Beside the entrance to Little Qingdao lighthouse, this museum’s main attractions are the rusty submarine and destroyer anchored in the harbour, for which you need to buy the ¥100 ticket. The ¥30 ticket will get you into the complex, allowing to see all the other boats and naval equipment on show, as well as displays on Chinese naval history.
