Dalian Russian Style Street, also known as Tuanjie Street, is located northwest of Shengli Bridge, not far from Dalian Railway Station. The street is lined with Russian-style old buildings constructed over 100 years ago, which are still well-preserved. Walking down the street, one might feel as if they are in a European city. This is a must-see for tourists who enjoy photographing old architecture.


Russian Style Street is less than 500 meters long, with dense Russian-style buildings on both sides. Today, these buildings are mostly occupied by chain hotels and small shops selling Russian matryoshka dolls, telescopes, and Russian cigarettes. However, after being uniformly renovated by the municipal government, visitors can still experience a touch of exotic charm.


The origin of Russian Style Street dates back to the late 19th century when Dalian was forcibly leased by Tsarist Russia and established Darroni City in the area now known as Tuanjie Street, making it one of the oldest Russian-style streets in Dalian and across the country. At the end of the street stands a relatively large Russian-style old building, which was once the site of the Darroni City Hall. Additionally, the beautiful European-style building at the entrance of the street was formerly the site of the Eastern Qing Steamship Company, another well-known classic building.


The street is open all year round, with 24-hour access.
