Shenyang Travel Attractions

Zhongshan Square
The Square is first built in 1913, it was called as Central Square at that time. In 1919, its name had been changed into Langsu Square. During the ruling period of Kuomintang, the name of the square had been changed into Zhongshan Square, which was still used after the liberation of Shenyang. In Cultural Revolution period, it was called Hongqi Square. Since 1981 the name Zhongshan Square has been reused…

Zhaoling Tomb Shenyang
Zhaoling Tomb, also called North Tomb due to its location in the north of Shenyang, enjoys equal fame with Fu Tomb and Yong Tomb. All these tombs are jointly called three imperial tombs outside Shanhaiguan. However, Zhaoling Tomb is much beyond the other two in terms of scale and layout.

The Shenyang Imperial Palace, located at No. 171, Shenyang Road, Shenhe District in Shenyang City, is the only existing royal palace in China outside of the Forbidden City in Beijing. The main structure of the palace was built in 1625 when Nurhachi was in power.
It was finished in 1636 by his son Abahai (Huangtaiji). Nurhachi and Abahai were both founding emperors of the Qing Dynasty.

The supernatural Strange Slope is over 80 meters long and about 15 meters wide, with its west part higher than the east part. The strange phenomenon is that cars stopping on the foot will automatically slide upward the top. It is more wonderful to ride a bike because bikes easily roll upward toward the top but you must pay more efforts to go down the hill.

Fuling Tomb Shenyang

Located in the eastern suburb of Shenyang City, Liaoning Province, Fuling Tomb (East Tomb) is the mausoleum of Nurhachi (1559-1626), the founder of the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911), and his empress. Covering an area of 194,800 square meters (about 48 acres), Fuling Tomb is a well-preserved tomb complex of the Qing Dynasty. It is now included in UNESCO’s list of World Heritage Sites.

    For visiting Shenyang, I think you should fly to Beijing. Capital Airport Bus to Beijing Train Station and then take bullet trains to Shenyang,it takes about 4 hours .
