Perspective
Huangdao District is the earliest key area of Qingdao's opening-up to the outside world. In 1985, the Qingdao Economic and Technological Development Zone was built in Huangdao District. In 1992, with the approval of the Shandong Provincial Party Committee and Government, the total area of Qingdao Economic and Technological Development Zone and Huangdao District was expanded to 217.33 square kilometers after the integration of the two district systems. In 2004, the original renovation system of Hongshiya Town in Jiaonan City was transferred to Huangdao District, and the area was further expanded to 274.1 square kilometers. Huangdao is divided into 12 subdistricts and 10 more rural towns; the latter half of the current subdistricts and all towns were ceded from Jiaonan City.[5][6]
