I've been to Qingdao five times!! My favorite citywalk route in Qingdao citywalk!!
Qingdao's old town is just too beautiful!
My citywalk route, super healing!
Train Station→Zhan Bridge→Yin Yu Alley--Turn at the corner of University Road onto Longjiang Road→Longhua Road→Huangxian Road→Signal Hill→Xiaoyu Hill
There are ice cream shops, coffee shops, street food stalls, and streets full of artistic and romantic vibes
Everything looks good with a casual snap!! The night view is also very photogenic!!
Tired from walking, we followed the crowd and casually walked into a local cuisine restaurant!
Didn't expect it to be so popular!
Sitting in the small courtyard at night is very comfortable~
Sea intestine rice, the sea intestines are fresh, tender, and smooth, and they taste especially good with rice!!
Big courtyard's signature meat
Duangduang's pork belly
The fat and lean parts are soft and glutinous, with the fragrance of preserved vegetables
Sweet but not greasy, this sauce has lured me to eat a lot of rice!
And there's the panda dessert, so cute and lovely!

Qingdao | Travel Guide Day 1
You can stay near Zhongshan Road on the first day.
One very convenient aspect of touring in Qingdao is that
the various attractions are very close to each other,
and you can walk almost the entire way.
Thus, you can visit many attractions in one day
and it's very relaxing.
📍Zhanqiao Pier Area: P1-P2
To see the seagulls, it's suggested to walk to the Zhanqiao Pier Area around 10 a.m. There are many professional photographers, uncles and aunties, by the seaside. If you're traveling alone, you can pay them to take photos (they have good photography skills and can guide your poses).
📍Yinyu Alley: P3-P7
Yinyu Alley has many exquisite shops, such as coffee shops, clothing stores, jewelry stores, etc. The bagels and milk sold at the coffee shop at the entrance are very delicious, and you can have a brunch here.
📍Church: P8-P9
The ticket to enter the church is 10 yuan each.
📍Signal Hill Park: P10-P11
From the top of Signal Hill Park, you can overlook parts of the city. It's recommended to take a taxi directly to the west gate entrance. Entering from the west gate allows you to reach the top of the hill the fastest. There is no fee to enter the park; however, there is a revolving staircase at the top that requires a ticket to enter. Personally, I don't recommend it, as the view from the staircase is not much different from the view outside...
📍Lu Xun Park: P12-P15
Lu Xun Park is by the seaside, where you can enjoy a deep visit. The beachside is very photogenic.
📍Qinyu Road: P16
Qinyu Road is most famous for the "Lonely Tree," which you can find by searching "Lonely Tree" on the map for navigation. You need to queue up to take photos here. There are many cafes (especially recommend Wilder) and restaurants on Qinyu Road. Through the windows of the cafes, you can directly see the sea and the sunset. Recommendations for cafes and restaurants will be covered in a separate post later.
📍Little Qingdao Park: P17-P18
There is no entrance fee for Little Qingdao Park. In fact, the entire island is quite small, and you can quickly walk around it. If you like to watch the sunset, you can also do so at Little Qingdao Park, where the view from the island is another different scenery.

we 'standby' at ZhanQiao pier
one of the many symbol landmark of Qingdao, even so for the logo of the Tsingtao beer.. the unassuming standalone little chinese pavillion as a pier, extended by the colonist Germans in 1931 is a sight to behold.. what makes it memorable is watch the strong waves hitting the piers walls, gazing the yellow sea, admired some parts of skyline of old Qingdao merging with the new modern tall buildings.. great for couples.

Qingdao is so romantic in autumn!
👍️Recommended reason: There are fewer tourists in Qingdao in autumn, but the scenery is still beautiful, with autumn scenery and seagulls. Highly recommended!

Watch the sunrise at Shilaoren Bathing Beach, see the beautiful pines and cypresses and the sea at Qingdao Sculpture Park, take a walk at Haizhilian Park (it's really beautiful and there are few people), and relax and watch the sunset at Xiaomaidao. The pink muhly grass on Xiaomaidao is super beautiful! There are also some roses and foxtail grass in Haizhilian Park, which are all very beautiful to take photos with. Qingdao is amazing!

🌴 Accommodation
It is recommended to choose accommodation near Qingdao Station or May Fourth Square
🌴 Travel tips
1. If you take the train, choose Qingdao Station, which is about a 10-minute walk to Zhanqiao Pier, and there are many accommodations nearby!
2. You can choose the subway and bus for transportation. The bus is called "Qindao Tong E-Card," and the subway is "Qingdao Metro." It is difficult to find shared bikes in Qingdao (and they are difficult to park, so it is not recommended to ride shared bikes)
3. Try not to drive by yourself, as parking is not very convenient, and you may get a lot of tickets
4. Bring a jacket to the beach, as the temperature difference between morning and evening is large, and the sea breeze is really cool
5. Be sure to wear sunscreen, even if the sun is not out, as there is still ultraviolet light on cloudy days, and you may get tanned or sunburned!

Qingdao is a beautiful coastal city with many tourist attractions worth visiting. Here are some recommendations:

Little Qingdao is not large in overall area, but it has a strong romantic atmosphere. Walking along the periphery of the island, you can enjoy the blue sea and scattered reefs, feel the cool sea breeze, and it is a good place for photo check-in and tourism.
- Signal Hill: Also known as "Flag Hill", in 1898, the Germans built a signal guidance station for commanding ships to enter and leave the port based on the favorable terrain on the mountain, hence the name Signal Hill. There are three red dome mushroom buildings of different heights on the top of the mountain, which are viewing buildings, implying the three red torches used for signal transmission in ancient China. It is not difficult to climb the mountain, and you can reach the top in ten minutes. It is a commanding height in the old city of Qingdao, where you can overlook the old city of Qingdao, with red tiles and green trees, blue sea and blue sky in sight, giving you a feeling of a fairy tale town.

Qingdao·Zhanqiao.
It can be said to be a landmark attraction in Qingdao. I came from Rizhao and suddenly felt that there were a lot of people...
My impression of Zhanqiao is not how good Zhanqiao looks, but how good the sea on the beach next to it looks, and the people playing by the sea are all very cute.
I read some guides and basically used this as the starting point for citywalk. From here, you can walk along the sea, then turn to Xiaoqingdao Park, and pass by Qinyu Road to know what is called a lot of people. There are people taking pictures everywhere, okay. Basically, I can't stop walking all the way...
