Shenyang-haikou Expressway, which starts from Shenyang in Liaoning Province in the north and ends at Haikou in Hainan Province in the south, is one of the important north-south highway traffic arteries in China.On June 5, CCTV "Along China's Expressways" focused on Qingdao, a city along the Shenyang-haikou Expressway.

When you walk into the old town of Qingdao, the most attractive thing is the various kinds of buildings. The net red wall on Daxuelu Road and Yushan Lu Road has become a must-see photo mecca in Qingdao. Yellow glazed tiles, red walls, and unique road signs make many couples take pictures here, and here it is, meeting love around the corner.

Turn left along Daxue Lu Road and you will find another Netflix hit spot - Huangxian Lu Road. Various literary graffiti walls and comic walls, which at once seem to enter the world of Hayao Miyazaki's manga, give the old town a new life.

One of the places you must visit when you come to Qingdao is the Eight Great Passes. There are ten roads in seven horizontal and three vertical directions. Here, it is the gem of Qingdao people.

Alongside the sidewalks, on both sides of the road, there is green everywhere, and every frame is mesmerizing. Each road is situated with a different style of villas, which is the essence of the Eight Great Passes.

Kang Youwei, who is prominent scholar of Confucian classics and leader of the reform movement that culminated in the Hundred Days' Reform in 1898, said that Qingdao is a place where it is not too cold and not too hot, and where boats and cars are available.

Related to this, of course, is the sea. Order a cup of coffee to sit, with the sea breeze at sunset, this place is as beautiful as a painting.

The Olympic Sailing Center is also an iconic landmark in Qingdao, and below it is the venue for the 2008 Olympic sailing competition.

At Valentine Dam, there are many couples strolling here in the evening.

At the end of the dike is the lighthouse, symbolizing guardianship and sunlight, signifying hope and lighting the way home for all those who sail at night.

When you are tired of shopping, find a restaurant by the sea and sit down, order a beer and a few plates of fatty seafood, feel the city and the world.

The night view is also one of the features of Qingdao, and the most important thing you can't miss is the light show here. Because of the light, Qingdao, at night, is more fascinating.

After reading these, you will surely fall in love with this city.
