An ideal summer retreat
Changhai county in Dalian is drawing tourists to its archipelago-style resort where one can watch dolphins and birds, dig clams or explore the sea in a semi-submersible.
Every person has his or her space where they find peace of body and mind. For Liu Fuyong, better known as Daliu, a mountaineer with 25 years of experience, this peaceful sanctuary lies in Changhai county of Dalian, Liaoning province.
After summiting Yuzhu Peak on the eastern ridge of Kunlun Mountains, rising 6,178 meters above sea level in Qinghai province, for the 23rd time, he returned home to downtown Dalian in August. But in less than a week he was on his way to Changhai. "Heading out to the sea for a big catch, relishing the most delicious seafood in all of China, or simply gazing at the sea during sunset — all these moments are beautiful," said Daliu, 64.
Daliu finds tranquillity in snowcapped mountains and the northeastern island county. "When visiting Changhai, a significant fishing base in China, one must savor the local seafood," said Daliu. "It boasts the best marine ranch in China. Its low water temperatures, rapid water flow and clean water quality ensure quality seafood."
