Come to this island in Qingdao for summer fun!

Xiaomai Island is a circular island connected to the mainland by only one road, facing the Qingdao urban area across the sea. It was established during the Yongle period of the Ming Dynasty and has a history of more than 600 years. Transportation: You can take the subway line 2 to Maidao Road Station and walk to the island; you can also drive there, but the surrounding area including the road to the island is still under construction, not fully developed, so be careful. Xiaomai Island is quite small, and it can be walked around in one hour without taking photos. If you plan to take photos, it's best to reserve 2-3 hours depending on your situation. Tour Route: After arriving on the island, you can first follow the inner line around the island to enjoy the natural scenery; then walk along the coastal line, feeling the spring breeze and the beauty of 'Qingdao's Little Kenting'. Photo Spots: Popular Tree: The popular pine tree on Xiaomai Island is the loneliest seaside tree. The best photo spot has been fenced off, so do not climb over the railing! You can also take pictures with mountains and sea in the background next to it. East Side Lawn: The east side lawn looks particularly beautiful, especially in the soft light of the afternoon, which is a great time for photography. Sunset: At sunset, you can enjoy a sunset all to yourself on the island. tips: Some areas of the island's lawn are fenced off, please do not trample on the grass at will. The island is busier with tourists during holidays, so it's recommended to plan ahead and travel at off-peak times. Also, Qingdao has a significant temperature difference between day and night, so remember to bring a jacket when watching the sunset in the evening to avoid catching a cold.
