This article attempts to ascertain the relationship between site characteristics of 115 buildings of Badaguan Villa and surroundings in Qingdao during the Republic of China. Three groups can be clarified by cluster analysis, 18 sites in group A located on southern slopes at foot of hill ensuring sea view, 47 sites in group B located on hillside mostly maintaining Taiping Mountain vistas, 50 sites in group C located on northern slopes of top of hill mostly preserving mountain view. Some of group B and group C comply with daylight and summer southeast monsoon, while the former can see specific mountain or sea, and the latter can see specific sea. Overall, the Badaguan Villa layout has taken elevation, slope orientation, daylight and summer southeast monsoon into consideration pursuing mountain and sea view.
