Signal Hill Park

Signal Hill Park is located in the center of Qingdao. It got its name because there was a signal tower on the top of the hill to guide ships.
The three red-roofed mushroom buildings on the top of the mountain are particularly eye-catching. The tallest one is a rotating viewing building, where you can have a 360-degree view of Qingdao.
The Talang Observation Deck is located slightly below the Lianxin Bridge and is the best place to take photos of the German castle-style guesthouse to the south.

Maybe it was affected by the weather, it was quite desolate this time and many flowers had not yet bloomed. From the Talang Observation Deck, you can see the site of the Ocean University and the coastline in the distance, as well as more city views.



The overall Signal Hill Park is not very big, and some of the attractions feel very... perfunctory, such as Wulongtan and Lianxin Bridge.



During the peak season, you need to queue up to enter the tower, and the order is a bit chaotic. It takes about 30 minutes to walk around. Tickets are 5 yuan, and the pass is 15 yuan (you can climb the tower)

By Listen to the Rain |

1. Beautiful scenery, overlooking the old city, and sea view when the weather is good, eight words to describe it: green trees, red tiles, blue sea and blue sky

2. The ticket is cheap, 5 yuan per person, but I don't recommend buying a ticket to the rotating observation deck. There is nothing to see behind the glass, and it's not worth the 10 yuan!

3. The altitude is not high, so you won’t feel tired when you go up.

By Cat Lover |

It is a must-visit park in Qingdao. You can see the beautiful city view here. Signal Hill Park is relatively high. It takes about 15 to 20 minutes to climb to the top. There is also a viewing ball at the top, which costs an additional 15 yuan. I think it is not easy to take pictures up there because it is closed, so I didn't go up to the ball. It is so beautiful to see so many red houses from a high place. There are red houses everywhere~ It feels like being in a foreign land.

If I have to choose between Signal Hill Park and Xiaoyu Hill Park, I would choose Xiaoyu Hill Park. Xiaoyu Hill Park offers both sea and city views, and I personally think the city view at Xiaoyu Hill is more beautiful. But it's better to go to both.

Unexpectedly, the sunny weather was only friendly to us for one day. Today is another foggy day. The humidity in Qingdao seems to be particularly heavy. It is hot and humid on the mountain. When we reached the top of the mountain, we were almost suffocating. We also lost interest in the scenery below the mountain. It was all white from afar. The ticket to the mountain does not include the cost of climbing to the top of the Maritime Exhibition Hall (the red dome). You can buy a combined ticket directly at the bottom of the mountain, or you can buy a ticket after reaching the dome. After going up, we regretted not seeing the beautiful scenery and sweating all over because there is no air conditioning inside the dome!!!

Ticket price: 15 yuan (including the red dome)

By Playing around |

During the German occupation of Qingdao, the earliest "signal flag" and radio station in Qingdao were built on the mountain, and flags were hoisted as signals to direct ships in and out of the port, so it was called "Flag Hill" and "Flag Station". After the Chinese government took back Qingdao from Japan in 1923, it was named "Signal Hill".

From the mountain you can overlook the cityscape of Qingdao. There is not much else to do except a rotating observation deck. The German Governor's Building is located at the foot of the mountain.

By A fish is not a fish |

The ticket price is 15 yuan on site and 9.9 yuan online. Although online tickets are cheaper, they need to be booked one hour in advance. You cannot enter if you book on the spot. The ticket includes the fee for the rotating observation deck, from which you can see the panoramic view of Qingdao.

By Backpackers traveling in the south |

The most famous hilltop park in downtown Qingdao, overlooking the ancient city of Qingdao

By April Sea |

The observation tower at the top offers a 360-degree panoramic view of the old city. Since you are here, you must go up!

By Yueyue and Big Cat |

The park is not big, but it is worth going because you can overlook the entire Qingdao waterfront, and it is a rotating observation deck, so you can see the whole circle without blind spots!

By Dust on the road |

It's OK. I didn't go to the rotating platform. The mountain is not high and the scenery is good.

By F-Ayan |

When the weather is good, you must come to the mountain to see the little red roofs of Qingdao!

By Brother Nan doesn't want to go to work |

It’s super cheap to book tickets in advance, and you can overlook the whole Qingdao on a sunny day.

By Singha |

I have seen many couple locks, the surface of which is made of plastic and has faded due to long-term exposure to the sun.

