Things to do in Pingdu

Away from the hustle and bustle of the city, it's nice to go to the mountains to release stress. It's a niche scenic spot during holidays, with many people but not as crowded as popular scenic spots. You can also see monkeys. The only thing is that the redemption method of online tickets is a bit old-fashioned, and you need to queue up at a special manual window to handle it.

The Qingdao Beer Museum offers a glimpse into the history and production process of Qingdao Beer. A beer tasting session is also included. Beer lovers are sure to check it out.

The children had a lot of fun. It is a recommended place, especially the big slide, which they played many times.

Of the Five Sacred Mountains, Mount Tai is the most revered. The hike from Hongmen to Yuhuangding is a classic experience, with breathtaking scenery along the way. Stone carvings dot the route, dating back to the Tang Dynasty and more recently to the Republic of China era, creating a historical corridor. Confucius said, "Ascending Mount Tai, one feels the world is small."

Not bad, we climbed up and took the cable car down. But I actually think we should have taken the cable car up and then continued climbing to the very top of Tianyuan, and then come down. That way we could have seen the whole panorama. We were so tired climbing up that when we saw the cable car, we didn't want to climb anymore, and we didn't reach the top; we just came back.

Everyone knows that the grapes 🍇 in Daze Mountain, Pingdu City are famous, but few people know that the cherries 🍒 and mulberries in Daze Mountain are also very sweet and delicious 😋 At the invitation of a friend, we drove up the mountain and came to a piece of mountain land contracted by the parents of a friend’s hometown. The whole mountain was full of cherry trees 🍒 and mulberry trees. There was a thick layer of ripe fruits under each tree 🍒. My friend said that the young people in the family went out to work, and the elderly did not pick them in time. They had limited food to eat, and there was no sales channel. They just let relatives and friends bring their children to experience it on weekends. Anyway, they don’t expect to make money from this now. It’s so delicious, you can eat it as you like, pick it as you like. Everyone picked a few boxes, and the car couldn’t fit them. There is nothing so delicious that is naturally ripe in the city 😄

A must-see attraction in Jinan, the chrysanthemum exhibition is also very beautiful recently. The continuous gushing of Baotu Spring is quite amazing, and it gets really crowded. Going early is better. The spring water is incredibly clear when the weather is good.

Having climbed Signal Hill, it would be a shame not to go here. It's great for viewing the scenery, and it really is beautiful! But it's not ideal for taking photos; there's glass blocking the view, and the glass was a bit dirty. Maybe my phone isn't good enough, though, because I couldn't take any decent pictures. On the way down Signal Hill, there are viewing platforms and pavilions where you can actually take better photos.

Absolutely beautiful. The interior features exquisite and unique artwork. The courtyard has a distinctive layout, and the rooms are all unique, reflecting different architectural styles from various countries. Worth a visit.

We took our family and children to Liugong Island for the holiday. The overall safety measures at the scenic area and the efficient and safe transfer of tourists were quite effective. We were able to feed the seagulls while on the boat, and the children had a wonderful time.
