The Shenyang Imperial Palace is located in the city center, just a short walk from the Zhongjie Commercial Pedestrian Street. While the area itself is small, its architectural style and layout retain an imperial atmosphere. Come and explore!
We have to give a big thumbs up to Director Hao for his explanation of this trip! Director Hao was very considerate and added WeChat in advance to remind us of various precautions. The entire explanation process was very professional and meticulous. Because we were traveling as a family and our children were older and had sufficient knowledge of historical knowledge, Director Hao focused on the content of the explanation based on the family situation. He explained the history and construction process of the Shenyang Palace Museum, the different functions of each building in great detail, and compared the differences with the Forbidden City in Beijing. During the period, he also humorously interspersed the explanation of the plot of "The Legend of Zhen Huan", which was very vivid and vivid. A big thumbs up to our own Director Hao!

A must-visit place for tourists in Dalian, with complete facilities and many places to play. The fun cannot be compared with Happy Valley and Disney, and the venues are not too large. After all, you are going to see the sea, so you can't be too picky.
It's very big inside, and each museum and each project have separate fees. I don't understand why they sell tickets. Be careful of black tour guides and scammers at the door. Dalian experience, buy tickets online or at the scenic spot ticket office. Don't pay attention to anyone who talks to you, it's all a trick.

It's big, hilly, and tiring... but the kids loved it. Of course, you can also take the magic carpet or sightseeing car rides to reduce the exertion. Those who have been there recommend going in the morning when the animals are more active. We went around 3 p.m., and it was much cooler by evening. There are many parking lots, and we parked in lot 5, which was a bit far from the entrance, but when we came out, we were right in lot 5. What a surprise.
My two adults and two children were incredibly satisfied with this trip. I highly recommend interacting with the animals; the staff were mostly indifferent. We bought carrots, duck necks, and peanuts from Meituan. The carrots were pre-cut, and everyone loved the peanuts. We didn't buy enough duck necks; after all, who knew there were so many tigers? If you draw circles around a bear with a carrot, it'll happily wave back with a flattering expression, nodding and smiling. Finally, it'll give you a "enough, enough, time to feed" expression. The little monkey also does this, and its body language is amazing. He glanced at me, and I couldn't tell what he was doing, but I knew he was telling me to give it a treat. He'll even perform various catch-the-food tricks when you throw it to him. They don't even care if it falls on the ground. I'm dying of laughter. I finally invited Big Monkey to dinner, so I had to buy some good apples. I didn't have a knife, so I bit into them myself and threw them to them. Surprisingly, that's how I became the person who has bitten an apple with Big Monkey. The two monkeys in love in the picture are so sweet. The female monkey gives the male monkey a little massage and trims his hair. My husband is so envious. I threw an apple to them, and the male monkey looked at me with a knife-like look. It was like, "How can you be so tactless and destroy us? I have to deal with you." The facial expressions can be made, it's amazing.

It was a really great experience...
Here's my guide: I took the cable car from the South Gate to the North Gate (the advantage is no lines, the disadvantage is you have to turn your head to see the ocean, which is a pain in the neck). Then, after entering through the North Gate, I bought a ticket for the train. I could get off at each park and then wait for the next train to continue. I continued all the way to the intersection of the captive and free-range areas, took the elevator down to the free-range area, and then skipped the train ticket. I could just stroll around and see the tigers, bears, giraffes, and more. It was a relaxing experience! Finally, I visited the Panda House and the Small Animal House, and that was a perfect end to my trip!
It was quite nice, with cooler nights. There were plenty of animals in the free-range area, but the enclosures were closed at 9:30.
After dinner, I decided to go for a stroll, but it was already past 8:00 when I arrived, so I felt rushed. If you have time, you can go two hours earlier.

As a frequent traveler, the only thing I recommend about Xianluo Island is the sea cable car. This suspended, non-enclosed gondola ride is incredibly thrilling, with the sea breeze caressing your face and the vast expanse of turquoise waters, making it well worth a try. However, Xianluo Island itself isn't worth exploring; it's a small area and the attractions are relatively old. The island's conch museum isn't particularly impressive, but there are plenty of parking lots nearby, making it relatively convenient.
The island is small, and the details are beautiful to be discovered. It's just crowded, so you can take a boat to get to the island faster. I didn't take any photos or videos when I got off the island. I could have found more places to take photos.

This area is well worth a visit. It has an aquarium and an underwater world (including an underwater tunnel). Dalian Sun Asia Ocean World, located within Xinghai Park, also offers other attractions.
There's also the Xinghai Bay beach for playful swimming. It's a great place to take children.
I took my children there at the end of the holiday, and there were still a lot of people. While avoiding the heat, I also let my children learn about marine life. It was the most regrettable arrangement in the hot summer! Both adults and children were not tired.

