Summer vacation with kids in Shenyang! Follow this guide for a perfect trip～

I want to be Shenyang's "hometown treasure" – I don't believe anywhere else has 60-year-old aunties insisting on giving me their seat just because I'm holding a baby; or where a big brother would laugh and play along when my mischievous kid patted his butt... Who says my hometown isn't amazing?! Everyone should come to Shenyang! Bring your kids! Experience the local culture and vibes to the fullest! Must-visit attractions: - Marshal Zhang's Mansion: A treasure trove of Republic-era charm! The fusion of Chinese and Western architecture makes for perfect photos. Moms in qipaos just need to strike a pose to look like they stepped out of a vintage magazine – double the historical atmosphere! - Shenyang Imperial Palace: More unique than Beijing's Forbidden City! Its red walls and yellow tiles hide Manchu-Mongolian flair, with every brick telling historical stories. Perfect for kids to learn while having fun! Top accommodation pick: Howard Johnson Plaza Shenyang Choosing this hotel was genius! Spacious, comfortable rooms that don't feel cramped with kids. Complete with laundry and gym facilities – super convenient for travel. The hotel restaurant deserves special praise! Breakfast served until 11AM means no more dragging sleepy kids out early – they totally get parenting struggles! The cute kid's utensils made this the first place my little Dudu ate independently – proud mom moment! Their breakfast shrimp are as big as my palm, so fresh they practically bounce when you bite; the special food section is even better – sausages that drip with flavor, perfectly crispy-sweet-sour guobaorou, and must-try duck noodle soup so delicious I wanted to lick the bowl (I shamelessly had two servings)! 3-day, 2-night itinerary with kids: Day1: Arrive → Hotel check-in/rest → Marshal Zhang's Mansion → Dinner at Zhongjie (Northeastern cuisine) Day2: Shenyang Imperial Palace → Lunch at Zhongjie (find well-reviewed spots) → Afternoon shopping at Zhongjie (try Zhongjie ice cream & buy souvenirs) → Dinner at Ma's Shaomai Day3: Sleep in → Leisurely hotel breakfast → Pack and depart Shenyang is PERFECT for summer family trips! Friendly people, delicious food, great shopping, and comfy stays – don't hesitate, just book those tickets and go!