Signal Hill is only 98 meters above sea level, but as you go up, the scenery of Qingdao city comes into view, and the red and orange roofs are super cute.

You can have a 360-degree view of Qingdao from the rotating observation tower.

By Nicole |

The left side of the Longshan Road Gate is a bit shaky, but the right side is a bit slower and has several scenic spots. The scenery is great, and you can overlook the city of Qingdao at 360 degrees. The viewing platform can slowly rotate 360 degrees, but it is closed by glass, so the photos will be a bit unclear. It is also nice to take pictures at a high place outdoors

By deep |

This is an attraction I hadn't heard of last time. It's also one I'm looking forward to. I heard that you can see the whole picture of Qingdao, especially there is a rotating observation deck, and I was not disappointed.

After last week's typhoon, Qingdao's weather this week is sunny and picturesque, especially suitable for autumn travel

By Giant vetch in the reed marsh |

Signal Hill Park is also a tourist attraction recommended by Lieqiang. Although the entrance is very unremarkable and gives people the feeling of a park, there is an automatically rotating observation deck on the top of the mountain which is simply amazing. The rotation speed is very slow, and you can sit on a rattan chair to rest while looking at the whole picture of Qingdao's old city!

By LiLee |

It was not as difficult and high as we imagined. We reached the top of the mountain in ten minutes. The tower on the top of the mountain can be like the top of a revolving restaurant. You can sit and rotate to see the whole Qingdao. It feels ancient and interesting.

By linda |

The setting sun in the evening shines on the red tiles and green trees, surrounded by mountains and sea in the distance, making people feel like they are in a dream.

It is recommended to visit Signal Hill Park on a sunny evening to reach the top so that you can take photos of the beautiful sunset with softer light.

By The C position of the beginning is travel |

Signal Hill is a landmark attraction in Qingdao. Although it is only 98 meters above sea level, you can still overlook Qingdao from the top. If the weather is good, the red house will be more obvious. My Parents' Love was filmed there, which is a dream come true. After all, it is one of my favorite TV series.

By Not a car. |

After passing through Huangdao Market, you will reach Signal Hill Park. It is best to buy tickets online one hour in advance for Signal Hill Park. It only costs 9.9 yuan and is a pass. You can enter the observation deck, because buying tickets on site not only requires cash but also requires a long queue. Buying tickets online is simply a green channel. You can enter directly by scanning the code. But the most important thing is to buy it one hour in advance. Signal Hill is not high. You can walk and see the scenery. Basically, you can reach the top of the mountain in a short while. You can enter the observation deck with the tickets bought online. In the observation deck of Signal Hill, you can see the whole picture of Qingdao, including the sea, the mountains, and high-rise buildings. The observation deck can be rotated. Basically, you can see almost everything after turning around in it. You can take some photos and go down the mountain. Because my mobile phone ran out of power and turned off automatically on Signal Hill, I only took a few photos, which is a bit regrettable.

By Let me take a look |

Signal Hill Park is located near the German Prison Site Museum, with an altitude of 98 meters. After Germany occupied Qingdao, in order to command ships entering and leaving Jiaozhou Bay, a signal post was built on the top of the hill. Various signal signs and weather and wind signs were hung every day. It was named "Hua Zi Ma Ke Shan". Citizens called it "Hanging Flag Hill" or "Flag Tower Hill". In 1923, the Jiaozhou Bay Commercial Port Supervisor's Office corrected it to "Signal Hill" when sorting out Qingdao's district divisions and place names.

By annitayun |

It is next to the Jiangsu Road Christian Church. You must climb to the top to overlook the entire Qingdao.

By Maple Journey |

It is named after the signal tower on the top of the mountain. It is not very high and the park is not big, but you can overlook Qingdao from here and admire Qingdao's red walls, green tiles, blue sea and blue sky. It is definitely worth a visit.

By Nie Xiaoxiaoyoyo |

One of the best places to check in in Qingdao: Signal Hill Park

The park is not that big. As its name suggests, you start climbing the mountain (stairs) when you enter the door. There is a 360-degree rotating environment platform at the top. You can sit on the bench and slowly enjoy the scenery of Qingdao. There are not many other amazing things...

By Ramon |

In 2005, I went on a tour group to several cities along the coast of Shandong. I went to Signal Hill on my own. There is a rotating viewing terrace, through the glass you can see the panoramic view of Qingdao's old city, it is worth a visit.

