A newly opened hotel in Sapporo in 2025 with an excellent location! Just a 4-minute walk to JR Sapporo Station, and the B1 floor is directly connected to the subway, making transportation very convenient. Stayed in a deluxe suite with spacious room and dual sinks, which is a big plus. The window view includes the TV Tower 🗼, and major department stores are within walking distance! Only two stops away from Susukino, this is a hotel I would definitely revisit 🫶🏻

You might think winter in the north is all about skiing, but in Zibo, Shandong, there's a hidden gem that perfectly blends magnificent mountain scenery, thrilling experiences, and rustic villages—the Hongye Shiyan Tourist Area. In winter, it loses the vibrant colors of autumn but gains the charm of ink-wash painting scenery and the wonder of an icy world, making it an excellent choice for a one-day mountain adventure with kids. 🏞️Quick Highlights and Play Strategies • Geographic Interest: Typical karst landforms with exposed rocks in winter, sharp lines, and ice formations adding a unique flavor. • Peak Experience: The suspended glass walkway and glass water slide (check in advance if open in winter) are thrilling yet loved by kids, great for building courage. Crossing the cloud bridge (suspension bridge) is equally exciting. • Cultural Roots: Shiyan Ancient Village (stone house village) and Yanshenli (ancient-style street) offer cultural warmth after hiking, where you can taste local snacks and learn about Boshan culture. • Play Recommendations: Families with kids don’t need to do everything. Core combo: ancient village tour + glass walkway experience + short mountain hike (e.g., near the "Dream Circle"). The park has sightseeing buses to save energy. 🚠Easy Touring Route to Avoid Tired Legs • Effort-saving Essential Route (about 4 hours): Enter from the East Visitor Center, first visit Yanshenli, have breakfast, and soak in the atmosphere. Take sightseeing bus No. 5 directly to near the "Cloud Bridge," then walk the suspended glass walkway challenge. After the walkway, stroll along the ridge trail for a bit to overlook the mountains, then return the same way to the bus stop. Take the bus to the "Shiyan Ancient Village" stop, explore the stone village, and have lunch. Finally, take the sightseeing bus back to the exit. • Physical Challenge Route (about 5-6 hours): Based on the essential route, add a hike from the ancient village to the "Dream Circle" or "Time Tunnel." The mountain path is undulating, suitable for older children. 👶Age-based Family Play Guide • Families with kids aged 3-6: Focus on Yanshenli and Shiyan Ancient Village, experience the stone-paved roads, see old houses, and taste candied hawthorn and roasted sweet potatoes. Use the sightseeing bus for mountain parts, with some gentle walking on flat sections. • Families with kids aged 7-12: Encourage trying the glass walkway. Choose a 1-2 km mountain trail (e.g., behind the ancient village) to let kids enjoy hiking. Play a "treasure hunt" in the village to find the oldest stone mill and the most unique door lintel. • Families with teens 12 and older: Try a more complete hiking loop combining nature adventure and photography, discussing geological formations and village preservation. 🏨Elegant Mountain Lodging Options There are many quality accommodations around the park and in Zibo city: Zibo Hongye Shiyan Cliff Hotel: The most distinctive lodging inside the park, with some rooms built on the cliffside offering stunning views and peaceful mountain nights. Advance booking required. Zibo Qingweilia Hotel (Zen-style guesthouse): Near the park, designed with Zen aesthetics and beautiful courtyards, a great place to relax and rejuvenate. Zibo Sheraton Hotel: If you want to return to the city for high-end service, this is the top choice in Zibo city, with extremely convenient transportation, shopping, and dining. ⚠️Winter Park Tips • Slip Resistance First: Mountain trails may have snow and hidden ice; make sure kids wear shoes with good anti-slip performance, and adults should be cautious too. • Layered Clothing: Big temperature differences between the foot and summit; use layered clothing for easy on and off. Gloves and hats are essential. • Advance Inquiry: Some water and high-altitude activities (like rafting and slides) may be seasonally closed in winter; confirm opening status via Trip.com or the park’s phone before traveling. • Food Bonus: Boshan is an important origin of Shandong cuisine. After your visit, be sure to try Boshan dishes like Boshan fried pork, tofu box, and crispy pot to reward your hiking efforts. Winter at Hongye Shiyan Tourist Area is a fun mountain trip combining activity and tranquility. It lets children test their courage on the glass walkway, satisfy their curiosity in the ancient village’s stone alleys, and fills the whole family’s laughter echoing through the crisp mountain valleys.

