Looks very distinct. Nice choice of colors. Each station having their own interior design features would make taking the metro even more fun.
True.
Now you can't even call it a subway in China if they don't have their own unique design....
People will call it tasteless.....

Is Qingdao a major city?
I think so, though it is not a provincial capital.
The population of the entire municipality reaches 9+ million (main city + outer districts + county-level cities).
GDP reached 1 trillion yuan in 2016.

You can see from the map, the core urban districts are on the east coast of Jiaozhou Bay.

The estuary of Jianzhou Bay
You can see the peninsular where the city proper sits.
There is a tunnel at the entrance of the bay.
Another cross-bay bridge is closer to mainland.
