They given me four choices, none of which I've really heard of before. Liaoning, Dalian, Shenyang and Huangzhou. Which of them is least likely to make me run back to England with culture shock like a baby?! Thanks hehe hehe Post Count: 8 Msg: #2 71 days ago, September 11th 2009 | Actually, you just provided 3 cities. Because Liaoning is a province, not a city. Both Dalian and Shenyang are in Liaoning Province. Shenyang is the capital city of Liaoning Province, Dalian is a coastal city in Liaoning Province. Hangzhou is the capitcal city of Zhejiang Province. | My suggestion is Dalian or Hangzhou. Dalian's weather is very beautiful, especially in summer. But sometimes, the wind is strong in winter. But it's OK. If you like to swim in the sea(I like that), it's good to stay in Dalian. Shenyang is not as good as Dalian. Hangzhou is famous for it's beautiful west lake and historic sites. And also it's close to Shanghai. But it's very humid in summer, just like Shanghai. There are also a lot of tourist destinations around Hangzhou, such as QianDaoHu(thousand-island lake), Huang Shan(yellow montain), Nanjing City, Suzhou city..... Actually You can wiki these cities. I stayed in Hangzhou for 4 years and stayed in Dalian for 5.5 years. My wife is in Shenyang. So I know these 3 cities well. Enjoy China.
