Dalian does not belong to the past. Although the city is still running the rickety tram, iron carriages wrapped the old days, Dinglinger like the sound of Barang staggered times; and although this city has so many exotic Russian type of Japanese-style architecture, walk through One would feel like being in the shadow of a huge history of ear from time to time came whistling through the space-time bitter wind is blowing cold air, people tremble with fear. However, all this is that this young, but beautiful old toys, his childhood years moving away from carefully preserved, after the glass marbles - these are the precious marbles, not because of their own value, but their childhood years of the original owner the positions - yes, the youthful love, which makes them look ordinary gadgets have a significant value. It's not like Beijing, Beijing is the older of the old guy, throw in a run-down courtyard, a narrow alley, or even just a vague names, all have a long history, but that the history of too many years in the area of the dust, made a mold, and even corrosion was rusty, he does not mind how. No, however, Dalian, Dalian has only a short span of a century, he was still just a teenager, not so much the past can be arbitrarily tossed. How many pieces he care that only the glass ball, carefully wipe them clean with a red cloth to gently wrap the collection in boxes, like the baby with the same income in no way a mockery of concerns around the vision of brothers.
Do not blame this point Dalian, old-fashioned, on the contrary, I would be delighted to enjoy such a simple. This simple, there are joint and several out of the generous people become almost the sole evaluation of Dalian. After returning from Dalian for a long time, I still was such a simple and bold and surrounded by memories, I remember who I travel the coastal road ride taxi driver, he was out a fair price, but also for me explain the history of Dalian, I would who is more grateful to the obligation to send me a way female tour guide, she was halfway to my visitors Eurya this lonely on the train, but also let me swim with her tours of the Laohutan, and finally sent me to the city. The warm and hospitable people of Dalian, so my trip to Dalian, have fond memories of. Dalian is a beautiful scenery there is no doubt, but the aftertaste is even more beautiful here, human. Who knows, these would not be a small box hidden in my house How many pieces of that precious glass ball?
From another point of view, Dalian, while history is not long, but the exposure is very high. Almost from the appearance of that moment, it stood in the center stage to receive the attention of the parties. However, this exposure is not the star of the stage, on the contrary, it is nothing but an innocent suffer Bale. His childhood, filled with semifeudal and semicolonial suffering. 100 years ago, the Russians occupied the Liaodong Peninsula, opened built this city, named her "Kundalini", which means a distant city, a place far away from Moscow and St. Petersburg. 70 years ago, the Japanese occupied the city, the "Kundalini" transliteration over, it becomes the Chinese language, "Dalian", has been in use ever since. The youth, it's been a life of suffering such a birth, and was a hard pull on the history of the future, accept the humiliation of all kinds of innocent people. From the late nineteenth century to the victory, he has kept Japan and tsarist Russia was removed with the hands and become the eyes of two robbers spoils of the property and seek advice bargaining chips, which the hardy children were therefore strongly branded the imprint of these two countries. His mother, who's weak, but can only be looked on, powerless. This strange and unfortunate encounters, most from his special location. In the Bohai Sea and Yellow Sea between the Liaodong Peninsula, the same as the stalactite Daochui down, this is the gate of Beijing and Tianjin is the imperial frontier. Across it, and the present is Yimapingchuan, the capital is foregone conclusion. And Dalian, is that the root stalactite at the bottom of most of a translucent crystal drops, is that the locks on the doors is a sentinel on the forward positions. In an era of weakness, a teenager, standing in such a position, what happened to him can be imagined. The north wind and east wind kept raging, and he is destined to bear an even more violent than their peers test.
As a result, careful people are often out of anything from the speculation. Is this stubborn boy, because of bullying from childhood to live under the bandit's sake, he was raised on the strong and indomitable character now?
Such speculation without reason. However, it would simply be attributed to the formation of character and history, if not wrong, or at least incomplete. Time and space in any cities are wrestling with each other the results of the city's character is always stirring in the gradual integration of space-time gradually solidified, and finally crystallization. If we say that history is the mother of his forbear good, she gave a different Dalian unique experiences, and teach him to keep faith in the face of suffering, then, geography is a strong his generous father, who make their children in front of the suffering of is still optimistic, and allow him to eventually rise in misery and become a valiantly to guy. Dalian three faces the sea, created by the vast sea of Dalian forthright and atmosphere, it created a mind like the sea. Dalian's ocean is special, it differs from Qingdao, is different from Xiamen, and also different from any other place. God knows, and now the sea has become a holiday will remind people to a place where you can become arbitrarily close to, or even random objects can be teased. Referred to the sea, people think of fine sandy beaches, calm water, think of sunglasses, beach chairs and umbrella cover, as if just put on swimsuits, everyone can become a sea of beach-goers. However, the sea is not the case in Dalian. Dalian Seaside does not warm savory jade, there is no fine was to seize the sand, there are only rocks and rock beaches, as well as a wave washed the pebbles were rounded rounded. It is not specifically to please you, do not care whether you like it, it has deliberately maintained a distance from the human, conscious to maintain the sea should be a solemn, broad in the deep. This is a magnificent sea is deep, is endless, it is not used to close, but for appreciation. Here, the most intimate contact is not a physical wound, but the soul exchanges. Here, the most appropriate is not clear from the ripple Zhuozu, but sitting on tens of meters high cliff, not saying a word, quietly watching the foot of that magnificent sea.
Is not, precisely because such a vast sea, to have such a vast city, this vast people?
So all of this in Dalian. It is not too far-reaching past, there are exceptions generous mind, which makes it the character of the exposed, expansive and atmospheric. Dalian does not belong to the past. Dalian are now, this is the charm of it all. A Zen master living in the present is warm, and he as like a flower blooming, love and enjoy life to give him everything. Dalian is also true. Dalian is a lively playground, every day it is festive. All this can be from Dalian in terms of people face a warm spirited out of the city from the love of soccer terms out of the city from each of a building, every corner of the see it.
For a tourist, the experience of such a warm personality is the most convenient place everywhere in the city square. Dalian has more than 80 large and small, square - so many, it is difficult to imagine a little city can actually make so much packed the square - in our minds, more like a city square piece of a handful of cherry on the cake, each one is precious. Therefore, some people are concerned, the square in Dalian, it seems water is too large a part of it which is somewhat a misnomer - is clearly only a middle of the street in a green, it has also called the Plaza? Dalian, however, whether these people, they are keen on square, just like everyone loves their own potted garden - the flowers though not luxurious, but it is poured into its own alum. Such love, but it is still derived from Dalian were kind of a warm nature. Dalian love these flowers every day for their pest grass-cutting, pruning and fertilizing, expects them to grow higher and more beautiful. Sure enough, these flowers are also live up people's expectations, each one is mouthwatering, has its own distinct personality. The square, each from their respective side reflects the lives of Dalian, Dalian city, each one inside a small center of life. For example, the Olympic Square its name implies, is a sports center in Dalian, while the Zhongshan Square, the financial center of Dalian, where around are filled with a large number of financial institutions, as well as friendly and square, near the cinema and entertainment focus, is the cultural center of Dalian. Then, when All these styles together into the square lines, woven into a network, Dalian rounded up in an instant, full up, they are together, and even into the blood in Dalian, so this is not a long history of the city , in the here and now actually has a surprising deep and rich. Imagine, when a tourist exposure to such a promenade decorated with flowers, how could it not be fascinating in this eye-catching flowers blossoming attraction head drunk ecstatic, Liulianwangfan?
This is Dalian, a lively seaside gardens.
