May Day Travel: Qinhuangdao Offers More Than Just Aranya | Super Artistic Xigang Garden

📍Detailed address: Qinhuangdao City, Haigang District, the west side of the intersection of Dongshan Street and Nanshan Street. 🚉Transportation strategy: Self-driving is recommended, as there are multiple parking lots within the scenic area. Parking fee is 3 yuan for the first 2 hours. If you choose to get off at Qinhuangdao Station by train, it's relatively close. A taxi ride of about fifteen minutes will cost you just over ten yuan. 💰Average cost per person: Admission: Free admission, opening hours: 9:00-21:00, ⏳Recommended duration of visit: 2-3 hours should suffice. ✅Must-experience: ① Laogang Road Pedestrian Street (Old Shipyard, South Warehouse) route: A leisurely stroll, photo opportunities, and dining are concentrated along this route, which leads to the seaside. There are many popular photo spots along the way, where you can enjoy the sea breeze and have a pleasant time. ② Jia Wharf route: This is a sightseeing route. During peak season, there are tour vehicles available. You can take photos of abandoned railways, trains, sailboats, and view the Bohai Sea introduction and graffiti wall. There are also gravity-defying facilities for children to play with. Now it's the off-season, so we just drove around for a look. 🗓Itinerary: 1. For those who are short on time, it is recommended to focus on route ① of Laogang Road, where there are more photo-worthy and fun places. You can park at either Parking Lot No. 1 or No. 6. Lot No. 6 is closer to the dining district, while No. 1 is near the Railway Flower Sea. 2. There are several photogenic spots along route ①: The Railway Flower Sea, where roses bloom in May; The seaside photo frame, which looks average but is great for silhouette shots; the seaside lighthouse, the beach is not open, so you can only take distant shots of the scenery; Kai Bu Di 1898, which has a sense of history. 3. If time permits, go in the afternoon to experience the sunset🌇 by the sea. The scenery is beautiful and healing. 🍽Dining recommendations: There is a dining district with not many restaurants, but it's better to enjoy some coffee. Yishanshu has an unbeatable atmosphere, and the coffee is good too. However, it's located on the outskirts, near Parking Lot No. 1 at the entrance of the scenic area. 🌟Highlights: Kai Bu Di Post Office allows you to send postcards, which are quite worth it at around 5.8 yuan each. Xigang No. 1 Store and the Imported Goods Exhibition and Experience Center are good for a little stroll. The items are reasonably priced, and the roses at the entrance are very popular. Located opposite Parking Lot No. 1 at the entrance of the scenic area, next to Yishanshu Coffee.
