Qingdao, A Seaside Paradise

Qingdao is crammed full of coffee shops, restaurants and small bars along with lots of shopping areas, including a very cheap and lively night market.

The city is divided into two parts, the old and new; the old has lots of interesting buildings of German architecture as well as some churches.

Most weekends everyone meets up to spend the day at the beach, climb the local mountains or have a picnic in Zhongshan Park, which also has a sizable zoo.

Of course, Qingdao is also home to its famous brewery and Beer Street, giving the city a relaxed and entertaining vibe not found anywhere else in China.

Why Qingdao?

Qingdao is home to the famous Tsingtao (pronounced “Ching-dow” – don’t ask us why!) Brewery. This beer is known for its cheap cost while maintaining taste. Visit the brewery to learn more about the beer-making process and get free samples

The city has some of China’s most unique international architecture, thanks to Germany’s occupation of the city during the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
