Things to do in Anqiu

There were many tourists and kites, and the hillsides were covered with flowers, creating a lively and joyful atmosphere. However, the visitor center was hard to find, we were tired from carrying our luggage, and the park signage was not very clear and needs improvement.

Spring has arrived, and Fangzi Town is bursting with new life. Located in Fangzi District, Weifang, Shandong Province, it is a cluster of modern German and Japanese-style buildings. Relying on the Fangzi Station of the Jiaoji Railway, it preserves historical buildings, industrial heritage, and military facilities from the German and Japanese periods. Now protected and developed, the town has become a distinctive scenic area integrating historical culture, artistic creativity, and tourism, presenting a unique blend of Chinese and Western architectural styles. It is open year-round and free of charge.

Hidden deep in the alleys of Weifang's old city, Shihu Garden is a rare private garden in northern China with the charm of Jiangnan. Spanning only about ten acres, pavilions, terraces, rockeries, and ponds are scattered along the terrain, unfolding in a charmingly haphazard fashion.

Weifang Anqiu Qingyunshan Folk Amusement Park is one of the first national AAAA-level tourist attractions. It is located 30 kilometers south of Weifang City, the international kite capital. It is a large-scale comprehensive tourist attraction that highlights folk cultural characteristics and integrates sightseeing, leisure, entertainment, vacation and shopping. Qingyunshan Folk Amusement Park covers an area of ​​5,000 acres. The park has a pleasant climate and rich vegetation. It blooms in three seasons and is evergreen all year round. Relying on the natural landscape of Qingyun Mountain, the amusement park has six functional areas: Jiangnan Beauty, Ethnic Customs, Wild Animals, Leisure and Entertainment, Qilu Folk Customs and Peach Blossom Spring.

The kite museum showcases the history of kites and various types of kites, including those from abroad, combining knowledge and interest, making it suitable for all kinds of people to appreciate.

Mount Tai, the most revered of the Five Sacred Mountains, is a must-see. Remember to bring a five-yuan ticket to check it off your list. The natural grandeur and millennia-old cultural heritage blend seamlessly. The winding stone steps are dotted with cliff carvings, and the Eighteen Bends offer a challenging and treacherous experience. Only by reaching the summit of Jade Emperor Peak can you truly appreciate the awe-inspiring feeling of "Ascending to the highest peak, all mountains appear small." For sunrise and sea of ​​clouds views, consider a night climb; be prepared for the wind at the summit. If your stamina is average, you can take a bus and cable car from Tianwai Village, choosing your route flexibly. Although the climb is arduous, the expansive feeling at the summit makes all the fatigue worthwhile. Everyone should climb Mount Tai at least once in their life.

Ou Garden is located in the heart of Qingzhou Ancient City, not far from the Catholic Church. This visit was at night, so there were fewer tourists. The exhibits and garden design were decent, but I was amazed that the garden's area was comparable to, or even surpassed, that of any famous garden.

เป็นประสบการณ์ที่ดีที่ได้เข้าไปเยี่ยมชม เดินง่ายมีลูกศรบอกตลอดเส้นทาง วันธรรมดาคนไม่เยอะเดินชมถ่ายรูปชิลๆ มีพื้นที่กว้างขวาง

It was a great experience! The ascent was leisurely ⛰️, and the descent was scenic via cable car! The cable car was safe 🚠 and very convenient, perfect for those who don't enjoy hiking but still want to appreciate the mountain views 👫. We met many people along the way, including those from other cities and tourists from nearby Shandong! In short, the trip to Laoshan was well worth it!

The First Spring Under Heaven, a garden brimming with the charm of springs. Three clear springs gush forth from the earth, their waters surging like wheels, their sound like distant thunder, ceaseless year after year. Within the garden, springs are scattered like stars, the Golden Thread Spring and the Jade Washing Spring each possessing their own unique beauty; ancient pavilions and terraces, weeping willows surrounding the ponds, and inscriptions on steles that have left their mark. Here, one can find the poetic beauty of Li Qingzhao, and the poems of literati throughout the ages. A pool of clear water, blending landscape and literary tradition, allows one to stroll leisurely, the clear springs cleansing the soul, and the scene filled with tranquility—truly the soul of the Spring City.
