Protestant Church (Jidu Jiaotang)

The Protestant Church (Jidu Jiaotang) in Qingdao stands as a significant landmark reflecting the city’s colonial past. Originally built during the German concession period, the church showcases distinct German architectural styles. While the exterior is visually appealing, the interior is described as relatively simple. Visitors can climb the bell tower for views of the surrounding neighborhood and observe the functioning clock mechanism. As with many religious sites in China, the church is state-owned and operates with paid admission. It is a popular location for wedding photography.
