#Park time, make a day of it. The Zhongahan Park, situated in Qingdao, is beautiful throughout the year, yes, even during the winter months. On this fairly cold winters day, we visited the park and the surrounding attractions. The views from the park, are magnificent, especially when the sunlight compliments the moment. There is ample seating space around the park, ranging from wooden park benches, to concrete table and chair sets. Facilities are well kept, and restrooms are redely available, throughout the park. This is a peaceful and tranquil environment, the ideal place to go to, if you want to enjoy some peace and quite. Asside from the geese and other bird life, there is no noice at all.

Friends! I just got back from Qingdao and can't wait to share with you! Although I was worried after being misled by my friends' posts, this family trip was truly amazing! 👶🏻💖 ⚠ First, the "downsides": The cherry blossom season was so crowded that the subway had to limit passenger flow (but the special cherry blossom train was breathtakingly beautiful!). Climbing Laoshan Mountain was tiring (but seeing the azaleas all over the mountain on the way down was instantly healing!). The snacks at the scenic spots were pricey (bringing your own snacks is the wise choice!). But compared to the beautiful scenery, these are nothing! 🔥 ✨【Must-visit itinerary with kids】✨ Day 1⃣ Travel through a fairy tale on the subway's cherry blossom train Take Line 11 from DaLao Station to Bei Jiu Shui, the train windows are like moving picture frames! The kids were glued to the window counting cherry blossom trees 🌳, and when we arrived, we went straight to Cherry Valley to pick cherries and experience "cherry blossom freedom"! (Secret tip: Enjoying the cherry blossoms for free from the subway is much better than buying tickets!) Day 2⃣ A day trip through ancient times In the morning, we took Hanfu photos at Baihua Park, and the kids, dressed in rented Hanfu, chased butterflies 🦋. In the afternoon, we found handmade hairpins at the Shi Mei An Plum Blossom Market, and in the evening, we watched the jade orchid night lights at Taiqing Palace. A Taoist priest even gave us a safety amulet! 🎎 Day 3⃣ Mountain and sea adventure mode Wear non-slip shoes for the Ju Feng Azalea Slope! The kids walked the whole way themselves and were so excited to see the azaleas covering the mountain that they shouted, "It's like a rainbow has fallen down"! 🌈 We went straight down to Yangkou Beach and collected shells until sunset 🌅. 🌟【Mom's secret tips】🌟 ✅ Wear light-colored matching outfits + straw bags, and you'll be the center of attention wherever you go. ✅ Rush to Zhongshan Park's Cherry Blossom Avenue at 8 am to capture the perfect shot. ✅ The Laoshan scenic bus is super convenient, and the drivers tell jokes. ✅ Must-try: Piduziyuan tofu pudding, Yingkou Road Seafood Market (transparent processing fees). ⚠ Avoid these pitfalls: ❌ Don't buy overpriced flower garlands at the scenic spot entrance; you can get 3 for 10 yuan at the night market. ❌ The jade orchid blooming period at Taiqing Palace is long, so no need to rush. ❌ You can bargain at the Cherry Valley farmhouse restaurants in Laoshan, don't be ripped off. Looking at the 3000+ photos on my phone now, I can't help but smile! Qingdao is truly an underrated treasure for families. The romance of the mountains, sea, and city is so captivating that even the kids learned to say, "Facing the sea, with spring blossoms warm" ～🌊🌸

The magnolia is fragrant, with a "bright white dress", the magnolia is in full bloom, and its fragrance is spreading. The spring breeze gently prunes its buds, white, pink, red, purple, Layered upon layer, spreading out in all directions. The magnolia flowers in Qingdao’s Zhongshan Park, Donghai Road and Hong Kong Road are in full bloom. The magnolia flowers are pointing upwards, graceful and elegant, blooming among the clouds, untainted by dust, waiting for the gazes looking up.

