Shenyang City

Liaoning's capital and the Qing dynasty's "first capital," where an imperial palace, imperial tombs and industrial heritage coexist.

Shenyang City lies in central Liaoning on the Liao River plain. Known anciently as Shengjing, it was the Qing capital before the dynasty entered the Shanhai Pass, and is also a major central city and old industrial base of Northeast China. The Shenyang Imperial Palace, Fuling Tomb (East Tomb) and Zhaoling Tomb (North Tomb) of the Qing are World Heritage Sites. The Zhang Family Marshal's Mansion, the September 18th Historical Museum, Zhongjie Street and the Tiexi industrial sites reflect modern history. Winter offers rich ice and snow activities, and local foods such as barbecue and chicken racks are distinctive. Summer and autumn are the most comfortable seasons, while winter is bitterly cold. Shenyang Taoxian International Airport, Shenyang Station and Shenyang North Station are the main gateways.
