| In-depth travel + avoidance guide, collected by locals. Code for this! ️As a deep travel blogger who has been to Dalian several times, today I use my blood and tears experience to summarize this [Nanny-level strategy + avoidance list] to help you avoid 99% of minefields and experience the most authentic Bincheng romance. There are surprises everywhere here👇👇👇 🚫 A guide to avoiding pitfalls (blood and tears summary‼️‼️) 1️⃣ Traffic pits🙅 ❌ The city bus at 20 yuan per day is a good deal, but don’t believe the “sailing out to sea” promotion on the bus! The actual time out to sea is only 10 minutes! ! ✅ Taxis are the most convenient 🚗 (parking is difficult during the peak season for car rentals) ✅Use "Dalian e-Travel" to scan the code🚇 (direct access from the airport to the city center via Metro Line 2) ✅Take tram route 201 (old-fashioned green car), don't take the new tram by mistake 2️⃣ Attractions pits 🙅 👎 Least recommended: ❌ Bangchui Island ———It takes 20 minutes to walk from the gate of the scenic spot to the beach. The shuttle bus is 20 yuan one way, which is not worth it. If you want to go, you must wear comfortable shoes. ❌ Discover the Kingdom ———Queue for more than 2 hours on holidays, open at 9 am and go straight to the "Thunder Chariot" ❌Russian style street ———Man-made commercial street, both sides are selling "Russian small commodities" made in Yiwu, if you like the original Far East architecture and live nearby, you can go there to check in ⛰【Attractions Guide】 📍Click on the location to see the location of the scenic spot 👍Most Recommended: ✅ Fisherman's Wharf Fisherman's Wharf ———The best light for taking photos is after 4pm, avoid the backlight at noon ✅Xinghai Square Xinghai Square ———Feeding seagulls, coastal walkway, seaside cafe, children's playground, go-kart ✅Venice Water City Dalian Haichang Oriental Water City ———Go after the lights are on at night, but it is not recommended to take a boat. It is not a human-powered boat, and the boat speed is very fast. You can only see the scenery in a hurry, and the wind will blow on your face. ✅ In addition, there are: Jinshitan Geopark, Dalian Binhai National Geopark, Tram 201 (recommended "Huale Plaza-Sea Rhythm" retro section, Zhongshan Square, etc., you can go according to your preference 3️⃣ Season pit 🙅 ❌ The summer vacation from July to August is crowded and hotel prices have doubled! ❌ The wind at the seaside is very strong in winter, so be careful unless you are going there for skiing or hot spring bathing. ✅ The Lushun cherry blossoms in April, the sea of ​​​​fireflies in May/September, and the Ginkgo Avenue in October are the hidden ceilings ‼ ️ 4️⃣ Photo pit 🙅 ❌ The background of tourists' photos in Xinghai Square is messy. Go to the second floor of "Langba Cafe" to take a panoramic view of the cross-sea bridge ❌ Venice is not very special during the day, so be sure to wait until the lights are on (after 19:00 in summer) before taking photos ✅ Small-scale camera positions: Fuguo Park Fuguo Park mountaintop night view, Lingjiao Bay Lingjiao Bay (parking lot to take pictures of the Rainbow House at Fisherman's Wharf), Fisherman's Wharf Fisherman's Wharf, Lotus Hill Observation Deck Lotus Hill Observation Deck, Zhongshan Square Zhongshan Square (public check-in and take pictures) 🌟 Niche experience: ✅Get up early and go to Sunrise Plaza: Sunrise Plaza Watch the sunrise over the Yellow Sea, and you can take great photos with your mobile phone ✅Go to Zhongshan District Cultural Street: Dayin Cultural Street, buy vintage clothes, and drink a cup of "Magic Pot Coffee" hidden menu ✅Locals’ holy place for catching clams: Xiajiahezi Xiajiahezi Seaside Park, bring a small bucket to dig for clams (be sure to check the tide table!!) 🏡 Accommodation suggestions ✨ Pursuit of quality: Grand Hyatt Hotel Dalian Grand Hyatt Hotel (C position in Xinghai Square, great experience), Four Seasons Hotel Dalian, Conrad Dalian Conrad Hotel, Castle Hotel Dalian Yifang Castle Luxury Collection Hotel You can choose according to your preference and budget ✨The best value for money: chain hotels near Qingniwa Bridge/Xi'an Road subway station (such as All Seasons, Atour) ✨High-altitude sea view: Dalian Hengli Hotel Dalian Hengli Hotel (next to Venice Water City, the hotel is all high-altitude sea view, the view is invincible, and the cost performance is very high) ✨Literary Youth: Nanshan Style Street Old House B&B, Experience the Retro Style of the Republic of China
