It's a very nice and unique zoo with good facilities and service. The children in the middle class had a lot of fun and gained a lot from the trip.

Shenyang Imperial Palace

M57***71
Having been to the Forbidden City in Beijing, I felt that although the Shenyang Palace Museum was small, it was not difficult to visit and it was not tiring to walk around. I felt that the Shenyang Palace Museum was the essence of the Beijing Palace Museum. The Forbidden City in early spring with fine weather is solemn and majestic under the sunlight. Strolling through it, the red walls, yellow tiles, carved beams and painted buildings, every brick and tile exudes a strong historical atmosphere. Well worth a visit

Thanks to the tour guide Guoliang for his professionalism, enthusiasm, and profound cultural and historical background. I benefited a lot from him. His professionalism touched me. I would like to express my deep gratitude here! I look forward to working with you again!

It is especially worth a visit. It is very good, very good, the scenery is very beautiful, and the tickets are not expensive. It is worth a visit. If you come to Dandong, you will regret it for the rest of your life. You will also climb to the highest point. 😎

Yalu River Broken Bridge

avatar
@.辉
As a tourist, the tour experience of the Yalu River Broken Bridge can be summarized by "the shock of history and scenery". The following evaluations from multiple angles: 1. The immersive history class stands on the broken bridge, mottled steel beams and dense bullet holes silently tell the smoke of fighting the United States and aid to the DPRK. Through the 30 historical photos hanging from the bridge and the unexploded bombs, it seems to cross the tragic scene of the volunteer army across the river, and touch the song and cry years at close range. Especially when the guide explained the details of the bridge break due to the bombing of the US military, the cruelty of war and the preciousness of peace contrasted strongly. 2. The unique border view from the broken bridge, the buildings of Xinyi City, North Korea, on the other side of the Yalu River, are clearly visible, and this experience of "one river view of two countries" is extremely rare in China. It is recommended to take a sightseeing boat (about 50 yuan/person) from the river to look up at the broken bridge, the visual impact of the two Yalu River Bridges juxtaposed together, and you can feel the dialogue between history and modern time and space. In the evening, the neon lights of the China-North Korea Friendship Bridge are intertwined with the silhouette of the broken bridge, which has a unique charm. 3. The convenient tour experience scenic spot adopts a smart ticketing system. After purchasing tickets online, you can enter the park by scanning the code or swiping your face for 3 seconds (the ticket is 30 yuan), avoiding the trouble of queuing 4. The bridge is laid with non-slip steel plates, and the whole journey can be completed in about 1 hour. There are Chinese, English and Korean three-language explanation cards along the way, and you can easily understand it freely. However, the river has strong ultraviolet rays, and it is recommended to wear a hat to protect the sun. 4. The surrounding linkage play bridge and Hushan Great Wall, Estuary Peach Garden and other attractions form a tourist line. In spring, you can enjoy 10,000 mu of peach blossoms (the best in mid-April), and see the red leaf maple forest in autumn to realize the combination of red education and natural scenery. Qiaotou also has Korean restaurant, cold noodles, cakes and other foods make the journey more abundant. Insufficient and reminding • There are many tourists on holidays, and the best shooting seats need to be queued • The bridge is windy, and the windproof and warm in winter • Some historical exhibition boards are slightly blurred. It is recommended to combine the voice guide (rent 20 yuan/table) overall, The Yalu River Broken Bridge is not only a must-check landmark for Dandong tourism, but also a living patriotic education base. It can not only meet the needs of photography enthusiasts, but also make teenagers feel history in the real scene, and it is worth spending half a day in depth to experience.

