Liáoyáng (辽阳) is a prefecture level city in Liaoning Province of China. It was once one of the most important cities in the north east of China and briefly was the Capital of the Manchurian Late Jin Dynasty. Nowadays, Liaoyang is overshadowed by it's larger neighbour Anshan, just 23km to the south and west. To the north is the provincial capital, Shenyang and to the east lies the city of Benxi.

The city first developed during the Yuan dynasty. The famous White Pagoda of Liaoyang and neighbouring temple, date to this time. In the following Ming dynasty, Liaoyang continued to be the principal city of the Liaoning area. The Manchurian's captured Liaoyang at the end of the Ming dynasty and made it their capital city. With the subsequent capture of Shenyang, the capital was moved away from Liaoyang and Shenyang began to over shadow Liaoyang.

Tourist Attractions

Liaoyang is a surprising location for any tourist. Far from the normal tourist routes, in the industrial north east of China, the city is not on most people's itinerary. However, due to the age and former importance of the city, there is plenty for the traveller to see. There are several temples, including one extremely large temple. There are also more than the average number of museums. For the winter traveler, there are also  several nearby ski centres.

Below is a list of tourist attractions in Liaoyang:

emple has covered an area of about 90,000 square meters. It has 200 alters for worship and is the largest place for the Buddhist activities in northeast China. 

Liaoyang (辽阳; Liáoyáng) is a city in Liaoning Province in China. This is an ancient city with a long history going back over 2400 years. Liaoyang had been the major city of Liaodong (eastern Liaoning) province since the Waring States Period (475-221 BC). When Nurhachi united the Manchurian tribes and founded the Late Jin Dynasty, Nurhachi moved his capital to Liaoning. An imperial palace was built there in 1621. The new capital was renamed Dongjing (East Capital). The city measured 900m east to west and 840m north to south. The city wall was 11 metres high with two gates on either side. However, this palace was barely completed when Nurhachi moved his court yet again to the city of Shenyang in 1625. Nowadays, little remains of the old palace but some walls and gates are visible. In 1904, Battle of Liaoyang was fought as one of the major battles of the Russo-Japanese War. After the end of the second world war and the Chinese civil war, Liaoyang became a centre for heavy industrial development. It is somewhat overshadowed by the now larger neighbours of Shenyang and Anshan but remains one of the key cities of Liaoning province.
