The Jiangnan Water Town in the North—Gubei Water Town

The water towns of Jiangnan, with their beautiful scenery, have always been places people yearn for and admire. Especially for northerners, taking a trip to Jiangnan to experience the water town life and appreciate the beauty of the region is a wonderful wish. Due to the long distance, many have given up on this desire, feeling a bit of regret. 📍Detailed Address: However, don't worry, there is a place similar to the Jiangnan water towns right here in Beijing, which is the Gubei Water Town Resort located in Simatai Village, Gubeikou Town, Miyun District, Beijing. Named for its proximity to Gubeikou and its style reminiscent of the Jiangnan water town Wuzhen. The Gubei Water Town Resort is planned as 'six districts and three valleys', namely the Laoying District, Republic of China Street District, Water Street Style District, Wolong Fort Folk Culture District, Tanghe Ancient Village District, Homestay & Dining District, and the valleys of Houchuan Zen, Eden, and Yunfeng Emerald. Covering an area of 96 square kilometers, Gubei Water Town is a comprehensive international tourism and holiday resort that integrates sightseeing, leisure vacations, business exhibitions, and creative culture, with first-class services and facilities, and a high level of participation and experience. Recently, I went to Gubei Water Town with my family, and I heard that staying there for one night would be even more beautiful. 🌟Highlights: We chose a hotel with great value for money and stayed for one night, and indeed, the night view was incredibly beautiful. After a day of exploring the various style districts in the water town, or even climbing the Simatai Great Wall, take a rest in the afternoon, and come out at night to enjoy the natural scenery of the water town reflected by the moonlight, as well as the beautiful night view created by the lights. Every spot is picturesque, each revealing the unique characteristics of Gubei Water Town. 🚉Transportation Tips: If you are driving to the water town, just open the navigation system, and it will accurately direct you to the location of the water town. Now, from the Dongzhimen Outer Bus Hub in Beijing, there is a direct bus line to Gubei Water Town, and the suburban railway can also get you there. There are many attractions in the water town, so if you want to walk more, you might as well take your time and stroll around. For those who are too lazy to walk or are elderly and frail, there are also sightseeing ferry cars available inside. 👍Most Recommended: The scenery of Gubei Water Town is like something out of a painting, making you not want to move on from each spot. Compared to the flowers, I still like the weeping willows there the most. The feeling of the willow leaves fluttering as if desiring immortality, as if in a dream, is intoxicating. We booked our hotel through Ctrip. If you plan to stay there for a night, it's best to book in advance. Otherwise, now that it's the peak tourist season, it would be quite embarrassing not to have a reservation.
