Qingdao, a coastal city in the southeast of the Shandong Peninsula, is an economic center and international shipping hub in Northeast Asia. This strategic position gives the city not only a thriving economy but also stunning beaches, comfortable weather, and a seamless transportation network that facilitates easy exploration within its boundaries.
As one of the major cities in China, Qingdao offers a vibrant, modern atmosphere with diverse tourist attractions, making this city a must-visit when you’re in China. Notable landmarks, such as the iconic ZhanQiao Pier and the enchanting Badaguan Scenic Area, proudly display the architectural blend of the East and West influence. There’s also the Old Town, adorned with red-roofed European-style buildings, making you feel like you are stepping back in time.
Qingdao also offers fun destinations for your family, like the Qingdao Underwater World, China’s oldest aquarium with various sea critters and animals, the Golden Beach, where you can relax under the sun or play in the water, or Pichai Yuan Food Street, a popular food street with vintage atmosphere, offering culinary options like seafood, local snacks, and desserts.
For sports enthusiasts, one interesting fact about Qingdao is that the city famously hosted sailing events during the 2008 Olympics and continues to lure visitors with its sea appeal.

Jinan, the capital of Shandong Province in eastern China, is a city nicknamed the "City of Springs". It is known for its many natural springs in beautiful parks. Among these, Baotu Spring stands out as an appealing natural beauty, which makes the city even more worth visiting.
In addition to its natural beauty, the city is also modern, with many tall buildings in the lively city center. At the heart of the bustling metropolis lies the expansive Daming Lake, a peaceful spot featuring smaller islands and pavilions—a perfect setting for a leisurely afternoon stroll amidst the urban bustle.
Jinan's beauty is not limited to its history either. There are various ancient temples and buildings with traditional architecture that are still preserved today, such as the Shandong Museum, a living proof of the city's cultural heritage, preserving the past and offering a glimpse into Shandong's rich history.
The city has four weather conditions, and the best time to visit is in spring and fall when you can explore the city with mild temperatures. These seasons showcase Jinan in all its glory, inviting visitors to explore the city's rich culture, natural beauty, and see its growth.
