[2025 Qingdao Attraction] Travel Guide for The Pla Naval Museum (Updated May)

It's still a bit cold in Qingdao in March and April, but it's totally fine to relax and unwind by the sea for a few days! Our three-day trip started at noon every day, mainly for rest, so we didn't go to many attractions. Here's a brief overview: 🌊DAY1 Xiaoyushan Park – Luxun Park – Qinyu Road – Naval Museum – Xiao Qingdao – Tuandao Seafood Market 🌊DAY2 Laoshan Mountain (Taiqing Scenic Area) – Xiao Li Buyi Korean Restaurant – May Fourth Square 🌊DAY3 Lover's Dam – Olympic Sailing Center – Tsingtao Beer Museum – Yingkou Seafood Market ❤️Highly Recommended❤️ 🏠Accommodation: Guanlan Mansion Seaview Holiday Villa (Mixc City, May Fourth Square, Qingdao). The location is excellent, right next to the seaside promenade. We stayed in the September room, which has a huge terrace. We loved watching the sea, and you can even watch the sunrise from bed 🌅. The photos on Trip.com don't do it justice. The host is handsome and very enthusiastic. There's a coffee shop and a swimming pool downstairs, perfect for relaxing. (Although we didn't stay there, Qinyu Hai, a guesthouse on Qinyu Road, had a great vibe when we went there for coffee. Recommended 👍) 🎨Dining [One] I recommend Bobo Beer House next to Yingkou. It's run by people from Northeast China who are warm and friendly, and the prices are reasonable. The food is also very good. [Two] Shuanghe Garden's sea urchin fried rice is better than Kaihai's! [Three] You must have a Korean meal. Anyway, it's much better than in Xi'an. We went to Xiao Li Buyi and enjoyed a mouthful of cheese. So happy 😊 ⚠️Things to Avoid and Notes⚠️ 1⃣️ The prices at Tuandao Seafood Market are a bit more expensive than at Yingkou. After buying seafood in Tuandao, we were taken to a shop in the market to have it processed, and it was really bad! It made us feel like we wasted our money on the seafood! It's right across from the beer stand. 2⃣️ If you go during this season, be sure to dress warmly, especially when going to Laoshan Mountain. The fog can roll in quickly, and the wind can pick up suddenly. You'll know if you catch a cold. 3⃣️ Just buy the regular ticket for the Tsingtao Beer Museum (A+B Hall), which includes two glasses of beer and some beer beans. You can buy a noodle skin at the 1903 Bakery when you leave, which is quite delicious.

My dears, I won't allow anyone to miss out on experiencing the beauty of the Meiju Elegant Hotel (Qingdao May Fourth Square Olympic Sailing Center)! 🚉 Transportation Guide: Buy a high-speed train ticket to Qingdao Station, then take subway line 3 to Jiangxi Road Station, use Exit C, and walk about 600–700m to Meiju Elegant Hotel (Qingdao May Fourth Square Olympic Sailing Center). 🛏 Room Amenities: Walking into the room, you'll be greeted by a full range of amenities, from disposable toiletries to shower caps and toilet seat covers, all of which reflect the hotel's care and attention to detail. The cleanliness here is exemplary. The cleaning lady diligently cleans the room and replenishes supplies every day. Every day after playing, returning to the room and seeing the clean, tidy, and spotless environment will make you feel particularly comfortable [Cute][Cute][Cute]. The receptionists are also very warm and thoughtful, not only helping to deliver luggage to the room, but also considerately putting card sleeves on the ID cards. Every detail makes people feel the warmth of home❤️❤️❤️. ⏳ Playtime Qingdao's natural beauty is like a dynamic painting, which is refreshing and intoxicating😌. Take subway line 3 to check out St. Michael's Cathedral, Small Qingdao Naval Museum, and Luxun Park. These attractions are close to each other, making it very convenient to visit. At the end of the trip, I also went to Taidong Pedestrian Street, where the snack street is very lively at night. 🌟 Highlighted Services: After a day of sightseeing, you can return to the hotel with your tired body and enjoy a foot bath to relax. The hotel provides disposable bags and foot bath bags. After use, just send a message to the thoughtful receptionist, and they will come and take them away, hehe. What's even more surprising is that the hotel also has a good night porridge every night, and also provides laundry and drying services. The receptionist gently let us sleep peacefully, and after waking up and sending a message, the washed and dried clothes will be delivered to us. This thoughtful service is like the warm sun in winter, warm and healing🥰. 📝 Important Tips: There is no elevator in the hotel, but the receptionist will help carry the luggage, so there is no need to worry [Tiptop][Tiptop]. The sound insulation is relatively average. The receptionist told us frankly that there are free steam eye masks and earplugs available at the front desk. I slept very well during these days and it didn't affect me at all haha [Grin][Joyful][Joyful]. In short, come to Qingdao and choose Meiju Elegant Hotel (Qingdao May Fourth Square Olympic Sailing Center), a good place not to be missed. I also hope that you will feel happy during your trip [Yeah][Yeah][Yeah].

