1. Qingdao’s Zhanqiao
Zhanqiao is the symbol of Qingdao and the pride of Qingdao people.
It is located in Qingdao Bay, with a total length of 440 meters and a width of 8 meters. In the 1930s, the Zhanqiao was praised as the top ten scenic spots in Qingdao and one of the twenty-four scenic spots in Qingdao. Many literati and poets wrote poems praising it. Important guests and celebrities at home and abroad came to Qingdao for sightseeing. , all have to go to the trestle to enjoy the seaside scenery.
The famous Tsingtao Beer trademark at home and abroad is designed with the trestle as the pattern. [Overview of Zhanqiao] Zhanqiao has a history of more than a hundred years. She has witnessed both the humiliating years of Qingdao and the construction and development of Qingdao.
In 1891, the Qing government issued an edict to build it in Qingdao (then called Jiaoao). In 1892, the Qing government sent General Zhang Gaoyuan of Dengzhou to station in Qingdao with four battalions of officers and soldiers. In order to facilitate the transportation of military supplies for the troops, two docks were built, one of which is the current trestle, 200 meters long and 10 meters wide.
The pier had many original names, including Navy Pier, Qianhai Pier, Nanhai Pier, Li Hongzhang Pier, Grand Pier, etc. Another "Yamen Bridge" located in front of the General Military Office is 100 meters long and 6 meters wide. It is also known as the "Snail Bridge".
Both terminals were designed by Chinese engineers themselves and are the earliest terminals in Qingdao. The trestle was the only maritime "munitions supply line" at that time. In other words, whoever controlled the trestle would control Jiaozhou Bay.
In 1897, in the name of an exercise, the German army landed at Qingdao Bay, where the trestle was located, and occupied Qingdao by force. The trestle became a witness to the German invasion of Qingdao. After the German imperialists invaded Qingdao, in May 1901, the northern end of the original bridge was changed to a stone foundation and cement pavement. Wooden boards were laid on the steel bridge at the southern end, and light rails were built to extend the bridge body to 350 meters. It is still a military dock. .
After the completion of the first dock of Dagang in 1904, the pier gradually lost its historical mission as a dock and began to be opened to tourists. During World War I, after Japan landed at Yangkou of Laoshan Mountain and occupied Qingdao, it still held a military parade on this bridge to prove that it enjoyed "full sovereignty" over Qingdao.
In 1922, after Qingdao was taken back by the Chinese Beiyang Government, the Chinese navy held a military parade here. In 1931, the Nanjing National Government invested heavily in rebuilding the bridge, which was contracted by German firm Truly & Company, and the bridge was lengthened to 440 meters.
An arrow-shaped breakwater was built at the southern end of the bridge, and a national-style Huilan Pavilion was built on the breakwater. The entire project was completed in April 1933.
The trestle has since become the first sight in Qingdao. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the People's Government allocated funds for many times to repair the trestle. In 1985, Qingdao City carried out a large-scale comprehensive renovation of the trestle. It was surrounded by iron cable guardrails on both sides, 12 pairs of European-style bridge lights stood facing each other, and was paved with granite stones. steps.
From the end of 1998 to June 1999, the municipal government once again allocated funds for a large-scale renovation of the trestle. This maintenance not only met the requirements of preventing wind and waves, preventing corrosion, and maintaining the original charm, but also was consistent with the requirements of both sides. The bank protection facilities are matched, which increases the aesthetic effect and makes the entire bridge rejuvenated. In 2001, the seaside scenic area including the trestle was rated as one of the first batch of AAAA-level scenic spots by the National Tourism Administration.
Dear group members, we are now standing at the end of the trestle bridge. The water in front of us is called Qingdao Bay. Viewed from a distance, the trestle looks like a rainbow lying across the sea, and the "Huilan Pavilion" at the end seems to be floating on the sea. It is known as "Changhong leads far away" and "Fei Pavilion Huilan".
