- Dalian, China -

Dalian city is located in the south of Liaoning and borders the Yellow Sea to the east, the Bohai Sea to the west, Anshan to the north, Yingkou to the northwest and Dandong to the northeast. It is an important port, trade, industry and tourism city.

Dalian is more like a coastal city in southern China as it does not have temperatures as low as -30 ℃ (-22 ℉) in winter and the summer heat here is not so intense thanks to the gentle sea breeze. It also boasts long coastlines, fantastic sea views, sun-kissed beaches, holiday resorts and coastal parks. A variety of exotic streets and countless century-old European buildings in Zhongshan Square add more charm to Dalian. The old trams still running on the street slowly pass through the city, connecting numerous landmark squares, while also symbolizing an era. The best time to visit Dalian is from May to September. Fishing and tasting the best fresh seafood from September to October are the most satisfying things to do.
