Just like any other city there are international shopping stores , restaurants like KFC, McDonald, Pizza Hut .etc., Minios, Wanda Plaza and many others so you don’t need to worry about anything. I found that the people in this city are quite warm and welcoming to foreigners which is a huge plus. #spring #coastalcity #mountainview #beachlife #passionpassport

In part of the old Lianyungang train station is a museum to the railway line and station itself. This station was once very important for goods to and from the port as well as tourists visiting the city. There are still some fast trains which run from the station. The museum itself is very thoughtful with some interesting exhibits. For example, some stories and history of the railway workers in Lianyungang and some photos of the station in past years. There is also an interesting exhibit about China’s fast train network and its impact. In May holiday the museum was completely empty and the staff member managing the museum was very helpful and friendly. Lianyungang train museum is a good choice to do something a little different and cultural in the city apart from just the beach.

I must say my first trip to Lianyungang City in Jiangsu Province was an awesome experience. The weather was cool and the people were warm and friendly.

Lianyun Old Street faces the sea and faces the sea. The head is the verdant Yuntai Mountain, and the distant view is the blue sea. The old-fashioned buildings on both sides of the old stone bluestone road and the two rows of lush French paulownia in front of the house. This quiet and retro street witnessed the rise of Dagang and imprinted the past and present of a city. Walking in the old street, I can't feel the vicissitudes and weights, and I feel relaxed and happy. Take a circle in the streets and lanes, big hostels, cinemas... every one is like a movie still.