Gate 1 and Gate 2 are more crowded, but you can take a picture of the name of the Chinese People's Navy Museum.

Tour route Entrance through Gate 4 (Laixi Road) - Baggage storage at the Visitor Center - Nuclear submarine - Maritime ship exhibition area - Army exhibition hall - Indoor exhibition hall - Baggage collection - Exit through Gate 3 (Qinyu Road) Exhibition Hall Introduction The History Exhibition Hall mainly introduces the history of the founding of the Chinese Navy, its development and growth, as well as its future development prospects. Hall 4 also has immersive interactions that you can experience. The outdoor land equipment exhibition area has many helicopters, fighter jets, bombers, and tanks. It is large and magnificent and is definitely worth a visit. In the nuclear submarine area, you need to select an activity to make a reservation.

All of these can be boarded directly with just a ticket, without the need for a separate reservation.

Take the high-speed train to Qingdao Station, which is in the city center! Do not choose Qingdao West and Qingdao North, they are too far away and inconvenient. 4. When it comes to eating, the seafood is really plump and delicious! You can go to the pier to buy live seafood and find a restaurant to process it, which is super fresh.

This is a small shop opposite the Naval Museum. I thought the food was pretty good! It specializes in dumplings and seafood. Since there are only two of us, we can't order too much. The different colors of dumplings in the Family Dumplings represent different flavors, and the dumpling skin is thin and chewy. The filling is not salty, and the dumplings made with seafood ingredients have no fishy smell. The steamed oysters are very fresh and the garlic part is not bitter. Because I had a cold and didn't want to eat spicy food, the boss made it without spicy sauce for us. The clams were very fresh and the sand was cleaned, so there was no problem of irritating my teeth. Although the shop is small, the food is good! If you come out to eat at the Naval Museum, it is across the street from the museum. This one is a good choice. #qq.com #qq.com food #dumplings

As China's first military museum to comprehensively showcase the development of the navy, it not only carries the weight of history but also highlights the glory and strength of the navy. 💪 🚢The Shock of Warship Models🚢 Upon entering, I was immediately struck by the massive warship models!

Standing on the deck, I could almost hear the roar of the waves and the rumble of the warships, a feeling of excitement and pride that is hard to put into words. 🚢 💡Travel Tips💡 1.

