hill
The mountains in Qingdao have their own taste, style and characteristics. For example, Laoshan Mountain is famous for its "hard work" in mountaineering, and the mountains are connected, so it was called "Laoshan Mountain" more than two thousand years ago. Again, Fushan. When people sail on the sea and overlook the mountains in their hometown, the most emotional thing is the floating mountain. Because from a distance, the nine hills of Fushan line up like a green barrier, floating on the sea, so it is called "Fushan". In addition, there are Shuilian Mountain, Guanxiangshan, Guan Hai, Shuang Shan, Danshan and Beiling, etc. People can guess it by its name.
Most of the mountains in Qingdao are granite, and the trees are abrupt, towering and dense, which is very suitable for living. In other words, such a living environment is rare in the whole country.
Judging from the history of Qingdao's urban development, Huishan and Qingdao Mountain are the earliest inhabited mountains in the city. Huishan was the name of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and now it is called Taiping Mountain. It is named because it faces the Pacific Ocean outside the Yellow Sea. Among these two mountains, there are two primitive villages, one is Qianhui Village and the other is Qingdao Village. Before the meeting, the village site is now East Park of Zhongshan Park, and the village site of Qingdao is now Yingbin Hotel, Qingdao Road, Jiangsu Road and Changzhou Road. By the beginning of last century, there were about 1000 villagers in these two villages, who were the aborigines of Qingdao.
The first batch of Qingdao people made a living by fishing at sea. Jiaozhou Bay, Qingdao Bay, Huiquan Bay and Fushan Bay are all the earliest fishing grounds in Qingdao, and they are also places where fishermen repair boats and nets. Later, Qingdao people began to grow crops in the mountains, such as wheat, cotton, soybeans and peanuts.
The earliest house of Qingdao people was also a "stone house". The roof was covered with seaweed and wheat straw, and the walls were all granite. Of course, there are also simple semi-crypt houses called crypts. 1when the Germans invaded Qingdao in the winter of 897. Almost all the traditional houses of China in Qingdao have been demolished, leaving only two landmark buildings, namely "Old Yamen" and "Tianhou Palace". Followed by a piece of European-style villa houses, all over the mountains. As a result, Qingdao has a unique "original city color" that combines "green hills" with "red tiles".
Mountain wonders
Most buildings in Qingdao are built by mountains, and their building volume changes with the ups and downs of the mountains, becoming exquisite "decorations" of the mountains. This is different from other cities in China, and there are few houses facing north and south. Because Qingdao is located in the cape and there are many hills, it is obviously a basic design principle of urban planning to build on the mountain. Of course, this design principle will also be reflected in the details of some classic buildings. In fact, what is even more amazing is that these urban architectural design principles also include some factors such as meteorology, oceans, rivers and earthquakes.
Therefore, if we look carefully, it is not difficult to find that the main facade of Qingdao's buildings is basically facing southeast, while the gables and eaves in the northeast or northwest are relatively high. Because Qingdao has two main wind directions every year: southeast wind and northwest wind. The southeast wind not only brought a cool maritime climate to Qingdao, but also brought a lot of rain. So Qingdao is also famous for its humid summer. The northwest wind brings dry and cold inland and snow, but the snow on the north facade of the building will be greatly weakened by the gradual occlusion of many mountains. Based on this condition, the tile slope of Qingdao architecture is smaller than that of European architecture at the same latitude. Moreover, the windows on the north side of many old houses are smaller than those on the south side, and spiral stairs are mostly located on the north side. In the south, there are not only big windows, but also internal and external corridors and balconies. What's more, there are tiger windows and unique wooden frames, which not only achieve the effect of ventilation, but also absorb a lot of heat from the sun through the wooden frame, increasing the humanistic color.
Therefore, the mountains in Qingdao are a kind of urban resources and a natural vein of the beautiful outline of the city.
sea
The sea in Qingdao is affectionate, romantic, charming, vast and not dull, which makes people think deeply and linger. This is because the sea in Qingdao is closer to the city, more natural, friendlier and richer.
For Qingdao people, the sea is not only a kind of dependence and yearning for the city, but also a "blank space" in urban space. It is full of mysterious colors every day, and the rhythm and breathing of the city are accompanied by the sound of paddles and light and shadow every day.
