6. St Michael's Catholic Church

St Michael's Catholic Church sits at Zhejiang Road, on top of a steep hill in Qingdao's old urban area. With an area of 2,470 square meters, it is the biggest gothic building in the city of Qingdao.

The bell tower of the church is 55 meters high and it has been the city's highest building for a long time. The windows of the church are covered by colorful glass patterns depicting stories from the Bible. The roofs and interior columns are painted yellow and white while the traceries and architraves are painted gold. The gorgeous church has been a popular place for young Catholic couples to hold weddings.