The Liaoning Provincial Museum has a large collection of exhibits, and the explanations are very detailed and informative. I learned a lot from the two and a half hour explanation. I thank the tour guide for his wonderful explanation.
I finally had the chance to visit the Liaoning Provincial Museum, a provincial museum jointly built by the national and local governments. It had been on my wish list for a long time, but I finally managed to pull it off today. Since its relocation to the new building in Hunnan District, Shenyang, the exhibition area has been greatly expanded, allowing more of the museum's collection to be seen, which is definitely a major benefit. I confirmed before the trip that the museum's true treasures were all at home, not traveling or on loan. However, the finest paintings and calligraphy were digitized and displayed in VR, so I couldn't see them in person. The Liaoning Provincial Museum is absolutely not to be missed.

There is a beautiful plank road in Chengshantou Scenic Area. The end of the world is the easternmost sea in my country. There are many seagulls and many people are feeding them. There is also a cable car. Unfortunately, it rained heavily that day and the cable car was closed.
Our family was immersed in the joy of traveling. The ebb and flow of the sea seemed like the breath of nature. The mountains stood quietly in the distance. The mottled rocks were engraved with traces of time, silently telling the history and legend of this land.

This is a place worth visiting, suitable for a person to relax, girlfriends to meet, couples to date. In the morning, stroll by the beach to enjoy the sunrise, and enjoy the lonely auditorium at night. It is really lonely. In quiet times, children may prefer to play and play on the beach. A shot is a blockbuster. There are several canteens in the community, the dishes are rich in variety and the taste is very good. The most convenient thing for staying guests is that there is a hotel shuttle bus, which is very convenient and the gospel of lazy people.
Recommended by Mr. Rabbit Painting Exhibition of Anaya North Shore, it perfectly blends a unique IP image of Mr. Rabbit with the holiday experience of Anaya North Shore Yue YUE HOTEL, creating a unique atmosphere that is both childlike and adult thinking. Highlights: Strong IP Image Shaping - "Mr. Rabbit": Unique source: pulled from childhood memories by "MR.BAIBAI", giving it a nostalgic and warm background color. Character three-dimensional: "Audacious and gentle" coexist, "harmony - wrapped healing temperature", like to be in a daze thinking, full of contradictions and charming real sense. Behavior figurative: beach painting smiley faces, telling cold jokes about the waves, lame enough shells, writing notes for the sunset... These childish and slightly absurd behaviors make the image jump on the paper. Symbolic meaning: become a symbol of "child healing" and "self reconciliation". Immersive Scene Creation - North Shore Yue YUE HOTEL: Scene specific: The copywriting closely links Mr. Rabbit's behavior with the different spaces of the hotel (beach, hotel lobby, youth travel room), so that readers feel as if they are immersive. Atmosphere rendering: through "sea breeze shatters the light spot", "dummy thoughts on the dunes", "thinking the secrets hidden in the wind", "notes left for the sunset" and other picturesque texts, successfully molded Anaya's unique literary, lazy, and healing summer vacation atmosphere. Core theme delivery - Healing and reconciliation: Accurate positioning: moving the tired mind of urban adults, focusing on “healing” and “self-reconciliation.” The appeal is clear: encourage people to "steal a moment of laziness" in the sea breeze, "pick up a piece of innocence" in art (exhibition), and convey to readers the core emotional value of "occasionally alone is a gentle way to reconcile with yourself." Emotional progression: from visual/ambient description to characterization, finally rising to emotional resonance and action call. Interaction and transformation - "healing code" and punch-in rewards: "healing code" as the core concept of the activity, cleverly visualizes emotional value as a stunt to attract users. Clear action call: "wait for you to pick up", guide readers to participate. Point of interest drive: "on-site photo punch card, receive exclusive customized surrounding gifts", provide physical souvenirs and social currency, improve user participation, form secondary dissemination. Language style: Poetic romance: A large number of poetic images and metaphors (crumpling light spots, holding up ideas, secrets in the wind). Literary and artistic delicate: delicate emotional depiction flowing between the lines. Easy and brash: "Audacious", "lame enough shell", "cold joke" and other words bring a relaxed sense of humor. Warm and healing: The overall tone is warm and soft, emphasizing the softness and healing power of the heart. Rich childlike: "childlike reverie", "crooked smiley face", "childlike pure" and other descriptions throughout.

Weihai's Motianling Cableway boasts a reputation as Asia's longest cross-sea cableway.
The northern route (Motianling section) offers the best views of the ocean, while the southern route (Chengshan section) offers mountain views.
The Motianling Cableway is undoubtedly one of the most dazzling sights against the golden ocean in the early morning. It not only provides an excellent vantage point for sunrise viewing, but also offers panoramic views of the vast ocean and rolling mountains, capturing the beauty of nature.
The combination of blue sky, white clouds, and azure sea with the primary colors of the cable car is truly photogenic.
I arrived at the cable car ticket office at 9:00 am on a summer Sunday, and the line was incredibly long.
I chose to take the bus to the entrance for the lower section, where the line was shorter, but it still took an hour.
The view from the cable car is truly stunning, though the reflection from the glass slightly detracts from the effect.
