We have a two-and-a-half hour direct flight from Osaka to Dalian.
Though Dalian has many skyscrapers, it has few famous sightseeing sites.
It is also very difficult to cross roads in Dalian.
Though I often feel scared of reckless cars in other Chinese cities, I think that Dalian is the worst city for pedestrians because of unbalance between too few signals and too many cars.
