Lying across the Shandong Peninsula, Qingdao is surrounded by hills and waters and is endowed with gorgeous scenery and mild climate. It’s a globally-known coastal city mostly because of its Qingdao Beer and the annually held Qingdao International Beer Festival, which attracts tourists and beer-lovers from all over the planet. In addition to Qingdao’s many international festivals and enchanting nightlife, its stunning, sinuous coastlines also fascinate tourists: sunny bathing beach, colorful Qingdao Polar Ocean World, precipitous Lao Shan, exotic Eight Great Passes and the twin-spired St. Michael's Cathedral, as well as the wide varieties of scenic spots scattered in Qingdao form a unique view combined of Chinese traditions, European styles and modern features.
