Maps for Getting Around.
Map of Dalian in Chinese is easily available from any stalls selling newspapers and hotels. The transportation routes are detailed on the map. It will be easy to use if you know how to read Chinese (han yu). The timetable for train service out of Dalian is on the map as well, but do double check at the station for any changes.
I bought an outdated map for 2000 from a hotel (Hengyuan Hotel) for 2 bucks, whereas all the stalls along the streets are selling maps for 2003. I thought I can trust people in the hotel more than those on the streets, but I was wrong here. :(
