The whole mountain is planned to be four scenic spots in spring, summer, autumn and winter, and a climbing viewing area.

At the beginning of the 20th century, the German army built a fort on this mountain, which is called Bismarck mountain.

In the planning and design of the park, the characteristics of Qingdao mountain are used to set up four scenic spots in spring, summer, autumn and winter, and the peak climbing area. On the southeast side of the mountain, a "yirande" viewing Pavilion is built; on the four sides of the mountain, four groups of landscape walls are built, namely, "Zhichun", "cuibo", "lanqu" and "Meiyou"; on the north side of the mountain, a "Snow Mountain" is built, with children's amusement facilities.
