Red Beach in Panjin - China

Red Beach in Panjin, China - Sand is probably the first thing that comes to mind when thinking about the beach. However, this is not the case with the Panjin Red Beach in China, which is, actually, red, and not covered in sand at all. Such a phenomenon is caused by a type of red plant called Sueda. It starts growing during April and May, then stays green during the summer, but starts turning vividly red in autumn. To keep the beautiful nature and its inhabitants safe, the area was granted state-level protection back in 1988. Even though most of the Red Beach is closed to the public, there still is a small section that works as a tourist attraction. #china #china🇨🇳 #chinatravel #chinalife #chinadestinations #chinaphotography #panjin #panjinchina #redbeach #liaoning #liaoningprovince #wetland #ilovemylife #itsgoodtobealive #travel #travelling #viajar #viajarfazbem #viajarépreciso #trip #wanderlust #wanderlusting #enjoythelife #travelgram #culture

Lushun Military Port

Lushun Military Port (also known as Lushun Port), located in Lushunkou District, Dalian City, Liaoning Province, China, is a non-freezing port, located south of Baiyu Mountain. It was established during the Qing Dynasty, and there was a naval camp in Lushun as early as the Ming Dynasty.

It is now used by the North Sea Fleet of the People's Liberation Army Navy and belongs to the Lushun Base of the Navy. The Lushun Military Port was established during the Qing government period from 1880 to 1890.

The water cave was formed by a large water-filled karst cave millions of years ago. The stalactites, stalagmites, stone pillars, stone flowers, and stone mantles in the cave are well developed, marveling at the profoundness of nature's craftsmanship! Mysterious water cave, colorful, strange shape, fairyland on earth.

Liaoning trip

It’s been a long time since I last travelled. I decided to visit my hometown after 5 years. The Covid 19 measures were so much less stringent, no quarantine at all but simply fill up health declaration by scanning QR code using WeChat at custom. The food is still awesome. The end April to start of may has a great temperature ranging from 4 to 20 degree c. The fashionable goods is definitely a good buy.#mytripvlog #china #hometown #liaoning #shenyang
