🌊🌞🚢🦑🍻 Dalian in May—cool sea breeze and perfect sunshine! This northern coastal city, surrounded by the sea on three sides, is a natural oxygen bar, and even the air has a salty and fresh taste. Its geographical location is excellent, with high-speed rail directly to the urban area and the airport only a 20-minute taxi ride from the city center! This super detailed guide will show you how to experience the essence of Dalian in 3 days! 📅 Day 1: Coastal Scenery Walking Tour 🌅 Morning: Feed Seagulls at Xinghai Square A must-visit Dalian landmark! Arrive before 9am for fewer crowds and more seagulls. Bring your own breadcrumbs or buy some there (CNY 5/bag). Watch the seagulls swoop down to grab food—it's super exciting! The Shell Museum (free to view from the outside) next to the square looks like a giant conch shell, perfect for photos! 🌞 Noon: Hike on the Binhai Road Start from Xinghai Square and walk east along the boardwalk! I recommend the section from Jinshatan Beach to Yinshatan Beach. The seawater is as blue as jelly. Along the way, you'll find scenic viewing points. Set up your phone stand, turn your back to the sea, and take 100 photos! 🌙 Evening: Donggang Music Fountain The show starts promptly at 19:30! The fountain dances to the symphony, with water jets reaching up to 50m high! The nearby Venice Water City is incredibly dreamy after dark. Take a gondola ride (CNY 60/person) and pretend you're in Europe. 🏰 Day 2: Journey Through a Century of History 🌅 Morning: Lushun Sun Valley Take Metro Line 12 directly there! The streets are lined with Russian-style buildings and cherry blossom trees (there are still late-blooming cherry blossoms in May!). Don't miss the Lushun Museum (free, 9:00-16:00). The century-old ginkgo tree at the entrance has amazing light and shadow. 🌞 Noon: Chuang Guandong Film and Television Base A recreation of a Republican-era street! Take a rickshaw (CNY 30/hour) or rent a cheongsam (CNY 50/set) to travel back in time! The "Little Red Building," a filming location for "The Message," has hidden rooms and secret passages—it's thrilling! 🌙 Evening: Zhongshan Square Night View Eight European-style buildings surround a circular square, which transforms into a "Little Paris of the Orient" when lit up at night! I recommend the Dalian Hotel 1914 rooftop bar. Order a Sea Salt Mojito and enjoy the panoramic view of the city lights. 🎡 Day 3: Sea, Land, and Air Fun 🌅 Morning: Haida Cable Car Mountain and Sea Views Take the cable car (one-way CNY 60) from the south gate of the Forest Zoo! The transparent cabins fly over Lianhua Mountain, with green forests below and blue seas above. You'll be clicking your camera non-stop! 🌞 Noon: Fresh Seafood at Fisherman's Wharf Fishing boats sell fresh seafood right at the wharf! I recommend the spicy stir-fried abalone (CNY 98/serving) at Pinhailou—it's so tender and chewy! After lunch, take a stroll among the colorful houses and pet the chubby orange cats at the wharf. 🌙 Evening: Discovery Kingdom Luminous Parade (The evening ticket is a great value at CNY 99!) Enter the park after 18:00 to avoid the scorching sun! Don't miss the "Thunderbolt" roller coaster—it's a thrill to be suspended upside down and rush into the night! At 20:30, the luminous floats light up, and you can dance and party until the park closes. 🔥 Must-Visit TOP 5 1️⃣ Shengya Ocean World 🐋 Features: 118m underwater tunnel! Sharks swim overhead, and the "Dolphin Bay Lovers" show at 2pm is worth the ticket price! ⏰ Time: 9:00-17:00 💰 Ticket: CNY 240 2️⃣ Bangchui Island 🏝️ Free! The beach where Chairman Mao swam! Walking barefoot on the pebble beach is so relaxing. Bring a tent, have a picnic, and watch the seagulls fight. 3️⃣ Jiaoda Night Market 🍢 Opens at 18:00!

The green, retro tram clangs through the streets and alleys. Open the window in the back seats and film a vlog! 🏨 Hotel Recommendation: Grand Hyatt Dalian 📍 Location: Prime spot at Xinghai Square! The room's floor-to-ceiling windows face the cross-sea bridge. 🌟 Highlights: 48th-floor sky pool! Swim under the stars at night, and the breakfast includes fresh sea urchin sashimi! 🚌 Transportation Recommendations and Warnings ✅ Recommendation: No. 16 double-decker bus! The front seats on the second floor offer a panoramic view of the coastline. ❌ Warning: Don't take a taxi to the train station! Taxi drivers are known for taking long detours. It's more reliable to use a ride-hailing app. ⚠️ Lifesaving Tips The UV rays at the seaside are strong! Sunscreen, a hat, and sunglasses are essential! The seawater is still cold in May, so bring a windbreaker! Keep an eye on the scale when buying seafood! Poke holes in the plastic bag beforehand to drain the water. 🍜 Foodie Radar Activated!

