An immersive Citywalk through a century of history

N ways to fully experience Shenyang Fangcheng in 3 days and 2 nights
"What's it like to be awakened by the morning light from the Imperial Palace in a Republican-era Western-style building?"
To all travelers still fretting over summer "special forces" travel guides at 3 AM,
Congratulations on finding this immersive travel guide to Shenyang Fangcheng.
Stroll 800 meters south along Zhongjie Street,
When you find the red walls and golden roofs overlapping with the light and shadow of white Western-style buildings,
Congratulations on unlocking Shenyang Fangcheng's "time-space folding point."
The former site of the Fengtian Youth Officers' Club, originally built in 1913,
Is now transforming its historical heritage into the most fashionable travel ritual.
▶▷Explore the Old City with just 1 map
At 8:00 AM, open the smart curtains.
Fragments of morning glow, sliced by the flying eaves of the Imperial Palace, are falling onto your pillow.
Go downstairs, turn right, cross Zhengyang Street, and you'll be standing at the main gate of Shenyang Imperial Palace.
This dragon-rising land, the birthplace of the Qing Dynasty, hides many "imperial trivia."
It's highly recommended to join a tour group and listen to half a day's worth of Dorgon's stories.
The adjacent Zhongjie Street holds truly authentic ways to experience.
A combination of sticky Malatang and caramel pudding shaved ice, secretly cherished by old Shenyang locals,
For 40 RMB per person, you can taste the century-old flavors that old brands secretly compete over.
If you get hot, duck into Liu Laogen Grand Stage to watch an authentic Er'ren Zhuan performance,
Or slip into the Western-style veranda of Marshal Zhang's Mansion to watch dusk engulf the blue bricks.
▶▷How contemporary literary and artistic youths experience it
While a Hanfu travel photographer walks through the Baroque hall, holding up her ruqun,
You are lying on a sofa under a century-old stone pillar, playing "It Takes Two" on PS5.
While someone watching a movie on a DeRUCCI mattress, projected by XGIMI, laughs until tears stream down their face,
The wild matsutake mushrooms in the local specialty shop are sound asleep in glass jars.
Every type of traveler can find their comfort zone in this "parallel time-space museum."
TIPS:
🔸Staying in the historic district, walking is preferred over shared bikes (note: no parking allowed within Fangcheng).
🔸For north-facing rooms, prepare earplugs; the sound of horse carriage bells (at 10 AM) might sneak in through the window.
🔸For influencer travel photography packages, book the golden hour (3-5 PM) in advance.
🔸The iced "Dabaili" (pear drink) from nearby convenience stores is a summer heat-relief essential.
This summer, let the evening breeze, having traveled through a century,
Blow away the regrets of missed holidays.
