Shenyang - Post Report Question and Answers
Do you feel that it is safe to walk, run or hike outside? Are there areas where bike riding is possible? What is the availability and safety of outdoor space for exercising? Are these easily accessible?
Extremely safe from the crime aspect, but it can be scary to walk and avoid getting hit by scooters on the sidewalks. There is construction everywhere, so you often have to walk in the street. Bikes are possible but you need to be very careful because the cars use a "bigger is better" approach and do not give bikes the right of way. There are some very nice parks and a river bike path for exercise, but it's only warm enough to use for half of the year. It can be very dusty and dirty outside, so it isn't always pleasant to exercise outside. - Jun 2024
