Named after its shape, the small island of Xiaoqingdao covers an area of only 0.024 square kilometers and has an elevation of only 17 meters. However, with its three sides facing the sea, it boasts beautiful scenery and offers a panoramic view of Qingdao's waterfront. After occupying Jiaozhou Bay, Germany named its occupied area "Qingdao" after this island, also known as "Akuna Island". After Japan occupied Qingdao, it was called "Katō Island", and the local residents began to refer to it as "Xiaoqingdao".
