Shenyang Travel Tips
Clothing: Wear more! Wear more! Take down jackets, autumn clothes and pants, snow boots, hats, scarves, ear bags, all with you! The temperature outside can really freeze your ears, and your phone will shut down due to the low temperature.
Power bank: Remember to bring your power bank when you go out! The temperature outside is too low, and the phone easily runs out of battery.
Transportation: Shenyang Station and Shenyang North Station are preferred for high-speed rail and train travel, as they are relatively close to the city center. The public transportation and subway in Shenyang are also very convenient, with ride codes available on WeChat, Alipay, and UnionPay.
Accommodation: If you want to visit the Forbidden City and the Grand Marshal's Mansion, it is recommended to stay near Zhongjie, which has convenient transportation, as well as shopping malls and pedestrian streets. It is important to book hotels in advance during holidays and peak seasons, otherwise there may be price increases or a lack of preferred rooms.
Cuisine: The chicken stands in Shenyang are really good. You can buy them and try them out just because they smell fragrant, without having to waste time queuing up to buy chicken stands.
Shopping: When you have free time, you can go to the morning and night markets to experience the prices in Northeast China, but you should act within your means and not buy whatever you see.
