Highlights

Why Join This Experience This experience offers a unique opportunity to explore the real daily life of Shenyang. Instead of visiting typical tourist attractions, you will start the day at a lively local morning market, discover authentic Northeast Chinese ingredients, and try to learn how to buy fresh food and bargain with local people. You will then take part in a hands-on dumpling cooking experience, one of the most beloved traditions in Northern China. From choosing ingredients at the market to wrapping dumplings by hand, you’ll enjoy a fun and interactive cultural activity. By the end of the experience, you won’t just taste dumplings—you’ll understand the stories, flavors, and traditions behind them.

About Shenyang

Shenyang, the capital of Liaoning, was the Qing dynasty's first capital before Beijing, and still has an imperial palace and two royal tombs.

Known to the Manchu rulers as Mukden, Shenyang was made their capital by Nurhaci in 1625, and his successors built the Imperial Palace, a compact complex of halls and courtyards in Manchu, Mongol and Han styles, before the court moved to Beijing in 1644. The palace is a World Heritage site, as are the Fuling and Zhaoling tombs of early Qing rulers on the edges of the city.