50 Ways to Explore Zhongshan Park in Qingdao (2/50): Four Ponds for Lotus Appreciation ‼️Why is there a tradition of admiring lotus flowers at Zhongshan Park? 📣During the late Qing Dynasty, while Sun Yat-sen was engaged in revolutionary activities in Japan, he received significant support from his Japanese landlord, Tanaka Takashi. In May 1918, during a visit to Japan, Sun Yat-sen presented four lotus seeds, symbolizing pure friendship, to Tanaka Takashi as a token of gratitude for his support of the Chinese revolution. After Tanaka Takashi's passing, his descendants entrusted these four lotus seeds to the Japanese "Dr. Lotus," Ohga Ichiro, for cultivation. The lotus variety was named "Sun Wen Lotus." 📣In 1995, to commemorate the 15th anniversary of the sister-city relationship between Qingdao and Shimonoseki, Japan, the president of the Shimonoseki Japan-China Friendship Association, Kaneda Mitsuo, gifted the "Sun Wen Lotus" to Qingdao. It was planted in a pond within Zhongshan Park, which was subsequently renamed the Sun Wen Lotus Pond. 📣The "Sun Wen Lotus" is a single-petal lotus variety with around 21 petals, exhibiting a delicate pink hue resembling an inverted bell. (Figure 4) ❤️There are four lotus-viewing ponds in Zhongshan Park, from north to south: 1️⃣Small West Lake—Admire lotus flowers, water lilies, fish, and common moorhens. 2️⃣Sun Wen Lotus Pond—Appreciate the Sun Wen Lotus and savor the historical and cultural significance. 3️⃣New Water Surface—Enjoy water lilies, black swans, and the metasequoia forest. 4️⃣Small Water Surface—Admire water lilies (primarily white water lilies). (Locations are marked in Figure 18) 🧡Confused about the difference between lotus, sacred lotus, and water lilies? 🅰️Lotus, belonging to the Nelumbonaceae family and Nelumbo genus, is a common name for the two species "sacred lotus" and "American lotus," as well as numerous cultivated varieties. Therefore, "lotus" generally refers to the sacred lotus. 🅱️Water lilies belong to the Nymphaeaceae family and Nymphaea genus. Thus, water lilies have a distinct name and are not referred to as lotus. 🅰️Lotus plants have both emergent and floating leaves, with most extending above the water surface and having complete, undamaged leaves. They are emergent aquatic plants. 🅱️Water lily leaves all lie flat on the water surface, are small, and have notches. They are floating aquatic plants. 🅰️Lotus flowers rise above the water, exhibiting a more expansive posture with various shapes like bowl-shaped, cup-shaped, spherical, saucer-shaped, and dancing. 🅱️Water lilies have both floating and emergent varieties, with common flower shapes being star-shaped and cup-shaped. They are smaller than lotus flowers and have slender, pointed petals. 🅰️Lotus flowers bloom during the day and close at night. 🅱️Some water lily varieties bloom during the day and close at night, while others bloom at night and close during the day. The specific closing time depends on the geographical location. ❗️Any plant with lotus roots and seedpods is a lotus (sacred lotus). Water lilies do not have these features. ㊙️Tips for lotus appreciation: ✅The blooming times of different lotus varieties vary slightly, allowing you to see different varieties in bloom from late June to early August. ✅Rainy days offer a unique beauty, capturing raindrops swirling on lotus leaves. When a leaf is full of water, it tilts, pouring the water onto a lower leaf. The writer Shi Hang once described this scene as "toasting and exchanging cups," which I find apt.

Fenglinjian, as the name suggests, means maple forest in the mountain stream. Maple trees are classified into three types: triangular maple, pentagonal maple, heptagonal maple, and enneagonal maple. The maple trees in Fenglinjian are mostly Acer truncatum. The temperature in the mountain stream is slightly higher than other places, and the red maples in Fenglinjian also turn red later than in other places, such as Laoshan and other high mountains. Every year in early winter, the frost dyes the maple leaves red. The maple trees throughout the mountain stream are mesmerizing under the flickering sunlight, which is very pleasing to the eyes and spectacular. The mountain stream road is not long. You can walk straight along the U-shaped wooden plank road and then return. It is enough to walk slowly and appreciate it for about 30 minutes. Recommended: Take a stroll and immerse yourself in the maple forest.

The chicken feet are soft and chewy. The salty flavor of the rice wine is great for hot weather. 🌶️Spicy Chicken Each piece is crispy and tender. The peanuts are also crispy.
