Located at No 17 Longshan Road – in the Shinan district of Qingdao in East China's Shandong province – the hill at Xinhaoshan Park , formerly known as Big Rock Hill, was later named Xinhao or Signal Hill after the construction of a signal tower to order ships in and out of the port in Qingdao.  

Xinhao Hill isn't too high – at 98 meters – but it has lush trees and from it you can view stunning sunsets.
