Chengde Mountain Resort Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Apr)
Travel guide for Chengde Mountain Resort
Could it be that Emperor Kangxi, who has a solid literary foundation, would make a typo?
Of course not, it is said that this is a variant character in the sense of calligraphy!
The word 'avoid' has the meaning of evasion, and it is also used to distinguish between summer evasion and evasion.
Chengde Mountain Resort is really big,
8 times the size of the Forbidden City, 2.5 times the size of the Summer Palace.
It is also the largest existing classical royal garden in the world!
Entering from the beautiful main gate is the palace area and the Palace Museum,
The place where the emperor handles government affairs, holds ceremonies and lives.
Don't miss the 'typo' plaque and the Danbo Jingcheng Hall!
After coming out of the mountainous area, you must buy a 60r ring mountain car,
It's definitely worth it, sitting in the driver's seat, it's a surprise and exciting!
The whole journey stops three times,
Look at Chengde's city appearance, Little Potala Palace and Cold Palace respectively.
The view of the Little Potala Palace from a distance,
It really presents a different kind of beauty!
Due to time constraints, I didn't go to the plain area, I only visited the lake area,
The beauty of the south of the Yangtze River is really not attractive enough for a person from Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai,
But in late summer and early autumn, it's quite comfortable to walk around the lake~

The Chengde Mountain Resort, also known as the 'Chengde Imperial Outlying Palace', is located at No
6 Shanzhuang East Road, Shuangqiao District, Chengde City, Hebei Province. The construction of the Chengde Mountain Resort began on a large scale during the reign of Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty. It was built by the Qing emperors to achieve the political purpose of pacifying and uniting the ethnic minorities on China's frontiers and consolidating national unity.
The Chengde Mountain Resort is mainly divided into two parts: the palace area and the garden area. The site selection and overall design were based on the characteristics of the terrain and landscape, fully utilizing the natural topography, following the mountains and waters, and going with the flow. It is a masterpiece of creativity that embodies the culmination of ancient Chinese garden and architectural arts.
The palace area is located in the southern part of the resort, covering an area of 102,000 square meters. The palace buildings are numerous and orderly, serving as a miniature of the Forbidden City. It includes four groups of buildings: the main palace, Songhe Zhai, Wanhe Songfeng, and the East Palace. The garden area is further divided into the lake area, the plain area, and the mountainous area, with the lake area to the north of the palace area.
The layout of the palace area of the Chengde Mountain Resort is rigorous, with simple architecture, while the garden area has a natural and wild charm. The palaces and natural landscapes are harmoniously integrated, achieving a return to nature. The buildings in the garden are not large in scale, and the halls and walls mostly use green bricks, grey tiles, and natural wood, which are elegant, dignified, simple, and moderate.
During the reigns of Emperors Kangxi and Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty, they spent about half of each year in Chengde. Important national affairs such as politics, military, ethnic, and foreign affairs in the early Qing period were all handled here. Therefore, the Chengde Mountain Resort also became a secondary capital and the second political center outside Beijing.

Jinshanling Great Wall Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Apr)
Photographer’s Paradise (Jinshanling)
This part of the Great Wall is known as a photographer’s paradise. It is very quiet and the surrounding scenery is spectacular. Located in Hebei Provence, it is about 2.5 hours from Beijing and only partially restored. Jinshanling is one of the best preserved parts of the wall and is a great hike up. It is open from 8am to 5pm and wonderful all year round.
spring - for the blossoms
summer - for the greenery
autumn - for the leaves
winter - for the snow
It is about 10km long but only 5-6km are open to the public.
I would suggest getting a private driver who will wait for you as it may prove difficult to call a cab willing to take you all the way into Beijing. A private driver is cost-effective if you’re traveling as a group.
#gooutside #greatwall #hiking
The Great Wall of China is one of the Seven Wonders of the World, and for good reason! Our trip to the Jinshanling section of the wall was the most surreal experience of 2019. The wall is so historically significant and I could feel the history with every step! Consider adding the Great Wall of China to your 2020 travel goals 😁

Crowds come and go, all bustling for the beauty of blossoms
Yesterday was the second day of the Qingming Festival mini-holiday, coinciding with the opening of the 12th Jinshanling Great Wall Apricot Flower Festival. In this vibrant season, when all things are flourishing, more than 20,000 tourists flocked to the Jinshanling Great Wall to partake in a springtime floral event. They came to see the hills blanketed with apricot blossoms, to witness the serpentine Great Wall, to gaze upon the ethereal fragrance of flowers mingling with the fairyland of the Wall, and to appreciate the full expression of Chinese aesthetics.
Standing atop the Great Wall, one can look out over the overlapping peaks and the winding walls, like a giant dragon traversing through the mists of history, narrating the vicissitudes of a thousand years.
You make us feel the profound depth and greatness of history, and also make us cherish the peace and tranquility of the present even more. Every visit here stirs my emotions, as if I become one with this ancient land.
The Jinshanling Great Wall is an eternal ode, and an immortal epic. It is not just a barrier, but a legend. It has witnessed the bloody battles of countless brave soldiers, as well as the indomitable spirit of the Chinese nation.
Touching these stone bricks, the pulse of history throbs, and my soul is shaken. Walking on the Great Wall, each stone brick underfoot bears the heavy weight of history. They have withstood the test of wind, frost, rain, and snow, yet remain as solid as ever, telling of the wisdom and resilience of the ancients.

