newbie to this site 1 Month, 3 Weeks ago  
hi all. new guy here. living in bj but plan to visit dalian next month. my buddy lives there and wish to see him before he takes off to head back to canada.

been living in bj for 5 years now and never seen another city. its time to go somewhere so dalian is first on the list. then maybe sichuan

im pretty low key. don't do bars, just prefer quiet places.

mountains etc etc.

does anyone know how far i would have to go to see a really dark sky? i love astronomy

peace

Hi bj_dave, Dalian is a small place,it won't take too long to goto country side to see a dark sky.

I know there is a quite/nice place for coffee though. talk to you soon

If you live downtown, or in the city center of KFQ then you're going to get a lot of ambient light. But maybe if you go up to Jinshitan you'll get your dark sky

Yeah - Yap's is right... heck even half an hour out of town and you'll be doing good.
