Write: Varun [2011-05-23]
East of Binhai Road, Bangchuidao Scenic Area is 9 km away from downtown Dalian. Its name was derived from a nearby islet that looks like a rod ( Bangchui ). The scenic spot is encompasses an islet, sea, mountain, and beach, with the famous Bangchuidao State Guesthouse in the vicinity.
Bangchuidao is surrounded by lush pine and cypress-topped mountains in the north and vast and flat sandy beaches in the south. If a traveller looks into the distance, he will see three islands under the mist, evoking a feeling of being in fairyland. Occupying an area of only 0.3 square km, Bangchuidao offers travellers charming scenery with a myriad of unique plants and jagged rocks.
Bangchuidao State Guesthouse faces the sea, with the remaining sides tucked into green hills. Covering an area of over 870,000 square km, it is the largest landscape-style villa in Asia, boasting 13 villas in typical Chinese, European and Japanese styles. The hotel was honoured to have hosted many Chinese leaders and heads of foreign states.
