Dangdong was originally known as Andong. It was the seat of a protector-general (a military duty assignment to preside over submitted alien people) in Tang Dynasty and a strategically important border town of military significance. Dangdong was later opened as a port for foreign trade by the then government, which set the pace for its industrialization process to take off and rapid development of its urban businesses. In no time it became the goods traffic node for Liaoning province and east of Jilin province as well. Since then it earned itself the name of "window of import and export".
As the largest seaboard city on the northern border of China, Dandong is naturally endowed, historically imbued and culturally cultivated. It is well known for its scenic beauty and spots of historical interest.

"Not much to do, except if you are planning to go to North Korea"

Average
I went from Dandong to North Korea by train and visited North Korea for 4 days, which is the only reason I went to Dandong. Dandong is the average ugly chinese city, with not much to do. Food was very good, with many korean restaurants.I went to the Jiumenkou great wall section, which was ok with a beautiful view on the Yalu River and North Korea. I also went on a mini cruise on the Yalu River, but the North Korea you see from Dandong (industrialized and ugly scenery) has nothing to do with the scenery you see in North Korea (beautiful countryside...since the country is not industrialized at all ; except a few Pyongyang, I never saw any factories, though the only thing you see of North Korea from Dandong are...factories)