By kid castle |

It takes about 20 minutes to climb up to the small red ball on the top of the mountain, where you can overlook Qingdao 180 degrees. There is a row of seats around the window. The ball rotates slowly, and you can see all angles. There is also a radio commentary, but it was too noisy and I couldn't hear it clearly. There are also several landscape balconies on the way, which can also overlook Qingdao. It takes about an hour to visit Signal Hill Park.

By Tom's Miss |

The ticket is 15 yuan, and you can overlook the red bricks and green tiles of Qingdao's old city, which is very beautiful.

By wxya |

The ticket includes the revolving observation deck. In fact, there is no need to go to the revolving observation deck. It is very small, a bit boring, and feels very old. It is only 5 yuan per person for the observation deck.

By Shuishui |

Overlooking the entire Qingdao building, it's similar to the Hong Kong Sky Terrace!

By xy |

It is about the same height as Sheshan Mountain. Climbing to the top is a good way to exercise and take photos with rich colors.

By polar bear |

Signal Hill offers a panoramic view of Qingdao's old city.

Free before 7:30am

But the tickets are not expensive

In fact, if you go early, you can also see the sunrise and the sunlight is not glaring

When we went there in the morning, the gray fog had not yet dissipated and the sun was strong and backlit.



There is also a rotating platform on top where you can sit and automatically rotate with you.



The entrance we entered had a very fragrant osmanthus scent.

Super fragrant

The aroma that makes you feel full

But standing under the tree, there is no dense

Osmanthus smells so good!

By Dada |

There are really a lot of people on Signal Hill. Everyone has to queue up to buy tickets and queue up to go up the mountain, but the view after going up is really great and you can look around the whole Qingdao. The only drawback: there are too many people!

By /wx Meeting on a Strange Road |

A tourist spot for climbing high and looking far. Overlooking the surroundings, the Jiaoao Governor's Mansion, the Catholic Church, the Christian Church, and the distant trestle bridge are all in sight. "Three sides are surrounded by lush greenery and blue sea, and there is a red building at the bottom of the mountain."

By Sun_Flower🌻 |

Signal Hill is mainly for viewing the panoramic view of Qingdao, with red tiles and green trees in full view. The tickets are very cheap and free during certain periods. Tickets for the revolving hall must be paid separately at the ticket office. The small chairs are used for sitting and the slow rotation reminds me of the Oriental Pearl Tower for some reason.

By Miss Na |

Very beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, yes, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful

By Fat and beautiful |

A park with a panoramic view of Qingdao. You must go there!

I knew in advance that parking was difficult. But after navigating to the parking lot, I had to climb up most of the mountain. I didn't want to walk an extra step with my kids, so I drove up! Actually, parking was not a big deal. I just wanted to take a look at the panoramic view of the city. I like the rows of German-style red roofs, the scattered beauty of green trees, red tiles, blue sea and blue sky! If we weren't with kids, we would definitely choose to climb the mountain and sit on the top of the mountain for a while. There is also a small and exquisite fountain next to the stone steps at the top of the mountain, called Wulongtan.

By /Su Jin |

The hill overlooking the old city is a bit like Eling in Chongqing. Tickets are 5 yuan per ticket, and an additional 10 yuan is required to go to the rotating observation deck. I personally don't think it is necessary to go to the observation deck, the view from the mountain is already great.

By Daisy |

There is an observation tower in the park from which you can overlook the entire Qingdao. The ticket price including the observation tower is 15 yuan per person.

Climbing mountains can kill you. I almost died here again... I didn't prepare the guide well, so I thought it was just a park. I didn't expect to start climbing after entering the park. Brother Hang said that the guide he read said it would take only a few minutes to climb up. That might be the time it takes to climb a mountain. Anyway, I almost died when I climbed up.

By Braids in the Clouds |

I wanted to come at sunset, but due to the schedule, I could only come at noon. It is also a good choice to come at noon, with clear skies and a wide view. You can see both the old city and the new city. You can also see the scenery along the river. There are trees on the mountain to provide shade and it is not hot. The large venue can also avoid the crowd. However, the red and round viewing platform itself is out of the steady temperament of the old city. There are many people on the 360-degree rotating platform, so try to get a good window seat.

