Experience a different side of Shenyang

Here's a three-day, two-night winter travel guide to lesser-known attractions in Shenyang: Day 1: An Industrial and Artistic Journey • Morning: Visit the China Industrial Museum. Free admission, it showcases various vintage industrial equipment, such as giant cupola furnaces and old-fashioned locomotives, transporting you back to the industrial era – perfect for retro-style photos. • Noon: Lunch near Fengtian Memory Cultural Park. Transformed from an old cigarette factory, the park's red-brick buildings against a wintery backdrop offer a unique charm. Several restaurants and cafes are available. • Afternoon: Head to Hongmei Cultural and Creative Park. Formerly a MSG factory, it's now brimming with artistic atmosphere, featuring various creative shops, galleries, and studios. Browse the shops, soak in the art, and take photos in front of the unique buildings. • Evening: Visit the 1905 Cultural and Creative Park, a former heavy machinery factory. It boasts numerous bars, restaurants, and creative stalls. At night, the lights illuminate the park, blending industrial style with modern art in a vibrant atmosphere. You might even catch a live band performance. • Accommodation: It's recommended to stay near the Century Building for convenient transportation. The Manji Hotel is a good option. Day 2: Imperial Tombs and Folk Customs • Morning: Visit Dongling Park (Qing Fuling), the mausoleum of Nurhaci. Entrance fee: 40 yuan. In winter, the ancient pine forests are covered in snow, and the stone statues along the sacred path appear even more solemn against the snowy backdrop, making it a perfect spot for photos. • Lunch: Enjoy lunch at a local farmhouse restaurant near Dongling, sampling Northeastern specialties such as pickled cabbage, pork belly, blood sausage, and iron pot stew. • Afternoon: Visit Bawang Academy, Shenyang's oldest brick courtyard house, formerly a Qing Dynasty imperial school. Advance reservations are required for free admission. Here you can drink Liaoning tea, admire the ancient architecture, and experience the charm of traditional culture. • Evening: Visit the Old North Market, where there are rich folk cultural activities and a spectacular light show at night. Stroll through the night market, sample various snacks such as chicken frames and grilled cold noodles, and visit some intangible cultural heritage exhibition halls. • Accommodation: You can choose to stay near the Century Building for convenient travel and shopping. Day 3: Ice and Snow Fun & City Leisure • Morning: Head to Qipanshan Ice and Snow World, the largest ice and snow theme park in Northeast China, featuring over 30 ice and snow activities including ski slopes and ice dragon boat racing. Enjoy the fun of ice and snow sports and feel the passion of winter. • Lunch: Have lunch near Qipanshan or at a restaurant within the park. • Afternoon: Return to the city and visit Xita Korean Style Street, the largest Korean ethnic minority area in Northeast China. Even in winter, the streets are vibrant. You can browse Korean supermarkets, buy some specialty products, and taste authentic Korean cuisine such as ginseng chicken soup and bibimbap. • Evening: Enjoy dinner at a restaurant near Xita, concluding your enjoyable three-day, two-night trip.
