Qinyu Road is located in Shinan District, Qingdao City, Shandong Province. This beautiful coastal path connects Laiyang Road to Little Qingdao Island, winding irregularly along the shoreline with a gentle east-to-west slope. It links two famous attractions - Lu Xun Park and Little Qingdao Island - accessible to both vehicles and pedestrians.
One side of Qinyu Road faces the azure sea, offering simultaneous views of the charming Jiaozhou Bay and Huiquan Bay. Though separated only by a causeway, these two bays have slightly different characters. Walking along the road, you'll hear the constant rhythm of waves against the shore and feel the sea breeze caressing your face, as if stepping into a dreamy coastal painting.
Qinyu Road is one of Qingdao's best spots for admiring both sunrise and sunset. At dawn, the sun rises slowly from Huiquan Bay's horizon, casting golden light that dances on the water's surface. Come evening, the dazzling fireball gradually sinks over Jiaozhou Bay, painting the sky with stunning afterglow while waves gently lap against the reefs, as if humming a lullaby to the setting sun - tender and romantic.
One side of the road features sunbathed, sleepy-eyed yellow buildings brimming with artistic charm. After renovation, the road has become more spacious and tidy, lined with diverse boutique shops bearing poetic and romantic names, each infused with the area's distinctive artistic atmosphere.
A highlight of Qinyu Road is the "Lonely Tree" growing between buildings, quietly gazing at the vast sea. Particularly at sunset, the tree and ocean create a romantic interplay, forming a picturesque scene that has become a must-visit spot for young travelers. Qingdao · Shandong
