Tianjin Jie Night Market

Stretching several blocks along Tianjin Jie from the train station to a giant incense-bowl sculpture, this outdoor market, open during the evenings, offers outdoor venues to eat barbecued seafood and other snacks with a beer.

There’s also a smaller but better market around Sanba Sq near the Carrefour Supermarket with outdoor barbecue stalls and seating, in addition to an abundance of fruit stands.

In the late spring, this old road fixed with shops, with another line of merchants in the center, is an exceptionally well known area in downtown Dalian. A good old fashioned atmosphere from where you purchase stuff from stalls on the pavement.