To appreciate the charm of the trestle, it is best to walk along this bridge leading to the sea. Walking in, you feel as if you are surrounded by the sea. You can fully feel the breath of the sea, experience the vastness of the sea, and enhance the three-dimensional feeling of the sea.
Blue waves lap at the bridge, white clouds float in the blue sky, seagulls fly between the sea and the sky, and cruise ships shuttle through the waves. This wonderful feeling can only be fully appreciated here and now. As we march, we can see the beautiful scenery of the shore covered by green trees and reflected in the towers. It is another picture of the city full of romantic European style, just as Mr. Kang Youwei described: "blue sea and blue sky, red tiles and green trees", Liang Shiqiu's "Look at the majestic waves and be the majesty of a king."
[Huilan Pavilion] Dear group members, now we have arrived at Huilan Pavilion. The three words on the plaque of "Huilan Pavilion" were originally inscribed by Shen Honglie, the former mayor of Qingdao. This plaque is in During Japan's second occupation of Qingdao, it was taken to Japan and put on display in the Army Museum in Tokyo, Japan, to show its "contributions" in the war of aggression against China. Now the three characters "Huilan Pavilion" were written by the famous calligrapher Shu Tong.
This pavilion is a two-story octagonal pavilion. The pavilion is covered with colored glazed tiles and supported by 24 red-painted pillars. There is a spiral staircase in the center of the pavilion. The upper floor is surrounded by glass windows, with "one window, one view, one view". "Scenery is a painting". We can look out the window and see the beautiful Qingdao Bay and various surrounding scenic spots and famous buildings in all directions.
[Attractions around the Zhanqiao] The road running in a straight north-south line with the Zhanqiao is Zhongshan Road. It is an old commercial street in Qingdao with a history of more than 100 years. After Germany occupied Qingdao, in order to build a deep-water dock in Houhai, a road connecting the north and the south was opened in 1899. This was the prototype of Zhongshan Road.
To the south of Dexian Road is a German residential area, named "Federi Street". To the north of Dexian Road is a Chinese residential area, called Dama Road. In 1922, the two roads merged Together, they were named Shandong Road. In 1929, in memory of Dr. Sun Yat-sen, it was renamed Zhongshan Road.
Zhongshan Road is more than 1,300 meters long, with 63 buildings and more than 160 shopping malls. It is also one of the 100 civilized demonstration sites designated by the state. At present, Zhongshan Road is also one of the most prosperous places in the old city.
In this way, the trestle has become the transition between the sea and the street. It closely connects the sea and land.
The tallest building on Zhongshan Road is the "Parkson Commercial Building". Opened in September 1998.
It is one of the first 18 joint venture retail enterprises in the country approved by the State Council. It is a joint venture between Qingdao First Department Store and Malaysia’s Golden Lion Group, with a total investment of 780 million yuan. It has 5 underground floors and above ground. 49 floors, with a construction area of ??120,000 square meters and a shopping mall area of ??50,000 square meters. At that time, it was called the first floor of Qilu Commercial Building. 2. Historical information and short stories about Qingdao’s Zhanqiao
Historical information: Qingdao’s Zhanqiao has a long history, and it has been a hundred years old. It can be said that Qingdao’s century-old rise and fall, honor and disgrace, and historical changes are all under her eyes.
She witnessed the development of Qingdao architecture. As early as a hundred years ago during the Qing government, Li Hongzhang, governor of Zhili and minister of Beiyang, accompanied by Zhang Yao, governor of Shandong, came to inspect Jiaoao at that time and returned to Beijing. Afterwards, he decisively proposed to the Qing government that the area around Qingdao Pass should be fortified. On June 14 of the same year, the cabinet issued an edict: "It is planned to build additional forts at the seaports of Jiaozhou and Yantai, please follow the instructions."
At the same time, it requested that the General Military Office of Dengzhou Town be established in Dengzhou (today's Penglai) moved to Qingdao. Later, Zhang Gaoyuan, the commander-in-chief of Dengzhou Town, built the commander-in-chief's Yamen at Qingdao Port, which was the origin of the establishment of Qingdao.
