The Tonglu Equestrian Park is an amazing one-stop experience.

Last year, I made reservations for many venues for the Asian Games, but unfortunately, I couldn't get a reservation for the Tonglu Equestrian Park. Today, I finally got to visit the equestrian park! It turned out to be bigger and more interesting than I imagined. 🅿️ Parking: I drove from Hangzhou, and it took about an hour and a half to get there. It's more convenient to park your car in Parking Lot 1 to visit the venue. 🏟️ Venue: (Not open to the public on regular days) There is an elevator on the left side of the entrance. The second floor of the venue is an exhibition hall, with exhibitions of horse paintings, paper cuttings, costumes from different countries, cultural and creative products, etc. You can see the outdoor venue after passing through the exhibition hall. Standing on the stands, you can still feel the excitement and cheers of the Asian Games. . ✔️ I arrived at noon, just in time for the royal carriage parade. The scene with the black swans 🦢 was a pleasant surprise, and it felt like I was in a fairy tale. It was amazing! ✔️ The dance of the "A Panorama of Rivers and Mountains" was performed in the area surrounded by the Tianmu Mountains, perfectly showcasing the beauty of Jiangnan. ✔️ The "Snatching the Bride" performance with a big sedan chair made me feel like I was in Mongolia. The handsome young men on horseback were all so dashing. ✔️ The Equestrian Park Ranch is a must-visit place for families with kids. There are many wooden horses for photo taking. The surrounding lawn is also a great place for taking photos. If you're lucky, you might even see a prince on a black horse. ✔️ When we were about to leave, we passed by the outdoor performance area. We heard that there was a highlight performance called "Horse Battle". So we immediately found a seat, ordered a cup of coffee, and waited for the horse battle to begin. I watched the whole performance standing up. It lasted about 15 minutes, and I was amazed the whole time. It was really wonderful! . ⏰ Time needed: 1 day Performance schedule (for reference): Tianma Welcome 10:00–10:05 Jie Jin Horse Team Performance 10:40–11:00 Dance with Horses 11:10–11:15 A Panorama of Rivers and Mountains 11:40–11:50 Chu-Han War Song 14:00–14:30 Jie Jin Horse Team Parade 14:30–15:20 Yulong March 15:00–15:05 Professional Equestrian Obstacle Course 15:30–15:35 Big Sedan Chair 16:10–16:20 . 🏞️ Nearby attractions: Yaolin Wonderland, Tianmu River Rafting 🕌 Recommended hotel: Kaiyuan Senbo Resort Knight Hotel.
