Yanwoling East-West Cliff Coast

Yanwoling is located on the east side of the middle section of Binhai Road in Dalian. The mountains in the scenic area form a mountain range about one kilometer long from east to west. Because black swallows often come, it is named "Yanwoling".

The cliffs in Yanwoling stretch out to the sea like horns, almost perpendicular to the coastline, and the surrounding cliffs are uneven and uneven. A cliff tens of meters high falls straight to the bottom of the sea. There stands a reef in the sea under the cliff, which is called "boat reef". Quartz rock has a strong ability to resist weathering and marine erosion. The cliff coast is formed by the normal fault extending from east to west, with steep rock walls and magnificent coastal landscape.

Dalian bangzha island

Bangba Island is located in the east section of Binhai Road, Dalian, about 5 kilometers southeast of Dalian. The range is 12 1 7 1' east longitude and 38 88' north latitude. It is a scenic spot with mountains, seas, islands and beaches as its main landscapes.

"Bangqu Island" is between Dalian Bay and Tiger Beach Bay, 0.39 km away from the land. It belongs to Zhongshan District, Dalian. The island is named after the shape of a stick. It is 4 10 meter long and 0/20 meter wide, with a land area of 0.049 square kilometers and an altitude of 52.8 meters. The west is high and the east is low, and there is a natural cave in the south. Stratigraphic inversion of Nanfen Formation in Lower Sinian. Lithology is mainly quartzite and conglomerate. Vegetation coverage. Surrounded by mountains in the north, the open sea and flat beaches in the south. The eastern part of Bangqu Island is one of the bathing beaches. There is Dalian State Guesthouse in the south.

Laotie Mountain Lighthouse

Laotieshan Lighthouse is located at the southern end of Lushunkou, Dalian, with east longitude122 32' and north latitude 3916'. On a headland slope at an altitude of 86.7 meters southwest of Laotieshan, it is surrounded by the sea on three sides and the mountain on one side. The height of the tower is about 14m, and the tower is cylindrical with a movable roof at the top.

It was established by the British in 1893 by the Qing government and has a history of 100 years. The main part of the lighthouse was made in France in 1892. 1998 was listed as one of the world's 100 famous lighthouses by the international association of navigation AIDS in August. It is a key cultural relic protection building in Dalian.

The natural boundary between the Yellow Sea and the Bohai Sea

The natural dividing line between the Yellow Sea and the Bohai Sea is located at the southernmost tip of Liaodong Peninsula, extending between the Yellow Sea and the Bohai Sea. "Laotieshan head goes deep into the sea, and the Yellow Sea and Bohai Sea are separated from here. It can be described as "distinct" in the color of seawater.

Part of the water in the Yellow Sea in the east is dark blue, and the water in the Bohai Sea in the west is turbid and slightly yellow. This is due to the natural phenomenon of submarine trench formation. After different colors of water meet here, there is a clear dividing line. The headland extending into the sea under the Laotieshan Lighthouse is the natural dividing line between the Yellow Sea and the Bohai Sea, sometimes in a straight line and sometimes in an S shape, which naturally separates the Yellow Sea from the Bohai Sea. Influenced by the seabed structure, the waves of Bo Huang Sea and Sea converge here from both sides of Tieshanjiao. Known as "the ends of the earth on the north coast of China".

Mysterious snake island

Snake Island is located in the Bohai Sea at the southernmost tip of Liaodong Peninsula, named Laotieshan, 5 nautical miles from the mainland. This is an important stop for migratory birds on their way across the ocean. There is an island in Bohai Bay called Snake Island, which is only 10 km away from Laotieshan. There are about 20,000 unique poisonous snakes living on it. It is the first national nature reserve in China environmental protection system. Snake Island is1.5km long and 0.7km wide. It is composed of quartzite, and the strata tend to the southeast. The terrain here is steep, with the highest elevation of 2 16 meters. There are many sea caves and a large number of vipers on the island. /kloc-0 was listed as a national nature reserve in the State Council in 1980.

