There are many coastal cities in China. Dalian is a beautiful seaside city. I remember when I was in senior three, my classmates organized me to go to Dalian. My parents didn't allow me to go by plane. When my classmates came back, they told me that the seaside was beautiful and the seafood was fresh. It was worth visiting! Dalian has become one of the places I want to go, and is one of the Chinese seaside cities I must visit.
After discussing with Natalie baby, we decided the itinerary, bought air tickets and reserved hotels.
Spring Airlines and Pudong International Airport take off. The 11 a.m. flight. It's less than 1000.
The hotel chooses orange crystal hotel. Because Natalie stayed in Beijing on business and said the hotel was good. It is a high-end brand of orange crystal hotel group. At present, there are six hotels in Beijing, Nanjing, Dalian, Hangzhou, Shanghai and Yangzhou. Ctrip's offer is 388 yuan per night.
As Spring Airlines is a low-cost airlines, so the plane does not provide meals and drinking water. Meals can be purchased during more than three hours of flight. I didn't hold my breath for a moment. I bought a bag of dried bananas and a small bottle of drinking water for 15 yuan.
After getting off the plane, take the airport line to Zhongshan District, the ticket is 10 yuan. After coming down, I feel a little hungry. When I cross the road, I see pizza hut. It's time for afternoon tea. I'll push the door and enter! Two people each ordered a 35 yuan afternoon tea. 70 yuan for lunch and afternoon tea. Enough rest, go to the hotel checkin!
Orange crystal hotel:
50 Youhao Road, Zhongshan District. The hotel is located in downtown Dalian. It's around Paris in spring. It's five minutes' walk to the railway station! The transportation is super convenient. There is no breakfast in our room. We need to buy breakfast separately, 15 yuan / person. The decoration of the hall is simple and fashionable. The computer in the hall for customers to access the Internet is Apple's, and the room also has Apple's player! And free wifi.
The comfort of the room is 4 stars (because the room is too new and has a little taste, so a little point will be deducted); The equipment in the room, bathrobes, bath towels and slippers are all good, with 5 stars; The network speed is 5 stars;
Because it's a relaxing swim, there's no specific goal. 2 people after a small habitat after temporary discussion: decided to go to starfish square in the evening! Then go to a dark restaurant and have a barbecue.
Xinghai Square in the southern coastal scenic spot of Dalian:
1) The largest city square in Asia was originally an abandoned saltern in Xinghai Bay. The Xinghaiwan renovation project started on July 16, 1993. The municipal government reclaimed 114 hectares of land from construction waste and developed 62 hectares of land, forming the largest urban public square in Asia with a total area of 1.76 million square meters. The project was completed on June 30, 1997.
2) In the center of the square, there is the largest Chinese white jade watch in China, 19.97 meters high and 1.997 meters in diameter, to commemorate the return of Hong Kong to the motherland. The base and column body of the watch are decorated with nine dragons, implying that all the Chinese people in Kyushu are descendants of the Dragon. Following the example of the circular mound of the temple of heaven in Beijing, it is paved with 999 pieces of Sichuan Red Marble, on which the heavenly stems and earthly branches, 24 solar terms and 12 Chinese zodiac signs are carved. The nine cauldrons around are engraved with "long live the great unity of the Chinese nation", implying "nine cauldrons in one word".
3) The largest Xinghai Exhibition Center in Dalian. The view of turning on the lights at night is very good. There's not an hour you can't take for a walk here. With mountains around and sea behind, it's a smooth and open road. It's much more spacious than the science and technology road in front of the Shanghai Science and Technology Museum!
4) Dalian's characteristics, female cavalry (riding a white horse patrol police, it is said to be beauty): but we only see horses, rice have seen beauty police flower!
5) Xinghai Park is free of charge. In the evening, you can watch the sea breeze, play roller coaster, bumper car, Xuan Trojan horse and other entertainment items. The maximum unit price is no more than 15 yuan per time. Roller coaster sitting very happy, feel back to the childhood! The childlike innocence has been released!
The next morning, I got up and had breakfast at McDonald's in the pedestrian street beside the hotel. Then I set out to see the sea!
Jinshitan:
You can feel the amorous feelings of the gold coast in close distance. It is said that it is the back garden of Dalian and a national 5A scenic spot.
I asked the front desk how to get to the hotel in advance and arrived by taxi + Dalian Light Rail + battery car + walking.
There is no bad smell of salt water by the sea. It's cleaner. The beach is very big, so it seems that there are not many people. The coastline is at least three bus stops long. It's a dead person to walk by, so I walked for a while, hit and black car for a while. Anyway, two people 10 yuan a time, into the address park is called rent, just play good out of the time called. The black car market is really prosperous! Even the peddler will be a part-time agent to introduce the black car business!
Dalian Binhai National Geopark:
With the coastal zone geology and sea erosion landform as the main part, the stratotype section, biostratigraphic section and typical geological structure landscape as the auxiliary part, and the marine life and man-made landscape reflect each other, integrating sightseeing, vacation and leisure, summer vacation as a whole. 100 yuan per person.
The park covers an area of 64.50 square meters. The rocks in the park are formed in the Sinian and Cambrian geological landforms, sedimentary rocks and a large number of paleontological fossils from 800 million to 600 million years ago. They have created five natural scenic spots, including Jinshi garden, rose garden, dinosaur garden, nanxiu garden and Aotan garden. There are nearly 100 scenic spots in the park, which are full of life.
"Stone monkey watching the sea", "dinosaur exploring the sea", "Mirs spreading their wings", "Beethoven's head", "hedgehog foraging", "crab coming out of the hole"... Natural landscapes with different shapes are arranged from west to East, which are made by nature.
