Stepping into the Tsingtao Beer Museum is like embarking on a fascinating journey through beer culture. In Hall A, I saw yellowed old photos and antique brewing equipment, learning about Tsingtao Beer's century-long history. The gold medal certificate from the 1906 Munich Fair was particularly eye-catching. In Hall B, rusted mashing pots spoke of the past, while modern production lines showcased the power of technology. The 4D cinema and the drunken hut were both fascinating, and the free tastings of raw beer, with its dense foam and rich malt aroma, made this a truly rewarding experience!
The history of beer is not particularly impressive. The children who watched the conveyor belt automatically packing beer were very interested. The children's non-alcoholic beverage seemed to be barley tea. The overall cost-effectiveness is not high compared to the ticket price.

Qingdao Polar Ocean Park is truly amazing! Beluga whales, dolphins, penguins, polar bears...the variety of polar marine animals is dazzling to see, and the performances are thrilling and interactive. The venue is thoughtfully designed, the underwater tunnel is fantastical, and the scientific information is fascinating. It's perfect for bringing family and friends, and the experience is fantastic. Highly recommended!
It had everything you'd expect, just like any other aquarium. The ice cave was decent, but the Ferris wheel was the kind that had a 2-hour wait and took 10 minutes to complete. It was better to just watch the Ferris wheel from below. Tickets are also quite expensive.

Taking the kids to Tiger Beach Park is a great way to spend a whole day. We toured the five venues and saw a number of performances. We also tried the zip line and the sea chairs, which were a real treat. It was quite fun.
I had a combined ticket for all five museums. My Didi driver dropped me off at the Bird's Singing Forest in the afternoon, so I started there. There weren't many birds, and the parrot show was too crowded, so I skipped it. I crossed the bridge to the Marine Zoo, where I only fed seals and seagulls. Depending on the show time, you can catch a marine show. The Happy Theater is open air, but it's still fun. The Polar Zoo is cooler, where you can see little penguins, polar bears, and various fish. Finally, the Coral Reef Zoo, where I exited through the main gate. You can walk past the 104th Warship and enter the Lingjiao Bay parking lot. You can see Fisherman's Wharf across the street. Travel photography is always crowded.

There are five pavilions in total, and it's crucial to visit them in order, avoiding backtracking. First, visit the Jellyfish Pavilion, then the Seal Pavilion.
From the Seal Pavilion, you can take a 30-minute boat ride out to sea, where you'll see the Naval Museum and the pier.
After disembarking, continue to the Whale Pavilion, where the most breathtaking experience is the underwater world.
Stepping into Qingdao Ocean Park is like falling into a blue dreamscape. In the underwater tunnel, schools of colorful fish swim overhead and beside you, seemingly within reach. Giant sea turtles glides through the water with a leisurely, carefree air. Penguins sway gracefully, their bodies adorable. Beluga whales swim gracefully, dancing with their trainers in heartwarming scenes. During the dolphin show, their leaps soar, stirring up sparkling water, agile and lively. After my visit, I was completely captivated by the wonders of the ocean.

There were so many different kinds of animals, all of them pampered and well-groomed—it was amazing!
The downside was the sheer number of small, expensive items, all of which felt like a rip-off. For example, the magic carpet at the exit—when I bought my ticket, it said it would take me directly to the exit, but it only took three minutes to get there, about 200 meters? It was still far from the exit, so I had to switch to the slide, which cost me another fee! And the slide only lasted 200 meters, which felt like a rip-off.
Today I went to Xixiakou Shendiaoshan Wildlife Park. The whole park is very large and it takes a long time to walk. From the glass plank road, you can see tigers and wolves below.

The animals in the zoo are pretty good, but there are too many charges. The battery car is charged in different areas. Four people have to spend another 160 yuan to ride in the zoo for a day.
It is worth going with a baby (under 10 years old), after all, watching animals is the fun of children. The park is very large. There are fewer people taking a taxi to the south gate. It is necessary to have a tropical fan on the cable car. The cable car is very small for two adults. You can overlook the sea bridge. The north gate cable car is in a long queue. I bought a battery ticket to visit the North District. It is very hot and tired to walk. There are not too many animals. Animals in the animal area are not active in summer, the area is not big, you need to take a car, 60 per person, give a bunch of apples, a bunch of meat, but only black bears to eat, have been to Beijing Daxing Safari Park, Chimelong, will be slightly disappointed here, all kinds of prices are inflated, service can not keep up.

