Dalian also has good connections with the rest of China. The Harbin high-speed passenger railway opened in 2012, and provides a gateway to North China. Dalian Airport has frequent connections to Beijing (55 minutes) and Shanghai (two hours), as well as international flights to Japan and Korea.
China has recently overtaken Japan to become the second largest economy in the world behind the United States, and Dalian is playing its part as a thriving port city.
