Liaoning (Chinese: 辽宁; pinyin: Liáoníng ) is a province of China, located in the northeast of the country. The modern province was established in 1907 as Fengtian or Fengtien province and the name was changed to Liaoning in 1929. It was also known as Mukden province at the time, for the Manchu pronunciation of Shengjing, the former name of the provincial capital Shenyang. Under the Japanese-puppet Manchukuo regime, the province reverted to its 1907 name but the name Liaoning was restored in 1945 and again in 1954.

In the autumn, this is a great place to view a sea of red when Panjin Red Beach, designated an AAAA scenic spot, and the world’s largest and best-maintained wetland changes to a crimson colour. It is the seepweed (aka seablite) plant which turns a crimson red during its autumn maturing phase. While maturing it changes from a green to goldish and then the crimson red. During this period it is referred to as the “red carpet beach.” There is a walkway built over a portion of the flat marshlands, enabling sightseers to get great breathtaking views miles of the 51 square miles of coastal wetlands. These coastal waters are also home to 260 varieties of birds and 400 species of wildlife. However4 during our golden week visit, we saw mostly thousands and thousands of sightseers. Red Beach Scenic Area has three distinct points of interest, being, Red Beach’s 618-metre walkway over the wetlands, Reed Sea Crane-watching corridor which stretches about 130 km along the banks of Liaohe River and the shores of Bohai Bay, and Moon Bay Wetland Park. To get to Panjin City from Guangzhou, we took a three hour and forty minute flight with from GZ to Shenyang, and then took the train to Panjin City. It was about a two-hour train ride.

I took the light rail train line 3 from a building behind the railway station to the terminal stop at Golden Pebble Beach (RMB 8 for 50 mins journey). On arrival, I booked bus ticket from the tourist information centre on the right after exiting from station. Then I boarded the red bus and there are brochures at the ticket centre and I could find the stop I needed. It is a popular stop and many people alighted here. It is about 10 mins ride away. Entrance ticket is RMB 70 and the sceneries and types of rocks varies. At half way point one can sit down for a seafood meal. At the end of it, I just followed the crowd and took the bus out before finally changing to one that will bring me to the station. I would have love to explore more places if I have the time. On the return journey, I stopped at the development zone stop and took a taxi to visit the numerous cherry farms at Big Black Mountain for cherry picking. I would highly recommend this Geopark when visiting Dalian.
