As a Dalian native, I can answer this question for you.
If we talk about life, then I can briefly introduce it from the aspects of food, clothing, housing and transportation.
Of course, since you just changed jobs, it is estimated that the problem of living should be solved by the company, so I won't introduce it.
clothes
The consumption in Dalian is a bit high, and the price is not cheap, so it is not cheap to wear naturally. If you want to buy clothes, then I suggest going to wholesale markets, such as what Dalian people call "big food markets" or even some morning markets. If it really doesn't work, you can go online, or go to some discount stores or even transfer stores to "stock up", and you should be able to find some cheap clothes.
Moreover, online shopping is so convenient now. You don't have to go to a physical store to buy clothes. You can buy clothes and mail them directly online.
eat
Dalian's specialty food is nothing more than seafood. This should be based on personal eating habits. In my opinion, squid, oysters and clams are all good seafood. You can try it when you have time.
If you stay in Dalian for half a year, you may catch up with crabs in September. You can also eat some crabs. Personally, I think sea crabs are more delicious than river crabs, with fat lids and flying crabs. In addition, shrimp crawlers are also very good.
Of course, I want to remind you that not everyone can enjoy seafood. Eating too much is easy to have diarrhea, so pay attention to cooking methods. In addition, eating seafood is best to eat garlic, which has the function of detoxification.
In terms of snacks, some snack streets in Dalian are quite good. Personally, I suggest you visit four food streets, one is the Central Plains food street near Qingniwa Bridge, the other is the food street near Dalian Jiaotong University, the third is the food street of Liaoning Normal University, and the fourth is the food street in Xi 'an Road business circle. The small shops in these four food streets are all very distinctive. If you want to eat something good, you should be able to go to these four food streets.
Besides seafood, you can also eat braised pork in Dalian, which is also very good.
However, for ordinary brunch, lunch and dinner, I suggest you find a shop around your home. You can order takeout once in a while.
line
I think the traffic in Dalian is still very convenient. There are more than 100 bus lines in Dalian, so it is very convenient to travel. Besides, there are subways and express trains in Dalian. You can even take the old tram and experience the ancient customs.
Want to do a bus card, Dalian has a Pearl card, and all buses in the city can take it.
If you need to take a taxi in case of emergency, taxis in Dalian usually start during the day 10 yuan, within 3 kilometers 10 yuan; At night1from 3 yuan, within 3km 13 yuan. Dalian also has a network car, you can also call a car.
If you can't find the way in the city, generally ask sanitation workers, traffic police, etc. They will help you. Even ordinary Dalian citizens will tell you enthusiastically. But now that technology is developed, if you make good use of Baidu and Gaode, you hardly need to ask for directions.
As a big city, Dalian will also encounter traffic jams. However, traffic jams in Dalian are generally traffic jams during rush hours. After the peak, the general traffic conditions will be much better.
However, due to the undulating terrain and lack of planned bicycle lanes in Dalian, there are few cyclists in Dalian.

Of course, since I have been in Dalian for half a year, it is inevitable to relax in my spare time. Besides, Dalian is also a tourist city with many tourist attractions worth visiting.
Most scenic spots in Dalian are free, only the Forest Zoo, Shengya Sea World and its related scenic spots, Laohutan Ocean Park and its related scenic spots, and Shell Museum are free. You should bring enough money with you for these scenic spots.
It's April, which is almost the tourist season. If you want to go, you'd better go quickly.
The night view of Dalian is also beautiful. If you have time, you can go and see it after dinner in the evening. Zhongshan Road and Xinghai Square are very good.
In addition, there are many free attractions in Dalian, such as museums, Xinghai Square, Oriental Water City in Donggang Business District, Xinghai Park and Binhai Road. At the same time, cherry blossoms are in full bloom at the end of April, so I suggest you go to Lushun. There are many strategies on the Internet, you can check them.
If you come to Dalian recently and live in Dalian for the first half of the year, you can take part in the marathon, international hiking conference, locust appreciation meeting and beer festival in Dalian.
Of course, the most important thing is that you can go to the sea in July and August and swim in Dalian in a swimsuit. If you can't swim, it's good to watch and play by the sea.
The above is my introduction to your life in Dalian. You can ask me if you don't understand. I will try my best to answer your question.
Welcome to live in Dalian. From April, it is the best season in Dalian. I have been studying and working in Dalian for 20 years when the climate is most comfortable. I may be a little narcissistic. I feel less comfortable than Dalian. Air conditioning is rarely turned on in summer (except last summer).
