PIRE-ECCI: Science Crossing Borders. | |
Dalian is a port city in the northeast of China, at the middle of the Liaodong Peninsula across the Yellow Sea from Korea. It is a tourist destination for the beaches and beautiful surrounding scenery, much like Santa Barbara in California. Dalian is a relatively small city (by Chinese standards) with a population of about 6 million people. It is an important industrial and scientific city, and features a milder summer climate compared to Beijing or Shanghai. It is often cited as the most beautiful city in China, and has been rated as one of the most livable cities in China as well. | |
