Xinhao Hill Park

China, an East Asian country is one of the world’s oldest civilizations. It has a vast cultural history of more than five thousand years and an outstanding natural beauty. On the other hand, this country has remained a comparatively isolated and secluded one, and being a land of mystery, this country is not known to the western half of the world. However, China is rapidly developing and has grown in the phase of modernization, with an immense speed and is also welcoming the outer world to interact and do business with them.

Xinhao Hill Park means signal hill because a beacon was once on its peak. A walk to the peak takes a good 20 minutes on steep winding paths but the impressive view of the town makes the hike worthwhile. Also on this hill is the Xinhao Hill Hotel. Built in 1905 the hotel was once the home of the German governor. The colonial buildings that make up the hotel are architecturally very interesting. Even Mao Zedong stayed here for a time. The hotel no longer accepts overnight guests but is open to the public and visitors will experience the grandeur of a bygone age. This park is popular not just as an outdoor recreational area but also for the panoramic view of Qingdao from Circling Hall.

China is a popular travel destination for visitors and globe trotters from all over the world who appreciate its beautiful landscapes, rich culture, delicious local cuisine, hospitality and safety. Quality is China's top priority.