Marine erosion barrier (also known as structural nine-dragon wall)

Jiulongbi is located on Binhai Road in the south of Dalian Development Zone, backed by Tongniu Ridge of Development Zone Scenic Area. The cliff where Longwang Temple is located (facing the sea in the west) is a famous geological "Longwang Temple Site Structure" in China.

The siltstone here was formed in the arid and hot Sabha environment 540 million years ago. Due to strong oxidation, the rocks have formed bright colors, mainly red and yellow, which are banded and irregularly deformed, and the geology is complex and changeable. The scientific name is recumbent folded sea erosion screen (also known as structural Jiulong wall, similar to Beijing Jiulong wall). It is located in the wing of recumbent fold, because cleavage occurred in the late stage of fold, which gives people the phenomenon of rock formation and fold.

Rose garden

Rose Garden is one of the scenic spots in Dalian Binhai National Geopark, located at the southernmost tip of Liaodong Peninsula in Jinshitan Binhai National Geopark, Feng Dan Road, Jinzhou District.

The southeast coastal area of Dalian is a typical stromatolite, and the name of rose stone comes from two points: one is that the algae looks like a blooming rose, and the other is that the rock is bright rose. The rose garden is named after it. Stromatolites are algae trace fossils that grow in intertidal and subtidal zones. Red stromatolites are often used as decorative stones because of their bright colors, and are called "Northeast Red". The strange stone landscape in the rose garden includes: the stone monkey looking at the sea and the tiger looking back.

Ninety-nine Bay (also known as Blonde Cliff)

Jiujiu Island Bay is located at the southern tip of Liaodong Peninsula. It borders the Yellow Sea in the east and the Bohai Sea in the west. The so-called folded cloud cliff refers to the landscape composed of complex folds and deformations on the sea cliff. This scenic spot, called 99 Bay or Blonde, is also at the end of the fold.

It is caused by the different strength of rocks and the different shapes of small structures during folding. Relatively tough thin-plate limestone forms closed small folds due to flattening; The relatively weak thick argillaceous limestone developed cleavage consistent with the axial direction of small folds, and this landform was folded again due to the superimposed cleavage of later structures. Landscape of the main peak of Daheishan

Daheishan, known as the first mountain in southern Liaoning, is also known as Dahengshan. It is located about 4 kilometers east of Jinzhou, with the range of east longitude12179' and north latitude 3910'. The main peak is 663 meters above sea level.

The ancients called the landscape of Daheishan "the scenic spot in the left and southeast corner of Liaoning". There are many historical sites in the mountains. Jinzhou, known as the first scenic spot in southern Liaoning, has eight famous ancient scenic spots, namely, "Xiang", "South", "Mountain City Hanging the Moon" and "Snow in the Chaoyang". The origin of the Great Braque Mountain is the same as that of the European Alps. It drifted from the southern waters along an extremely gentle interface 200 million years ago. The rocks on the mountain and below are completely different. The mountain is Sinian quartzite 800 million years ago, and the mountain is mylonite ductile shear zone formed by napping shear force at the top of Archean metamorphic basement 2.5 billion years ago. On the western slope of Daheishan, there is a winding mountain road leading to the top of the mountain, and there are stone steps to climb the main peak.

Landscape of Lvshunkou in Jungang

It was stationed in the Tang Dynasty. To the east of Koumen is Jinshan Scenic Area, with the main peak at an altitude of 1 19 meters. It is shaped like a lion lying on the sea and was called the lion's mouth in the Yuan Dynasty. The Ming Dynasty changed its name to Lushunkou because it wanted a smooth sea journey. The west side of Shunkoumen in Laohuwei Peninsula is located in the middle of the harbor, which divides the harbor into two ports, the east and the west, to block overseas waves and make the harbor calm. It was formed because Xijiguan Mountain in front of the harbor blocked the wind and waves on the sea surface, and behind the mountain was a low-energy area, and sand flowed and deposited along the coast to form a sand mouth. It is inverted S-shaped in the bay.

Lotus landscape in Baiyun Mountain

Guaipo Eighteen Scenes

Strange slopes and eighteen landscapes are located in Haizhiyun Park in the northern section of Binhai Road in Dalian.

