The origin of Dalian city name

According to historical records, when western Catholic missionaries preached in China, they marked Dalian Bay as "Dalian" according to the pronunciation of China language, and translated it into Chinese to become the word "Dalian". Because at that time, a kind of cloth bag with coins was popular, called "wallet", which meant auspiciousness. Moreover, Sanshan Island outside the mouth of Dalian Bay is connected by two islands, and its shape is similar to a "wallet" with shoulders on the front and back. Local residents call it "Wallet Island" and the north sea area of the island is "Wallet Bay". But when was the word "Wallet Bay" changed to "Dalian" today? It can be traced back to the memorial of Li Hongzhang, the minister of Beiyang in the fifth year of Guangxu in the Qing Dynasty, that is, 1879+00.28, which includes the words "Golden State" and "Dalian Bay". As advocated by North Korean officials, the name "Dalian Bay" spread in the region as soon as it appeared. 1860, John watt, commander of the British fleet, drove the warships of this country into this place and marked it as "Dalian Bay" on the chart, that is, Dalian Bay. Today, the area around Dalian Port is marked as "Victoria Bay" with the name of the Queen of England, and Dagushan Port is marked as "Aodian Bay". Later, the Japanese translated "Dalian Bay" into "Dalian Bay" according to the chart made by John Watt. During the period of Russian rule, there was also a Russian name, called "the city of Darini". One in Dalian, used as a specific place name and administrative region alone, began in August 1905 after the end of the Russo-Japanese War. At that time, Japan replaced Russia's rule over Lvda. On August 27th, the Japanese authorities changed the name of "Darini City" played by Russia to "Dalian City" by the Liaodong Garrison No.3 circular.
