Why do many northerners prefer Qingdao when it comes to seeing the sea while there are many coastal areas in the north?

Northerners like to go to Qingdao to see the sea because Qingdao is located in the north of the Yellow Sea and has better sea water resources. Moreover, there are relatively few cities in the north that are located on the seaside. Qingdao is one of the few cities with good tourism services. Among seaside cities, Qingdao is the first choice for most northerners to see the sea. This is also due to Qingdao's tourism promotion work. I believe that the slogan "Hospitable Shandong welcomes you" is familiar to everyone. Such publicity and promotion also has a subtle impact on many tourists.

Another reason is that Qingdao has rich tourism resources. In addition to seeing the sea, you can also choose to go to Zhongshan Park to see the scenery of Qingdao’s old and new cities. Although Qingdao is a city with rich cultural heritage, it is not an ancient city. After being colonized by Germany for several years, the new city was gradually built after Qingdao was recovered. There are many German-style buildings in the old city, and the small German-style villas built on the mountains have a unique flavor.

Qingdao has preserved all these colonial records, which is also a kind of commemoration of history. This is also the rich tourism resource of Qingdao now. In addition, Qingdao has a pleasant climate. Whether you go to Qingdao in the peak season or the off-season, you can feel the characteristics of a coastal city. There are many bathing beaches around Qingdao. The slopes of the beaches are relatively gentle and the sand quality is very fine. There are also many marine recreational facilities, which are important factors in attracting tourists.

There is the famous Sino-Japanese War Memorial Hall in Qingdao, which is also located on the seaside. While looking at the sea, you can also remember the martyrs. This is what makes Qingdao different. The combination of looking back on history and looking forward to the future allows many tourists who come to Qingdao to feel the ancient charm of this young city, and also feel the vicissitudes of this land. It is difficult to find another such unique city in China.
