Golden Pebble Beach Travel Guide

Brief Introduction
Dalian is renowned for its honor as a "City Garden", while in the city there is a place called "Back Garden of Dalian"--the Golden Pebble Beach National Tourist Resort.

The Resort was approved by China State Government in 1992, and in 2001, it was ranked as a 4A national tourist attraction. It can also be called a 4 "S" resort -- a resort with elements of "Sea", "Shine", "Sand" and "Stone".

For the last unfamiliar element, one would be surprised at the figure and color of exotic rocks here along the seaside--according to geological experts, it is a typical glacial epoch sea karst physiognomy.

The Resort covers a land area of 62 km2, maritime space 58 km2, and is 58 km away from downtown Dalian.

The former mayor of Dalian Mr. Bo Xilai compares the resort as an "Oriental Hawaii". A Disney-style amusement land is under construction in center of it and is scheduled to open in 2005.