By Lonely flight |

When you stand at the highest point and look down, you can see almost the whole Qingdao. It is so beautiful. It is magnificent. The sea and the sky are one color. Standing in the revolving viewing building, you will feel that the world is big and you are small. In fact, Signal Hill is worth a visit. It feels like climbing a small hill. But when you really stand in the viewing building. You will find that you have climbed so high. It is recommended to play for one to two hours.

By Maizitun |

There is a cute frog-like rotating observation tower on the top of the mountain. It is round. It costs 10 yuan to go to the rotating observation tower and 5 yuan for the park ticket. There are explanations in the observation tower, and you can see the whole picture of Qingdao. It is very beautiful and worth going.

By Xiao Tan's Travel Diary |

Highly recommended, you can see the panoramic view of Qingdao, especially the observation deck, where you can see the pier, the red tiles, green trees and blue sea and blue sky of Qingdao's coastline. Be sure to go early, as there will be more people after 10 am.

By Year |

Signal Hill Park is free after 18:00. We went there at around 5 o'clock. The ticket is 5 yuan per person, and 2.5 yuan per person if you bring your student ID. It is important to note that you can only pay in cash. Signal Hill is still a small hill. You will still be out of breath when you climb it, but it is really worth it! You can see the whole picture of the old city. Here I was really moved by the red roof. On Signal Hill, you can see the castle-like Christian church and you can clearly hear the church bells on the hour. All the green trees and red walls seen on this mountain are part of the scenery, so it is true that Qingdao is full of scenery.

By Baby chipmunk |

You must go to the observation tower, the rotating observation deck there is the best place to see the panoramic view of Qingdao.

From the rotating observation deck on the top of Signal Mountain, you can see a 360-degree panoramic view of Qingdao. It is very beautiful and amazing. You must come and see it~ The coastal town with green trees and red tiles is fully displayed before your eyes.

By Walking porker |

The small park is suitable for climbing up and looking far into the distance. The scenery is great. You can buy a ticket to enter the signal tower on the top of the mountain to enjoy a 360-degree view of Qingdao. However, we did not go up because we had seen it from Xiaoyu, and we could basically see it from below.

By Happy |

Signal Hill Park is not big. When I went there, I really didn't have high hopes. I mainly wanted to go to the revolving hall above. The ticket was 5 yuan and the revolving hall was 10 yuan. I didn't expect the scenery to be so good that it exceeded my expectations. After a rotation, I felt that Qingdao was very small and all of it was in sight. It was surrounded by the sea on three sides. The conditions were unique. It was not very hot and the view was very wide. You can see the train station and Laoshan. The trestle bridge turned into a very small line, and the arc drawn by the motorboat in the sea in the distance was only a white line on the water. The architectural style was influenced by Germany during the colonial period, but the city was very clean. I hope Qingdao will always pay attention to protecting the environment and keep the cleanliness.

【Signal Hill Park】

Price: 5 yuan/person, 10 yuan/person for the round terrace on the top of the mountain

The mountain is not high, and young people should be able to reach the top in less than half an hour. We took the elderly with us, walking and stopping, and it took almost an hour and a half.

The scenery at the top of the mountain is very good, and you can overlook the entire old city of Qingdao. There is a large platform halfway up the mountain, from which you can see the German Governor's Palace below.

There are two entrances to Signal Hill Park, one is the "North Gate" on Qidong Road, and the other is the "Southwest Gate" on Longshan Road. People with mobility impairments are advised to go through the "North Gate" where cars can drive up to the halfway point of the mountain.

By Afa's sister |

The mountain is a good place to take photos. I don't think it's necessary to buy tickets for the rotating platform. There is no place to sit after going up. There are many people... Just watch it from the Talang Observation Deck! !

By Sanjietang |

From Signal Hill Park you can overlook the entire old city, which is quite a feeling.

By Xiao Xiaopang's Footprints |

Worth a visit. You can overlook the entire old city of Qingdao. You need to buy tickets for the rotating viewing platform. It is recommended to buy tickets online in advance, because it will be available only after one hour, and it will be too late to buy them when you arrive.

By Flowers in bloom |

The whole park is not big. The revolving observation building at the top is definitely a great place to watch the sunset in Qingdao. However, the observation building is relatively small, and it is probably crowded during the peak tourist season. We went there during the off-season, so there were very few people, and we could sit in our seats and leisurely wait for the sunset.

