Ginkgo trees in Badaguan, Qingdao.
📍Badaguan Scenic Area, Shinan District, Qingdao
🚇Take Metro Line 3 to Zhongshan Park Station, then walk for 15 minutes.
▪This year, the ginkgo trees on Juyongguan Road lost their leaves before they turned yellow. Only a few trees are still standing strong, which is a far cry from the same time in the past two years.
▪I didn't expect there to be so many people at 9–10 am, mostly middle-aged and elderly people in tour groups. There will be more people in the afternoon, but mostly young people. You can decide for yourself. Or you can come earlier, there should be no one at 8 am, but I can't get up that early.
🍂Autumn viewing route: Shaoguan Road ➠ Jiayuguan Road ➠ Ningwuguan Road ➠ Linhuaiguan Road ➠ Juyongguan Road ➠ Zhengyangguan 1st Road ➠ No. 2 Bathing Beach ➠ Huashi Building
▪The above are all in Badaguan Scenic Area. After visiting Badaguan, you can also go through Taipingjiao Park to Zhanshan 3rd Road, which also has a great ginkgo avenue!

Shandong Qingdao|Friends going to Qingdao in September, you are in luck!
Shandong Qingdao|Friends going to Qingdao in September, you are in luck!
👉 The weather in Qingdao in September is pleasant with clear skies and suitable temperatures. Moreover, there aren't too many tourists, allowing you to enjoy your trip fully.
🚇 Transportation:
✔️ It's recommended to take the train to Qingdao Station, which is right next to Zhanqiao Pier, so you can start playing immediately.
✔️ City transportation: Subway + walking. Avoid driving as parking is difficult, and don't take taxis as traffic is heavy. The city's attractions are close to each other, so walking is sufficient. Qingdao doesn't have bicycles.
✔️ Huangdao + Laoshan: The subway can reach these places, but it's far. You can rent a car.
🔓 Luggage:
You can store your luggage for free at Qingdao subway stations.
Recommended Attractions:
1⃣️ Xiaomai Island
The island is small and suitable for flower viewing. You can exit at Haiyou Road subway station, go to Haizhilian Park, and then stroll along the coastal boardwalk to Xiaomai Island.
2⃣️ Yan'er Island
If it's not the flowering season, there's no need to visit.
3️⃣ Badaguan
A district formed by intersecting streets, it's large with cream-colored villas of various national styles hidden in the summer shade. It's pleasant to walk around. Princess House and Butterfly House charge an entrance fee, but it's not necessary to go inside.
4⃣️ Second Bathing Beach
Starting from Zhongshan Park in Badaguan, walk down to the seaside to reach the Second Bathing Beach, where you can take distant beach photos.
5️⃣ Shilaoren Bathing Beach
Who would have thought that there would be so many people on the beach at 5 AM? However, this season, the sun rises from the mountains, not the sea, so it's not as beautiful. There's no need to watch the sunrise (the same goes for the Sculpture Park).
6️⃣ Emerald Garden
It's just a small road next to a residential area. Although you can take photos that give the feeling of heading towards the sea, there's no need to force it. You can stop briefly if you're passing by Laoshan.
7️⃣ Shazikou
A popular photo spot, but 50% depends on sunny weather and 40% on post-processing. If you're not visiting Laoshan and Qingshan Fishing Village, there's no need to come here specifically.
8️⃣ Xilingxia Third Road, Xilingxia First Road
Two adjacent small roads. The road from Qingdao Station to the sea is indeed photogenic, but there are many people taking photos. Also, be mindful of passing vehicles.
✨ Some Travel Tips:
🔸 Qingdao is not suitable for self-driving; the city is full of slopes, and parking is difficult.
🔸 The sea in Huangdao is cleaner than in the city, and the sand is finer. If you're bringing kids, allocate more days for Huangdao.
🔸 City attractions are highly concentrated. Plan your route and follow the navigation.
🔸 There are no shared bikes in the city. The subway is very convenient, and ride-hailing services may encounter traffic jams. The rest can be done on foot.
🔸 Longjiang Road is great for photos. It's not very long, but the murals have a strong Qingdao flavor.
🔸 Badaguan is a cluster of buildings with styles from various countries, especially beautiful in autumn.
