Mount Tai's Winter Rime Ice Spectacular

The tour started with a meeting point to board a bus to bring us to the attraction entrance. Our guide Lianghua was punctual, gave us an introduction of the Mount Tai and brought us around. She was readily available to answer our questions and was helpful throughout the tour. The climb at the 18 bends was challenging yet satisfying. Over 3000 steps. The view at the peak was great and totally worth it. Amazing experience overall.
Overall, I like the cable car at Mount Tai, but the scenery at Mount Tai is really good. The price is not expensive, especially for the elderly, who are free or half price, which is very friendly. You don’t have to carry too many things up the mountain, and there are things for sale. I personally feel that it is not very expensive and within an acceptable range.

Stepping into Baotu Spring Park feels like stepping into a natural ink painting. Three clear springs gush endlessly, like jade liquid rising into the air and snow-capped waves surging, their endless vitality awe-inspiring! Surrounding the park are exquisite pavilions and weeping willows swaying in the water, perfectly blending the grandeur of northern gardens with the graceful beauty of Jiangnan scenery. Li Qingzhao's former residence, nestled within the park, adds a touch of cultural elegance. The water is crystal clear, revealing the bottom, and koi carp swim gracefully. Watching from the railing, your heart follows the tranquility of the springs, and your worries vanish. Admire the crabapple blossoms in spring and the chrysanthemums in autumn. The misty winter air, shrouded in mist, creates a truly dreamlike scene. Jinan's soul converges here, truly the most vibrant pearl of the Qilu region!
Baotu Spring is very beautiful in autumn. I was lucky enough to see the spring. It is worth visiting. Unfortunately, parking is a bit difficult on weekends. The scenic area's tour guide time is also a bit expensive compared to the tour guide fee.

It was really great. It vividly and realistically portrayed the historical development, production process, and production facilities of the Tsingtao Brewery. Each person also experienced two glasses of beer. The overall feeling was comfortable and relaxing. I will come again next time.
Stepping into the Tsingtao Beer Museum is like traveling through a century of Tsingtao Beer's history. The museum's rich exhibits vividly showcase the brand's development. The tasting area is a highlight. Take a sip, and the aroma of malt permeates your tongue as the beer flows smoothly down your throat. The delicious taste is intoxicating, truly captivating.

For first-time visitors to Laoshan, I recommend three days. It's truly vast. On the first day, visit Taiqing and Huayan, on the second, Yangkou and Jiushui, and on the third, Jufeng.
I personally think Laoshan is best suited for self-driving tours. The scenic bus stops directly at the parking lot, so you'll miss out on many scenic views along the way.
How can you visit Qingdao without visiting Laoshan? It's home to Laoshan, the most famous mountain on the sea and the highest peak on China's coastline. I did some research before going and found several scenic areas. My first visit, I chose Yangkou and Taiqing. The scenery was beautiful, and the cable car ride up wasn't tiring. Climbing up to Tianyuan, the view was breathtaking. There's a giant rock inscribed with the Chinese characters "Laoshan" (literally "Laoshan"), offering a panoramic view of the mountains, sea, and sky. I also enjoyed some Laoshan Baihuashecao water and Laoshan Coke, which were quite unique. The Baihuashecao water wasn't too bad, so I was fine. [Laughing and crying]

You must visit the beach in Penglai Pavilion. The beach is full of small stones. It is very comfortable to soak in the sea water after walking all day. We walked there instead of taking the cable car. The Penglai Pavilion is very beautiful. The Penglai noodles in the scenic spot are good and can be tasted.
It's a pity that I didn't see the mirage, but as the place where the Eight Immortals were said to have lived, it is still worth a visit. As soon as you enter the park, you will see the Qi Jiguang Memorial Hall, which has a very detailed introduction and uses modern light and shadow animation to show the life of the national hero.

Stepping into the aquarium is like embarking on a dreamlike underwater journey! Colorful fish swim freely, and the dolphin show is incredibly engaging, lively, and interactive. The venue is well-designed, the educational content is spot-on, and the staff are friendly and professional. This trip to the aquarium is absolutely worth it and highly recommended!
The view of the Ferris wheel on the sea is very beautiful. The other five venues are all very good. There is no need to queue for various projects. There are not many people and the experience is full.

Overall, a family outing to the zoo was a pleasant and enjoyable drive-through. The only downside is that the animals in the free-range area aren't truly free-range, but rather seem to be caged. Otherwise, the environment was quite satisfactory and quite interesting. It's best to go early; if you go late, there will be too much traffic and it will be crowded.

This trip to the Confucius Temple and Confucius Mansion was a truly enriching cultural experience, guided by our guide, Xun. His explanations were easy to understand and gave us a vivid and engaging understanding of Confucian culture. Free luggage storage was available before the tour, and a dedicated shuttle service was provided to return us to the departure point afterward, which was very convenient. The Ctrip staff were also very welcoming.
Qufu boasts the Confucius Temple, Confucius Mansion, and Confucius Cemetery. I drove all the way from Beijing with my nearly 80-year-old parents to visit. Admission is free for those over 60, so I give Shandong a big thumbs up for its cultural tourism. It fulfilled my parents' wish to see the sage's office and residence. Perfect!

The aircraft carrier is very spectacular and suitable for visiting. There are many comprehensive and detailed popular sciences, suitable for people of all ages to visit. It is an unforgettable experience and I will recommend it to my friends. It is suitable for military enthusiasts and people with a sense of gratitude. I hope to be able to board more aircraft carriers in the future. In addition to the aircraft carrier, there are also various wonderful performances and interactive projects. I look forward to seeing the fireworks in the future.
The TEDA aircraft carrier was a great experience. First, we visited the TEDA aircraft carrier. It was my first time inside an aircraft carrier. The design inside was particularly shocking. The shipboard was so large. It was my first time seeing such a large aircraft carrier. The doll experience was also very good. We also went to watch the car race. The players had first-class skills. The experience was very good and amazing. In the afternoon, we went to see the aviation storm. The performance was very realistic and worth coming back next time.
