A slightly tipsy three-day, two-night trip in Qingdao🍻—this city is truly perfect for unwinding, enjoying the sea breeze and beer, and experiencing the beauty of a slow life.

Day 1: The City Memory of Beer Flavor
📍Tsingtao Brewery Museum (56 Dengzhou Road, Shibei District): Tickets are 60 RMB. You can learn about the century-old history of Tsingtao Beer and enjoy free tastings of original draft beer🍺
📍Signal Hill Park (16 Longshan Road, Shinan District): Offers a panoramic view of Qingdao’s old town with red roofs, green trees, blue sea, and sky all in sight⛰️
📍Zhanqiao Pier (14 Taiping Road, Shinan District): Recommended to visit before sunset for a beautiful view; you can also buy fresh starfish specimens nearby🌊
Tips: You can buy beer-flavored ice cream at the souvenir shop in the Brewery Museum—super unique!

Day 2: Romance Between Mountains and Sea
📍Laoshan Scenic Area (Laoshan Road, Laoshan District): It’s recommended to buy a 130 RMB combo ticket, which includes the scenic area shuttle bus. The Taoist priests at Taiqing Palace will teach you the correct way to pray🙏
📍Qingdao Third Bathing Beach (Nanhai Road, Shinan District): The sand is especially fine and soft; at low tide in the afternoon, you can find many small shells and conches🐚
Tips: Be sure to try the green tea on Laoshan—fragrant and affordable

Day 3: An Artistic Stroll in the Old Town
📍Badaguan Scenic Area (Wushengguan Branch Road, Shinan District): Old villas with architectural styles from over 20 countries, perfect for taking stunning photos📸
📍Xiaoyushan Park (Yushan Road, Shinan District): Less crowded and beautiful scenery, the best spot for a 360° view of the sea and city
Tips: To capture the same corner shots as on variety shows, be sure to go early

🚗 Transportation Tips:
1. Qingdao Metro is very convenient and reaches almost all attractions
2. For taxis, it’s recommended to use ride-hailing apps for transparent pricing and no detours
3. For Laoshan, it’s best to hire a car for a time-saving and effortless trip

🍲 Food Recommendations:
✅ Dumplings (must-try with Spanish mackerel filling)
✅ Barbecue (signature grilled squid)
✅ Laoshan Cola (a special drink with a herbal medicine flavor)

🏡 Accommodation Suggestions:
It’s recommended to stay in the old town of Shinan District. We stayed at the Yizhong Holiday Hotel, within walking distance to many attractions, and you can enjoy late-night snacks at the Taidong Night Market nearby.
