Qingdao, China, home to the Tsingtao brewery, is also where the 2008 Olympic sailing events will take place.

In this short intro to Qingdao, we visit a beach full of shell collectors, a park with Japanese cherry blossoms, and streets with German-style architecture. Then we hike up one of Qingdao's numerous hills to the former German radio tower that's shaped like giant bubbles.
