Dalian

Located at the southern end of Liaodong Peninsula, Dalian extends along the shores of Yellow Sea and Bohai Sea across 12,574 square kilometers.

The settlement evolved from a fishing village named Qingniwa into a Russian-controlled commercial port in 1898, later experiencing Japanese administration until 1945.

The central district features European-style buildings around Zhongshan Square, while local restaurants serve regional seafood specialties from the surrounding waters.

The city maintains an efficient transportation network with buses, metros, and trams, connecting major districts and providing access to beaches and parks.

Dalian Forest Zoo spans extensive grounds where visitors can observe Northeast Asian wildlife through glass-bottom cable cars suspended above animal enclosures.
