Dalian Russian Style Street, also known as Unity Street, is a nice place to visit when you come to Dalian. The street is about 430 meters long and preserves 38 buildings from the original Far East White Russian period, showcasing the Russian architectural style of the 19th and 20th centuries. The commercial restaurants and shops on both sides look quite nice and are great for taking pictures.
Although small, the Russian Style Street allows you to experience Russian-style street scenes, food, nesting dolls and other customs. It is well worth spending an hour or two leisurely strolling in the afternoon.
I was standing in Xinghai Square when the sea breeze with its salty smell came. Seagulls drew white arcs in the gray-blue sky, and then suddenly dived to the top of the waves, picking up the bread crumbs thrown by tourists. The tram clanged past the Russian-style street, and the old red-brick buildings squatted silently on both sides of the slope, with the aroma of coffee seeping out of the window lattices. An old man in a sailor suit sat on the steps and played the accordion, and the tune was blown intermittently by the sea breeze. Climbing up Lianhua Mountain at dusk. The whole city suddenly spread out at my feet - the bay was crouching like a giant beast, and the steel cables of the cross-sea bridge were spinning the last rays of sunset into golden threads. The tower cranes in the distant port were still working, like a group of tireless steel mantises. The salty sea fog rose.
Dalian Russian Street: Perfect for history and romance - Dalian Russian Street, located north of Shengli Bridge in Xigang District, is the first street in China with Russian 19th and 20th century architecture. This century-old street, witnessing the vicissitudes of Dalian from a small fishing village to a modern metropolis, has become a cultural business card and tourist attraction in Dalian. Architecture: Historical witness to the Russian style street retains 38 former Far Eastern Belarusian buildings, which are diverse in style, both the neoclassical town hall and the Gothic style of the old site of the Dongqing Ship Club. These buildings witness the history of Dalian's city, and are symbols of the origin of Dalian city. Walking around, it seems to be in a European town, and each building tells the story of the past. Culture: The multi-faceted Russian style street is not only a unique street in architectural style, but also a melting pot of culture. It brings together elements of Russian culture, Japanese culture and Chinese culture. Visitors can enjoy Russian dances, music performances and authentic Russian cuisine such as cabbage soup, kebabs and Russian cakes. At the same time, it also retains the local cultural characteristics of Dalian, such as fried dumplings and hot salmon. Travel: The experience and consumption of the Russian style street tourism projects are rich and varied. Visitors can buy a variety of Russian specialties such as dolls, chocolates and wine. In addition, there are many cultural exhibitions and interactive activities, such as the "Russian Street Garden" special visitors can enjoy large flower art installations and experience street-style interactive music.

Every city in the Northeast seems to have a Russian-style street, and the beautiful Dalian also has it. 📝Note tips: 1. Friends who like taking pictures must come here in the morning, because many businesses are not open in the morning, and the whole street is particularly quiet, accompanied by the soft spring light, and there is no need to worry about someone competing with you for the camera position 2. The length of the street is not long, about 500 to 600 meters, so there is no need to deliberately come here to play. If you are going to the train station or the surrounding attractions, it is better to come here to check in and take pictures 3. The food and souvenirs on the street are up to you to choose according to your hobbies. I personally recommend choosing carefully 👍Most recommended: On both sides of the street, the existing three ancient Russian-style buildings are Dalian Art Exhibition Hall, Dalian Ship Technology School and Dalian Natural History Museum Site. When we come here, don't miss these three most iconic buildings
You can come here to get a preliminary understanding of Russia's exotic customs. It is quite playable. Generally speaking, the architectural style is a simple imitation, which is far from the real Russian architecture. Russia's light industry is underdeveloped, so many handicrafts may be produced domestically. Russia's military products (telescopes and the like), silver products and purple gold are its characteristics. You can check in at Pushkin Coffee Shop, and try Leba and kvass.
Walking along Dalian Russian Style Street, it feels like traveling to Europe in a second! This century-old street retains 38 old Russian-style buildings, with pointed roofs, arched windows, and retro brick walls. A casual shot is a fairy-tale blockbuster. The children excitedly pointed at the colorful houses and said "like a castle". The street is not long but full of fun. Take your child to experience the Russian-style carriage, or watch the painting performance of street artists, and the sense of interaction is full. There are many surprises hidden in the street shops: Russian dolls, chocolate, and black bread, which children love; parents can also find exquisite handicrafts. When you are tired of playing, go to a Russian restaurant to try borscht, or choose a cafe to take a rest, which is relaxing and comfortable. Free opening + convenient transportation (bus 40/526 direct access), parent-child travel friendly index is super high! **Tips**: It is recommended to go in the morning to avoid the peak of traffic; wear light-colored clothes for better photos~
Dalian Russian Style Street Here are three buildings from the Far East Belarus, with a history of a hundred years. It is the first Russian style street in the country with the Russian style of the 19th and 20th centuries. The style reflects the Russian style. The whole street is full of uneven "pointed" and "tower" lofts, which have a Russian "flavor". But after revisiting the old place 20 years later, I feel that this street is also confused, right? It has become a tourist small commodity supermarket and a wholesale point for dried seafood. There is a row of stalls in front of the store. All the stalls are the same, nothing more than Russian-style chocolate, Russian big board, nesting dolls, scarves, dried seafood...
