Qingdao's Golden Beach basks in name-befitting sunset

Golden Beach in Qingdao West Coast New Area took on a warm autumn glow recently as the setting sun painted the sea and sky in shades of gold and orange.

Sunlight shimmered across the water and wet sand, while visitors strolled along the shoreline, took photos and stopped to enjoy the view.

With the advent of cooler temperatures and softer evening light, autumn lends a quieter charm to Qingdao's coast. At Golden Beach, the sea, sand and sunset come together to form a serene seasonal scene.