Choose seafood for lunch the next day! In the scenic spot, you can see many beaches selling seafood. Someone's eating live sea urchins, oysters or something. I look a little hungry.
I can't remember which seafood stall I was looking for. I can only vaguely remember that it was in front of a residential group and there were several restaurants lining up. Seafood is optional. We didn't order anything extra because it was too hot to walk. We just ordered scallops, sea urchins and conches. We also ordered ice cola, a vegetable and a bowl of rice. Natelie has a stomach problem. His stomach can't be empty. He should have some food at the bottom.
Sea urchins are eaten alive. It's my first time to see a living sea urchin. It's always fresh. I think it's better than the sea urchin in Japanese food store. It looks clean.
Grilled conch has a bit of sea smell, but dipped in a mixture of vinegar and soy sauce to eat is acceptable!
Scallop is always a big love, fresh of course, super delicious!
Dalian Russian style street:
Located in the northwest of the prosperous Shengli Bridge, also known as Tuanjie street, 38 buildings originally built in the Far East Belarus are preserved, which has a history of 100 years. It is the first street with Russian style of 19th and 20th century in China. The total length is 500 meters. It's the same feeling as Duolun Road in Shanghai, but it's always shabby. I feel like there's no place to take photos. The most domineering is the Red Square restaurant. It's just the past style, just the domineering exterior wall. If you want to feel the sky outside Moscow, you'd better go to authentic Russia! The miniature here is only a miniature! Even if the Internet said how good, he has been, also feel really not how ah! It's just a tourist attraction! Anyway, it's close to our hotel. It's OK to take a walk after dinner!
68-86 old restaurant:
I found the stores of Dalian folk time-honored brands in the comments. It is said that the food tastes good, homely and Dalian. So this store is one of the targets of the must go store. No.3, Shengsheng street, Zhongshan District
What's interesting is that this shop is really hard to find. It's in the residential area around the corner. Seven around eight around in his home around two circles still can't find, taxi driver said name heard, didn't take tourists to. Finally, I found it on the phone of the store. 19: There are still people waiting at 30, but not many, just three tables.
Take the strategy and order. Looking at the weight of a dish on other people's table, I was scared. We're going to waste it. 4 dishes to eat the feeling of vomiting ah! It seems that you can't be greedy in the North unless you are the king of big stomach!
In fact, the environment is really not so good. It's shabby. It looks like a family hotel with a long history. The window is the kind of house that I used to work in when I was a child, and there is glass on the table. There is no beautiful display. It's all a man's environment!
Dalian people's Square:
It is located in Xigang District of Dalian City, with a total area of 125000 square meters, of which the lawn area is 40000 square meters. This is the administrative and judicial center of Dalian. Dalian Municipal People's government, court, procuratorate and Public Security Bureau are located on the square.
In the center of the square, there are four large lawns, covering an area of 4 hectares. The green grass and pigeons walk leisurely in the square, with colorful flowers, making people enjoy themselves. Looking up at the sky in the square, you can always find all kinds of kites spinning high in the sky.
I was surprised to see the policewoman this time. But it's very far away. It's time for the shift. The old man with his grandson at play said that the policewoman's horses were pure and valuable horses bought from Europe. Later, the chairman of the Hong Kong Jockey Club was deeply moved when he saw Dalian's careful feeding and treatment of horses. He gave Dalian a group of world famous horses who had made great contributions to the horse racing industry. The female mounted police in Dalian basically graduated from undergraduate or even master's degree. They are good at fighting skills, which can be said to have both talent and appearance.
The blue sky and white clouds on the square, the classical architecture, the bright red national flag, the beautiful fountain, together with the fresh and tender green theme, interweave into a moving seven color brocade, which shines brightly in the Northern Pearl section. Beautiful!
Dadi spring cake shop:
696 Huanghe Road, Shahekou District (near Xi'an Road)
Spring cakes: five for each. At first glance, it's the bread of roast duck we ate! Wrapped with shredded cucumber, scallion, sweet flour sauce and chili sauce. It's hand-made and steamed. It's chewy!
Dadi Bacon: the house food here. It should be a kind of barbecued pork in the north. It's just the way it looks like meat and dry.
Beijing sauce shredded meat: the shredded meat is so thick, as thick as fingers. It's very strong. It's different from Shanghai. It's not sweet. It's authentic and thick!
The above dishes are almost a must for guests, with a click through rate of 96%. The store here is the same as the old Changmao in Shanghai. After paying the bill, the waiter will serve you with a small ticket. After eating, you can leave. There's nothing luxurious about the decoration, just a very common northern style.
Prana brewery:
B1 / F, Kempinski Hotel, 92 Jiefang Road, Zhongshan District
Natalie's recommended bar. But the day we went there was no live performance, just a week off. Too bad. The bar seems very quiet. But the taste of the German countryside is very strong. There are also two super large wine making cans on site!
We ordered a glass of beer each. The body is clear and the foam is clean and delicate. It is a typical Pearson beer style. No liveshow, just listen to music, play with photos, drink wine early back to the hotel to go to bed.
After checking out at noon on the last day, Holliday, who ran to Zhongshan Road, sang for three hours. Then I went to the opposite side and bought some seafood: shredded squid, dried fish fillets and dried fish floss. Then I went to the airport and took the flight back to Shanghai, just in time to go home for dinner!
It's easy to run out of holidays. Beautiful clouds and sunset on the plane. In fact, life should be so beautiful and colorful. Have a childlike innocence to see the world, have a good friend to accompany you on the journey to experience and share the beauty of the journey! Because every journey is unique, can't be copied, can't be repeated. There is only yesterday that we have experienced and tomorrow that we are about to take new steps!
