The highest mountain peak along the coast of Quidao is Laoshan Mountain which overlooks the Yellow Sea. The Laoshan Scenic Area is one of the most beautiful areas of Quindao, and is one of the leading tourist destinations in the region. The scenic area was also one of the very first nature parks of China and is considered to be the central shrine of Taoism in China as well.

The Laoshan Scenic Area is 446km2 in size and has several beautiful and awe-inspiring attractions. The area is accessible from multiple routes; eastern, southern and central, and offers visitors a splendid experience amidst some of nature’s finest sights! One of the main attractions of the Laoshan Scenic Area is the Beijiushui, a sparkling waterfall and river which is so tranquil, it is said to relax and ease the mind and body.

In addition to this there is also the Shangquin Palace; the oldest palace in the scenic area, and the Taiquing Palace; a large palace with over 140 rooms. Another intriguing attraction is the Mingxia Cave, which is a temple located in one of the highest and deepest caves in the area.
