In Qingdao, Shandong Province, the summer tides bring more than just ocean waves – they deliver a serene, living artwork. As the tide rises, clusters of branched string lettuce drift gently with the currents like emerald streamers. When the tide ebbs, they linger on the mudflats, merging with the silhouettes of trees and ripples in the sand to form a natural tableau. This seasonal spectacle has become a symbolic expression of ecological harmony.
