Autumn scenery of the Expo Park.

The Expo Park is a large entertainment and sightseeing botanical garden that integrates garden and horticultural displays, sightseeing and photography, mountain climbing and fitness, parent-child entertainment, and cultural learning. Covering an area of about 187 hectares, the park is lush with trees, fresh air, and about 1,700 species of plants, with a vegetation coverage rate of up to 71%. The park is laid out in a spatial structure of "two axes and twelve gardens," including the north-south "Flower Avenue Axis" and the east-west "Shady Avenue Axis," as well as twelve themed gardens such as the Science Garden, Tea Garden, Flower Garden, and Mountain Garden. Visitors can stroll along the Flower Avenue to visit the International Garden, then head to the Earth Pond, Theme Landscape Square, and Sky Water, and then climb up to the Science Garden to visit the Theme Pavilion and the Botanical Pavilion. Nearly 100 domestic and international exhibition gardens from the 2014 Qingdao World Horticultural Expo have been preserved, which are scattered throughout the park, providing visitors with a rich viewing experience.
