As a native of Shenyang, the one palace and two mausoleums are my childhood memories. This time, I accompanied my southern friend Little Potato to visit Shenyang, and the Forbidden City was a must-see. As the Forbidden City within the Great Wall, although its scale is not as large as the Forbidden City in Beijing, its scenery and grandeur are no less impressive.
A highly valued 5A scenic spot with a wealth of attractions and numerous cultural relics.
Conveniently located in the heart of the city, it's a must-see and internet-famous attraction.

The scenery is elegant and divided into several pavilions. I watched the performances of dolphins, sea lions and birds. It was very exciting. The scenic area signs were very clear, and there was a performance schedule at a glance. It was a very pleasant trip.
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.

The guides were professional and enthusiastic, and the experience was truly beneficial. The vegetation within the site is rich and diverse, with vibrant colors that are truly pleasing to the eye. The art exhibition center boasts a wealth of stunning artworks. The detailed explanations and interpretations within the site further enhance the experience.
The Light of Life is a favorite for children. It tells the story of the origin of life, from blue algae to the birth of various organisms. It is very meaningful. After that, there are various activities for children to play.

It's a great place for children, as it's very interactive. However, each interactive step requires an additional fee, such as feeding giraffes, capybaras, and seals. You can buy apples, bananas, carrots, and chicken necks in advance at the Jiajiayue Supermarket in parking lot 5. They're quite expensive there, but staff won't let you feed them, so you'll have to do it secretly. It's not recommended for the elderly, or to take the sightseeing bus the entire way, but you'll miss many animals. There's a hill to climb right after entering the zoo, and then another hill to climb, which requires a lot of stamina.
I visited the Shendiaoshan Zoo during the summer vacation.
Parking and Transportation: Parking is quite convenient, with several large parking lots and free parking.
Activities: While there are many activities available, the prices are reasonable.
For example, feeding the animals costs about 20-30 yuan per portion, which is similar to other zoos. The magic carpet ride is also affordable and worth a try. Drinks and snacks are slightly more expensive than outside, but are typical for scenic spots.
Tips: The entire route is one-way, and the amount of hiking and walking is quite intense, so be prepared if you're traveling with young children. Going there during the summer vacation meant I was often pushed around by the crowds, but overall the experience was quite good. There's a wide variety of animals here, and you can interact with many of them up close, like feeding giraffes and touching elephant trunks. The kids had a blast.
Overall, while it can be crowded during the summer, it's still worth a visit if you want to get up close and personal with the animals.

The zoo is uniquely built into the mountainside, and the many feeding activities are quite interesting. I was especially surprised to see the elephants catching food with their trunks. The price of 20 yuan per serving is quite reasonable. Entering from the south gate and exiting from the north gate, you can take the cable car to enjoy the beautiful view of the cross-sea bridge. The cable car is less crowded and has shorter lines than the vegetarian car from the Lotus Mountain Observation Deck.
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!

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.

It's worth going, with a good location in the center of the South District. It's convenient to get around. The welcome gift includes a lot of snacks and drinks. It's located at the junction of the South District and the North Bank, which is quite secluded. I stayed in the first room with a small balcony. The marble materials and furnishings in the room are very European, reminding me of the Foundation Hotel I stayed in a small town in southern France.
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.

The scenic area is not particularly large. There are two sightseeing spots, one is the end of the world and the other is the blessed land of the East China Sea. It is nice to walk around the scenic spot. There is a sightseeing bus, which costs 20 yuan per person for a round trip. It will save some effort between the two attractions. Overall, the ticket price is still a bit expensive.
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.
