053 1-860 12520, 86943693, 950018, 965 19.

Self-driving Qingdao highway traffic is very developed. Up to now, Qingdao has built seven expressways, including Qing Ji, Jiaozhou Bay, Liu Xi, Shuangliu, Weilai, Qilai and Yin Qing.
Driving advice
It is worth noting that it is not recommended to drive to Qingdao if it is not for the convenience along the way. Because there are many one-way streets in the old city of Qingdao, it will be illegal if you are not careful, and many private cars have occupied wide roads, and most scenic spots do not have enough parking lots, which is inconvenient. If you travel by car, you should pay attention to the following:
1. When choosing to visit Qingdao by car, you'd better choose a place with parking lots and convenient transportation. Parking in Qingdao coastal scenic spots is inconvenient, so try to avoid driving in peak season or peak period, when the parking lot is easy to be full and the parking fee is not cheap;
2. Qingdao is a hilly area, and friends with winding roads and weak sense of direction should pay more attention. If you accidentally go the wrong way, you'd better back up at once, which is much faster than coming back;
Most of the one-way streets in Qingdao are concentrated in the old city. Because the roads in the old city are narrow and there are many intersections, the speed should be slow. Pay attention to intersection signs and don't follow buses, trams, taxis and Huang Ka coaches, because the above vehicles have road traffic priority; Moreover, friends who use navigators should pay attention to switching the navigation mode to the shortest route when driving in urban areas;
4. If you go into a one-way street by mistake, don't brake suddenly or turn around in place, which will cause accidents and serious traffic jams. It is recommended to continue to go slow. Turn right at the first crossing, observe the road conditions carefully and don't stop; Don't panic if you are stopped by the traffic police on duty. Qingdao traffic police's law enforcement attitude is first-class in the country. Generally speaking, education is the main way to treat foreign drivers who violate the rules slightly, as long as they pay attention to their words, deeds and attitudes;
5, if you need to ask for directions, give you a trick-try to ask the old driver who hangs the regular number plate of the blue card, remember not to be superstitious about taxi drivers;
6. The peak time in Qingdao is 17:00- 19:00. Because the roads are narrow, the roads will be very crowded at this time. Tourists who drive by car try to avoid this time.
