Dandong Travel Guide
China
Dandong is a Chinese border city of 917,936 people in the country’s north-east, beside the Yalu River opposite North Korea. It is an important crossing point between China and the Korean Peninsula.
Most air travellers arrive via Dandong Langtou Airport (DDG), the airport serving the city. There are no notable named beaches within 40 kilometres of Dandong, so the nearby coast is not a principal reason to choose the city.
