Youth Park & Liaoning TV Tower
青年公园·彩电塔
A large park in the city center alongside the 305-meter Liaoning Broadcasting and TV Tower, whose lights at night reflect on the South Canal.
Youth Park lies beside Qingnian Street in Heping District, on the bank of the South Canal. It is one of the largest parks in central Shenyang, with lakes, boat rides, and tree-lined walking paths. In winter, the lake is opened as an ice rink. To the north of the park stands the Liaoning Broadcasting and TV Tower, locally known as the Color TV Tower, which rises about 305 meters and is a landmark of the Shenyang skyline. The area around the tower is the site of the Color TV Tower night market in summer. Admission to the park is free, and a visit takes about 1 to 1.5 hours. It is near Youth Park Station on Metro Line 2 and about 2 km from City Government Plaza. Opening times for climbing the tower are subject to on-site confirmation.
