A brief introduction to Qingdao
Home to rich history, breath-taking architecture, and beautiful beaches, Qingdao is brimming with a treasure trove of wondrous memories for all types of travellers.
Start your trip by admiring the gorgeous architecture hotspots throughout the city, including famed attractions like the Governor’s House Museum, which was built with Concession-era style craftsmanship, and St Michael’s Cathedral, completed in 1934 and inspired by Gothic and Roman architecture.
Numerous temples are situated around Qingdao, with the Tianhou Temple arguably being the most renowned one. Dedicated to Tianhou, the patron of seafarers, the temple was erected in 1467 and boasts a grandiose main hall that features vibrant statues of the goddess, who is flanked by many fierce-looking guardians. Be sure to explore the Dragon King Hall, which has a shrine for the God of Wealth. If you happen to be in Qingdao during the Spring Festival period, an annual temple fair is held there.
Those looking to enjoy some fun in the sun can venture to one of the beaches in Qingdao, with some of the most notable being Shilaoren Beach and Golden Sand Beach. Upon working up an appetite, we recommend sampling some local cuisine, including the pot stickers, pork and cabbage buns, and the chilli sauteed clams. Be sure to pair your meal with the iconic Tsingtao beer, which originated from the city of Qingdao, and visit the museum to learn how the global brand started.
After enjoying the culinary delights of the city, take a relaxing stroll through Zhongshan Park, which boasts the largest temple in Qingdao - Zhongshan Temple. We also recommend heading to Taiping Hill in the northeast part of the park as you can take a cable car from there to the Qingdao TV Tower.
