2. Qingdao, Shandong

Known as China's sailing city, Qingdao has all the advantages you could expect for a costal city. Cool air, fresh seafood, and well worth visiting!

ShiLaoRen is perhaps Qingdao's most impressive tourist beach. It was named after shape of the prominent rock outcropping located just off ShiLaoRen Peninsula. It is said to resemble an old fisherman waiting for his daughter to return from beneath the waves. With tables, chairs, tents, ATVs, speed boats, jet skis, showers, and a beautiful new boardwalk as well as continuing re-development of the site of the 2008 Olympic Sailing Regatta, this is an ideal place to spend an afternoon or warm summer evening.
