east shore of Jiaozhou Bay,
From the north of Dagang to the coastline of Shuangbu
The long and narrow area of the area,
People are used to calling it Houhai.

"Listen to the waves and watch the mountain scenery in the front sea, fish and dig clams in the back sea", the old Qingdao people once vividly said the natural "gap" between the front sea and the back sea.
With the evolution of urban construction, people's impression of Houhai has changed. In recent years, the cruise port area, Happy Coastal City, Qingdao North Railway Station and its surroundings, Loushan area, the north bank of Baisha River and other important sectors around Jiaozhou Bay have been renovated at an accelerated pace, and a new field for the development of Houhai is being reconstructed.

Among them, Happy Coastal City is undoubtedly one of the key nodes.
Back in the 80s of the 20th century, due to the shortage of urban construction land in the old urban area, how to use Houhai was put on the agenda. With the construction of the Qinghuang Highway and the environmental improvement along the east coast of Jiaozhou Bay, after more than 10 years of development and transformation, the former barren tidal flats and sea areas have been transformed into a new coastal city.
In the new century, the plan to build a new coastal leisure resort area based on coastal resources has gradually taken shape. In 2009, the construction of Happy Coastal City began, and real estate and educational resources began to pour in.
After a period of calm, with the three-year campaign of urban renewal and urban construction, Happy Coastal City ushered in a new life. The relocation of old enterprises has released huge space and opportunities, and the upsurge of commercial, industrial and other resources has been surging, and a diversified ecological new city integrating business office, leisure tourism and residential life has begun to show its grace.

New economic growth poles are emerging here - Binhai International Center, Artificial Intelligence Industry Cluster, Sam's Qingdao Club Store and other major projects have been implemented, roaring machines continue to accumulate strength, the pace of industrial aggregation and science and technology leadership is accelerating, and regional development is gradually showing a new outline.

The atmosphere of urban bay life here is becoming more and more intense - flower blocks, slow greenways, and the landscape style of "port-city integration, Houhai rebirth" extends along the coastline, reshaping the coastal space. Cultural and tourism complexes such as cultural and sports centers and marine activity centers have sprung up, bringing together catering, entertainment and commerce, leading people to open up a new way of life.
With that came a sea change in the city's interface. The modern buildings written by the great masters are lined up one after another, delineating the unique skyline of Houhai; The accelerated completion of the transportation network extends in all directions, completely subverting the inherent impression of citizens on this area.
undoubtedly
Houhai moving forward,
It will set up a "new cover" for the future city.
