#Travel itinerary ✔️ Day 1 1️⃣ 5.4 Square I took pictures during the day and went to see the night view at night. 2️⃣ Yongga Hot Pot It's an all-you-can-eat hot pot restaurant where the hot pot ingredients are spinning like conveyor belt sushi.

It didn't smell like eggs and was delicious. ✔️ Day 3 1️⃣ Zanga Baobao Pie (Wu Si Guang Zhuang Store) I went there because I wanted to eat Chinese breakfast.

I chose doujiang, youtiao, and wonton and it cost me 17 yuan in total. 2️⃣ Pawang Chai There is a Pawang Chai store at Qingdao Airport. It is on the upper floor of the check-in counter.

Qingdao is such a pretty place. It has such a beautiful view. It's also the reason I bought a plane ticket. 📍No.24 Fushan Slip Road, Shinan District, Qingdao 266003 China 小鱼山 In Qingdao, Xiaoyushan Park (小魚山公園) is one of the most accessible and pretty parks in the city. When you look at Qingdao from here, you can see the blue sea and the old-fashioned German-style buildings. It's also called a little old Europe in China. :) When I went up to the observation deck and looked down, the red roofs stood out even more, so I felt the charm of Qingdao a lot.✨ ✔️Park entrance fee ❗️10 yuan per person, international student ID card holders get a discount. ✔️Opening hours 07:30 ~ 18:30 Shinhosan and Sinyosan are famous for their great views, but I recommend Sinyosan more ♥ Soeosan is closer to the sea and offers a beautiful view! If you go to Qingdao, be sure to visit here!! 😍🧡😍🧡 #Tourist attraction review #Soeosan Park #Qingdao travel #Qingdao #China travel

Xiaoyushan Park is a tourist attraction where you can overlook such a wonderful Qingdao at a glance✨ You must visit Xiaoyushan Park where you can see everything from the sea to small towns full of orange roofs : ) 📍 Xiaoyushan Park, Qingdao, China #Overseas travel # Xiaoyushan Park #China travel #Travel #Let's go on a trip #China #Qingdao #Travel destination recommendation #Good place to take pictures

Chin rating (5 stars is the highest) Recommended: 🌟🌟🌟🌟 Highlight recommendation🤤 - Xiaoyushan Scenic Area is located on a small hillside in Qingdao can clearly see the face of Qingdao city - The main building at the top of Xiaoyu Mountain is "Lanchao Pavilion", an 18-meter-high three-story octagonal eaves-style building. Visitors can come and take pictures #doublechinlife #doublechinlife #chin #travel to the mainland #OverseasTravel

#hellohalloween Golden light spills over Qingdao’s rugged coastline, painting the rocks and waves in shades of amber and blue. Few cities blend seaside calm and urban rhythm like this — where winding coastal roads lead to viewpoints overlooking distant islands and the gentle hum of the city fades into the sound of the sea. 🌊✨ 🏖 Must-See Spots: 📍 Badaguan Scenic Area – stroll past century-old European villas framed by pine trees. 📍 Xiaoyushan Park – climb for panoramic views of the bay and its crimson sunsets. 📍 No. 2 Bathing Beach – soft sand, surfers, and reflections that glow like liquid gold at dusk. 🚴♂️ Local Tip: Rent a bike and follow the coastal path towards Huiquan Bay. Each curve of the road offers a new perspective — from quiet parks to dramatic cliffs where locals fish under the fading light. 💡 Best Time: Late afternoon till sunset — when Qingdao transforms into a watercolor painting.

1. Daehakro Red Wall, a Hot Spot on Social Media Daehakro's red wall became famous after being photographed by a wanghong (internet celebrity). The wall stretches long, but the corner with the Daehakro sign is the photo spot. I even saw couples taking wedding photos. 2. Hayao Miyazaki Mural Street A mural street lined with cute souvenir shops. There are murals featuring Totoro, Ponyo, Tom and Jerry, Hello Kitty, and other popular characters like Crayon Shin-chan and Rabubu. People line up to take pictures in front of the murals. There's a cafe called One Coffee with a "Made in Qingdao" sign, which is also a popular photo spot. 3. Signal Mountain Observatory It's a bit challenging due to the many stairs, but you can enjoy the scenery of the red roof and the blue sea. 4. Badaguan Scenic Area, No. 2 Bathing Beach This is Qingdao's representative historical and recreational area, but I felt like I was strolling through a local park, so I ended up going to No. 2 Bathing Beach. Here we are. 4. Little Fish Mountain Park Observatory The mountain isn't very high, and I was a little disappointed with the Badaguan Scenic Area, but the view from the observatory—the sea, the German-style buildings, and the sunset—was breathtaking. 5. May Fourth Square (Light Show) The evening light show at Qingdao's landmark, May Fourth Square, is truly breathtaking. ⭐️Except for May Fourth Square, all the other tourist attractions were close by, so I walked there. #LittleFishMountainPark #QingdaoTravel #MayFourthSquare #HayaoMiyazaki #MuralStreet #LittleFishMountainPark #ShinhoShanPark #OverseasTravel

My weekend trip to Qingdao with a friend was short but fulfilling. As soon as we arrived, we stopped at the Marine Center. The sea beyond the buildings was a deep blue, and the red sculptures of May Fourth Square were clearly visible at the end. Seeing this iconic cityscape in one glance made me realize, "Wow, I'm really in Qingdao!" Next, we headed to the Little Fish Mountain Observatory. The stairs were steeper than I expected, but the climb was worth it. The city's skyscrapers, the sea, and the red-roofed European buildings unfolded like a painting. The breeze cooled us down, and we spent a long time taking pictures with our friends. Our final stop, the Mural Street, had another charm. The narrow alleys were filled with colorful paintings, making it a pleasant stroll. Each mural told a charming story, making us stop and take photos. It was a short trip, but it was a trip that captured the sea, the city, and the artistic atmosphere. It was a special weekend trip to Qingdao with friends. 🌊🍺 #TravelPlanning #OverseasTravel #ChinaTravel #QingdaoTravel #SeptemberTravelSupportEvent #SeptemberTravelSupport

#chinatravel Perched just 60 meters above sea level, Xiaoyushan (Little Fish Hill) is a serene, classical-style hilltop garden nestled beside China Ocean University in Qingdao. With over 84% of its 2.5 hectares covered in greenery, it offers panoramic views of the city’s iconic red roofs, blue seas, and green trees. Once home to military structures during the Qing and German colonial periods, the hill was renamed in tribute to Mount Yu, a famous Buddhist site in Shandong. Key highlights include Lanchao Pavilion, a three-story octagonal tower offering sweeping views, and two elegant pavilions—Biboting and Yongcuiting—each reflecting traditional architectural beauty. The site once hosted a Buddhist retreat known as Zhan Shan Jing She, enriching its spiritual history. Today, with decorative ceramic murals and sea-inspired design elements, Xiaoyushan blends nature, architecture, and culture into one peaceful retreat, making it a must-visit spot within Qingdao’s 4A-rated coastal scenic area. #travel #trip #china #staycation #thingstodo #myitinerary