I've passed by the Qingdao Navy Museum many times, but today was my first time visiting. It was really amazing, cool, and photogenic. Even someone like me who isn't interested in military themes couldn't help but be amazed! The museum is located next to the Zhanqiao Scenic Area, facing each other! It is divided into an indoor exhibition hall, an outdoor sea exhibition hall, and a land exhibition hall. The sea section is especially impressive, with China's first destroyer, the Anshan Ship: 101, the first domestically produced destroyer, the Jinan Ship: 105, the first domestically produced air defense frigate, the Yingtan Ship: 531, which participated in the Nansha Sea Battle, the first nuclear submarine, the Changzheng 1, the first experimental submarine, the Great Wall 200, and the Yangtze River Ship, which Chairman Mao once rode, all docked at the port. You can board the warships to experience their power and grandeur, and appreciate the difficulties and gradual strength of the Chinese Navy, as well as the strength of our country! The museum is a national first-class museum and is free of charge, but reservations are required in advance. The sea nuclear submarine also requires a separate reservation in advance, with a daily limit on the number of visitors, making it very difficult to get a ticket. I didn't manage to get one this time!

During the National Day holiday, I took my child to the China Navy Museum to learn about the history of the Chinese navy, get to know various naval equipment, and board a warship. It was a fruitful study tour. 🌈Highlights: 1. The China Navy Museum of the People's Liberation Army is in an excellent location. It is adjacent to Lu Xun Park in the east, Xiaoqingdao Park in the west, and Zhanqiao in the distance. It overlooks the boundless sea in the south and Signal Hill Park, a famous scenic spot in Qingdao, in the north. 2. The museum is mainly divided into indoor, sea, and land exhibition areas, including the basic display of the history of the People's Navy, the main exhibition hall square, the Navy Hero Square, the land equipment exhibition area, and the sea equipment exhibition area. The land area is 141.1 acres, and the sea area is 225 acres. It is the only military museum in China that reflects the development of the Chinese navy. 🏠Address: 8 Laiyang Road, Shinan District, Qingdao, Shandong 🚗Transportation 🚌Bus route: Take bus No. 6, 26, 202, 214, 228, 231, 304, 312, 316, 411, or Tunnel No. 6 in Qingdao to Lu Xun Park Station. 🚇Subway route: 1.

Boys must go to the Navy Museum, after all, there are not many places with nuclear submarines and warships. Let the children feel the strength of the motherland and understand the hardships of history. Enter from Gate 4, the queue is the shortest. Exit from Gate 3 (Qinyu Road). Qinyu Road is a very beautiful seaside! The sea view on the warship is so beautiful. Note: Reservation tickets (popular periods will be released at midnight, and it is easy to grab tickets during the midnight period). The entire play time is two to three hours. The only downside is that there is no manual explanation, the explanation is the kind of team appointment, there is no separate family.

#September2024 🚗🏛️ Qingdao self-driving tour diary 🌊🚙 Today's itinerary was particularly rich. We visited two unique attractions in Qingdao, namely the Qingdao German Prison Site Museum and the Chinese People's Liberation Army Navy Museum! First, we came to the Qingdao German Prison Museum. The museum is located at No. 23 Changzhou Road, Shibei District, Qingdao City. It was built in 1900. It was a prison specifically for detaining non-Chinese prisoners during the German occupation of Qingdao. We spent $25 to experience a "prison tour". This building, which has a history of over a hundred years, is no longer an ordinary prison, but an experience place designed for tourists. Through this trip, we understand that peace is hard-won and we should cherish our present life. Afterwards, we came to the Chinese People's Liberation Army Navy Museum which was not far away. It is open to the public free of charge, but reservations must be made in advance through the mini program. The museum showcases China's military prowess, the facilities inside are absolutely amazing, and many of the displays are usually difficult to see elsewhere. These two attractions are easily accessible by car or public transportation. Remember to make an appointment in advance to visit and don’t miss this wonderful exploration trip! 🗺️🔍🚗 Figures 1 to 6: Chinese People's Liberation Army Navy Museum 📍No. 8 Laiyang Road, Shinan District, Qingdao City, Shandong Province Figures 7 to 9: Qingdao German Prison Museum 📍No. 23, Changzhou Road, Shinan District, Qingdao City, Shandong Province #Qingdao #Qingdao Attractions
