I listened to a special lecture on the historical origins and various situations of the Shenyang Palace Museum. It was quite interesting. The explanation was very detailed and the questions asked were basically answered. I was very satisfied.
We went to the Shenyang Palace and the Marshal's Mansion today. The tour guide was so good. The children listened with great interest. He was very dedicated and great. If we come again next time, I hope to have such a good explanation.

My bag is filled with the spring of the north, and the snow and wind turn the journey into a warm dust.
The moonlight over Songjiang shines on the mountain roads, and the smoke-filled streets and alleys warm the traveler's dreams.
Let us trust that good luck will temporarily bring us back to Changchun, where spring will return.
This farewell is not a thousand miles away, but we will surely meet again on a beautiful day.
—We will meet again someday, and all the mountains and seas will be warm✨
Jilin will soon find its auspicious beginnings, and Changchun will eventually return to its eternal spring.
The wind and snow of Changbai Mountain leave scars on my heart, and the waves of Songjiang River surge in my memory of my old friends.
Let us not ask how far the mountains and rivers are from now on, but share a golden cup with the clouds and moon.
Our reunion will surely bring new joys, laughter filling the streets and the wine still warm.

Shenyang Fantawild is a true paradise! The thrilling rides are incredibly exciting, like the Fire Meteor roller coaster, which screams at lightning speed, and the warm and romantic carousel, which feels like being transported to a fairytale. The staff are friendly and attentive, and the experience is fantastic. I highly recommend it!
Fantawild's attractions are amazing! The roller coaster is so thrilling, the 4D cinema is incredibly realistic, the scenery is dreamy and out of this world, and the staff are so welcoming. One day is definitely not enough!

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.

The night show is more interesting. Tickets are checked in at 16:30 and there will be NPC interactions at the entrance. The Shanhaijing Wonderful Night Show starts at 19:30, and there will be singing and interactive activities at the front to warm up the audience. If you want a good seat, enter early to get a seat. Remember to bring a raincoat because there will be a rain spray session. Umbrellas are sold on site for 35, which is too expensive.
Before going, I read the reviews and didn't buy daytime tickets, only the night show. I found the venue quite small and the equipment quite old. The evening show was quite good, and the fireworks were beautiful. But why are there discounts for children and college students, but not for middle and high school students? These children get discounts elsewhere, so why are children and adults priced the same here?

Thanks to the rafting guy who pulled us out and helped me find my glasses. 🙏🙏🙏. The rafting waves were so thrilling. So much fun. The park is so huge. One day is definitely not enough to explore. The staff are so friendly and attentive. The service is great! No words can express my excitement at this moment❤
My kids loved it here, playing from 10 AM to 6 PM and still wanting more. It wasn't crowded the day we went, so it was a great experience.
You can order lunch a la carte, and the spicy hot pot and beef noodles were both delicious.
The only problem was that towels were only available at the entrance, so you had to walk quite a distance to get a new one...

Changchun Zoological and Botanical Park, located in Nanguan District, Changchun City, Jilin Province, covers 74 hectares, including 8.8 hectares of water surface and 0.8 hectares of built space. A specialized park with its primary social functions as a conservation and exhibition center, it also serves as a wildlife science education and promotion platform, providing conservation education, research, earthquake macroscopic observation, and recreational activities.
Changchun Zoological and Botanical Park was originally built in 1938 during the Japanese occupation of Changchun. Known as the "Xinjing Zoological and Botanical Garden," it was also commonly known as the "Tiger Park" or the "Nanling Zoo," and was known as "Asia's No. 1 Park."
When Japan surrendered in 1945, all of the park's lions, tigers, and other large predators were poisoned and killed. Other animals, lacking care, starved to death. During the Kuomintang occupation of Changchun, the park became a training ground for its troops, destroying its facilities and trees. The once-thriving park was reduced to a ruin of broken walls and overgrown weeds.
I came to Changchun specifically to watch Snow Monkey and Tang Monk. I didn't expect there would be so many people at the Monday night show. Snow Monkey is the most popular. The performance is great, each performance is well connected, and the actors are very dedicated. It is worth coming.

The tide table is very accurate, so be sure to plan your time in advance. The rocks on the overpass road are very sharp, so be sure to wear waterproofs! It's suitable for catching the sea, but be careful with children.
We went during the day, but going at night might be more cost-effective. There were almost no performances during the day, and the food was quite expensive. The architecture was average, with a strong commercial feel, making it feel like I was spending money on a shopping street.

The desert was too hot, and the children were overwhelmed by the heat and almost had heatstroke. The children really liked playing in the sand, including sandboarding. The photos they took were very good and very filmy. The sand socks they bought were a bit expensive, 20 a pair. If you haven't been there yet, you can buy them on Taobao. I didn't do much else. Riding camels and off-road vehicles was a bit expensive, so I won't comment on it.
This desert attraction near Chifeng is well worth visiting. You line up at the entrance to ride the miniature train, which offers stunning views of the desert and lake. The photos are truly stunning. After the miniature train arrives, about 500 meters from the entrance, you can take camel and sandboard rides. My children didn't like camel riding, so we only went sandboarding. They played for a long time, and I did a few as well. It was tiring, but it was fun. It was hot and sunny, and I ended up getting tanned like a charcoal in the afternoon—literally, a charcoal-like color. Afterward, we walked out of the attraction. Overall, the experience was okay, though the ticket price, including the miniature train, is quite expensive (and there are children's tickets available if you buy a separate ticket, but not if you buy the miniature train as a package, which I give a negative review for).

The moment I stepped into the Shenyang Museum, I was enveloped by a strange tranquility. Beneath the soaring dome, light, like a messenger of time, gently shone upon the neatly arranged display cases. Behind glass barriers, the artifacts—gold embroidery on Qing Dynasty dragon robes, charred wood carvings from the Xinle Ruins, and ritual instruments from the Bronze Age—rested peacefully. Meticulously labeled, scientifically illuminated, and temperature-controlled, they evoked a unique museum-like "perfect solitude."
As I left the exhibition hall, the setting sun filtered through the vast glass curtain wall, bathing the entire museum in a golden glow. I realized that the true value of a museum lies not in the number of "objects" it preserves, but in its ability to inspire visitors to make the leap from "viewing" to "understanding." History is not a sealed specimen but a memory that needs to be activated. Those glass display cases are both barriers and windows. The key lies in our willingness to unlock them with the key of imagination, allowing the artifacts to breathe again and history to speak once more.
What the Shenyang Museum ultimately left me with was not the memory of the artifacts themselves, but the revelation of a method: true historical understanding occurs when the viewer's soul trembles, when the glimmer of the past illuminates the present of our existence through the intermediary of objects.
This trip to Shenyang finally revealed that, besides the Liaoning Provincial Museum, the Shenyang Museum is also a truly outstanding destination. While its collections lag behind the Liaoning Provincial Museum in both quantity and quality, the selection and layout of its exhibits differentiate it from the Liaoning Museum, a testament to the museum's thoughtful approach. The Shenyang Museum's smaller size and smaller visitor numbers make for a more manageable and less tiring visit. The exhibits feature artifacts from the Stone Age, feudal dynasties to modern times, the Qing Dynasty imperial family and its history, and collections from the Shenyang Palace Museum. The Khitan pure gold mask is a highlight among the museum's treasures.
