Qingdao Municipal Museum

Qingdao


This massive collection of relics anchors the budding cultural zone in Lao Shan district. It has the usual broad span of exhibits expected in a big-city museum, ranging from the prehistoric to the industrial age. Collections of folk-art woodcuts and intriguing coins pressed with Kyrgyz script stand out. From Miaoling Rd metro station, walk south down Shenzhen Lu and take the first left.
