How to enjoy Qing Dao further (feat. Lao Shan⛰️

In the very early morning, I went to Lao Shan(嶗山). This mountain is surrounded by the coastline. We took bus 618 with one yuan(元) to reach out Taiqing scenic spot. What we did was to go all the way down till coast line and visited a village named qing shan yu cun(請山魚村). We could view the landscape of cloud, mountain, tea plants, village with a bunch of red roofs, and the coastline. I appreciated that I have a companion in this journey. We walked all the way till the entrance of village and found one tea shop. My friend talked in Chinese with staffs and she said we can taste the tea before buying in free of charge. I learnt that it is considered polite not to drink or eat all when some are given to us in free of charge. 🙀 Drinking tea always made me feel much calmer. - then I bought two packets of tea. exciting! We started being hungry, so entered the nearest restaurant. The view from the seat was amazing. Staffs were nice but the service was way too slow - almost took an hour to get a dish of clams, potato, and two bowls of rice. But we definitely enjoyed the view. ;-) We reached out the bus station but did not come after a half an hour waiting. Thus, we called the taxi to get the nearest station named Dahedong(大海東). As we were so exhausted, we fell a sleep all the way till the station. **I strongly recommend to visit Lao Shan in the early morning.** Epsecially, if it is in July..... 🥵 You will not survive under that strong sun and humidity. We took the line number 1 (yellow line). There are two different sections - one with strong air conditioner, another with moderate. Take the one upon your condition. Anyway we took the strong one. Many passengers in the subway seemed tired and again we all fell asleep. After taking a break in each own's hotel, my friend and I met at the Tai Dong station(台東站). There were a big tower in the middle of Tai Dong street. You collect a plastic cup from the nearby booth and queue one of many lines. It seems having different taste in each line. If you pay about 10~15 yuan(元), you will get a full cup of beer. Of course, you can pay with Alipay. Ours was the grapefruit flavor - and I tasted none of alcohols inside. 🍻 We had oysters with garlic on the top and a large chicken satay. Tasty and I had no stomach at all. But always better finding the place neat and clean by yourself! ‼️ I had no problem at all. The street was quite crowded - we decided to find a bar to stay at night and took a metro until Qing Dao Station. Then we walked for fifteen minutes and arrived in one of the fancy bar. - bar name: SAMAR - recommendation: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ - Achtung!: The price is quite high compared to Qing Dao beer but worthwhile to enjoy for one night - isn't it? We ordered one glass of champagne and another of white wine(I remember it was 8~9dollars). It was still okay as we enjoyed the music, mood, and observing young chinese enjoying the night.
