Dandong, a city located in the eastern part of Liaoning Province, a city that carries the historical memory of the Korean War, and a city with many popular attractions. Here, there are both fiery historical years and vibrant modern life. I. The fiery years of the Korean War In 1950, the Korean War broke out. Dandong, as the closest Chinese city to North Korea, became the front line against the US invaders. At that time, Dandong not only undertook the important task of providing material aid to North Korea, but also was the starting point and destination for countless volunteer soldiers. The historical memory of the Korean War in Dandong is not only reflected in the war sites that have been preserved to this day, but also in the memories of those who experienced it. Every building and every piece of land here has witnessed that magnificent history. II. Today's popular attractions Today, Dandong has emerged from the smoke of war and has become a vibrant city. The popular attractions here have both a strong historical and cultural heritage and a distinctive modern character. 1. Korean War Memorial: This is the largest Korean War-themed memorial in China. The museum displays a large number of historical relics and pictures, vividly showing the history of the Korean War. 2. Sino-Korean Friendship Bridge: This bridge connecting China and North Korea is not only a symbol of friendship between the two countries, but also a landmark building in Dandong. On the bridge, there are a large number of tourists taking photos every day. 3. Yalu River Broken Bridge: This broken bridge is a historical witness to the Korean War and one of Dandong's popular attractions. Standing on the broken bridge, you can enjoy the beautiful scenery on both sides of the Yalu River. 4. Dandong New District: This is the future of Dandong. High-rise buildings rise from the ground, showing a modern urban style. The night in the new district is even more romantic. III. Innovative views and solutions 1. Innovative view: Dandong should make full use of its historical resources of the Korean War to create a red tourism brand. Through red tourism, it can not only inherit and promote the spirit of the Korean War, but also promote local economic development. 2.
