Listening to Stefanie Sun's concert, encountering Qingdao after sunset

In Stefanie Sun's song "Just After Sunset," I stumbled upon a breathtaking sunset in Qingdao, truly unforgettable! Strolling along the Zhanqiao Pier, the setting sun casts golden light on the sea horizon, complementing the distant Huilan Pavilion. Flocks of seagulls soar over the sea, sometimes skimming the water, sometimes soaring into the sky, embracing the sea breeze and sunset—romantic and pleasant. As night falls, neon lights twinkle along Fushan Bay, and the light show decorates the city like a dream. Take a city walk along the coastal promenade, feel the sea breeze, watch the distant skyscrapers shining brightly, and experience the romance and prosperity of this seaside city. 🎵 Stefanie Sun Concert, a reunion of youth At the concert, 80,000 glow sticks waved with the music, from "Tian Hei Hei" to "Encounter," each song a memory of youth. When the melody of "Sunset" played, the whole audience sang along, and at that moment, time seemed to stand still. The curved giant screen surrounded a huge wheat field installation, and the semi-circular dome created the theme world of "Just After Sunset." Stefanie Sun slowly rose from the center of the stage, and the screen changed from deep blue to sunset pink-orange, then to a full display of fireworks, like the 25 years we have walked with her. Listening to Stefanie Sun's "Sunset," who can resist chasing a stunning sunset in Qingdao? After the concert, why not visit these places to encounter your own Qingdao sunset! 🌾 Wheat Island: An artistic and fresh sunset island Wheat Island is truly a treasure spot for watching sunsets! Walking along the winding path, the lawn and rocks are dyed warm golden by the sunset. Sitting on the seaside rocks, gentle waves at your feet, before your eyes is a sunset like an orange sea, the sky gradually changing from deep blue to orange-red, creating a full atmosphere. Find an open lawn, use the sea and sunset as the background for photos, and you’ll get great shots in no time 📸 Many people bring guitars here to sing and play, enjoying the beauty of life with music and sunset. ⛵ Olympic Sailing Center: Sunset at sea blending with city nightscape In the evening, board a boat at the Olympic Sailing Center to start a sea sunset chase. The boat slowly sails toward the sea, the setting sun gradually sinking ahead, dyeing the sea golden. The distant city skyline outlines a spectacular silhouette under the sunset glow. When night falls and the city lights come on, you can enjoy the magnificent light show of Fushan Bay, blending with the sunset glow—so beautiful it leaves you speechless. Stroll along Lover’s Wharf, where the lighthouse and sunset frame together, and every snap is a masterpiece. 🌊 Jinmao Bay: A quiet and secluded sunset bay Compared to popular spots, Jinmao Bay offers more tranquility. The coastline here is wide, with marine-themed sculptures beside the wooden boardwalk. Sitting on the steps, watch the sun slowly dip below the horizon, the sky dyed in brilliant colors, and the shimmering sea like spilled orange soda. The outdoor dining area of nearby malls is a perfect viewing spot—order a drink and quietly enjoy the peaceful beauty of the sunset, truly healing. 🎨 University Road: The sunset charm of an artistic neighborhood The red walls and yellow tiles of University Road are gilded with golden edges at sunset, full of vintage charm. Strolling along the street, sunlight filters through the leaves, casting dappled shadows, and the cafes and bookstores along the way feel especially warm. At the end, you can gaze far out at the sea and sunset, capturing the beauty of the artistic neighborhood and seaside sunset in one view. Every photo looks cinematic, letting you feel the city’s artistic vibe and romance. 🌄 Xiaoyushan Hill: Overlooking the panoramic sunset of mountain, sea, and city Climb to the viewing pavilion on Xiaoyushan Hill to take in Qingdao’s red roofs, green trees, blue sea, and sky. At sunset, the afterglow bathes the ancient buildings, the red roofs turning orange-red, contrasting with green vegetation and blue sea, like a stunning oil painting. Here you can enjoy a 360-degree unobstructed sunset view, where city, mountain, sea, and sunset merge—spectacular and charming. Every shutter click is wallpaper-worthy. 🗼 Signal Hill: The sunset feast of the red-roofed city The three red mushroom pavilions on Signal Hill are perfect spots to watch the sunset. Standing inside, you see the dense red roofs of Qingdao’s old town shining brightly under the sunset. In the distance, Zhanqiao Pier, Little Qingdao, and the sea form a beautiful picture. As the sun sets, the sky’s colors shift from golden yellow to orange-red to rose purple, enveloping the city in a dreamlike glow, letting you feel the unique charm of the old town. In Qingdao, every sunset is a gift from nature. After watching Stefanie Sun’s concert, don’t miss these romantic sunset spots—go and encounter your own stunning sunset!