Zhongguo Mazhen Wuma World Theme Amusement Park Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Apr)
Living in the south all year round, there is very little opportunity to see snow, let alone experience snow activities! This time I came to China's Ma Town and finally got a wish. It was such a great experience to ride a snowmobile on the snow. With the opening of the Mazhen Binghuo Festival, I can still experience the hot pot on the ice. The hot pot made by the ice sculpture is eating a hot pot. Its full of fun when its ice!
How can I have a different wedding? "Get married soon"!
July 7, "Get married soon"!
Hahaha, of course not me~~
"Immediately Married" is a unique "marriage on horseback" that I was invited to attend yesterday. As you know, there are more small sisters around me, so I also participated in a lot of weddings. However, I want to say: This wedding on horseback is the most handsome wedding I have ever attended, no one!
There are a total of nine couples of weddings held yesterday. The wedding takes three forms: Chinese wedding, Western wedding, Manchu wedding. In order to avoid fighting (joking, joking), the new people are drawing lots to decide their form of welcome. However, in each form, the organizer China Mazhen has carefully prepared a rich ceremony. For example, Chinese weddings, newcomers dressed in Chinese clothes to "worship the world", "to pick up the bride" and other links, to restore the ancient traditional wedding ceremony; Manchu wedding, is a special ethnic style, the brides dressed in Manchu traditional flag uniforms, the ceremony also has Sa Full of blessings. Pick up the bridal link, in the distinctive "Zhaoyu Building", "Manchu Wedding Hall" and "Mengma Hotel". Through the atmosphere, Ma Street presents the Jianghu World in the martial arts, so that both newcomers and tourists can feel the tea horse memory of the millennium.
After the wedding ceremony, the newcomers came to the grass field and entered the pair with a pair of horses.
, read the vows, exchange rings...
Then, dozens of horses ran around the grass and sent blessings. The scene is very shocking!
Why do you want to host such a unique "marriage on horseback"? The organizer said that because the horse is a loyal animal, holding a wedding on horseback is not only a form of innovation, but also has a very profound and beautiful meaning, that is, telling everyone to be loyal to marriage. At the same time, it is hoped that by holding a wedding on horseback, people will pay attention to the wedding ceremony and Chinese traditional marriage culture. In the solemn and grand wedding, feel the sacredness and purity of marriage, and lay the foundation of happy marriage.
Let's talk about the venue for the wedding. This wedding was held at the China Mazhen Tourist Resort on the grassland of Fengningba. This is a resort that features horse culture and features a grassland experience and a snow experience.
The Chinese Ma Town Tourist Resort has a dance horse world theme park, food street, bar, hotel and large-scale performance theater.
Ma Town, China is located in the north of Datan Town, Prairie, Fengning, Hebei. It is nestled in Inner Mongolia grassland in the north, Chongli in the winter Olympic Games in the west, and Chengde Mountain Resort in the east. It is 86 kilometers away from Fengning County and 260 kilometers away from Beijing. The scenic area relies on the rich natural and human resources of the Bashang grassland, with the theme of horse culture, featuring shaman culture, totem culture, hunting culture and horseback culture. It is a collection of hotel groups, performing arts groups, theme parks, roast sheep food street, etc. A large, high-end tourism complex.
The Dance Horse World Theme Park has specially opened up a snow and ice field. There are many beautiful snow sculptures and ice sculptures in the park, as well as many family-based entertainment projects such as horse-drawn sledges and snowmobiles. Can fully experience the participation and interest brought by the world of ice and snow.

