Qingdao: Visit Laoshan Mountain

You can take a taxi from the city, which is not far, or take a bus. If you choose the coastal road, the scenery is very beautiful, and there are spots to stop and take photos. I recommend taking this route (there are tour buses that stop at various points). When you arrive, you can take a cable car to the top (or choose to walk up). Once you reach the top, you will find beautiful views. There are various points to enjoy the scenery, including caves. Be prepared physically and time-wise if you want to explore every spot. There are small shops selling tea, snacks, and instant noodles. The walking path consists of steps.
