Dalian, China Guide & Hotel Reservations from Cheap Hotels Worldwide
This young city, which is only 100 years old, holds much to see on your trip to the Orient. Dalian is located on the tip of China's Liaodong Peninsular and is sometimes referred to as the Hong Kong of Northern China. This city's history includes invasion by Russia and Japan, but is not under Chinese rule. Russia and Japan left their mark on this land when they divided it into squares and these squares are what makes this city so delightful to see in this present time. Anyone that visits this part of China will find that the climate is certainly visitor friendly all year around, but as with most of China it is densely populated.
After you have rested and eaten in one of the many accommodations and restaurants you will find here, it is time to start exploring what this great city has to offer. This city is made up of squares and you will find each one of them to be delightful. In these squares you will find artistic sculptures, lush lawns and western style fountains. These form the basis of the present city. You will also see women troopers patrolling each square.
Football and fashion go hand in hand in this city and both are very popular. Another event is the Dalian international Fashion Festival in which thousands of dazzling celebrities, designers, pop stars and clothing merchants get together to present the latest fashion. This also makes Dalian a shopper's dream with many boutique to choose from.
If you're a beach lover then you won't be disappointed with what Dalian offers in its 25-mile road which winds around the beaches, as you go through these roads you will find some very famous scenic spots that will leave you breathless.
