I'm on a big trip in China and meet up with Ring for a really cool explore.
Ring: / ring7ring
Our mission is to explore an abandoned international airport which closed in 2021. I already failed getting inside with Charles because there was too much security.
In the very early morning I manage to get inside with Ring, not knowing what awaits us... A thrilling adventure.

Yeah I hope to see part 2 also yeah I wonder what the fine would have been being getting caught in that
why u keep saying hmph. its annoying man.
You were not joking about the upcoming content. Amazing footage and thank you for taking the huge risk for all of us, much respect to you Bob!
It only will get better :) Just hope I have enough time to edit since I'm working on my new book day and night now :O
Respect for breaking the law and tresspassing ?!?
What kind of idiot are you ?
@@ExploringtheUnbeatenPath Would have thought they would have kept the old airport operational as a secondary, more regional hub, maybe for low cost airlines
Consequences of getting caught in a place like China is on a whole new level... respect
Hard to say to be honest. They wouldn't be happy on by example the USA too!
@@ExploringtheUnbeatenPath But in the USA you will at least be assured of fair trial... I guess that you Bob, would simply be extradited and get a lifelong ban to travel to China. But for Ring, no clue how that story would end....

I have been watching you guys for a long time now and I admire all of you, with your determination, effort and time you devote to the abandoned places. It truly is unbelievable that there are so many places either just left empty or abandoned never to see many humans again. The airports must be one of the most interesting, once hustle and bustle of planes arrivals and departures. Now just left. In this video seemed very strange that they were cleaning it with lots of cleaning staff??? Well done as usual
Thanks David! I hope to document this one or another one in the near future and hope I have better luck that time :) Many more epic places coming up in the next months ;)
@@ExploringtheUnbeatenPath very interesting stuff. There are a group of young guys here in the U.K. who do a similar thing to you. I often wonder how the places are found as many people would just not know about them.
I know that there are quite a few abandoned villages in Spain with just no people in them so surreal.
@@ExploringtheUnbeatenPath We are regular passengers at Alicante airport, the old terminal has just been left frozen in time for at least 5 years now, would make a good explore
@@richardmcdonell1108 Good to know Richard, will mark it on my map. Thanks for the tip :)
I live right by Qingdao, and there is a military airport nearby. Although I’m not sure if that military airport is operational, this is probably one of the reasons for such tight security measures. Very cool adventure, thank you for sharing.
Thanks for checking out! I will return to Qingdao one day for more explorations :)
Looks like something they would of been really proud of. Very cool designed airport. Very futuristic and well maintained considering when it was built.
Yes, very nice design.. unfortunately it had a short life!
The new one is even more stunning.
In case you wonder why the city built an international airport to be shutdown less than 40 years later. The Liuting airport wasn't open in 1982 but in 1944. It was built by the Japanese Army during WW2. Commerical operation started in 1982.
Because there is no vacant land around, it can't be expanded.
The cost of running two airports at the same time is huge, so it is better to build a new airport big enough.
This place is massive 😮 Cool exploration. Hoping to see more of this place in the future 😎
I hope so too! It's on the list ;)
Another epic episode Bob, love these types of explore.
Wow! Crazy explore! Definitely had me on edge, hoping for your safety! Thanks again, for another epic experience!
Great video Bob loved this, well done thanks for sharing brilliant video,👍🥰cant wait to see part two of this video bob loved this x
Wow!! What a breath taking explore literally with the prospect of being detected at any moment. Thank you so much Bob and massive kudos to Ring. she has more balls than a lot of men me included!!👍👍
Most control towers are not even connected to the terminals. You need to access externally via security gates.
You are right and I know this, but going outside was no option, so I hoped there was an entrance by the crew area :) The layout seems very simple but it wan't, haha
Even at my small, local airport with maybe 50 seats and a tiny snack bar, the entrance to the control tower isn't connected to the terminal. You have to go all the way out of the airport and enter through a different area to get there. Basically, even though they touch, it's a different facility.
This is next level, another awesome adventure and video!
That was fantastic! I really hope there will be more from this location!
Ring is badass; I think I'm in love.
Wow, great adventure. While you didn't get the time you wanted to explore,
this made for some tense viewing. Superb!
Bob, thank you sincerely for taking the risks that you take to show these amazing places. Stay safe my friend.
I love your work, it's amazing the level of skill and patience you and your friends possess.
I hope you achieve your aim of returning and accessing the tower 🙏
Thanks mate! Fingers crossed..
Wow Bob, this video was intense!! What a great thriller for the month of October 😅 Great explore!
Very cool man, thank you for what you do!
Amazing explore! Thanks for risking it for us to view! ❤
Your videos and work are insane! Thank you for sharing your content.
Thanks! Keep an eye on the channel for the next months ;) Only gets better !
Excellent Adventure Bob, I really enjoyed the video, thank you and to your Chinese Friends. 👍👍👍
I always love a thriller... as long as you don’t get caught! Another great one Bob!
Thanks Dan! Always good stories afterwards as long as I don't get caught indeed :')
I arrived in China in 2011 via this airport, heading to Dongying. Shame it closed.