The strange slope is located in the upper part of the eighteenth plate, about 52 meters long and 4 meters wide. It obviously looks like a slope with a high east and a low west. When you come here by bike, the cyclist can drive to the top of the slope without pedaling, otherwise, you have to pedal hard when going downhill. The starting point elevation of the strange slope is140m, and the starting point elevation of the 18th plate is135m.

After a strange slope, eighteen sets. Gully from top to bottom 1000 m, drop 132 m. If eighteen plates were not built with zigzag ileum, the car would not move.

Hutou (Banlashan) Landscape

Hutou landscape is located at the southern end of Binhai Road in Dalian, with the range of east longitude12167' and north latitude 38 87'.

The landscape of Banla Mountain in the west and the steep slope on the east bank of Laohutan Fishing Port in the east are fault landscapes left by the northward movement of fault plates, which are not artificially created. The landform of Banla Mountain is also called Hutou, and the fault triangle is a sign of the existence of faults.

Colorful Dragon Landscape of Longwang Temple in Jinzhou, Dalian

Longwang Temple, located in Wang Long Island on the west coast of Jinzhou, covers an area of 12 1 70' east longitude and 39 10' north latitude. On the cliff on the lower side wall of Longwang Temple, there is a colorful structural dragon landscape. It is an inverted fold, recumbent fold and delayed extension normal fault in the Lower Cambrian strata from 600 million to 570 million years ago, and the strata were folded, thrust and thickened in the nappe structure of the caprock. At the end of the nappe, the strata transformed in the opposite direction, stretched, thinned and fractured, forming the wonders we see today.

Structural landscape of window lattice in Haizhiyun Square

Formerly known as Donghai Park, it is located at the easternmost end of Dalian Seaside Scenic Area and the entrance of the northeast section of Binhai Road. 1At the beginning of 996, Dalian Municipal Government planned to rebuild Binhai Road. Covering an area of more than 450 hectares, it is 0/0 km away from the city center/KLOC-0, with two sides facing the sea, bordering Zhongshan District in Dalian in the north and Bangqu Island Scenic Area in the southwest. It is also the only square in Dalian facing the mountain and the sea.

This is a typical rocky coastal landform, and rocks were formed on ancient beaches. Geological relics include marine erosion landform, wave mark structure and so on. The window lattice structure is named after the parallel columns of European Gothic architecture. Two groups of window lattice structures were formed in limestone 800 million years ago, mainly in the north-south direction, supplemented by the east-west direction. The two groups of structures are superimposed like rows of small fish distributed on the floor.

Chengshantou landscape

Dalian Jinshitan has a famous natural rock geological landscape with an area of 30,000 square meters. Understand the paleogeographic environment, the formation age of geological landforms, geological changes and crustal movement in depth, and provide scientific basis for geological survey.

Jin Shiyuan is the core scenic spot of Jinshitan in Binhai National Geopark. In Jin Shiyuan, people can see isolated sea erosion hills and sloping cliffs, which are called Jin Shiyuan, because the rocks are golden yellow after weathering. The rocks here are striped strongly argillaceous limestone with fine layers of centimeter or even millimeter level, which is located on the upper layer of stromatolite ash layer in the rose garden and was formed about 650 million years ago.

Black Rock Reef Beach Landscape

Dalian Heishijiao Scenic Area is located in Heishijiao Park, No.52 Heishijiao Street, Shahekou District, Dalian. The range is12156' east longitude and 38 86' north latitude. Black rock reef, named after black rock. Black Rock Reef is one of the city symbols of Dalian, and it is also the closest geological attraction to Dalian. The coastline here is tortuous and changeable, and the karst landform-black rocks formed about one billion years ago are all over the headlands. It is the representative of the beautiful natural scenery in Dalian. It is the upper Sinian limestone dolomite about 700 million years ago, which was karstified in the warm climate of Tertiary. Because the neotectonic movement lifted the coastline, the seawater washed away the red clay, forming a coastal karst landscape.
