Badaguan, located east of Huiquan in Shinan District, Qingdao City, Shandong Province, on the southern slope of Taiping Mountain, was built in the 1930s and covers an area of over 70 hectares. It's called "Badaguan" because there are eight roads (now ten) along the route, named after a famous pass on the ancient Great Wall of China. It's a renowned villa complex, known as the "Museum of International Architecture." Its beautiful scenery and pleasant environment make it a popular tourist attraction and a favorite destination for tourists.
Badaguan is also a must-see attraction in Qingdao. It’s nice to take a walk here and look at the buildings and trees when the weather is good. It’s also very close to the second bathing beach, so it’s nice to check in together.

This was the most enjoyable trip I've had recently! It had rained the day before, so the area was completely deserted, and there were no lines anywhere. It was a fantastic experience! Aside from the one woman and two men on Line 8's sightseeing bus who were completely unwilling to serve and were impatient when I asked a simple question, everything else was great. It was fun, perfect for photos and exploring! The elderly man at the Capibara scenic area was so kind, he kept coaxing Capibara, who didn't want to be in business, into taking photos. So sweet!

Hongye Valley Scenic Area is located in Liuyan Town, the southern mountainous area of Jinan City. The traffic is relatively convenient. When you arrive at the roadside, you have to take a few kilometers to a large hillside. The most suitable season for Hongye Valley is autumn. It is probably suitable for tourism in three months. It is recommended to play for one day. In the evening, you can return to Jinan city to stay and eat. The Hongye Valley has beautiful scenery, fresh air in the mountains, and a natural oxygen bar. It is very suitable for travel and vacation camping.
Jinan Red Leaf Valley is a national 4A-level scenic spot located in the southern mountainous area and is famous for its beautiful scenery in all seasons. In autumn, the mountains are all red, and the sea of cotinus is dyed with layers of forests, which can be called a poetic portrayal of "frost leaves are redder than February flowers". In spring, the tulip sea spreads over the European-style valley, and millions of Dutch tulips and windmill sculptures complement each other, just like Monet's dream garden. In summer, the valley is lush and green, with waterfalls and springs, and the negative oxygen ion content is as high as 300 times that of the urban area, making it a summer resort; in winter, the snow covers the green pines and the fragrance of winter plums floats, creating a unique artistic conception. In the scenic area, the Autumn Lake is as blue as a mirror, and the Wanye Tower is a high-altitude glass drifting, rainbow slide and other interesting projects. The transportation is convenient, and it can be reached by car or bus, which is suitable for family travel, photography and leisure.

Shimenfang has a long history and profound cultural heritage. As early as the Shang Dynasty, people admired this place. The Panggong Temple in the scenic area has a history of more than 3,000 years. It was built to commemorate the tomb of Pang Boling, the king of the Shang Dynasty. There are more than 70 cliff statues from the Tianbao period of the Tang Dynasty, which are precious historical relics and provide valuable information for the study of ancient Chinese history and the social background of the Tang Dynasty.
🎢Entertainment projects:
In addition to beautiful scenery and history, Shimenfang also has many fun entertainment projects!
The roller coaster lets you feel the thrill of riding the wind and receive your own purple passion and romance;
The 3,000-square-meter go-kart track has two large-turnaround cool tracks, allowing you to enjoy speed and passion;
The colorful slide with a total length of more than 120 meters allows you to slide down from a high altitude and enjoy the pleasure brought by the gravity drop;
There is also a high-altitude glass drift with a total length of about 3,333 meters, with a 360-degree transparent corner. Adults and children can play, and while feeling the wind and lightning, they can also enjoy the beautiful scenery of the mountains.
There are too many things I want to say. First, the cultural landscape, there are cliff carvings, stone statues, and the eight major scenes of Linqu "Pianyi Shimen Evening Glow Remnant", which I will not mention due to space limitations. There are many celebrity stone carvings. Second, the natural landscape, lush vegetation, gurgling streams, especially many small trees on the cliffs, twisted and circling, very interesting. The hiking trails are newly renovated and convenient for walking. The most important thing is the natural oxygen bar.

Inside the scenic area, there's a 4,700-year-old ginkgo tree that's well worth a look. When I arrived, the area wasn't crowded, and some parts were still undergoing renovations. I felt a bit tired before completing the entire tour, so I left. I bought my tickets on Ctrip; China Mobile users get a huge discount!
👉Fulai Mountain Scenic Area is formed by Feilai Peak, Fulai Peak and Folai Peak. The three peaks are connected in an arch and look like a sleeping dragon, with a unique and elegant charm.

Although the weather was not ideal that day, I was lucky enough to see the spectacular sight of the Yellow River meeting the Bohai Sea. Although the boundary between yellow and blue was not particularly obvious, it was better than not being able to see it clearly!
The mouth of the Yellow River in Dongying is a unique site in China, showcasing the spectacular "Yellow-Blue Intersection." Visiting in the early morning, when the light is soft, is recommended for capturing the dividing line where the river meets the sea. Enjoy a sightseeing boat trip into the wetlands, encountering flocks of migratory birds and the wild beauty of reed marshes. Don't forget to sample the delicious local Yellow River Estuary hairy crab! The scenic area is quite large, so plan to allow 3-4 hours for your visit. The red carpet of color is at its most stunning in autumn.

The performers were incredibly hardworking and impressive! 👍 It was a hot day, and there was air conditioning inside. Tickets for three people were over 190 yuan on Ctrip. Scalpers inside the park were 50 yuan per ticket, and Douyin was also cheaper. I paid more, but the experience was worth it. Go early in the morning to choose your seat; the front row is amazing! The F3 I chose had a cable to block it, but the E was even better. The clown was adorable, but it was a bit pricey at 60 yuan, which was worth the price per person...
Rizhao Seaside Park is located in Rizhao City, Shandong Province. It is a scenic seaside leisure resort.

A hidden gem! Just a half-hour drive from Mount Tai, it's surprisingly sparsely populated even during the peak summer season. It's truly a genuine ancient temple. The glazed-tiled main hall remains unrenovated, preserving its pristine appearance. The vividly colored arhat sculptures within are truly one-of-a-kind treasures! There's also a Pizhi pagoda, a gatehouse embracing ancient tree roots, and… Surrounded by mountains, it's a truly wonderful place!
Lingyan Temple, a thousand-year-old temple hidden in the mountains, exudes tranquility and sacredness. Its magnificent ancient buildings, with carved beams and painted rafters, evoke a sense of history. The towering Pizhi Pagoda bears witness to the passage of time. The vividly colored sculptures of Arhats within the Thousand Buddha Hall are of immense artistic value. Surrounded by mountains and forests, the serene environment offers a tranquil escape from the hustle and bustle, allowing visitors to experience a unique sense of tranquility and Zen.
