A jam-packed 2-day, 1-night trip to Dalian this weekend! We'll reveal the most efficient itinerary for conquering the exotic charm of Dalian, a nearby European city just an hour from Korea, in one day.

📅 Day 1: Russian-European Old Town Tour
Afternoon: Begin your journey at Dongguan Street (东关街)! Known as Dalian's "Old Town," this area has been transformed into a cafe street with preserved buildings from the 1920s and 1930s. Start your journey with a cup of coffee at a charming, quaint cafe. The well-maintained area offers plenty of photo opportunities.

Afternoon-Evening: Take the tram and explore European architecture! From Dongguan Street, take a Dalian tram, which has been in operation since the 1900s, to Zhongshan Square (中山广场). Here, century-old buildings surround a circular square, creating an exotic atmosphere reminiscent of a European square. Next, explore the walkable Russian-style streets (俄罗斯风情街) and admire the Russian-style buildings and souvenir shops.

Dinner: Enjoy a dinner of Northeastern cuisine or seafood at Russian Street or around Zhongshan Square!

📅 Day 2: Europe in China and a Fantastic Light Festival
AM-PM: Gondola Ride at the Dongfang Shuicheng (东方水城)!

Dongfang Shuicheng, known as the "Venice of China," is a man-made water city modeled after Venice, Italy.

With its European-style buildings and 4km of canals, you'll feel as if you've stepped into Europe. Take a gondola ride or stroll along the canals for some memorable photos. (Easy access via Subway Line 2)

Dinner: Enjoy the laser show and nightscape of Xinghai Bay Bridge! The highlight of your Dalian trip is a visit to Xinghai Square (星海广场), Asia's largest public square. Be sure to catch the spectacular laser show centered around the Xinghai Bay Bridge (星海湾大桥) at 7:30 PM or 8:30 PM (varies by season). End your trip with the lasers illuminating the bridge over the sea, and the stunning night view of Dalian as your backdrop.

✅ 2-Day, 1-Night Plan Tip: Dongguan Street, Russian Street, and Zhongshan Square are relatively close together, making it easy to combine your trips by tram. Minimize your movements and enjoy a packed itinerary!
