Xinghai Park is definitely worth punching in! The sea view here is superb, the blue sky and blue sea are fun. The amusement projects are super rich, the sea bungee jumping is super exciting, the Ferris wheel can enjoy the panoramic view, and the beach can play in the water. Whether it is a parent-child, a couple or a holiday, you can have fun.
The boss of Dalian has a special love for Xinghai Park. When I was a child, every summer, I went to Xinghai Park to swim was the happiest thing. At that time, there was no Xinghai Bay Bridge, and Xinghai Park was almost a wasteland.

Take Metro Line 2 to Xinghai Square Station, then walk about 1 kilometer. Walk through the food street to Xinghai Square. There's a cross-sea bridge and seagulls. The scenery is slightly less impressive on a cloudy day; it's much better for photos on a sunny day. There are fun interactive experiences where you can buy food to feed the seagulls. Great value for money; free to stroll around the square and enjoy the scenery.
Xinghai Square is a massive public square located on the southern coast of Dalian, Liaoning Province, China. It is one of the world's largest city squares (certified by Guinness World Records), covering an area of ​​1.76 million square meters. Construction began in 1993 to commemorate Hong Kong's return to China and was completed in 1997. Xinghai Square is not only a landmark but also Dalian's urban living room and cultural center, integrating historical commemoration, sightseeing, leisure and entertainment, and cultural activities.

It's okay, it only takes a minute or a few minutes to go around. It's quite fast because it's electric and not hand-cranked. Compared with the rowing boats in Suzhou Hangzhou 2030, this one feels average and the scenery is average, worth 15 at most.
I went there during the National Day holiday. There were too many people and it would normally take a long time to queue up. I bought an Express Pass and got on the boat quickly. The scenery at night was nice and it was very beautiful in the early autumn evening!

Distance makes the heart grow fonder. Tiger Beach Fisherman's Wharf and Lingjiao Bay face each other across the sea. The buildings here are quite beautiful when viewed from the opposite side of Lingjiao Bay, but they are just so-so when viewed up close. It is quite commercialized, with street-style shops and cars parked in a bit of a mess. We had a couple of drinks at Bawang Tea House and a dinner. The food at Pinhailou was quite good.
Dalian's Fisherman's Wharf is in a great location, with a quiet fishing village feel that makes you feel like you're on vacation abroad. It's a great place to feed the seagulls, go for a run, and there's plenty of delicious food nearby. It's a great place to relax and unwind, and transportation is also convenient!

This attraction is very good. The scenery above is very good. The mountain breeze above is very comfortable. You can see the panoramic view of Dalian in 360 degrees. The transportation to the viewing platform is also very convenient. You can take your family there to better experience the beauty of Dalian.
For those who like to see natural landscapes, this is the best viewing position. You can see both the sea and the city. The ticket to the scenic area is a bit expensive, but you can walk up by yourself, which only takes about ten minutes. The scenery will be more beautiful on a sunny day, with a panoramic view of the cross-sea bridge, Xinghai Square, Fujiazhuang Forest Zoo and part of the city.

The hotel window overlooking Friendship Square offers a view of Zhongshan Square, and the architecture is quite impressive up close. Ten radial streets extend to form a unique European-style urban layout, and the buildings combine diverse styles such as Gothic, Baroque, and Romanesque, making it well worth a visit. Transportation is also quite convenient, and it's close to attractions like the Russian Style Street Art Museum.
Dalian's Zhongshan Square is very beautiful, with many cute pigeons inside. You can experience the fun of feeding the pigeons. There are many European-style buildings nearby, which are super beautiful and reflect the characteristics of Dalian as an international metropolis. There is a subway in the square, which can directly reach Xinghai Square, Donggang and other tourist attractions!

We booked a small yacht for a trip. The kids fed the seagulls, which flew alongside the boat. We watched the sunset, drank beer, enjoyed the sea breeze, and admired the European-style architecture of Donggang. It was so comfortable. The whole family was very satisfied. 👍
Step into this "fashion territory", the yacht is neatly arranged, the aura is full. In the evening, the lights on the other side are gradually bright, the music fountain dances with the melody, and the light and shadow jump on the water curtain. I walked along the pier, the sea breeze wrapped in romance, taking pictures and hair circles, friends asked if I was out of the country, pride and cozy feeling came up together.

Dalian's Binhai Road is breathtakingly beautiful. It's incredibly dreamy, filled with birdsong and fragrant flowers. Facing the sea, spring blossoms bloom, its beauty is beyond words. I consider it the most beautiful place in Dalian, bar none. Strolling along it is truly relaxing, and the air quality is top-notch.
Self-driving Binhai Road, the left hand mountain is stacked green, the right hand sea is rough, every eye is a visual feast! Stop at Fujiazhuang, North Bridge, get off to take pictures, the sea breeze is blowing, the hair is flying beautiful. On foot, the breath of the mountains and seas is wrapped in footsteps, every step is stepped in the scenery, after shopping, the vastness of the sea and mountains, fill the body and mind full of Dangdang, super cool!

I went to Dachangshan Island in late September. There were few tourists. The island was peaceful and relaxing, and I could fully experience the island style. Strolling along Binhai Road in the city, fishing by the sea is also a scenery, and watching fishing boats. Cross the cross-sea bridge to Xiaoshuikou Forest Park. The sea water is clean and clear, and it is a beautiful place to take pictures. I took pictures of the lighthouse at Yuanyang Port on the island. I took the No. 1 bus on the island for 2 yuan to cross Dachangshan Island and Xiaochangshan Island. The slow traffic allows you to enjoy the coastal scenery and experience the local customs and customs of the small town on the island. It is worth it.
I visited the Big and Small Changshan Islands a few years ago. The scenery is nice and it is a good place to relax. You can stay in a B&B on the Gold Coast, watch the sunrise in the morning, and visit the Small Changshan Island, which is connected by the Changshan Bridge.

You can see the double scenery on the zoo Ferris wheel! Ascend to the highest point, one side is the green space and animal venues in the zoo, and the elephants walk slowly in the distance; the other side is the city and the sea, and the view is super wide. The car slowly turned, and the wind blew in from the window, which was very comfortable. It is best to sit in the evening, the sunset dyes the sky pink and purple, and the city lights are brighter. You don't have to go to the amusement park to experience the romance of the Ferris wheel here.
On the Ferris wheel at the Forest Zoo, the whole family chatted about family matters. When it reached a high point, the child pointed at the zoo area and screamed, while the parents looked at the scenery in the distance and sighed. The sister-in-law distributed snacks to everyone, and the grandfather said, "This is more comfortable than riding in a sedan chair." The wheel turned slowly, the family talked and laughed, and ordinary moments became precious.
