The red tiles, green trees, and blue sea and sky here form a natural painting. Qingdao’s coastline is winding and nurturing many beautiful bays, beaches, and islands, such as Zhanqiao Pier, Golden Beach, and Xiaomai Island, all excellent spots to enjoy the sea view. Strolling through the Badaguan Scenic Area feels like traveling through time, where German-style architecture and green trees complement each other, earning it the reputation of a "fairy tale castle of the last century." 🍽️ Food and Specialties Qingdao’s cuisine is rich and diverse, especially famous for seafood and beer. The local seafood emphasizes original flavors, ranging from spicy stir-fried clams to salt and pepper mantis shrimp, with a wide variety. Notably, Qingdao’s prices are relatively affordable; some tourists said, "I spent 50 yuan to buy a bowl of lively mantis shrimp, scallops, and oysters, took them to a nearby small restaurant for processing, and the owner only charged 15 yuan for processing and even gave a bunch of Qingdao original draft beer." Additionally, mackerel dumplings and beer fish are must-try specialties. Qingdao beer is renowned at home and abroad, and the Beer Museum is a great place to learn about beer culture. 💝 Cultural Atmosphere and Hospitality Qingdao people are praised by tourists for their "honest" and "gentle" hospitality. In the city, when asking for directions on the street, locals enthusiastically act as "unofficial tour guides"; at the popular corner on University Road, even retired teachers voluntarily help tourists take photos. This simplicity and enthusiasm make visitors feel the warmth of home. The bold yet delicate "contrast" personality of Qingdao people is also reflected in daily life, even down to the distinction between "Laoshan mineral water" and "Qingdao beer special water."