By Ningbao |

After playing on the pier, I went to the Sixth Beach to play for a while. After having lunch at Sichuan Flavor House Seafood, I took the bus here. As soon as I arrived at the west gate of the park, I was scared by the high steps. I took my eldest and second child all the way up the mountain. The eldest was very sleepy, and the second child was jumping excitedly. Her father and I climbed up to the observation tower purely by willpower. It took more than half an hour to climb the normal 10-minute route. My legs were shaking. It felt like we had joined the ranks of the elderly in advance. We arrived at the top of the tower at around 1:00 p.m. There were not many people and no queue. The view on the rotating tower is really beautiful and worth it. We rested for nearly an hour on the corridor at the top of the mountain before going down the mountain.

By Kevink26 |

Signal Hill is the best viewing platform for red tiles, green trees, blue sea and blue sky. It is not high and it only takes ten minutes to reach the top. It is a tourist attraction that is worth visiting.

By Experience Life V |

Go up to the Signal Hill Observation Deck, where you can see the true beauty of Qingdao, with green trees, red tiles, blue sea and blue sky. It is very beautiful and worth seeing.

By Orange flavored soda |

The area is not very large, and the ticket price is 5 yuan per person. If you want to go to the observation deck, there is an additional charge. We did not go to the observation deck. In fact, it is the same up to the top of the mountain, and the view is still very broad. It is recommended not to waste money!

The main purpose of going to Signal Hill Park is to climb to the top to see the blue sea and blue sky, red tiles and green trees! This park itself doesn't have much to see, this is a more pertinent suggestion! The top of the mountain is particularly cool, and it's nice to take a break!

By Amon |

Must be recommended with five stars, a good place to take photos of Qingdao night view and red tiles and green trees from a high place, there are several open platforms, you can see the Christian church, the sea, red tiles and green trees, the ticket is cheap, a must-go when you come to Qingdao

By Cherrish_Yaoyao |

Signal Hill is just a small park, but after climbing to the top you can see the whole picture of Qingdao. It is a good place to take pictures and it is very cool.

From Signal Hill Park, you can have a bird's eye view of the entire city of Qingdao. The entire Signal Hill is like an extremely huge observation deck, from which you can see the narrow coastline of Qingdao. Whether it is the classical calmness of the old city of Shinan, the bustling and noisy Shinan commercial district, or the gentle and leisurely Shibei District, you can see it clearly. Signal Hill is not very big, and you can climb to the viewing point in half an hour. This is also the former residence of Lao She, Liang Qiushi and others, with a strong cultural atmosphere and historical precipitation. Just be sure to do a good job of sun protection when you go there in summer. There are more mosquitoes on the mountain, so try to wear longer pants. Signal Hill Park is very close to Taitung. After climbing the mountain, we went directly to Taitung Pedestrian Street. Food and drink on Taitung Pedestrian Street are very cheap, and there are many shops to choose from. There is a shop called Someone's Specialty Shop that impressed me deeply. I have heard of this shop on the Internet before. The shop is very clean, with many novel specialties, and the boss is also very enthusiastic. Most of the things in the store can be tasted. The boss heard that we had just finished playing in Signal Hill, and introduced us to some little knowledge about Signal Hill. The black garlic in his shop is very delicious. Donkey-hide gelatin and Laoshan green tea are also their main products. Their tea is very resistant to brewing, has a strong bean flavor, and has a very elegant aftertaste. It is really good. I recommend everyone to go and have a look.

Signal Hill Park overlooks the city of Qingdao and is a very good choice. The viewing platform is a bit cute.

The view of Signal Hill Park from a distance is also beautiful.

Signal Hill is the best place to overlook the island city and experience the "red tiles, green trees, blue sea and blue sky".

There is a sea-viewing pavilion on the mountainside. From the pavilion, you can see the beautiful scenery of Qingdao Bay in the southwest.

From the Talang Observation Deck, you can enjoy the beautiful scenery of Huiquan Bay in the southeast.

I only had half a day in Qingdao, so I decided to visit Signal Hill. I have always wanted to see the green trees and red tiles. Now there are more and more high-rise buildings, so I decided to go there as early as possible. There are chairs on the revolving stand so I can sit down and enjoy the grand Qingdao.

