Ba Da Guan () is a historical mansion area located near the coastline in the city of Qingdao, Shandong, China. Ba Da Guan is made up of streets named after great military forts of the ancient times. It was originally a residential area for the Germans built when Qingdao was a German protectorate (1897-1914). Each street is lined with a single species of tree and many street names are colloquially known by the trees that line them.〔("China Connection Tours")〕 Along the streets are houses built in a variety of European architectural styles. Ba Da Guan is bordered on the west by No. 1 Beach and on the east by No. 3 Beach. Ba Da Guan is a popular destination for wedding photography. One can often see dozens of newlywed-couples being photographed along Ba Da Guan's shoreline and greenspace. Next to Ba Da Guan, on the south end of No. 2 Beach, is a large rocky outcropping on which a stone Russian villa was constructed. Built in 1932, Huashi Lou (花石楼) combines Greek, Gothic, and Gothic influences throughout its five storey hulk. It is constructed from marble and stone and features a large turret and a multicolored outer face which inspired the locals' nickname for the structure, "the colorful rock building".〔("China Holidays")〕 It also contains a passageway which Chiang Kai-shek used to get from the building to the seashore. ==The streets of Ba Da Guan== These streets run north-south: *Zijingguan Road (紫荆关路) *Ningwuguan Road (宁武关路) *Shaoguan Road (韶关路) These streets run east-west: *Wushengguan Road (武胜关路) *Jiayuguan Road (嘉峪关路) *Hanguguan Road (函谷关路) *Zhengyangguan Road (正阳关路) *Linhuaiguan Road (临淮关路) *Juyongguan Road (居庸关路) *Shanhaiguan Road (山海关路) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ba Da Guan」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
