Great Post mate… I have lived here since 2002. The city’s going through a lot of changes… Subway station being built… cars everywhere… traffic jams and polluted air…
Thank you for the pictures… I usually bike along the coast and that’s why I would never leave this city!

@Robert
There are indeed several beachside German villa mansions still there in Qingdao. I’m not sure where exactly you could get pictures of them though. Good luck.

I am interested in learning more about German architecture in Tsingtao and especially Iltis Huk. Are the old beachside villa mansions still there and where can I get some quality pictures of them.

Hi Ben! I have read your blog for a while, but never commented. I’m glad you liked Qingdao so much. I studied Chinese there for two summers in a row and it’s still my favorite Chinese city. Your pictures bring back so many memories–looks like you really hit all the high points in your visit!

Lucy, I noticed the Tsingtao beer in Hong Kong also tastes quite different from what we get on the Mainland. I looked at the bottle and noticed it was 5% alcohol. That little bit extra ethanol on its own would alter the flavour, ethanol being a flavour enhancer- and the HK brews had noticeably more flavour than the Mainland version.
