Benxi by the Guanshan Lake
"Benxi, this land blessed by nature, captivates people with its unique charm of beautiful mountains, clear waters, and a sense of freedom. Today, I had the fortune to step foot by Guanshan Lake in Benxi, and I deeply felt the gentleness and grandeur of nature.
By the Guanshan Lake, the green mountains are like ink paintings, with layers upon layers of peaks, quietly unfolding before my eyes. The lake water ripples with emerald waves, clear to the bottom, reflecting the blue sky, white clouds, and mountain shadows, creating a breathtaking beauty. As the breeze blows, the lake surface ripples delicately, bringing a touch of coolness, yet also an immense sense of comfort and relaxation.
Walking along the lakeside path, shaded by green trees and filled with the fragrance of flowers and the sounds of birds, it feels like being in a paradise far from the hustle and bustle. Every deep breath brings the fresh and sweet scent of nature, making one feel refreshed and all worries and troubles vanish.
Guanshan Lake in Benxi is not just a scenic spot but also a haven for the soul. Here, people can temporarily forget the noise and busyness of the city, finding inner peace and freedom. Whether walking alone or enjoying the scenery with family and friends, one can gain a rare sense of joy and satisfaction.
Today's trip has given me a deeper understanding and appreciation of Benxi's beautiful mountains, clear waters, and sense of freedom. In the future, I will definitely set foot on this beautiful land again to continue exploring more unknown landscapes and stories."

Benxi Guanshan Lake Lightning Avoidance Guide (Super Complete Strategy)
📍 Took a self-driving trip with mom and dad. Sisters who are not in a hurry can take the bus, the time is about the same.
🅿️ There is parking available inside the park. 🚗 If you drive, you can enter directly with your ticket 🎫.
📍 At the entrance is the 【Bamboo Raft】. When it's not crowded, there's no time limit, but you have to paddle yourself.
📍 Walk further from the bamboo raft, and you will find the 【Big Airplane】 where you can go up to view the cockpit and take photos, and even simulate a takeoff (takeoff requires an additional fee).
📍 Right in front of the airplane is the 【Cave】. Cross the popular bridge to reach the entrance of the cave, where it's nice and cool inside.
📍 After exiting the cave, there are two routes to choose from, but both lead to the same destination. You can either choose to climb the mountain (climb the stairs from the cave exit to reach the 【Fortune Longevity Temple】, and pass through the temple to get to the 【Glass Viewing Platform】), or choose to take a vehicle (which costs 10 yuan per person one way). You can also follow the sightseeing car's route on foot, which is not far, just over ten minutes to the 【Glass Viewing Platform】, where the scenery is very beautiful.
‼️ If you're physically fit, just walk; there's no need to take the vehicle because you'll find that it's only a 3-minute ride to the next stop for 10 yuan 😄‼️
Near the 【Glass Viewing Platform】, there are attractions like 【Boat Sightseeing】, 【Rainbow Slide】, and 【Glass Drifting】. Note that both the Rainbow Slide and Glass Drifting go downwards, so you can play them after coming back. For boat sightseeing, board at Pier 1. The boat has two levels, with a windy and sunny deck offering great views, and a glass-enclosed cabin. Take a round trip around Red Leaves Lake and disembark at Pier 2, then follow the path to a fork in the road, which is actually interconnected. Going down the stairs will take you to 【Dragon King Pavilion】, where you can see small fish, buy some cultural and creative products, and take photos in costumes. Exiting the Dragon King Pavilion leads to a small rest plaza.
📍 Past the plaza is the 【Pet Paradise】 with alpacas, peacocks, pigs, deer, and other small animals. There's a vegetable feeding station at the entrance of Pet Paradise (30 yuan per portion). If you buy it, remember to 'hide' it because the animals will jump on you to snatch it.
📍 Opposite the entrance of Pet Paradise is the 【Jungle Tank】. 📍 Further up is the 【Savage Valley】, where there are 'savages'! ‼️ It's very photogenic ‼️
Following the stream in Savage Valley, you'll come across the 【Phoenix Flight Stage】 where performances are held. At this point, I turned back and didn't continue upwards to the 【Dragon Flight Platform】 because I was in a hurry to get home. I feel that if you walk the whole way, the distance between each sightseeing spot is not very far. If you have the physical strength, I don't recommend taking the electric cart. Of course, if there are elderly people, children, or pregnant women, you should take the vehicle. For young people, just walk!
Exiting Savage Valley, the shaded path can take you all the way to Pet Paradise, which is very photogenic! Moreover, the stream is cool, and the water is clear to the bottom. Walking down the mountain, you will pass the 【Time Tunnel】. Since I took the boat, I didn't pass it on the way up. After passing through the Time Tunnel, you will find the 【Rainbow Slide】 and 📍【Glass Drifting】, which require an additional fee and are optional. Both attractions take you directly down the mountain after playing.
If you don't play, it's also about a five-minute walk to the bottom of the mountain.
