Summary: This Muslim friendly Dalian travel account keeps the original Qingming route, halal restaurants, mosque-side food, seafood stops, streets, and photos. It gives English readers a clear halal travel view of Dalian without changing the source facts.

We spent the three-day Qingming Festival holiday in 2018 in Dalian. Dalian is not too far from Beijing. It takes just over four hours to reach Dalian North Station by high-speed rail from Beijing, and tickets are easy to find. For the return trip, we chose to fly from Dalian to Tianjin. The flight took one hour and cost 300 yuan, which was cheaper than the high-speed train. We enjoyed a good meal in Tianjin before taking a half-hour intercity train back to Beijing.



Once we arrived in Dalian, I knew I had made the right choice. While other places were packed with crowds during the holiday, Dalian felt like a ghost town.



A friend from Dalian told me that the locals all travel away during the holidays, which is why you don't see many people in the city.

Yiding Restaurant



For dinner, we ate crispy shrimp, spicy squid, and steamed dumplings (shaomai) at Yiding Restaurant near the Dalian mosque, and we also bought some halal food. The stir-fried dishes at halal restaurants in Dalian are quite tasty and come in large portions.













Address: Next to the mosque at 98 Beijing Street

Dongshengxiang



The stir-fried dishes at this place are truly fragrant, especially the shredded potatoes with celery, which I have loved since I was a child. Dalian food is not greasy, salty, or spicy.







Double-cooked pork (guobaorou) and steamed dumplings (shaomai) are considered signature Northeast dishes.





Address: 49 Nanguanling Road

Tongqing Hui Muslim Restaurant



This shop is quite popular locally. It stays open late at night and attracts many diners.











Sweet and sour stir-fried meat (guobaorou).





Hairtail fish (daoyu). You can eat halal seafood here.

Address: 51 Tongqing Street.

Huixiangyuan beef tendon soup.



I think this is a must-visit restaurant in Dalian. The beef tendon soup and sesame flatbread (shaobing) are both delicious. They have opened two branches now, and this original shop has moved to a new location.











Address: 2 Qianshan Road, Huadong Road.

Donggang Music Square.





Dalian is as beautiful as a European city.



Donggang Music Square, Zhongshan District.









Even the mall cafes are empty.

Laohutan Ocean Park.



Laohutan Ocean Park is a must-visit 5A-rated attraction in Dalian. Tickets cost 175 yuan per person online and take two hours to activate after purchase. I recommend visiting the Polar Ocean World and the Bird Forest inside.



The birds in the Bird Forest roam freely. They are not afraid of people and will not hurt you. You can buy some bird feed to feed them.































When I entered the Dolphin Pavilion, I felt like every person in Dalian was there watching the dolphin show. I had not seen that many people anywhere else in the city.



















At the oceanarium, they have dolphin and beluga whale shows. When I watched shows at the Georgia Aquarium in the United States, the staff did not allow photography, probably to avoid protests from animal rights groups.



Dalian buses have bilingual stop announcements, and the subway even has announcements in Japanese.



Dalian Mosque



Dalian Mosque is the only pink-colored mosque in China. It is located at No. 96 Beijing Street in Dalian and was first built in 1922.