The Qingdao Zhanqiao was built in the 18th year of the reign of Emperor Guangxu of the Qing Dynasty (1892). In 1892, the Qing government sent Zhang Gaoyuan, the commander-in-chief of Dengzhou, to lead four battalions of officers and soldiers to station in Qingdao. In order to facilitate the transportation of military supplies for the troops, two trestles were built. There are piers, one of which is a pier. In the past, it was called Big Pier and Nanhai Zhanqiao. There were many names for it at that time.
However, this trestle played a particularly important role at that time, serving as a hub and center. Whoever could control the trestle would be equivalent to controlling the entire Jiaozhou Bay. At that time, Germany used the sergeant drill as an excuse to first control the trestle and then occupy Qingdao.
The trestle is the best witness to the German invasion. After Germany took control of Qingdao, the trestle was further renovated and still used for military purposes.
Later, after a larger pier was built, the main function of the trestle was not just a pier, but also began to be open to tourists. Later, after Japan occupied Qingdao, it also held a military parade on this bridge to prove its existence.
Later, when Qingdao was taken back by the Beiyang government, Chinese sailors also paraded here. Later, the Nanjing National Government funded the reconstruction of the trestle, which took more than two years. After the reconstruction, the trestle has become the most popular sight in Qingdao and continues to this day.
Later, after the founding of New China, the government also funded many times to repair the trestle bridge. In the 1980s, the government once again funded maintenance and installed iron chain guardrails and bridge lights on the bridge.
In the 1990s, major repairs were carried out. While maintaining the original style, bank protection measures were added to make the building more beautiful. After several reconstructions and reconstructions, the bridge is now 401.45 meters long, of which the approach bridge is 236.1 meters long and the hole bridge is 149.7 meters long.
The triangular bridge head at Huilan Pavilion is 15.65 meters long. The double-story octagonal pavilion with cornices at the southern end of the trestle - "Huilan Pavilion" is covered with yellow glazed tiles on the top and surrounded by 24 circular pavilion columns. The pavilion covers an area of ??151 square meters, with a total construction area of ??340 square meters. There are two pavilions in the pavilion. It is a circular pavilion with 34 spiral steps in the center. When you climb up to the tower, you can have a panoramic view of the front sea. It is one of the ten scenic spots in Qingdao, "Feige Huilan".
The story of Qingdao Zhanqiao: It is said that when Zhang Gaoyuan, the commander-in-chief of Dengzhou, led his troops to Qingdao, he had a hobby every morning. He took his attendants to watch the sea view and listen to the sound of waves at the beach. When he was in high spirits, he would also drive a small boat. Go fishing in deep water. One day, Zhang Gaoyuan was fishing in deep water. Suddenly a big wave came and the boat turned over. Zhang Gaoyuan and his attendants all fell into the water. Fortunately, the soldiers on the shore rescued them in time.
That night, Zhang Gaoyuan had a dream. He dreamed that when he was fishing in the sea, there was a red light flashing on the bow of the boat. 36 pairs of handsome fairies in red clothes and green skirts lined up in two lines facing each other. The deep water reaches all the way to the seaside rocks. Then, thirty-six pairs of fairy arms stretched out and held together, holding a wide and long green silk, building a silk bridge.
A fairy boy in green held one of his arms with one hand and held a shining golden parasol with the other. He took him to the silk bridge and helped him ashore with three bumps. After Zhang Gaoyuan woke up, he immediately asked his subordinates to invite a painter, embellished the scene in his dream, and asked the painter to draw a picture of the sea bridge.
After hearing this, the painter spent less than half a day painting the sea bridge. He changed the 36 pairs of fairies arranged in two rows into 36 pairs of log bridge piles arranged in two rows. The wide and long green silk was replaced with a bridge plate painted with green paint, and the 36 pairs of fairy necks and heads were replaced with 36 pairs of domed, waist-high, red-painted railings. After Zhang Gaoyuan saw the sea bridge map, he was very satisfied and immediately ordered people to work overtime day and night on the beach to build the bridge.

