Cycling Mount Laoshan in October is all about experiencing the mountain and sea painting itself!

While autumn is deep elsewhere, Laoshan is refreshingly crisp. The sea breeze in October washes the air to its clearest, with extremely high visibility. Cycling Laoshan at this time offers a pure blend of blue and white, along with the tranquility of coastal villages. Follow the route to collect this exclusive Qingdao coastal view! 【Stunning Scenic Spots Check-in Guide】 Diaolongzui → Fanling: The ultimate experience of the "cliff coastline"! Wheels hug the cliffside, with emerald waves stretching on one side and layered fishing villages climbing the mountain on the other. White waves crash ashore, seagulls circle—this is the most vivid mountain and sea painting. Qingshan Village: Ride into this "Most Beautiful Coastal Village in China." Layers of red-tiled roofs spread from the mountainside to the sea, colorful fishing boats dock at the pier, and fishermen’s conversations occasionally drift by. There’s no intense autumn color here, only simple, lived-in scenery. Taiqing Section: The best stretch to feel the aura of the "Immortal Mountain." On one side are the ancient eaves of a thousand-year-old Taoist temple, on the other, a quiet bay guarded by pines and strange rocks. The air blends the slight saltiness of seawater with the freshness of forest, a deep breath refreshes the soul. Tea Fields Along the Way: Look closely at both sides of the mountain road! Laoshan’s unique "tea terrace fields" remain lush and green at this time, layer upon layer like green waves, forming a harmonious trio with the blue sky and sea. This is the growing place of the "No.1 Famous Tea in Jiangbei," a rare sight elsewhere. Liuqing River → Dahedong: The coastline suddenly opens up here, a "stadium of wind and sea." Huge wind turbines slowly rotate against the deep blue backdrop, waves draw white lines on the long beach, full of motion and power. 【Photo Tips】 Best Time: 8-10 AM, shoot with the light for the bluest sea. Afternoons may have backlight but are good for silhouettes. Safety First: Always stop to take photos on open viewing platforms or safe areas; never stop on curves! Outfit Suggestion: Bright cycling clothes stand out vividly against the blue and white background, making it easy to capture stunning shots. The joy of cycling is half the thrill of challenging yourself, and half turning these images etched in your mind into exclusive memories. When the sea breeze and sweat soak your clothes, when sunlight and beauty fill your heart, you need a warm space to return your body to comfort and let memories slowly settle. Ruoqi hopes to be the perfect ending to your mountain and sea journey.