## Dalian Travel Guide: A Confession From a Traveler Who Was Blown Away by the Wind and Fed by Seafood My friends, I just got back from Dalian, and my mind is still filled with the cries of seagulls, the aroma of seafood, and... the painful memory of my hair being styled into a "Mei Chaofeng" look by the sea wind. But I have to say, this "Pearl of the North" is truly captivating! --- ### 【Transportation】How to Get to This "Seafood Paradise"? ✈️ Airplane: Dalian Zhoushuizi International Airport is very close to the city center, a 30 yuan taxi ride will get you there (don't let the driver take you for a ride). 🚄 High-speed Rail/Train: Dalian Railway Station and Dalian North Railway Station offer convenient access to various destinations (it's recommended to book tickets in advance, especially during peak season). 🚗 Self-driving: Ideal for exploring the coastal highway, but Dalian has many one-way streets, and the navigation might get confused even more than you. --- ### 【Attractions】Must-See Spots in Dalian, No Regrets! 1. Xinghai Square (Free) - The largest city square in Asia, with more seagulls than tourists (beware of "bird droppings from the sky"). - Must-do: Feed the seagulls (they'll catch food mid-air, with skills even better than your boyfriend/girlfriend). - Stunning night view, perfect for taking "pretend you're in Europe" photos. 2. Binhai Road (Free) - A paradise for hikers, spanning over 20 kilometers (it's okay to take a taxi halfway if you're tired, no shame in that). - Recommended section: Fujiazhuang → Laohutan, the breathtaking sea view will make you forget your 9-to-5 grind. 3. Laohutan Ocean Park (Tickets: 220 yuan) - Perfect for bringing kids or pretending you're a kid yourself, watch penguin and dolphin shows (be prepared to get splashed). - Avoid: Don't buy food inside, it's expensive and not tasty (bring your own snacks, you smart cookie). 4. Jinshitan (Partially free, Geological Park: 70 yuan) - Strange-shaped rocks, like building blocks randomly thrown by giants (posting photos on social media will get people asking if you're abroad). - Golden Pebble Beach is perfect for lying down, but the sand is a bit coarse (bring a mat). 5. Venice Water City (Free) - Pretend you're in Italy, but actually in Dalian (great for photos, but don't expect the real Venice experience). - The lights at night create a romantic atmosphere (single people beware, it might be a bit much). --- ### 【Food】Coming to Dalian and Not Eating Seafood Is a Waste! 1. Seafood Barbecue (60-100 yuan/person) - Recommended dishes: Grilled squid, garlic scallops, steamed eggs with sea urchin (freshness overload). - Restaurant recommendations: - "Lost a Shoe" (weird name, but amazing taste). - "Man Ting Xiao Zhai" (popular with locals, great value). 2. Mentiao (5-10 yuan/serving) - A Dalian specialty snack, starch jelly + sesame paste + garlic sauce (you'll fall in love after one bite, don't miss it). - Recommended place: Erluchezhan Xiaowanzi (a time-honored brand, a must-try for tourists). 3. Sea Urchin Dumplings (50-80 yuan/person) - So fresh you'll want to sing, "Chuan Ge Yu Shui Jiao" is a popular spot (be prepared to queue). 4. Traditional Dalian Cuisine (40-70 yuan/person) - Recommended dishes: Guobaorou (sweet and sour pork), Sanxian Mentiao (three-delicacy mentiao), Fish-flavored Shrimp (carb overload, but worth it). - Restaurant recommendation: "Mou Chuanren Lao Cai Guan" (a local favorite). --- ### 【Accommodation】Budget Travelers, Look Here! 🏠 Hostels/B&Bs (50-120 yuan/night) - Recommended areas: Zhongshan Square, Xi'an Road (convenient transportation, vibrant nightlife). - Avoid: Be cautious about small hotels near the train station, the soundproofing might be so bad that you'll hear everything going on. 🏨 Budget Hotels (150-250 yuan/night) - Home Inn, Hanting (clean and worry-free, suitable for those who want to avoid unpleasant surprises). --- ### 【Tips to Avoid Pitfalls】Lessons Learned the Hard Way! 1. Don't eat seafood at tourist spots, it's expensive and not worth it. Go to the market and pick your own for a better experience. 2. May to October is the best time to visit, the wind in winter is strong enough to make you question your life choices. 3. Seagulls are aggressive, be careful when feeding them (don't ask me how I know). 4. Dalian's public transportation is very convenient, no need to take taxis all the time (unless you want to experience the driver's "Initial D" skills). --- ### 【Final Blow】 During my 4 days in Dalian, my stomach went through: Seafood → Barbecue → Mentiao → Carb Explosion → "Just one last bite" Now that I'm home, nothing tastes as fresh - I think I'm addicted to Dalian seafood. So, do you want to gain a few pounds too? 🦀🍻 (Remember to bring digestive aids!)