We can look out the window and see the beautiful Qingdao Bay and various surrounding attractions and famous buildings in all directions. The length of the trestle bridge has been increased from 350M to about 440M. The bridge deck is entirely paved with cement, and a drainage system is added to the bridge body.
Two rows of cast iron air holes with a distance of about 2 meters and a diameter of about 20 cm are added to the extension part. During spring tides, the waves of sea water hitting the bridge piers can go straight up to the bridge deck through the air holes. A semicircular breakwater was built at the southern end of the bridge. A traditional Chinese-style two-story octagonal pavilion with flying eaves was built inside the dike. The pavilion was named "Huilan Pavilion" and was covered with blue glazed tiles and surrounded by 24 circular columns.
The interior of the pavilion is a circular hall with 34 spiraling steps in the middle. Climbing to the second floor, you can see the red tiles and green trees of Qingdao market to the north, and the blue sea and blue sky of Jiaozhou Bay to the south. In 1936, among the "Ten Scenic Spots of Qingdao" jointly selected by the city and experts and citizens, Zhanqiao was the main one. The "Flying Pavilion Huilan" scene has become the first scene among them.
Since the completion of Huilan Pavilion, Qingdao Zhanqiao has been repaired many times, but its style has basically remained unchanged. "The misty water is vast and the moonlight is fascinating, and the fishing boats are parked in the west of the trestle at night. Every evening after dusk, people are leaning on the railings to take pictures of the embankment." This poem published in the "Qingdao Guide" in 1933 is a true portrayal of Qingdao's trestle.
Qingdao Zhanqiao was transformed from a military facility originally built for military purposes by the Qing army into an iconic Qingdao scenic spot. This "bridge" connecting the land and the sea has accompanied the vicissitudes of the island city for more than a hundred years, and also connects the city's past, present and future.

Zhanqiao is the symbol of Qingdao.
Visitors walking along the Zhanqiao seaside can see the crescent-shaped city outline of Qingdao. The Zhanqiao looks like a rainbow lying on the waves, and Huilan Pavilion shines brightly. This is the origin of the so-called "Chang Hong Yuan Yin" and "Fei Pavilion Hui Lan".
In the distance, the white lighthouse on Xiaoqingdao stands gracefully. On the east and north sides, red tiles and green trees complement each other, and various buildings are scattered on the promontory slopes.
On the west side, modern high-rise buildings rise from the ground close to the coast, magnificent and majestic. The breakwater along the coast is made of granite and is more than 10 meters above the water.
When the tide is high, the waves hit the shore, stirring up clusters of snow-white spray, attracting countless tourists to watch; after the tide recedes, the ocher-colored rocks and golden beaches emerge from the water, and the beaches are full of tourists rushing to collect shells from the sea. . Whenever the weather is calm, thousands of seagulls fly freely, making the beautiful Qingdao Bay full of vitality.
Walking on the trestle, you can take in the picturesque scenery of Qingdao Bay, with clusters of snow-white waves, dots of red rocks, red tiles and green trees dotted on the shore of the harbor, and flying pavilions sitting on the blue waves. Above, after hundreds of years of vicissitudes, it is finally full of vitality. 4. Historical information and short stories about Qingdao’s Zhanqiao

Baidu Encyclopedia-Qingdao Zhanqiao. 5. Information about the trestle
The trestle is the symbol of Qingdao. If tourists come to Qingdao without taking a look at the trestle, it means they have not come to Qingdao.
