Leave Yingkou and go to the second stop, Jinzhou, along the Binhai Highway, driving 139 kilometers and taking three hours to reach Jinzhou Galaxy Plaza.
[One] Linghe Night Market: Living in the downtown area, I go straight to the nearby Linghe Night Market and Guta Night Market when I go for a night run. I am surprised and amazed by the night markets in Jinzhou!
[Two] Liaoshen Campaign Memorial Hall: Every time I come to Jinzhou, I have to go to the Liaoshen Campaign Memorial Hall to relive that period of history and remember the martyrs!
[Three] Ancient Pagoda Historical and Cultural Park: This is really my first time here. There are ancient buildings of Guangji Temple, Guangji Temple Pagoda of Liao Dynasty, Tianhou Palace and Guandi Temple in the park. The most impressive thing is that The Yijun Zhaozhong Temple was built for the Yijun soldiers who died in the Sino-Japanese Sino-Japanese Sino-Japanese War!
Because I had to continue my journey, I didn’t spend too much time in Jinzhou. There are still many scenic spots in Jinzhou worth visiting, and I will come here often.
