- Take a look at the official English website of the Qingdao Government. Visitors will find a lot of helpful information and news, particularly concerning government affairs. However, the Chinese version is more useful as it includes more practical information.
- A great site with tons of information covering news, classifieds, property for rent/sale, online shopping, flea markets, tourism, active forums, and much more... Unfortunately, the site is in Chinese.
- This well-designed, cool 3D map site allows you to track any corner in the city simulating the real blocks and constructions. A downloadable version is also available, which makes offline searching possible. They provide maps of a few other Chinese cities along with Qingdao.
- This website is the extension of a popular food program from Qingdao TV’s Channel QTV-2. The site introduces visitors to plenty of local foods and restaurants. Comments and recommendations from common gourmands are worth reading, though some are just rants.