Whenever I go to a place, the first thing I think of is where the highest point is to see the beauty of the whole city. It was no exception when I arrived in Qingdao. It was already around 6:20 when I arrived. It was free to enter. I needed to climb a short distance, but I could reach the top quickly. The beautiful scenery always makes people open their hearts. When I first went up, I walked over and stood for five seconds. An old lady on the seat behind me said to me: "Comrade, you are blocking me, I can't see it. If you want to see it, sit down and let's see it together." I didn't understand it very well at the time. It really scared me. I took a picture and sat next to him. I felt that I had received a kind of benefit. As long as someone blocked her in front of her, she would say comrade, you are blocking me, please let me go, thank you. While watching the scenery, she hummed a song that I couldn't understand in my age. The old lady was obviously a local, but I didn't take the initiative to chat. I felt that those who called people comrades were not simple. The point is that the next day when I was walking in Zhongshan Park, I saw this old lady again, because her unique hat and shoes could be recognized at a glance. This is when I felt that she might be lonely at home alone... (original picture not edited)

Tickets: 15/person (including rotating viewing platform)

I personally think that you must go to Signal Hill, otherwise you will miss the red bricks and green trees! The mountain is not very high, and it takes about 10 minutes to climb to the top of the mountain. The view from the rotating observation deck is beautiful.

The rotating observation deck on the top of the mountain is a great place to get a bird's eye view of Qingdao's red tiles and green trees. There was no blue sky and white clouds that day, and the tall buildings in the distance were even shrouded in fog, which is basically the norm in Qingdao.

The tickets for Signal Hill were also purchased online. If you buy online, you need to buy it one hour in advance. The online ticket price is 8.8 (Signal Hill ticket + rotating observation building). Student ID cards can be discounted by half. We did not buy it in advance, and we waited at the door for a full hour. Signal Hill can see the whole Qingdao, so it is worth going.

I really hit the right time by accident, and I caught up with the most beautiful sunset to climb up Signal Hill to enjoy the beautiful scenery. If I had come up a few minutes later, I would not have seen Qingdao under the sunset. In front of me are clusters of European-style buildings, which make people feel like they are abroad. You overlook the German Governor's Building and the horizon in the distance, and you suddenly feel like you are traveling through time. It seems that I saw Qingdao many years ago, with ships shuttling back and forth, buildings rising from the ground, so many people gathering at the dock, and so many people saying goodbye here. Some people were born here and buried on this land. Some people grew up in a foreign country and set foot on this land many years later.

Signal Hill is very distinctive, and the rotating observation deck on it is a major feature. The scenery is not as good as that of Xiaoyu Hill, probably because the weather was bad when I went there.

Tickets are free before 7:30 and after 6pm, but tickets are charged at other times, so getting up early at Signal Hill is a good choice! At the same time, the viewing building charges a separate viewing fee of 10 yuan! Signal Hill only accepts cash!

Follow the sign all the way forward and you will see a large platform. Standing on the platform and looking into the distance, you will have a clear view and take in the beautiful scenery of Qingdao. Looking into the distance, you will feel open and bright!

I was amazed. Standing on the top of the Signal Mountain, there was a breeze and looking around at the whole Qingdao, there were sea and ships in the distance, and buildings and mountains nearby.

It is said that it is a place where you can overlook the red tiles and green trees of the old city. Tickets for Signal Hill Park + spiral staircase can be booked online, but remember to book one hour in advance. Signal Hill is not high, near Qingdao Medical University Affiliated Hospital. The iconic building is the three big red balls on the top of the mountain. One of the red balls can be climbed up, which is the rotating viewing platform. It really rotates. If there is a place to sit when you go up, then face the glass and slowly go around, you can really see the panoramic view of red tiles and green trees, but there are very few places.

The park ticket is 5 yuan/person, the sightseeing spiral staircase is 10 yuan/person (there are no student tickets). The online package is cheaper than using my student ID, 9 yuan/person, so I booked an e-ticket online.

The park opens at 07:30 in the morning. If you enter before this time, you don't need to pay for tickets, but you can't go up to the rotating observation tower. From the wave-walking platform, you can clearly see the exterior of the former site of the German Governor's Palace. I originally planned to go there, but when I checked the guide, I found that I couldn't take pictures inside and it was best to ask a tour guide to explain, so I gave up. From the wave-walking platform, you can overlook the scenery of Qingdao City. The red houses and the sea form a beautiful picture, and Little Qingdao also appears in the field of vision.