It was such an exciting day.
I'm back in the UK now, but those 12 years were beyond awesome!❤
Thank you Bob for sharing. It was interesting 🙂👍💖
Beautiful airport. Far nicer than most of the airports open in the USA.
True that.. and also newer. The only good thing is that there are no plans to demolish it😄
Cool exploration, thank you Bob.
Great video!! Love it!well done!
Nice explore! That must have been quite the thrill.
Wow! You guys are AWESOME! Never seen anything like it before! 👍🏻👏🏻😊
thank you for risking your life to see all of this footage
great job man👍
I was so nervous and I was only watching it 😅😅 you are the best Bob, keep exploring
Good episode man - there was no way that control tower would have been accessible (left open).
Awesome video! I’d be so paranoid simply from seeing all the CC cameras every where. I wouldn’t be able to get over the feeling someone is watching. Does Ring have a CZcams channel? I’d love to see more footage of this place!
Wat weer een super avontuur Bob! Jammer dat je inderdaad niet alles kon zien maar wie weet keer je ooit nog eens terug. Ik kijk alweer uit naar de volgende video en je nieuwe boek natuurlijk :)
Can't wait for more
Man you are brave to do that in China.
This was a great nostalgia trip for me. I used to fly into that airport many times in the past and didn't realise it had closed. One thing I remember about this airport was that it had two security fences around the perimeter and in between the fences there were security dogs (German Shepherds they looked like) that would freely roam around. There were little kennels where the dogs could get some rest in the heat of the day.
O crazy! Never heard of something like this😵
Bob balls off steel to trespass in China 👍🏻👍🏻🙏🏻 stay safe
Great and very suspenseful video Bob. The risk to be arrested was very high. I believe that even the upload of the video is risky at dome extent. Thanks a lot.
I’m surprised you even found a way in!
It took a while but after a close inspection I found some weaker spots which are hard to spot😎 Thanks for checking out
Bob, wat weer een spannend avontuur.
What an exciting adventure again.
Thank you kindly for filming and sharing these unique locations!! I hope this comment finds you doing well Bob! Finally catching up on your videos💜😻
Nice you have found some time to watch :) Loved this adventure even if it didn't turn out how I wanted.
Amazing video and explore
Used to come by here every year or so to visit my grandparents, really wierd to see what used to be a semi crowded airport now completely empty and abandoned.
My grandfather did say he had a friend that worked here as a guard during covid and he said that there would usualy be a few guards at the tower watching around for activities (due to a military base south of the airport, not sure if its still operational or not though) so it was probably good that you didnt manage to get to the tower since if you did you probably would have been caught
(Sorry if my english is bad)
Oooo good to hear! That is a good possibility.. wouldn’t want to run into them😨😨😨 Thanks a lot for watching and your English is perfect! Hope to be back one day in Qingdao
Was in here when i was going from Beijing to qingdao to meet a relative a few years ago, unreal to see it empty
I used to live in Qingdao from 2010 to 2014, used this airport a lot in that time. Didnt know it closed, so freaky to see it empty and abandoned!
Gaaf gedaan, met plezier naar zitten kijken.
I was born in Qingdao and I remember going to and back here to visit my aunt and grandparents here. It’s shocking to see how this once bustling place look so desolate now.
Yes.. I wonder why they did not keep it open for by example low cost carriers.
@@ExploringtheUnbeatenPath
Because the new airport still has a lot of spare capacity.
I have seen a few of your videos Bob. The risks you take ….. what is evident to me from your videos is that many places could be restored and used to house homeless people. Some places could be bulldozed ( because of lead or asbestos contamination) and the basic land or structure reused. Stay safe and be carefull. Good job.
Subscribed and getting hooked!😎😎😂😂🌎🌎😎😎😂😂❤❤🤍🤍💙💙
The tower is generally not physically attached to the terminal. Security concern. If it appeared to be physically connected there is usually a separate entrance so that people traveling can’t get in it
I know this, but thought it would be accessible from a crew floor😊 The place was quite a maze. Thanks for checking out!
Super risky!! Congratulations for this one👏👏💯😎
Thanks ! Not what I wanted but a nice adventure.
Awesome video. The young lady that accompanied you during this exploration was absolutely fearless. Great work.
Yes amazing!😄 I posted a link to her IG
Sorry....I cant' seem to find the link. At any rate thank you for the repy.@@ExploringtheUnbeatenPath
@@djgiusto4610 It is in the video description @ring7ring
Thank you Bod and friend for this video with adrenaline!!! big greeting! when you come to Argentina. count on me!
You are one of the most advanturer and brave in this world. Congratulations my friend 🙂👍
Thanks my friend! Soon some epic ships 🚢 😎✌️
Thanks a lot my friend @@ExploringtheUnbeatenPath
Great explore :)
Thanks for watching😎
Look at this place, a million people used to come in and out of Qingdao Liuting, now it's a bloody ghost town. Never seen anything like it.
Crew and staff door would be in Side building or somwhere where public would not notice it. You need bring Bobby pin or something really smart to open the door.