Shenxiangu Qicai Forest Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Apr)
Chengde Bashang Fairy Valley Colorful Forest, a leisurely summer retreat for mushroom picking
For northern friends, heading to the grasslands in summer has become an indispensable ritual. Watching the sunrise and sunset, galloping on horses, these must-experience grassland activities are checked off year after year, which can lead to a bit of aesthetic fatigue. So this year, try something different on the grassland—mushroom picking.
Not all milk is called Telunsu, and not all grasslands have mushrooms. The nearest grassland to Beijing, and the quickest for friends from Beijing, Tianjin, and Hebei to reach, is the Bashang in Chengde, Hebei. Here, there are vast meadows, blue skies, wildflowers, and herds of cattle and sheep. To find mushrooms, you need to head to the forested areas—the Fairy Valley Colorful Forest.
The Fairy Valley Colorful Forest is located within Fengning Datan Town in Chengde, Hebei. The grassland is its backdrop, and the forest is its essence. All the fun of the grassland is there, plus you can ride a horse into the forest and encounter fairy tales that belong to the forest.
August is the most beautiful season on the grassland, and also the mushroom harvest season for the Colorful Forest. The flat boardwalks lead deep into the forest, and along the way, you can explore different styles of mushrooms that bring unexpected surprises like little sprites in the forest.
Compared to flowers, plants, and trees, the 'mushroom life' is quite short, but beneath their delicate appearance, they exude an exceptionally strong vitality.
The Colorful Forest is the perfect place for a family trip. The entire scenic area has a strong fairy tale vibe, with colorful little cabins dotted along the road, and cartoon-shaped trees and castles full of cuteness. Children love it, and even adults feel like they've become kids again, suddenly rediscovering the joy of childhood.
At night, naturally, you should end the perfect Colorful Forest trip in the embrace of the grassland with a meal of delicious food and a bonfire. Roasted mutton is available nationwide, but only the grassland offers the purest and most authentic taste. The crispy and tender mutton, sizzling with oil, tempts everyone's appetite. Even those who usually don't like mutton can't help but take a few bites here.
The grassland is a wonderful world. Here you can encounter large windmills, sunny rain, rainbows after the rain, and countless mushrooms. August has arrived, so act quickly. If you miss this limited edition 'mushroom season' of the Colorful Forest, you'll have to wait until next year.
Autumn should be wonderful, if you are still around
Autumn should be wonderful, if you are still around... Driving from the Qise Senlin International Tourism Resort in Shenxian Valley, Fengning Bashang, Chengde, Hebei to the Khansur International Eco-Ranch on the Ulan Butong Grassland in Inner Mongolia, the scenery along the way is endlessly beautiful. The autumn in the north is so rich and stunning, making it the perfect time to visit the grasslands for an autumn vacation.
The magnificent landscapes of our motherland, the vast grasslands, the endless forests, taking a stroll, a look, and a pause, the world is so beautiful! It's hard not to feel refreshed in body and mind, as nature's miraculous work creates such beautiful scenery. Travel is about going from a place where you are tired of living to a place where others are tired of living, and then being amazed!
The warm sun of autumn, the autumn breeze blowing the autumn leaves dancing in the air, the white clouds floating in the blue sky, as if they were cotton candy that you could reach out and grab. Such a beautiful and enchanting autumn, such a vast grassland, such wonderful times, I hope we can all cherish them well. Action speaks louder than words
Roam the colorful forest
If you come to the colorful forest, I suggest you walk the 5-kilometer-long wooden plank road. Shuttle between the forest, lake, and wetland, freely and happily breathing the fresh air, the afternoon sun shines through the tree gaps, and there is a lazy, comfortable, and free taste everywhere.
Come to the forest ranch, you can walk on the grass with beautiful and clever deer, or have afternoon tea with cute and silly alpacas, and then wait for the sunset, the earth is golden, and the most beautiful autumn color of this season is in sight.
I ran 600 kilometers for this window view
It's tiring but worth it!
Contracting a window, exclusively enjoying the fairy autumn scenery on the dam, waking up in the morning to see the autumn scenery of the forest, comfortable and cozy.
Reverse tourism, very few people~ This long holiday is perfect!

Great places to avoid the crowd during the National Day, Enshi's beautiful scenery awaits your exploration!
During the National Day Golden Week, everyone is looking for niche travel destinations, right? Just like everyone else, I can't bear to waste the rare statutory holiday, so I took advantage of the National Day to visit places like Western Sichuan, Gannan, Qinghai-Tibet, Xinjiang, etc. However, it is expected that these places will be crowded this year, which is daunting. Today, I recommend a low-key good place in Hubei to everyone - Enshi! Most of the attractions here are free! Enshi is known as the world's selenium capital, Hubei's Xianbenna, and the forest sea of western Hubei, definitely worth a visit! Free attractions recommendation: 1. Wangcheng Slope: Known as the 'City of Love' of Enshi, you can enjoy the sunrise and overlook the beautiful scenery of Enshi. 2. Wood Ear Mountain Tea Garden: Continuous tea mountains, full of green, refreshing. 3. Fu'er Mountain: Known as the Little Xinjiang of Hubei, the slope meadows, flocks of sheep. 4.

Pao'er Mountain: Along the way, there are 'Twilight Forest' of Chaotian Bamboo, where you can find the mysterious forest secret realm. 7. Pengjiazhai: Beautiful Tujia village, a good place to experience local customs. 8. Lichuan Qiyue Mountain: Windmill Mountain, if you are lucky, you can encounter a sea of clouds. 9. Lichuan Cold Land: Forest secret realm, beautiful sunset and windmill, you can stay in the nearby camp, the environment is beautiful. Paid attractions recommendation: 1. Luyuanping: Fissures, waterfalls, and strange peaks are all available, similar to the scenery of the Enshi Grand Canyon, but more niche. 2. Pingshan Grand Canyon: Hubei's Xianbenna, the only recommended place that might be crowded, the scenery is very worth seeing. If you want to go, be sure to get up early! There are always some special beautiful moments in the journey, I hope at that moment we can drink with the green mountains, and feel the slightly drunk happiness in nature. Do you know any other interesting and fun niche travel spots? Welcome to discuss in the comments section!
