Both of us have been having a rough time recently, so we decided to go out for some relaxation. Going to Dalian was not a planned move. It was all decided by my best friend Wang. She originally planned to go to Dalian during the Dragon Boat Festival, but later she changed her plan to come to Beijing.
I, seeing that she made a special trip to Beijing, I won’t care about where she goes to relax, so I can make up for her hard work, hahaha.
Mr. Wang had to go to work and it was hard to ask for leave. He worked hard and managed to get the three-day holiday from June 15th to 17th. In line with the principle of saving time and saving budget, he decisively purchased the first morning and the third day.
For the return ticket in the evening, she departed from Zhengzhou and I departed from Xi'an. The air ticket was more than 100 yuan cheaper than mine. I'm so happy~ Before I came to Dalian, my impression of this place was just a coastal city in the Northeast. I have been there so famously
In big seaside cities such as Sanya, Xiamen, and Qingdao, I actually don’t have much expectations for Dalian, so I can just wander around.
It was this city that didn't give me any expectations, but it gave me a huge surprise. Although my stay was short, I fell in love with this place.
Both of our best friends bought air tickets at around 7 a.m., she left from Zhengzhou and I left from Xi'an. At 9:50 a.m., we officially met and started our trip to Dalian.
Cost details Air ticket: 800 yuan/person Hotel: 300 yuan/person (two-night stay) Attraction tickets: 355 yuan/person (we only went to three paid attractions, including tickets for Tiger Beach + Strange Stone Pavilion + Fantasy Experience)
Other expenses: 309 yuan/person (we spend a lot on meals and have been taking taxis these days. If we take public transport and eat simpler, we can save a lot) Total cost: 1800 yuan/person All pictures
All taken on: iPhone Random Thoughts: Dalian is indeed a combination of a northeastern city and a seaside city. I don’t even feel the heat in the summer. Wearing a thick cardigan and pantyhose, I actually feel extremely cool. I recommend you to go to Dalian.
You should bring a thin jacket. It can be worn as a sun protection shirt during the day. It is not hot at all and can keep you warm in the evening. If possible, wear a long skirt and long trousers. Dalian is really cold~ It is said to be a 3 days and 2 nights trip.
In fact, our journey started at around 5pm on the first day (¬_¬) Because we had to catch the 7am flight, we got up at around 3am to pack up and prepare to leave. After arriving in Dalian, we sat for another half an hour.
It took an airport bus + an hour of light rail to finally get to where we were staying. The B&B near Golden Pebble Beach was equivalent to a theme hotel. Let me show you the room we stayed in.
The room looks similar to the picture. It is retro, cute, and warm. The effect of mixing these styles together is quite surprising. Because the light in the room is a bit dark, the photo has been adjusted with the filter function of Meitu Xiuxiu.
After all, the room itself is very nice.
We live near the Gold Coast, and it costs 9 yuan to take a taxi. We got up too early in the morning, and spent the whole morning getting to where we were staying. We agreed to rest for a while, but when we woke up, it was past 5pm (?ω
?)!
Get up quickly and go out to play at the beach~ The Golden Coast of Jinshitan is particularly beautiful, and more importantly, there are few people. Unlike other seaside cities that are full of bustling people, when we arrived at the beach at 5 or 6 pm, there were basically no people.
, taking seascape photos here is very enjoyable. After taking the photo, you can simply adjust the color with your mobile phone and then create a circle. There is no need for post-processing to remove the people around you. This is great.
I remember when I was in Sanya in February, the bustling people on the entire Yalong Bay beach were not in the mood to take pictures at all.
It was so cool to take photos at the beach with no people around. After wandering for two hours, it was late at night, and the sea breeze was cool and a bit cold. Our stomachs began to protest, so we decisively left the beach to look for food.
~ We came here first on the first day of our trip to Dalian~ In view of the painful lesson of sleeping in hotels all the time during our trip to Beijing, this time we decided to seriously visit Dalian. We got up early in the morning to plan the route and went for a stroll.
Jinshi Cultural Expo Plaza, Address Museum, Strange Stone Museum, Fantasy Experience Center, Wax Museum, etc. are all here. If you have enough time, you can buy a combo ticket and spend most of the day here. It costs about 160 yuan on Meituan. We specially
I called and asked. There is no need to book in advance. You can just buy the ticket before going in. It costs 240 yuan to buy the ticket on the spot. Meituan is still a good deal.
