Romantic City of

China—Dalian

DALIAN

Dalian is a major city and seaport in China, with a coastline of

1,906 kilometers. It has mild climate which never boils in

summer and never freezes much in winter. So Dalian gets the

nickname of “the window of northeast China”, ”the pearl of

north China” and “the romantic city of China”.

What is more, because of its fresh air, mild climate, high

afforestation rate, convenient transportation and

comparatively cleaner streets. Dalian was named China`s most

livable city by China Daily in 2006.

Additionally, there are many Japanese and Russian heritages

preserved in Dalian. Dalian International Conference Centre

has been the venue of the Annual Meeting of the New

Champions(“Summer Davos”) since 2007.

Every June, the China International Software & Information

Service Fair is held in Dalian World Expo Center. Officials from

overseas government departments, CEOs of World Top 500,

well-known consulting firms and overseas IT associations attend

the fair each year.

Climate Dalian has a monsoon-influenced humid continental climate,

characterised by humid summers due to the East-Asian monsoon, and

cold, windy, dry winters that reflect the influence of the vast Siberian

anticyclone.

Food As a coastal city, Dalian has varieties of seafood, which is also

comparatively cheap.

And as an international city, Dalian also has many kinds of very native

foreign food.

Transportation Not many people ride bicycles in Dalian because of the hilly roads.

Dalian is also one of the many cities in China where there are few

motorcycles, because motorcycle riding on most roads is banned by law.

The city has a comprehensive bus system and an efficient Dalian Metro

system, usually called Qinggui. As of 2014, new lines and expansion of

the Metro system are under way.

Dalian has a recently (2006) expanded international airport, Dalian

Zhoushuizi International Airport, with direct flights to the most major

cities in China, and to some cities in Japan, South Korea, Russia and other

countries. In 2013, the airport was the 17th busiest airport in China with

14,083,131 passengers.
