About this activity

Dalian is home to incredible natural and modern sights that remain hidden gems on the international stage. Unlike well-known spots like Xinghai Square, these outdoor areas have only recently been developed or opened to the public—making them rare, fresh, and unique.

This tour offers two distinct experiences:

1. Mountain Hiking – A scenic trail with steps and some steep parts. Ideal for those who enjoy hiking and can handle a moderate physical challenge.

2. Modern Architecture Walk – A relaxed route through Dalian’s impressive contemporary buildings, suitable for all fitness levels.

You’re welcome to choose both routes for a half-day adventure, or select the one that best suits your interests and physical ability. Either way, this will be a truly rewarding experience that offers a deeper insight into Dalian’s rich and diverse character.

All photos here were taken by me. As a photographer, I can capture candid or styled shots & you can enjoy the tour and bring home lasting memories.