The trestle bridge is located at the southern end of Zhongshan Road, which is crowded with tourists. The bridge body stretches from the coast into the crescent-shaped depths of Qingdao Bay. At the end of the bridge, a Chinese national style double-cornered building with double eaves sits dignifiedly among the blue waves. It is particularly unique against the backdrop of many European-style buildings around the coast. The trestle is 440 meters long and 8 meters wide, with a steel-concrete structure. A semicircular breakwater is built at the southern end of the bridge. Inside the embankment is a national-style two-sided octagonal tower, named "Huilan Pavilion". Visitors stand next to the pavilion and enjoy the huge waves coming. "Fei Pavilion Huilan" is known as "Flying Pavilion Huilan Pavilion" One of the "Ten Scenic Spots of Qingdao". Along the north coast of the bridge, a "Zhanqiao Park" has been established, with sparse flowers and trees, green pines and green grass, and stone chairs for visitors to sit and enjoy the sea and sky scenery. There are lanterns standing on the west side of the bridge, which look like magnolias in full bloom at night.
The trestle can be said to be a building of the same age as Qingdao. At that time, Li Hongzhang, the imperial envoy of the Qing Dynasty, was going to Qingdao (called Jiaoao at the time) to inspect. According to Li Hongzhang's rank, he should take a large official ship, but Qingdao at that time It was just a small fishing village and did not have the ability to dock large official ships, so a temporary port was built. It was later renovated several times and has been in use ever since. This is the original form of the trestle. After liberation, a large deep-water port was built in Jiaozhou Bay (now the largest container terminal in Asia). The trestle lost its use value as a port. After several reconstructions, it became what it is now. The Huilan Pavilion at the head of the trestle is now It is a small exhibition hall that often holds some art, photography and other art exhibitions. The bridge is for tourists to visit and to dock tourist boats, from which you can see Qingdao on the sea.
The trestle is only 0.5 kilometers away from Qingdao Railway Station. It has convenient transportation and is connected to trams No. 2 and 5 and buses No. 6, 8, 25, and 26. 6. A 200-word essay describing the Qingdao Zhanqiao
Qingdao is a coastal city in China with a strong European style. This former German colonial city was once the main naval base of Germany in China.
Due to Qingdao’s superior geographical location, Qingdao was chosen as a naval base very early. In 1885, Qingyan established a naval office and sent people to Shandong, Hebei and other seaports for on-the-spot surveys, and chose good ports to establish naval bases. When Liu Hanfang passed Jiaozhou Bay, Xu Jingcheng, Qingyan's minister to Germany, and others proposed the construction of a naval base in Jiaozhou Bay.
In May 1891, after inspecting the Beiyang Navy, Beiyang Minister Li Hongzhang and Shandong Governor Zhang Yao went south to inspect Jiaozhou Bay. After on-site inspection, they felt deeply that Jiaozhou Bay was important in location, so they jointly reported to the court, suggesting that it be built here. Build forts and garrison fortifications. On June 14, Emperor Guangxu officially approved the fortification of Jiaozhou Bay. Later, Zhang Gaoyuan, the commander-in-chief of Dengzhou Town, led 4 battalions of more than 2,000 people to move to Jiao'ao. After Zhang Gaoyuan's troops stationed in Jiao'ao, they built forts, opened roads, built military camps, and constructed a large number of Qing troops' emigration and related facilities in Qianhai. Qingdao Port gradually prospered and formed a fortified coastal town.
In order to facilitate the transportation of supplies, Zhang Gaoyuan built a trestle in Qingdao. The trestle is 440 meters long and 8 meters wide. It is one of the landmarks of Qingdao. In the 1930s, the trestle was once known as the top ten scenic spots in Qingdao. The trestle was originally a pier. At that time, two piers were built in Japan. The pier originally had many names, including Navy Pier, Qianhai Pier, Nanhai Pier, Li Hongzhang Pier, Grand Pier, etc. It is 200 meters long and 10 meters wide. Another "Yamen Bridge" located in front of the General Military Office is 100 meters long and 6 meters wide. It is also known as the "Snail Bridge". Both terminals were designed by Chinese engineers themselves and were the earliest terminal construction in Qingdao Port. The trestle was the only maritime "munitions supply line" at that time. In other words, whoever controlled the trestle would control Jiaozhou Bay. 7. A 200-word essay describing the Qingdao Zhanqiao
