各位朋友:早上好，欢迎您来到青岛旅游。我是大家这次青岛之行的导游。如果您有什么问题或者要求的话，请告诉我。我会尽最大的努力使您有一个舒适愉快的旅程。现在，我先简单地给大家介绍一下青岛的情况。

青岛市地处山东半岛南部，它的特点是独一无二的大海、山脉及舒适气候的融合。全市海岸线(含所属海岛岸线)总长为862.64千米，其中大陆岸线730.64千米，占山东省海岸线的1/4。海岸线曲折，岬湾相间。

青岛包含七区五市，全市总面积为10654平方千米，人口为731.12万。市区面积为1102平方千米，人口258.4万。

青岛地处北温带季风区域，属温带季风气候。市区由于海洋环境的直接调节，受来自洋面上的东南季风及海流、水团的影响，故又具有显著的海洋性气候特点。空气湿润，雨量充沛，温度适中，四季分明。春季气温回升缓慢，较内陆迟1个月;夏季湿热多雨，但无酷暑;秋季天高气爽，降水少，蒸发强;冬季风大温低，持续时间较长。

青岛是一座历史文化名城，中国道教的发祥地之一。6000年以前这里已有了人类的生存和繁衍。东周时期建立了当时山东地区第二大市镇--即墨。秦始皇统一中国后，曾三次登临现位于青岛胶南市的琅琊台。秦代徐福曾率船队由琅琊台起航东渡朝鲜、日本。汉武帝刘彻曾在现位于青岛市城阳区的不其山“祀神人于交门宫”，并在胶州湾畔女姑山祭天拜祖设立明堂9所。清朝末年，青岛已发展成为一个繁华市镇，昔称胶澳。1891年6月14日，清政府在胶澳设防，是为青岛建置的开始。1897年11月，德国以“巨野教案”为借口派兵强占青岛。1914年第一次世界大战爆发，11月，日本侵占青岛，取代德国对青岛进行军事殖民统治。1919年，中国近代史上著名的“五四运动”便是以“收回青岛”为起因。1922年12月10日，中国收回青岛，设立胶澳商埠督办公署，直属北洋政府。1929年7月，设青岛特别市。1930年，改称青岛市。1938年1月，日本再次侵占青岛。1945年9月，国民党政府接收青岛，仍为特别市。1949年6月2日，青岛解放。1986年青岛市在国家计划中实行单列，赋予相当省一级经济管理权限。1994年被列为全国15个副省级城市之一。

青岛是一座十分美丽的旅游城市，拥有优美的风景和宜人的气候。早在1920年，青岛就已经是著名的旅游胜地了。曲折的海岸，巍峨的群山，欧式的红顶房和绿色的树木使这座城市变得独一无二。历史景区和不断完善的现代化设置更增添了青岛的魅力。青岛是集观光、度假、商务和展览于一体的现代化城市。

青岛市区，西部为“红瓦绿树，碧海蓝天”的老风貌保护区，东部为现代化建筑风貌区，新、老两区相融相映，形成了“海上都市、欧亚风情”的城市形象。漫步在海边，游客能够欣赏到城市美丽的海景。从西到东，整个风景区可以分为以下四个各具特色的部分。

欧亚风情区:这一区域包含了很多自然和文化交相辉映的景点。这个有着一个世纪历史的老城是东西方文化相结合的产物。外国风情的别墅和优美的海滩形成了一个独一无二的欧亚文化区域。这里包含了超过20个国家的西式建筑风格。典型的有前德国统治者的居住楼和办公楼，天主教教会，马丁·路德教堂，八大关别墅区等。这些地区一年到头都有很多新婚夫妇、摄影者和游客参观游览。

东部的旅游景区有东海路、香港路、澳门路、文化名人雕塑园、五四广场和音乐广场等，洋溢着浓郁的现代气息。

石老人国家旅游度假区有独一无二的观光别墅、饭店，优良的海滩和许多文化、运动设施，如弄海园、海上乐园、国际啤酒城、国际美食娱乐城、国际高尔夫球场、环字国际城、体育中心、海洋公园、浮山公园、现代艺术中心等，都是游客不可错过的地方。所有这些将随着度假、娱乐、展览和运动竞赛的便利条件使青岛成为一个全面发展的观光旅游地。

崂山国家风景区位于青岛市区东部黄海之滨，主峰海拔1133米。崂山以中国沿海第一宗教山脉和道教的发源地而闻名于世。崂山被国务院命名为国家旅游风景区，由9个风景游览区、5个风景恢复区和周围一些风景区组成，是国家4A级旅游示范区。崂山气候湿润。是道家的重要传播之地，被誉为“道教全真天下第二丛林”。山中奇形怪状的岩石很像各种各样的生物，所以崂山以自然雕塑公园而闻名。古老的树木，罕见的植物和丰富的自然资源，特别是矿泉水和水下的玉石已经使崂山远近闻名。

青岛市郊也有大量自然景观和风景胜地。在著名的琅琊台旅游胜地，越王勾践会见大臣和王子的遗迹均有所保存。这里也是秦始皇三次游历的地方;徐福东渡到日本也是在这里始行的。田横岛是一个具有历史意义的岛屿，早在两千多年前就曾经发生过惊天动地的故事:秦末汉初，齐王田横属下的五百壮士，宁死不降刘邦，为赴大义，集体自刎于岛上。平度天柱山的摩崖刻石，为稀有的书法石刻艺术瑰宝。这里还有马山国家级自然保护区、修建于春秋(公元前770～前476年)时的齐长城遗迹等景点。

我的介绍到此就结束了，谢谢您的合作，我希望我的介绍能够给大家带来收获和乐趣。祝您一路平安，身体健康。