Tianmu Hot Spring

[Scenery] Very good for taking photos, very good for filming [Fun] The place is very large, with many private hot springs [Value for money] The hot spring ticket price is very affordable, and the accommodation is OK, mainly because of the good environment

Hot Spring Water Park

豆子之家
On the second day of the Chinese New Year, the heavy snow during the Spring Festival in Liaoning had just ended. We had to go to Wangershan Hot Spring Water Park in Yingkou Bayuquan to challenge the outdoor hot springs at minus ten degrees! It is very convenient to buy tickets online on Ctrip. You can verify the QR code on site. We came here to experience outdoor hot springs in winter. It takes a lot of determination to walk from indoors to outdoor hot springs. Although our first challenge today was a bit embarrassing, we were still very brave! Once you get used to it, you will find how comfortable it is to soak in hot springs outdoors after the snow! Let's try it now!

Bijia Mountain

Bijia Mountain is completely submerged by seawater when the tide rises. Locals call the road "Sky Bridge". A seaport was formed here due to the paving of the sea road. It has also become a famous scenic spot. On Xiaobijia Mountain, there are still remains of the Ming Dynasty lookout tower. A gravel road is also paved from the mountain to the coast. I was lucky to catch the tide and walk on the sky bridge, and I also encountered a rainbow 🌈

Fengguo Temple

M31***83
I have been entangled for a long time before coming, because the traffic is indeed a bit inconvenient. You have to go to Jinzhou-Yixian (train, bus, chartered car), and then take a taxi to Fengguo Temple. The return train time is inconvenient. The bus or taxi to Jinzhou, and then take the train back to your city. According to my own experience, in fact, it is very recommended to rent a car in Jinzhou, drive by car, Jinzhou has a car is also very convenient. 1. Arrive in Jinzhou one day in advance, you can go to the Liaoshen Battle Memorial Hall, Beishan Mountain or the Little Potala Palace, Guangji Temple and Liang Sicheng, Lin Huiyin designed the former site of Jiaotong University, etc. You can go shopping, you can eat Jinzhou barbecue at night, and visit Linghe Night Market. 2. If you can accept early in the morning, you can go to Shihezi Morning Market at 6 o'clock for a walk, and go to Jinzhou Station to Yixian after breakfast. 3. Yixian Station to Fengguo Temple 3km, to Wanfotang Grottoes about 18km, if the return journey is a train, in fact, it is very recommended to go to Wanfotang first, then visit Fengguo Temple, and finally return by train. 4. It is purely a coincidence to come to Fengguo Temple, listen to the midnight flight podcast, National Geographic endless Tibetan articles, b station up master did his homework, born in 1020 AD, now has spent the millennium of Fengguo Temple is the first of the existing eight major Liao structure, Zhang Shu "Yizhou Dafengguo Temple Renewed two holes of the holy title" Carved on the stone tablets and erected in the temple. The legend behind the topless national treasure is even more fascinating, and the most widely circulated one is: during the Battle of Liaoshen in 1948, an American shell pierced the roof of the Daxiong Palace of Fengguo Temple and fell directly into the hands of Sakyamuni Buddha. The 100% explosion rate of American shells did not explode, locals joked that the Buddha "hand-to-hand shells". Now the right arm of the Buddha statue of Sakyamuni can clearly see the traces of repair. I have to sigh that the ancients are superb. Several times, Fengguo Temple below the ground plane was undamaged and the drainage system was excellent... The store has been growing for two thousand years... In 2013, Wang Jiawei directed the movie "Generation Master" in Fengguo Temple Hall "Sitting upside down Guanyin" before the scene. In the movie, Zhang Ziyi played the female master palace, the second encounter life changes, under the Buddha statue, choose her own way. Just as the world asked "Why do Guanyin sit upside down, sigh that the world can't turn back", it is really wonderful. Sitting upside down on Guanyin "God of Eagles" Haidongqing is even more highlight. The murals in the hall are already unrecognizable. The yellow light and mottled murals, spanning thousands of years, tell people's pursuit of faith. I think, under the infinite entanglement, I can finally visit Fengguo Temple, as you have said before: some ancient buildings have the charm, only the presence can feel.
