Tsingtao Brewery

The Tsingtao Brewery is one of China's most famous beer brands and offers visitors an insight into the brewing process and the city's German heritage. The brewery museum showcases the history of beer production in Qingdao, which began during the German colonial period in the early 20th century.

Founded in 1903 by German settlers, Tsingtao Brewery was one of the first modern breweries in China. The brewery used traditional German brewing methods and local spring water to create its distinctive taste. Today, Tsingtao is one of China's most popular beer brands and is exported worldwide.