Seeing that you are engaged in airport work, the existing airport in Dalian is in the urban area, and the other airport under construction is at the seaside.
Cherry blossoms are about to bloom, then cherries, then peaches, and all kinds of fruits come down one after another. Come and experience it.
Let me talk about it from these aspects: clothes, Dalian has long had the saying "corn belly, material pants", which shows that Dalian people attach importance to wearing and Dalian people's taste. The price in Dalian is high and the clothes are not cheap. If you only come for half a year, the impact on you will be negligible. Food, Dalian is rich in food, but there are few local specialties. Seafood is Dalian people's favorite food, but the price is very expensive. Sichuan-style, Chongqing hot pot, Japanese-style and Korean-style dishes are more common, and pasta and small restaurants can be seen everywhere in the streets, which are cleaner, healthier and cheaper. Yes, the traffic in Dalian is quite developed. There is everything in the sky and underground, and the traffic jam on the ground in the morning rush hour is serious. Living, the rent in the city center is higher. House prices in the suburbs are not low either. Dalian has beautiful scenery and good people. People in Dalian welcome you.
Isn't it great that wages are low, prices are high and traffic is heavy, and there are many foreigners doing business, and almost all of them are foreigners?
Can you still find places with low prices in the country now? Apart from the wages of several cities in the north, Guangzhou and Shenzhen, how much higher are the wages in those cities than in Dalian? Dalian is not bad. Bus fares in most cities in China are already two yuan, while Dalian is still one yuan. Going to southern cities to see their local fruits is more expensive than Dalian, what's more, the price of apples is generally 2-3 times that of Dalian, and the price of vegetables is different from Dalian. Prices in Dalian are not expensive at all. Don't listen to rumors, a large part of them are conformity and incompetence. Even if you go to the north, Guangzhou and Shenzhen, your salary is low and you will complain.
Friends welcome you to work in Dalian for half a year. You came to Dalian just across autumn and winter. Dalian is crisp in autumn and pleasant in climate. The autumn wind blowing from the sea is refreshing. The winter in Dalian is warm and pleasant, and the temperature is mostly around zero to MINUS ten degrees. You must not tremble. When you leave Dalian, spring will send you back to your hometown. Dalian is a clean and sanitary city. Dirty, messy and poor things are common in cities, but rare. The traffic in Dalian is developed. City bus, subway, light rail and taxi can take you anywhere you want, but one thing must be told. Cars are sometimes seen in Dalian, and traffic jams are even serious in some sections. In addition to seafood, Dalian's diet has a little local characteristics, and Shandong cuisine also has a little influence in Dalian, because most people in Dalian are immigrants from Shandong. So Dalian has the characteristics and personality of Shandong people. Dalian is in the northeast, and the language is mostly Jiaodong dialect. The price in Dalian is relatively high in the whole country, but compared with the developed cities in the Yangtze River Delta and the Pearl River Delta, it can still be said that the wages in Dalian are different from those in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou, and are in line with the prices in the same region. Although Dalian is not an ancient city, it has left many historical sites, especially Dalian in modern history. The above are just some feelings of a Dalian person living in this city, for you to understand the Dalian exam.
I can live well with a monthly income of more than 6 thousand. The average rent in Zhongshan is 2000+, and cooking by yourself is 2000+ a month. Living in Dalian for six years, basically cooking by myself, accounting for 70%, ranging from 1, 500-2,500 a month. I buy beef and seafood every week, and vegetables are more expensive. One yuan for the bus, two yuan for the subway and ten yuan for the taxi. Driving to work, plus parking fee 1000, bus and subway rental 200 is not needed. There are also cheap rentals. I found a slightly bigger one, rented by a colleague, 1560 yuan, which is not bad.
What do you mean, how's life? Such a general question is not easy to answer. Girls in Dalian look better than girls in ordinary places (Dalian dialect means fashionable), and the seafood in Dalian is more delicious than that in ordinary places in China (can't you see that Dalian seafood is marked everywhere), and the streets in Dalian are cleaner than ordinary places. Summer in Dalian is cooler than in other places (not this year, it is very hot). Compared with other places, the wages in Dalian are not high, and the prices in Dalian are slightly more expensive. The traffic in Dalian is more crowded than in many cities. The house price in Dalian is not high or low, and the northeast character of Dalian people is obvious, bold and talkative ... What else do you want to know?
