A Travel Photo Studio Hidden in a Century-Old Liyuan Courtyard in Dabao Island Lanxi Photo Studio is located in Anjuli (安居里), a century-old Liyuan courtyard in Qingdao’s Dabao Island Historic and Cultural District. With the old-town architecture, traditional Liyuan courtyards and charming streets of Dabao Island as its backdrop, the studio specializes in qipao photography, Republic of China–style portraits, and city street photography. More than just a photo shoot, the experience invites visitors to dress in a qipao, walk through Qingdao’s historic streets and capture their own special “Dabao Island moment.” The studio offers a private Liyuan courtyard for indoor and outdoor shooting, as well as photo sessions around the Dabao Island neighborhood. Professional photography, makeup, hairstyling and outfit coordination make the experience easy and enjoyable, even for first-time visitors to Qingdao or those wearing a qipao for the first time.
