Trip to Shenyang, China 🇨🇳

It was a trip to Shenyang, China 🇨🇳 Shenyang, the capital of Liaoning Province, is a city rich in imperial history, vibrant street life, and stunning architecture 💯 We explored the most photogenic spots, from ancient palaces to modern cityscapes 🙌 We started our journey at the Shenyang Imperial Palace (Mukden Palace), the second-largest palace complex in China after the Forbidden City 😍 Arriving in the morning allowed us to take incredible photos of its red walls, golden rooftops, and intricate carvings without the crowds 🙌 We also explored Zhongjie Pedestrian Street, Shenyang’s oldest shopping street. The mix of traditional Chinese storefronts and modern boutiques provided plenty of vibrant street photography opportunities 📸 📍Shenyang Imperial Palace Address: No. 171, Shenyang Road, Shenhe District, Shenyang, Liaoning, China 📍Zhongjie Pedestrian Street Address: Zhongjie Road, Shenhe District, Shenyang, Liaoning, China We also visited Beiling Park, home 🏠 to Zhaoling Tomb, the resting place of Emperor Huang Taiji. The long pathways lined with ancient trees and stone guardian statues created a serene and atmospheric setting for photography 📸 In the evening, we headed to Xingshun Night Market, one of the largest night markets in China 💯 The bright neon signs, sizzling street food, and lively crowds made for dynamic nighttime shots 📸 📍Beiling Park (Zhaoling Tomb) Address: No. 12, Taishan Road, Huanggu District, Shenyang, Liaoning, China 📍Xingshun Night Market Address: No. 20, Xingshun Street, Tiexi District, Shenyang, Liaoning, China We also spent some time at 9.18 Historical Museum, a somber but important site that documents the events of the Mukden Incident.
