It is a very interesting museum. Tsingtao Beer has perfectly integrated corporate culture and business. It is fully ornamental, informative and interesting. It is a classic that deserves a five-star recommendation and is well worth a visit!
There are quite a lot of people visiting the Beer Museum in Qingdao. It is divided into Hall A and Hall B. Hall A introduces the development history of Tsingtao Beer, and Hall B shows the beer production and packaging line. You can also experience a cup of raw beer, a cup of pure draft beer, and a bag of beer beans. It is worth a visit.

Yangkou Scenic Area is very beautiful and is perfect for an early morning hike. The mist and clouds create a fairyland-like atmosphere. It's a great place to spend half a day. I prefer Yangkou Scenic Area to Taiqing.
The cable car ride is relatively short and arrives in a short time. The scenery on the mountain is nice, half mountain and half sea, it is a good place, but the water quality in Qingdao is average. I went to several bathing beaches, which were all average, especially for bathing. There are few places and they are not cheap.

There were many people during the summer vacation, and the scenic area's scheduling ability was quite good. The queues for the boat and the island bus were not long, but the submarine was too crowded, so I gave up. The island is very big, and if I just walked, my legs would be worn out in this hot weather.
Weihai is a scenic spot worth visiting. It is very crowded during the summer vacation and you need to take a boat to the island. The scenery on the island is nice and the sea breeze makes you not want to leave. There are mainly forts, warships, submarines, zoos, memorial halls and museums to visit. The historical education significance is greater than the entertainment significance.

It's a great place worth visiting. It's great to take your kids there. The scenery on the Ferris wheel is beautiful. It's very photogenic to take pictures of your kids. The performances of dolphins, sea lions and seals are also wonderful. It's just that you need to plan your time well, otherwise the whole day will be very tiring.
There were sleeping polar bears, newly seen Antarctic penguins, beluga whales that wouldn't turn back for food, and all sorts of fish. Honestly, the Ferris wheel and ticket prices were a bit steep. But the drone show we saw later was fantastic!

The area is quite remote, and a long taxi ride from Yantai. However, the scenic spots are well worth the trip, both for the site itself and for its historical and cultural significance. The bluest sea you can see in Yantai is from Penglai Pavilion. However, the yacht fees are quite high, and there's not much good food in the area. Prices are also quite high.
Yes, the weather is too hot. . . . There are also a lot of people. . . It is not recommended to come over in summer, it is too guilty. . . . All kinds of consumption are so high. . . . . The price/performance ratio is generally [scenery] OK. . .

Laohutan Ocean Park wasn't as big as I'd imagined. I even got a map before going, but once inside, I realized I didn't need one. For independent travelers like us, following the tour agency's directions was more helpful than a guide. The shows were quite good, and a must-see. And if you follow the tour agency's directions, the shows flowed seamlessly from one to the next. The park is quite old. I thought I'd be able to see it all in at least five hours, but it ended up taking just over three.
The Polar Pavilion show was fantastic. It's peak summer season, so be sure to reserve a seat in advance!
Also, you need to re-enter the Polar Pavilion with your ticket; you can't re-enter.
The Happy Theater was also nice, but it's open-air. We arrived late and it was incredibly hot, which really ruined the experience.
We didn't visit the Marine Zoo because we were exhausted, but the Coral Pavilion is a must-see. You need to find the right angle and timing for photos to be truly effective.
The Bird's Singing Forest is outside the park, a bit of a walk away. Because we visited many of the Qianguqing scenic areas and saw so many parrot shows, they were all the same, so after seeing the baby flamingos, we skipped the show and didn't return to the park. We took a taxi directly to Fisherman's Wharf. You can also see it inside Tiger Beach Park, but if you're just looking for photos, it's not necessary. It's a short walk, but after walking around for so long and exhausting, getting to Fisherman's Wharf was quite a challenge. It took about 20 minutes. We took a taxi there, took a few photos of the fishing boats, and then the seagulls. After feeding the seagulls inside the park, we lost interest and went straight to Pinhuanlou for dinner.

Qingdao Underwater World comprises seven exhibition halls. My favorite is the Dream Jellyfish Palace, the first professional jellyfish exhibition hall in mainland China. It showcases thousands of jellyfish from dozens of species, including moon jellyfish and ribbon jellyfish. It uses interactive virtual walls and mist screen displays to create a dreamlike atmosphere.
I took my kids to Qingdao for a trip. I read online that the Underwater World was recommended. It was really good, and I personally think it's better than the Polar Regions. Haha, you have to go early to see the mermaid show. We went too late and were quite far away, so we could only hear the sound but not see the performance. It was a Sichuan Opera face-changing performance. If you like to watch the show, you can reserve a seat in advance...

A Day in Liandao, Enchanted by the Seaside
I headed to Liandao for a weekend getaway. The moment I stepped off the bus, the salty, moist sea breeze embraced me, instantly dispelling my travel fatigue.
Stepping onto Dashawan, the golden sand stretched endlessly, its fine sand tingling and soothing on my bare feet. The water was clear, the waves lapped, children played and chased, and adults lay comfortably, creating a truly leisurely scene.
Walking slowly along the coastal boardwalk, I was met with verdant mountains and lush forests on one side, and the shimmering blue sea on the other. The sea breeze, carrying its unique scent, was intoxicating. Arriving at Suma Bay, the place felt even more tranquil. The beach was clean, and shells were scattered across it. I bent down to pick them up with great joy.
In the evening, the sun set, its afterglow tinting the sky and sea a breathtaking orange-red, a breathtaking beauty. Though this trip to Liandao was brief, it has planted a deep fondness in my heart, and I look forward to our next visit.

1. Nestled against the mountains and facing the sea, in this natural oxygen bar, Siberian tigers lazily stroll across the lawn, and ring-tailed lemurs cling to the railings, begging for apples. Every step feels like stepping into a fairytale animal kingdom.
2. From the thrill of the wild beasts to the soothing touch of the adorable pets, watch the red pandas crunching bamboo, listen to the cheerful splashing of sea lions during their performance, and even the breeze wafts with the scent of happiness—this is perhaps the most heartwarming connection between humans and nature.
[Fun] Unique
[Scenery] Mountains and Sea
I saw a lot of rare animals, and the silly eyes of the little animals were really endearing. The zoo is really big, and you can see amphibians from land, sea and air, which is very suitable for bringing children to play.

The hotel is conveniently located just downstairs from Exit C of Lianhe Road on Line 2. The hotel rooms are small, but well-equipped, comfortable and clean. The TV can be projected, so you can watch your favorite movies after a trip. It feels like home. A faster internet speed would be perfect.
Enter from the north gate, take the cable car, then visit the free-range area and take a Ferris wheel. I especially recommend the Ferris wheel because it has air conditioning and is not hot at all. It also provides water and you can watch the Sky Crossing Bridge.
