Qingdao Travel | Half Mountain and Sea, Half City

Just returned from Qingdao!
This trip unlocked so many hidden gems and off-the-beaten-path experiences.
Here’s the ultimate guide, curated after walking 20,000 steps daily ✨

⛰️【Mount Lao Immortal Quest】
✅ Took a lakeside bus tour
Perfect for lazy souls who don’t want to hike
🍵 (Pair it with Laoshan Cola—absolute bliss!)

🏝️【3-Hour Adventure at Yan'er Island】
Fewer crowds than Xiaomai Island! Wooden boardwalks + rocky shores
Find the viral seaside cave near "Qingdao Seaview Garden Hotel"
Walk to the white lighthouse at low tide

🌅【Third Beach Light Show】
Runs at 7:30 PM every Tue, Thu, Fri & Sat
Skyscraper neon lights reflect on the sea like cyberpunk Qingdao
📸 Flashlight backshots = insta-magic!

🍻【Immersive Brewery Experience】
Craft beer bars every three steps
Passionfruit, peach, and grape flavors are delish hehe

😋【Food Hall of Fame】
✔️ Fresh draft beer in roadside plastic bags
✔️ Laoshan Cola (herbal-infused, uniquely refreshing!)

💦【Seaside Stroll Route】
Xilingxia Road → Badaxia → Zhanqiao Pier → Lu Xun Park
Postcard-perfect coastal views all along
Best after 4 PM to avoid the sun～

✨ Qingdao’s romance lies in:
Sipping bagged beer while strolling,
Finding heart-shaped sea glass on the rocks,
The fizzy chill of Laoshan Cola bursting on your tongue...