Looks better than many other international airports still in active use!
True that! Including all airports in The Netherlands😂
好棒的探险！
Somebody is about to dip into the negative on their social credit score lol
Thrilling episode
The airport terminal is getting repurposed into a museum and conference center.
Dit is echt weer next level 😅
Yes these types of things should totally be redeveloped. The airport is so not useless, its still quite an amazing structure. Hey weather and radar is likely still active at the site, its also probably a backup runway if for some reason it was needed. Old airports are still airports, lots of technology.
I think there is a high probability that it will not be put into use again.
Because the new airport is huge. If the passenger flow of the new airport exceeds the design capacity, it may take 50 years.
Wat een enorme locatie en heel spannend! Jammer dat je de toren niet in kon :(
Uploaded in 50fps? Unusual! Great video btw :)
Always 50FPS 😄 thanks for checking out!✌️
They must still have plans for the place if they're have heavy security and regular cleaning. I know they originally intended to operate it as a regional hub, at one point.
As I know China very well and explored it extensively for 20 years. I take my hat off to salute Bob. Certainly Bob holds the crown with this one in comparison to other contenders.
Thanks Thomas! Have you seen the aircraft carrier, (former) military underground train workshop,theme parks and industrial places too? 😁🙏
@@ExploringtheUnbeatenPath They are top of my next viewing list ☺️
Nice cleaning agency they got there... still a lot to clean :)
Abandoned yet not left empty, weird they still clean all that, despite not using it.
Because there is an ongoing plan to repurpose the place.
This is next level urbexing :)
Even more epic stuff coming up in the next months! Also a crazy solo mission👀
Your abandoned airport videos are the most suspenseful.
Thank you
Damn this is crazy!
This is good actually. I mean, they don't 100% abandon the buildings.
They did, but start to clean it for an upcoming festival on the terrain😂
awesome! nice that you were not caught :)
Lucky us😂!! We had a few close calls
Bob whisper is more loud. Low voice talk is more soft. You a legend!
Thanks for checking out! Even better adventures are coming up😜
Good video
What happens if you need to have a dump? Also that airport is in netter condition than Dublin airport, Great video!
CZcamsr Sabbatical is also coincidentally in china right now, he does traveling videos all over the world and has same number of subscribers as you guys, try to hit him up, he speaks really good chinese as he used to live there and has a lot of insight. Just a suggestion, not necessarily for a video but just in general.
I am just back from another trip in China.. damn😂😅 Thanks for mentioning anyway. And thanks for watching too!
Good luck finding the chirping smoke detector with the low battery in that place. Lol
Hahahaha😂 and probably you can’t reach to it either.
Hi. Love your content. Its very exciting and cool. But im wondering are you not afraid to be prosecuted afterwards if they see your videos?
To be honest, it should be like this. The control tower is the core area of the Airport if it’s easily to let people get in that’s causing safety risk 😅
O well, since it’s out of use I thought this was my chance to see such tower. But I heard they use it for some military activity😮
Jij bent weer helemaal gek he, mooi man, nice❤
Yo Mart ! Alles ok daar!? De meest idiote missies komen in november en december online😃✌️
Wow I feel old. I've flown out of this airport.
Damn you guys have nerves of steel and NO fear... can't even imagine what would happen to you if you were caught doing this in China... WOW
Did you see my solo mission to an abandoned Soviet aircraft carrier?😁😁 Thanks!
The fire detector needing batteries. 😂
Isn't the control tower a separate building from the main airport building? I thought I saw it at the beginning of the video when you showed the outside.
Can you explore abandoned old Siem Reap airport in Cambodia?!
Dedication right there 🤙 I'm assuming after this trip China is off the cards for a good while 😂
That one was a nail biter for sure. I expected you to run into guards around every corner. Too bad you couldn't explore more, but still a good vid!
Thanks! Yes it was a big bummer considering the effort and time I put in this location. Lost 4 days for it. One day I explore this or another airport, but it was an adventure for sure!😎
I would totally take a month's worth of food, guessing that if power is still on water, it is to shower in VIP, cook in crew quarters sleep somewhere we'll out of the way, baggage claim, customs or corporate.
Interesting they had cleaning crews coming in. Maybe there are plans for the property after all.
The first festival outside on the terrain took place 3 weeks later… bad luck with timing…
Hey. Bob. Up to no good again along with your partner in cr!me;)
Great to see you post a good movie.
So clean.
From Craig. UK.
I juts found your channel like a week ago and I have watched like 40 videos 😂😂
Ah cool. I hope you saw some good ones then!😎✌️ If you need recommendations let me know.
I flew into and out of this airport back in 2018. I wonder what the government plans to do with it now that the new one is open.
Well they were cleaning for an upcoming festival. I guess cultural activities. Must be weird to see it unused
You can call this video, Going Russian Roulette lol entering there during spring cleaning? It is a miracle there were no more cameras active wow a special explore indeed.
Perhaps someone will convert it to shopping, factory, housing and the control tower would make a great restaurant etc….. 😊
