I'm not going to Harbin, nor to Beijing, I came to Shenyang!

The Palace Museum in Shenyang also exists. The Palace Museum in Beijing is now one of the most popular tourist spots in the country, often hard to get a ticket. It is the imperial palace of the Ming and Qing dynasties, and there is also a Palace Museum in Shenyang, which was the imperial palace before the Qing Dynasty entered the pass. Together with the Palace Museum in Beijing, they are the two major palace architectural complexes in China. In 2004, it was listed as a World Cultural Heritage as an extension project of the cultural heritage of the Ming and Qing Imperial Palaces. The Palace Museum in Shenyang is by no means a miniature version of the Palace Museum in Beijing. The main hall with double eaves and pointed roofs is extremely rare in the country. Moreover, if you want to take pictures of red walls and snow scenes, the density of people in the Palace Museum in Shenyang is much smaller than that in the Palace Museum in Beijing, and there is more often snow. Tour route: According to the layout of the building and the order of construction, it can be divided into three parts: East Road, Middle Road, West Road East Road: The Great Political Hall and the Ten Kings Pavilion are the places where the emperor held grand ceremonies and the Eight Banners ministers worked. They were built by Nurhachi, the Emperor Taizu of the Qing Dynasty, after he moved his capital to Shenyang in 1625. They are the earliest buildings. The symbolic building in the middle is the Great Political Hall. The two in the front are the Left Wing King Pavilion and the Right Wing King Pavilion, followed by the Eight Banners King Pavilion. Middle Road: Daqing Gate, Chongzheng Hall, Phoenix Tower, Five Palaces on the Platform (Zhonggong Qingning Palace, East Side Guanju Palace, Yanqing Palace, West Side Linzhi Palace, Yongfu Palace), are the places where the emperor carried out political activities and the concubines lived. They were built during the period of Emperor Taizong of the Qing Dynasty and belong to the second phase of construction. West Road: Theater, Jiayin Hall, Palace Gate, Wenshu Pavilion, Yangxi Pavilion, Stele Pavilion and Nine Halls, are the places where the emperors of the Qing Dynasty read books and watched operas when they toured Shengjing, and stored the 'Four Books'. The buildings were built in the 46th year of Qianlong (1781) and belong to the last group of buildings. The coffee shop and exit of the scenic area are set up in this area. Opening hours: April 10-October 10, 8:30-17:30 October 11-April 9, 9:00-16:30. Note: Closed on Monday mornings (except for statutory holidays and July and August), open at 13:00 Ticket: 50 yuan

Stay at Haoze Xiruidi in Shenyang, and the best part is "you don't have to go far to capture both sides of Shenyang"—one side is the bustling city center, the other is the poetic old town.
