Store Your Luggage Around Qingdao With Bounce

Qingdao, also referred to as Tsingtao, is a key city in the Chinese province of Shandong and is a major seaport, industrial center and naval base. Situated on the western side of Yellow Sea, Qingdao, whose name literally means “Green Island” is one of China’s most important cities and has the highest GDP among any other city in Shandong.

In fact, there are still remnants of the concession-era, particularly when the city was colonized by Germany, found all over the city – from its cobbled streets and hillside villa to historic German architecture.
