This is my second time to Qingdao, a beautiful coastal city, and I feel that Qingdao has become even more beautiful.

My first stop was to get off the plane at Qingdao's new airport. When I arrived at the new airport, I felt completely new and Qingdao's infrastructure was constantly improving.

So I am very interested in sharing this nearly 4-hour walking tour video of Qingdao with you. I hope you all like this long video.

-------------------⭐⭐
Qingdao, in China’s eastern Shandong province, is a port city of skyscrapers, parks and beaches bordering the Yellow Sea. It's known for its beer, a legacy of the German occupation (1898-1914).

-------------------⭐⭐
Why is Qingdao famous?
-------------------⭐⭐
The city is the terminus of an east-west railway line and is linked by rail with the ports of Yantai and Weihai. It is also a large fishing port and is renowned for its parks and beaches. In 1984 Qingdao was designated one of China's “open” cities as part of a new policy inviting foreign investment.

As Qingdao continues to attract tourists and international businesses from around the world, the abundance of natural beauty, talented human resources, three central business districts, and the new Blue Silicon Valley continue to lure foreign investment. Qingdao, known as China’s Sailing City, is a popular tourist destination during the spring, summer, and fall. The city has decent air quality that is most always better than that of Beijing or Shanghai.

Qingdao annually hosts the International Sailing Week, SINO CES, and International Beer Festival. The Clipper Round The World Yacht Race is hosted bi-annually.

Qingdao, located in the southeast part of Shandong Province, is a beautiful seaside city. It is near to the Yellow Sea to the east and south, Yantai to the northeast, Weifang to the west and Rizhao to the southwest. Qingdao is one of the most beautiful coastal cities in China. Qingdao Port has been open to 177 ports around the world, bringing Qingdao to the most prosperous city in Shandong.

Tourists who visit Qingdao can explore cultural relics like churches, historic German architecture and former residence of celebrities in the Qingdao Old Town while viewing beautiful natural landscapes including parks, bathing beaches in coastal areas.

Be sure to go to Beer Street to taste the local Tsingtao beer whose best partner is always barbecue.

In addition, Pichai Food Street, Yunxiao Road Food Street, and Mai Island seafood Street offer the freshest seafood, and authentic Qingdao snacks. Qingdao International Beer Festival, the biggest beer festival in Asia, is held on the second weekend of August every year and lasts for 16 days. The whole city will be decorated and people can taste beer from the world.

The first impression visitors get of Qingdao is one of a beautiful city with red tiles, green trees, blue oceans, bluer sky and the Taoist holy site of Laoshan.

Qingdao Olympic Sailing Center

Qingdao Olympic Sailing Marine Cultural Tourism Area is located in Shinan District, Qingdao City, Shandong Province, with a scenic area of 5.25Km², consisting of two major areas: the Underwater World and the Olympic Sailing Center.

    七八年前高中毕业旅行去了青岛,因为一些事情没能好好游览,看了这个视频发现青岛真的挺漂亮的,希望以后有机会能再去一次。另外好几年没出去逛了,发现这些小吃街看起来好干净,那么大的人流量地上基本看不见垃圾,国人素质真的世界天花板了,就算是小日子也比不上。

    十一月上旬我也在青岛、济南,天气还没转冷。在石老人海滨溜达,颇觉惬意悠然。有诗一首: 落潮声远海天宽,日照平沙暖岸澜。人在画中知画意,诗吟山水自为欢。 (平水韵 十四寒)
