The Qingdao TV Tower rises 232 meters above Taiping Hill, featuring an observation deck and revolving restaurant with views across the city and sea.

Construction of the tower began in 1993 under architect Ma Renle's direction, requiring 1400 tons of steel and 960 workers before its completion in 1996.

The tower serves as a central telecommunications hub for Qingdao, broadcasting 11 radio and television programs while standing as a symbol of modern engineering.
