Description

Number One Bathing Beach is the most popular beach in Qingdao, its 800 metre long stretch of golden sand a magnet for tourists in the summer months. Unfortunately, the downside of having such a beautiful, long, sandy beach is that it gets crowded very quickly. Don’t expect to have a large patch of the beach to yourself, not in Qingdao, nor anywhere in China for that matter. However, on the up side, this beach is usually one of the locations of the Qingdao International Beer Festival, the biggest beer festival in China which usually takes place in the second week of August. During the festival, the beach transforms into a huge party zone. Surrounded by hotels and entertainment complexes, the beach is the place to be if you like to be surrounded by the buzzing of life. If the crowds get too much then Number One Bathing Beach has some good escape options like Zhongshan Park (中山公园), the biggest in the city and home to several specialised gardens or Little Fish Hill (小鱼山) which provides excellent views of Qingdao city.
