Direct flight from Guangzhou is very convenient 『Qingdao•Zhanqiao』

If you come to Qingdao in winter, you must see the seagulls flying from Siberia! This is the most beautiful seagull paradise in China~ It’s the time when the Siberian seagulls return. At this time every year, 100,000 red-billed gulls come to Qingdao to spend the winter, from 300 in 1994 to 100,000 today. It tells the story of the natural harmony between Qingdao and seagulls. Come to Qingdao and experience the limited romance of winter without spending any money🌊 ➖ 📍Location: Pier ✅You can interact with seagulls on the pier. There are dense dots on the sea surface. Sometimes they take off collectively, sometimes they hover collectively, Spectacular and interesting. Throw the food high into the sky and the seagulls will rush to eat it. Even if you put the food in your hands, the bold seagulls will take the food away from you when you are not paying attention. So cute! ➖ ✅Photography tips 🌟The recommended time is 10 am to 12 pm and 2 pm to 4 pm, the light is softer (they will fly away after 4:30) You can bring dry bread to feed the seagulls, which will make it easier to attract seagulls to the same frame. 🌟You can walk to the middle of the pier, where you can take pictures of seagulls and the Catholic Church 🌟There are many photographers taking photos on the pier, so it doesn’t matter if you go alone. 🌟Light-colored clothes go well with the sea, blue sky and seagulls ➖ ✅Feeding food Seagulls like fried dough sticks or sweet little cakes, old-fashioned bread is also ok! You can buy a bag of bread in advance at a convenience store. If you find it troublesome, you can also buy it on the spot. There are seagull food for sale everywhere on the pier. It costs a few yuan 💰 (don’t buy steamed buns) After ten o'clock in the morning is a good time to feed the seagulls. The interaction is good and the weather is clear, making it great for taking photos! ➖ ✅How to get there? 🚗Self-driving: Navigate to the Zhanqiao parking lot, the parking fee is 10 yuan/hour. (It is extremely difficult to park near the pier. You can directly search for "Qingdao Zhanqiao Square Parking Lot🅿️" on the navigation. This is a large underground parking lot. Go up to the pier.) 🚆Metro: Get off at Qingdao Station on Line 3, exit from Exit G, turn right and walk for a few minutes. #Greater Bay Area must-visit check-in spots
