As deep autumn arrives, you can enjoy an autumn-exclusive citywalk in Dalian. This route is simply romantic. Labor Park - Nanshan Road - Nanshan Style Street - Dalian Botanical Garden, walking leisurely with stops for photos, you can capture many beautiful autumn scenes. Nanshan Road is a popular spot to admire ginkgo trees. Take the bus to Children's Park West; on the left side of the Wind-Chasing Post Office 🏤, the entire street is lined with ginkgo trees. The golden ginkgo leaves and the fallen leaves covering the street embody autumn romance, adding another touch to Dalian’s autumn charm. At a corner independent café, order a hand-brewed coffee ☕ and sit by the floor-to-ceiling window watching the light filtering through the plane tree leaves, casting dappled shadows. Nanshan Style Street, a 700-meter golden corridor, perfectly blends European architecture with ginkgo leaves.

Dalian Travel The 3-night, 4-day trip to Dalian was a perfect blend of beachside relaxation, culinary exploration, and the vibrant energy of the city. On the first day, the journey began with a stroll along Fujiazhuang Beach, enjoying the sea breeze. The visit to Bangchui Island was memorable for its serene atmosphere and expansive ocean views, while the shimmering silver sands and blue waves at Yinshatan Beach created an exotic ambiance. Food exploration was an essential part of the trip. Visiting popular local restaurants such as Xizheng, Wanghejie, Xigadeng, and Shangxianlou allowed us to savor a variety of seafood and dishes. The fresh ingredients and rich flavors provided an authentic taste of Dalian's culinary culture. Additionally, a walk through Dalian's iconic Xinghai Square offered stunning views where the open sea meets the cityscape. During the day, the lively urban atmosphere was captivating, while at night, the dazzling lights reflecting on the water created an unforgettable scene. This itinerary, filled with the refreshing charm of the sea, the richness of local cuisine, and the vibrancy of the city, was a well-rounded 3-night, 4-day journey that showcased the allure of Dalian.

Who knows! Every sunset in Dalian feels like a kiss from the sea~ I just returned from this coastal city with its own background music and compiled a 4-day, 3-night immersive guide, with the seaside filter turned all the way up! 🏙️ [Where to stay?] ✔️Xi'an Road business district is really great! It's 10 minutes to the subway, and a taxi to Xinghai/Venice costs only about 15 RMB. I highly recommend a room with a view of the neon night scene from the window. Watching the traffic on the cross-sea bridge at night is super healing~ 📸️ [Healing moments by the sea] ▫️Xinghai Square: Wait for an orange soda-flavored sunset, chase kites along the coastline, and there's an old man singing "Ode to the Sea, My Hometown" under the lighthouse. ▫️Fisherman's Wharf: Blue and white houses + orange sunset = pretending to be in Greece! Buy 10 RMB of squid on the shore to feed the seagulls, the sound of their wings flapping is super healing. ▫️Lingjiaowan: Hidden spot! Walk the boardwalk at low tide at 5pm, seaweed and shells bloom into impressionist paintings in the cracks of the rocks. ⛰️ [Climbing warning] Bloody lesson learned👉 Haizhiyue Park doesn't look big, but it's all uphill! I doubted my life walking in canvas shoes... Bangchuidao requires a ticket, but the beach is soft and fluffy. I recommend renting a parasol and lying down for an afternoon. 🍜 [Feeding guide] ✅Xinghai Square "Yi Xian Yi Jiao": The sea urchin dumplings burst with yellow when you bite into them! The shrimp dumplings hide a whole Liaodong sea cucumber. ✅Xi'an Road "Nuomixiang": 38 RMB crab roe pan-fried buns, be warned of the golden soup that bursts out when you bite into them! ✅Venice Water City "Rich&Liberty": 100 RMB per person for the atmosphere, the window seat has the cross-sea bridge as a backdrop, and the steak is cooked just right. ❌Avoid: The Russian cuisine in Russian Style Street has small portions and high prices. It's better to buy a 5 RMB grilled cold noodle at the entrance of Labor Park. 🚣 [Photo eggs] • Lotus Mountain Viewing Platform: Wait at 4pm, the golden sunlight will dye the cross-sea bridge honey-colored. • Nanshan Street "Detective Conan": Japanese izakaya facade + warm yellow lights, wear a knitted sweater and hold a glass to take great photos in seconds. • Xinghai Bathing Beach Boardwalk: At low tide, the sea water dances in the cracks of the wooden boards, and the low-angle shots of the sea foam are super dreamy. 🌅 [Sunset Timetable] April: 17:30-18:00 golden hour May: 18:30-19:00 gradient pink, purple and blue Tips: After taking photos of the sunset, go to Xi'an Road Night Market to buy three boxes of grilled scallops for 20 RMB. The aroma of garlic can drift half a street! It turns out that the filming location of the "Seaside Boy" MV really exists! Those fishing boats dyed red by the sunset, the pebbles wet by the waves, and the salty taste in the sea breeze are all hidden in the cracks of Dalian~ This summer, you must go to see a live show about the sea, right? 🎤✨

