[Dalian: Romantic Fragments Falling into Azure]

Who knows! Every sunset in Dalian feels like a kiss from the sea~ I just returned from this coastal city with its own background music and compiled a 4-day, 3-night immersive guide, with the seaside filter turned all the way up! 🏙️ [Where to stay?] ✔️Xi'an Road business district is really great! It's 10 minutes to the subway, and a taxi to Xinghai/Venice costs only about 15 RMB. I highly recommend a room with a view of the neon night scene from the window. Watching the traffic on the cross-sea bridge at night is super healing~ 📸️ [Healing moments by the sea] ▫️Xinghai Square: Wait for an orange soda-flavored sunset, chase kites along the coastline, and there's an old man singing "Ode to the Sea, My Hometown" under the lighthouse. ▫️Fisherman's Wharf: Blue and white houses + orange sunset = pretending to be in Greece! Buy 10 RMB of squid on the shore to feed the seagulls, the sound of their wings flapping is super healing. ▫️Lingjiaowan: Hidden spot! Walk the boardwalk at low tide at 5pm, seaweed and shells bloom into impressionist paintings in the cracks of the rocks. ⛰️ [Climbing warning] Bloody lesson learned👉 Haizhiyue Park doesn't look big, but it's all uphill! I doubted my life walking in canvas shoes... Bangchuidao requires a ticket, but the beach is soft and fluffy. I recommend renting a parasol and lying down for an afternoon. 🍜 [Feeding guide] ✅Xinghai Square "Yi Xian Yi Jiao": The sea urchin dumplings burst with yellow when you bite into them! The shrimp dumplings hide a whole Liaodong sea cucumber. ✅Xi'an Road "Nuomixiang": 38 RMB crab roe pan-fried buns, be warned of the golden soup that bursts out when you bite into them! ✅Venice Water City "Rich&Liberty": 100 RMB per person for the atmosphere, the window seat has the cross-sea bridge as a backdrop, and the steak is cooked just right. ❌Avoid: The Russian cuisine in Russian Style Street has small portions and high prices. It's better to buy a 5 RMB grilled cold noodle at the entrance of Labor Park. 🚣 [Photo eggs] • Lotus Mountain Viewing Platform: Wait at 4pm, the golden sunlight will dye the cross-sea bridge honey-colored. • Nanshan Street "Detective Conan": Japanese izakaya facade + warm yellow lights, wear a knitted sweater and hold a glass to take great photos in seconds. • Xinghai Bathing Beach Boardwalk: At low tide, the sea water dances in the cracks of the wooden boards, and the low-angle shots of the sea foam are super dreamy. 🌅 [Sunset Timetable] April: 17:30-18:00 golden hour May: 18:30-19:00 gradient pink, purple and blue Tips: After taking photos of the sunset, go to Xi'an Road Night Market to buy three boxes of grilled scallops for 20 RMB. The aroma of garlic can drift half a street! It turns out that the filming location of the "Seaside Boy" MV really exists! Those fishing boats dyed red by the sunset, the pebbles wet by the waves, and the salty taste in the sea breeze are all hidden in the cracks of Dalian~ This summer, you must go to see a live show about the sea, right? 🎤✨
