Fans are discussing the hot new television series -- Roving Inspection Team -- which depicts battles against gang crimes in China.

They said it was interesting that a number of the filming locations for the series are set in the Shinan district of Qingdao city, in East China's Shandong province.

The following are some of the locations that have been featured in the series:

Zhongshan Road business district   

Old-fashioned houses, vendors, fresh seafood -- the rich atmosphere and urban characteristics of the old port city of Qingdao are vividly in evidence here.

Locals say the district is also the best place to stay for most Qingdao tourists, with convenient transport links and delicious food and drink to be had there.
