Shen Mingshu, a senior living in Shinan district, Qingdao, and his granddaughter were recently invited to participate in a live stream by local media at Taipingjiao to discuss the variety of cultures present in the area.
They first visited the Imperial Shield Preschool and learned English songs and British culture from a foreign teacher.
Next they visited the Qingdao Monet Garden, a French villa in Taipingjiao, and tasted the unique afternoon tea there.
After that, they visited the Guo Moruo Book Bar and Shen introduced its cultural and historical background in detail. The book bar is famous in Taipingjiao and several art exhibitions and salons have been held in it.
They then experienced Dutch culture at a coffee shop featuring paintings by Vincent van Gogh and learned about molecular cuisine in a courtyard themed around romantic stories.
