渔人码头

Fisherman Wharf, Dalian

大连市中山区滨海东路

I could really just sit here for hours and enjoy the sea breeze and magnificent view. This place is one of my top favourite in my Dalian trip. Funny thing was, I found this place when I was searching tag #dalian on instagram!! Unfortunately I couldn't really take the coldness of the weather. If I'm not wrong, it is 0 degree-3 degree. The chilling sea wind made it so bad :'(

Does this place resembles little europe?

This is the place where all the ships parked at the dock side, and the fisherman will bring their best catch like mussels, abalones, fishes etc.

Can't emphasis how much I love their MacDonald cafe. Most of the toilets in China can be notoriously dirty or unavailable but, mac toilets always the best! Clean, with sufficient toilet roll and the english pop music although it's china hahaha

Sipped some cappuccino for warmth before heading to Tiger Beach, situated inside Ocean Park.

Laohutan Scenic Park

Address: No.9 Binhai Middle Road, Zhongshan District, Dalian 116013, China

Another favourite place!!! The Ocean Park have alot thrilling rides and sea animals such as dolphins, walrus, shark, jellyfish sealion etc etc. Even polar bear and penguins!!

The super big mirror inside the aquarium.

Truly my first time seeing so many moon jellyfish. Apparently, they fixed light timing for different colours, yellow, blue, green and red on the jellyfishes. So pretty!!!

Even more moon jellyfishes in the jar. But I'm not sure if the jellyfishes are okay with cramping together in a small tank..?

I get super excited when i saw this LOLOL

Reminds me of those sword master birds where they fly around in the mountain. Damn cool to see them!!

Super beautiful lake that overlooked the city, inside the ocean park.

MEH MY FAVOURITE LOK LOK STYLE IN MALA SOUP!!

Hi walrus. He played with us for a while :)

Dalian History Musuem

The train.

We're pretty near xinghai square.

We randomly walked into this restaurant, unknowingly it is considered one of the best restaurants in China!! One of the most popular restaurants in Hangzhou is the chain Wai Po Jia (translated to mean ‘Grandmother’s House’

I LOVE THE SWEET SALTED RIBS, and it's cheap.

Ordered a RM5 ($1) toufu that ended up like this.

..... too big bowl until I can't even finish and got a huge shock. But it's soooooo good.

soft boil vegetables with chicken broth. Really yum.

I HAD THIS FAMOUS KAO YU (FRIED FISH WITH MALA SAUCE)

铭记烤鱼-沙河口区 西安路(近罗斯福)

We happened to know this security lady in Dalian and she told us that we die die must try this!!

Guess what, I tried and I died. Had a really bad food poisoning and was vomiting the entire day in the palace we booked for last day. I was honestly damn depressed :( Couldn't even slept properly that day but the fish is honestly way too good. That's why I endured the spiciness and ate every bit of it. End up suffered like crazy in hotel. Bought this super pretty pandora ring for $6!!

wah lao damn pretty lah!!!

LOOK AT THE GORGEOUS POOL (Taken from google cause we couldn't go up as it was super late and we had to check out early in the morning at 9am)

our bed!!

The washup area with lots of expensive soaps, shampoo, lotion and even conditioners.. and super nice smelling bath bomb. 

Open concept bath tub.

Our view in the morning. SUPER GORGEOUS.

But guess what, something epic happened.

So at the hotel, there are no pharmacy, no supermarket that sell food except for their cafe that serves breakfast. I had super bad food poisoning so had to get myself some tummy medicines and for vomiting but couldn't get it. So...In the end.... I had to forked out RMB100 ($22) for them to hire a private car and a person to buy medicine for me. Sian, I really literally just sleep for 30 minutes before checking out.

So sad. Honestly I spend the whole night vomiting lah. The toilet cover closing on me wtf. Because it's 6 star hotel and the toilet is automated, so every single time when it sense no heat on the seat cover, then it will automatically close wtffff. And then it will proceed to deodorant and sanitize it. Super smart don't even need to press the button!! But whole night instead of sleeping on my memory foam pillow (by the way you can choose if you want charcoal pillow, round pillow etc), I just kena slapping my head by the toilet seat while being uncomfortable. Freaking sad cause I was looking forward to this hotel treatment for a long time :( The only salvage part was honestly the shiok bath tub. It was so relaxing that it managed to comforts my weak stomach sigh. Sooo comfortable.

That's end of Dalian Trip post. If you have any questions, do feel free to drop me a email. 

Enjoy the trip if you're travelling there someday!! :)