Guoxiu Langya is quite good, but the seating arrangement in Area A is a bit of a problem. Seats 1-2 at the front aren't as good as those in Area 2-2, and I don't know why you can't choose the higher seats. So, I spent the money for Area A but didn't get the full experience! That's a bit disappointing.
Otherwise, it's quite fun. There are many performances, but the crowds are also quite large, so you have to fight for a spot. It's quite hot during the day, but better at night! The water show is nice and well worth seeing.
- Special Performances: Langya Grand Theater, built with the utmost care and dedication by Langya Ancient Town, is the largest indoor professional theater for tourist performances in Jiangbei. Its folding canopy and lifting picture frame are national firsts. The scenic area has presented large-scale tourist performances such as "National Show · Langya," "Only Langya," "Water Show," and "Fire Show," which have accumulated over 15,000 performances.
- Tourism Experience: Visitors to Langya Ancient Town can stroll through the bluestone streets and admire traditional handicrafts such as paper-cutting, a cultural heritage, and immerse themselves in its rich cultural heritage. They can also savor local specialties such as wolf tooth grilled skewers and seafood tofu pudding, enjoying a unique atmosphere intertwined with history and fireworks.

Dalian Ocean Park is a paradise for children. It has a rich variety of activities. You can choose activities suitable for children according to their different age groups. Don’t miss it when you come to Dalian.
The performances in each venue are suitable for children and adults, but there are too many people. There are VIP tickets in the scenic area, which is recommended to be purchased. Otherwise, the queue will take up most of the time for the tour and the experience will not be good. If you go when the park opens in the morning, you can visit the underwater tunnel first. We went to visit the underwater tunnel in the afternoon. If you can't get in by queuing for two or three hours, the two of us will decisively buy a stuffed toy for 100 yuan, and then we can go through the VIP channel.

Qingdao Governor's Mansion: A Journey Through Time Through a Century
Stepping into the Qingdao Governor's Mansion is like opening a thick history book, each page filled with stories. Built between 1905 and 1907, this building perfectly blends the typical architectural style of the German Wilhelmine era with Jugendstil techniques, incorporating elements of Classicism, Rococo, castle-style, and Chinese styles, leaving one breathtakingly impressed by its exquisite design.
The decorations and furnishings within the building reflect the opulence of the era. From the exquisite wood carvings, ornate stained glass, to the elegant fireplace, every detail showcases exquisite craftsmanship. The desk and sofa in the study bear witness to the busy presence of their former owner; the piano in the small reception room, though silent, speaks of the elegance of bygone times.
What impressed me most during my visit were the traces of history. This place was once the official residence of several governors-general, witnessing the changing times of Qingdao. Chairman Mao stayed here in 1957, and the room layout still retains its original appearance, inspiring awe.
The Qingdao Governor's Building is more than just a building; it's a witness to history and a transmitter of culture. Here, architectural art and historical culture blend seamlessly, creating an immersive experience that will leave you wanting more. If you're interested in history and architecture, don't miss this hidden gem and experience its unique charm firsthand!
It's worth a visit. Don't rush through the sights if you need an explanation. It's best to take a taxi if you only visit the Governor's Mansion. It's a bit far from the subway entrance. If you have enough energy, you can check in at the popular bridge and Hayao Miyazaki's comic wall along the way.

Chengshantou Scenic Area: A 4A scenic area, ranked 11th on the Shandong Family Attractions list, it focuses on seaside water activities. Located in Xixiakou, 32.5 km from the city center, it closes at 6:00 PM. Tickets start at 138 yuan, with buy-as-you-go, same-day bookings, and refunds available at any time. A 10 yuan discount has been offered. The seaside scenery is perfect for family trips.
The first place in China to see the sunrise, standing at the end of the world, looking at the endless sea, flocks of seagulls circling in the sky, very spectacular. In summer, it is recommended to set off early, otherwise it will be too sunny. Walking along the plank road while enjoying the sea view, the sea breeze blowing on your face is very comfortable.