Sea is the primary color and advertising color of Qingdao, an ancient and modern city, and it is also the favorite color of Qingdao people. For example, in the trademarks of all famous enterprises in Qingdao, almost all have the movement and color of the sea. Like Haier and Hisense, the word "sea" is not only in the corporate trademark, but also in the corporate name. Another example is Tsingtao Beer and Aucma. They not only "combined" hops and waves, but also "combined" the development prospects of large-scale backbone enterprises in Ocean and Qingdao. Therefore, we have to say that the sea in Qingdao not only has natural colors, but also can often feel a kind of grandeur and boldness. Qingdao Sea, the blue sound of spring, the love of summer, the interest of autumn and the dream of winter.

city
For example, the mountains in Qingdao are ancient history, then the sea in Qingdao is ancient history, and the city in Qingdao is modern history.
That's true. The mountains in Qingdao hold up ancient human stories and myths and legends. For example, in the Han Dynasty, the story of children raising tigers on Tiger Mountain, the legend of Qin Shihuang's visit to Laoshan Mountain, the famous poem "To the Enlightenment of Wu Wangshan" left by Li Bai, and the story of Zhang Sanfeng and Qiu Chuji practicing in Laoshan Mountain. Of course, we can't forget Pu Songling's timeless stories, namely, Laoshan Taoist and Yu Xiang. On the hills of the old city, you can also find historical sites such as bonfire piers built in the early Ming Dynasty.
As a modern city, Qingdao has been only a "century-old Qingdao" since the German occupation period of 1897. The pattern of this Qingdao city is different from before, that is, the mountains and the sea are taken as the reference system of the city, and the city is built between mountains and seas, enjoying the charm of mountains and seas endowed by nature and absorbing the blue light and the color of the sea. Thus, after a hundred years of baptism and construction, a coastal city rose from the sea and stood on the top of the mountain, becoming the oriental gateway of the motherland.
City of Europe
Qingdao has always been known as the city of "Oriental Switzerland" and "World Architecture Expo". Its urban quality is also summarized as "red tiles and green trees, blue sea and green mountains". In other words, Qingdao is very quiet and small in Switzerland, with various typical buildings. The large red tile roof in the city refers to the scale and style of the building; Tree-lined streets form the depth of peaks and bends; As the two "dynamic backgrounds" of the city, the blue sea and green hills are presented to the world. So all the tourists who have been to Qingdao lament that the mountains and seas here are natural. In fact, this is the beauty and charm of Qingdao, and it is also a European style.
Some people say that the most beautiful place in Qingdao is that the buildings in its city are closely attached to the sea, and the roads continue to extend with the bending of the sea. Others say that the mountains of Qingdao embrace the city and the sea in their arms, with red tiles and blue sea. Both of these statements make sense. In fact, the city of Qingdao is an organic combination and filling of mountains and seas. Without this magnificent city scenery, green mountains and blue seas will lack spirituality.
Urban language
Qingdao has various "urban languages". For example, the historical buildings in Qingdao are mostly two or three stories; There are many large public buildings and single courtyard buildings; Mountain flowers, walls, porches, balconies and tiger windows have different styles; Some landscape buildings, or the central buildings of streets, have many semicircular corners and towers; There are many trees, public green spaces, gardens and ancient buildings in the center of the street. Because the mountain is connected with the road, there are many stone steps between the road and the road, and there are many branches and trees beside the main road. These are the "special languages" of a city, telling the history and present of the city all the time.
Among these "urban languages", we can't ignore the unique "language effect" brought by natural landscape to our city. For example, Qingdao has many bays, headlands, beaches, islands and docks; Then there are many hills, many parks and many paths up the mountain.
Once upon a time, if there was no seafood on the table of Qingdao people, it would be an unimaginable regret. So Qingdao people have a lot of seafood on their dining tables. There are many colors and beautiful women in Qingdao. With so many creative "urban languages", Qingdao has a distinctive "urban personality" and a colorful "urban expression". We say that as a modern international city, Qingdao is beautiful, open and rich.
