On the azure coastline of Qingdao West Coast New Area, the "1314" dam and the Xingyuan lighthouse swiftly emerged as sought-after cultural and tourism landmarks, which draw in citizens and tourists for a memorable visit.
This 1,314-meter-long coastal promenade intertwines the themes of love and coastal charm, using the homophonic sound of "forever and ever". Over 200 residents, students, families, and volunteers from both local and international backgrounds joined hands in the artistic creation of the promenade. They painted graffiti walls and infused elements of childhood nostalgia into the promenade's intricate details.

At the promenade's culmination, the Xingyuan lighthouse stands as a radiant gem nestled along the coastline. Harmonizing with the "art corridor" brimming with well-wishes, the lighthouse embellishes the entire promenade with a dazzling finale.
Gazing back from beneath the lighthouse, the coastal promenade feels akin to a mystical time-travel tunnel. A tunnel that commences with whimsical graffiti evoking childhood innocence, transitions through tender imprints of love, and culminates with the beacon of hope illuminating the path to the future.
