Dalian Zhoushuizi International Airport, International airport in Ganjingzi District, Dalian, China.
Dalian Zhoushuizi International Airport is a major aviation hub serving Northeast China and the Liaoning province with modern facilities. The airport includes terminals, runways, and hangars spread across a large area to handle daily flight operations.
The airport was founded in 1927 as a Japanese airfield and evolved from its early use into a modern aviation facility. The site was later expanded and modernized to meet the region's growing air traffic needs.
The name Zhoushuizi comes from the area's past as a marsh, and this geography shaped how the region developed over time. Walking around the airport, you can still sense the flat landscape that once defined this place.
The airport sits about 10 kilometers northwest of downtown Dalian and connects easily via Metro Line 2 and multiple bus routes. Travelers should check which transit option works best for their arrival or departure plans.
