Qingdao is a great place for a spontaneous trip, especially in late autumn.

Qingdao is a great place for a weekend getaway (take a day off) in the off-season, with an average cost of less than CNY 1,000. This time, I decided to go on a whim. Cities by the sea are so romantic, so 18 photos are not enough to express my withdrawal symptoms. Qingdao is divided into the urban area and Laoshan Scenic Area. Day 1 & 3: Zhanqiao Pier - Church - German Governor's Residence - Signal Hill - Comic Street - Internet-famous Wall - Xiaoqingdao Island - Qinyu Road - Lu Xun Park - Xiaoyushan Park - Badaguan Scenic Area - Second Bathing Beach - Xiaomai Island for Sunset - Tsingtao Beer Museum (The order can be adjusted according to the itinerary. The sunset is usually between 4 and 5 pm, so make sure to be on time!) Day 2: If you come to Qingdao without visiting Laoshan, it's like you haven't been here at all. I recommend arranging a one-day tour of Laoshan on the second day! You should see the statue of Taishang Laojun, the sunset over the sea, and hike along the coastal road. There are many ways to do this.