May in Dalian is absolutely stunning! The temperature is just right, seafood is abundantly available, and there's no summer crowd crush. This is the perfect time to visit Dalian. I stayed up late to compile this 5-day Dalian travel guide—recommend liking and saving it, then just copy my homework and you're all set! 🌟Must-Visit Attractions Xinghai Square: Asia's largest city square. You must feed the seagulls, view the cross-sea bridge, and watch the musical fountain at night—it's spectacular! When I was there, sunshine sparkled on the water surface, creating a shimmering effect as seagulls circled overhead. It was truly therapeutic. Binhai Road: Strongly recommend renting a bicycle and riding along Binhai Road, with mountains on one side and the sea on the other—the scenery is breathtaking! Spots like Fujiazhuang and Bangchui Island along the way will make you stop and admire for ages. Tiger Beach Ocean Park: A must-visit with kids! The beluga whale and dolphin shows at the Polar Museum are amazing, and the Coral Museum with its colorful corals and small fish feels like stepping into a fairy tale.

The street is filled with Russian-style architecture, and you can buy various specialty souvenirs like nesting dolls and chocolates—you'll be spoiled for choice.

Dalian Labor Park I visited Dalian Labor Park in early November, and the autumn atmosphere was palpable. The ginkgo trees planted throughout the park had turned yellow, making it a great spot for photos and allowing me to fully experience the change of seasons during my walk. The park is structured with a slight incline, and as you ascend, you get a clear view of Dalian city, offering a great vantage point. It was relatively quiet, possibly because it was a weekday afternoon, and I only occasionally saw people quietly enjoying a walk or resting under the trees. While there are no special facilities, it is a space where you can enjoy the natural atmosphere at your leisure. Despite being close to the city center, it doesn't feel bustling, making it a great park for a short break. It was an autumn destination I would love to visit again.

#chinatravel Seriously packed with Chinese retirees from the early morning onwards. They're singing 🎤, dancing 💃, taking pics with flowers 🌸, or just strolling. Basically, living their best lives! The park is pretty huge – think ponds, little waterfalls, bridges, pavilions, AND a massive red-and-white sphere. 🌍 Cherry blossoms everywhere, lilacs too, and get this – PEONIES blooming in early May! 🌷 Unreal. Honestly? I'm a total slow-paced visual kinda gal. Wandering a beautiful spot and snapping a thousand pics? That's a solid 10/10 for me. 📸✨ Right next door is the TV Tower – another epic Dalian viewpoint. Hop on the cable car to get up top! 🚡 For the way down, either ride the cable car back or... zoom down on the alpine coaster! 🎢 🔖 How to get there: Metro: Blue Line 2 to Qingniwaqiao OR Red Line 5 to Qingniwaqiao or Labor Park. The park borders Nanshan Road – a super cute street packed with cool bars and cafes (some are super instagrammable!). ☕🍸 Walk down Nanshan Rd for about 15-20 mins, and you'll hit Childhood Park 👧🧒 📍 Labor Park Show taxi driver: 勞動公園 Follow me for more in Trip/Telegram @stran_nasti #dalian #china

📍Labor Park 🎫Free admission I went to Labor Park yesterday afternoon. Although the trees and grass were still bare, the peach blossoms in several areas were in full bloom. The peach blossoms around the football landmark are the most beautiful, tall and lush, suitable for both wide shots and close-ups. From this location, you can also use the peach blossom branches as a foreground to capture the big football and Dalian Sightseeing Tower in the background. The remaining peach blossoms are more scattered, with one branch here and one tree there. You can wander around to find beautiful flowers. The last few photos were taken at Tree Summer Coffee near the west gate of Labor Park. This location has a fresh vibe with peach blossoms and a small wooden house coffee shop. Many girls come here to take photos. 📷Fujifilm xs20

Laodong Park was built in the 1960s for the factories in the western suburbs. After decades of wind and rain, Laodong Park has long become an inseparable old friend and brother of the workers in the old factories in the western suburbs. When I was a child, my mother often took me to various parks to play. I didn't like Laodong Park very much because I always wanted to go to Xingqing Park and Beifang Amusement Park. I passed by a few days ago and came in to have a look. It has changed a lot. I haven't been here for more than 20 years, and the flowers are blooming beautifully. Today's Laodong Park is a good place for leisure and exercise. Dancing, playing music, kicking shuttlecocks, and cooling off in the summer... It adds a lot of joy.