The Panjiayuan Antique Market in Beijing is the largest and most popular. How to get there: Line 10, PanjiaYuan Metro Station (Exit C2). I was there on a Sunday around 12:00 PM, when the shops were just starting to open. Saturday is the main day. If you don't know Chinese, porcelain will be very expensive, so I brought a few fashion magazines in Chinese and albums with reproductions of Chinese paintings (10 yen each). There are a ton of antiques! But there's also plenty of modern stuff (beads, stones, tea bowls...) #fleamarket #beijing

Parents bringing kids to Tanxi Mountain in Shandong to see the autumn leaves, take note! This place is truly the hidden top spot for family autumn outings in northern China! Every step up the mountain feels like walking into a colorful fairy tale kingdom, with kids excitedly screaming all the way—here’s our super detailed family route! 🌳 Great value tickets: Entrance fee is 40 RMB per person, free for children under 1.2 meters! We recommend buying the "Glass Walkway + Legend of the Star Cave" combo ticket for 99 RMB. For kids over 4 years old, try the high-altitude rafting combo ticket for 169 RMB (kids love it!). Note that ticket checking stops at 4:30 PM, so it’s best to start early to have enough time to explore. 🚌 Tips for hiking with kids: Strongly suggest taking the shuttle bus to the mid-mountain (save your energy!). For the hiking section, choose the gentle route from Crocodile Ridge to Dragon and Phoenix Terrace. Along the way, there are viewing platforms with railings perfect for taking photos of your kids. The yellow hornbeam leaves are fully red, and the Japanese maple is turning golden. On sunny days, the light and shadow are as beautiful as an oil painting. 🍂 Family-exclusive route plan: After getting off the shuttle bus → Beauty Cave (fun cave exploration) → Sanjiao Temple (rest and snack) → Sky Bridge section (hold your child’s hand and walk slowly) → Dragon Ridge Peak (densest area of red leaves) → finally take the rafting down the mountain (5 minutes of excitement but safe!). The whole trip takes about 3 hours, just right for kids’ stamina. 🧥 Practical tips: Last year, the peak autumn leaves were in late October! Now the Zibo mountain area is starting to turn red, so it’s recommended to go before the end of October! The temperature drops by 10 degrees at sunset on the mountaintop, so be sure to bring a down vest and scarf! There is a hot drink station at the entrance, and remember to prepare gloves for your kids.

Autumn in Zibo is like a richly colorful painting.

While everyone online is telling you how to squeeze onto a barbecue stall, locals quietly pulled me into the backyard of a ceramics factory: "The right way to experience Zibo is with a barbecue skewer in one hand and a thousand-year-old lump of clay in the other!" I tried this mix-and-match itinerary myself, and you can eat, play, and even take home some art 👇 🌞 Day 1: Seamlessly switch from a fiery stomach to an artistic heart 🍢 7:00 AM Rush to Badaju Morning Market for more than just fried pancake rolls! ✅ Hidden missions: 1️⃣ Next to the pumpkin strips, try the "Lao Boshan Jiaozhuang Shaobing" with spicy tofu pudding. 2️⃣ Buy freshly picked white lotus root from Mataku Lake from the aunties with canvas bags (it's crispier than a snow pear when eaten raw). 3️⃣ Pay ¥5 to have a calligraphy master write "Life's a Skewer" as a photo prop for your barbecue feast. 🏺 2:00 PM Zibo China Ceramic Museum: Doing is 10 times better than watching! 🔥 Must-try activities: ▪️ Make a glass ring in the Boshan Ceramics Factory experience area (the blown glass hairpins glow ✨). ▪️ Learn "chicken-fat yellow" ceramic glazing from a master craftsman. Bonus: Tell them you're making a cup for your sweetheart to get an extra half hour of lesson time. 🌃 7:30 PM The right way to enjoy barbecue stalls: ▪️ On Shuijing Street, choose a bustling stall with empty beer crates (they have a fast turnover). ▪️ Fold a small flatbread, dip it in garlic chili sauce and crushed peanuts, and wrap it around two sizzling, fatty pieces of pork belly with the skin on. 💡 Insider tip: Saying "I want the white part of the scallion, not the green part" will earn you silent praise from the boss. 🌿 Day 2: Dive into a healing adventure at the foot of the Great Wall of Qi ⛰️ 9:00 AM Tanxi Mountain Glass Bridge: Don't rush to take photos! ✅ Cheat route taught by mountain folk: 1️⃣ Take the elevator directly to the Star Cave Legend Coffee Shop, order a "Glassy Sea of Clouds" latte, and get a window seat. 2️⃣ Descend via the wooden cliffside walkway and encounter free-roaming lambs vying for the camera's attention. 🍲 12:00 PM Feast in a century-old house in Xihe Town: ▪️ In the blue-brick courtyard, order tofu boxes and smashed fish soup (I secretly learned how to make the hot and sour soup with rice in three bowls). ▪️ The grandma drying persimmons in the backyard will give you walnuts. Compliment her pickled Chinese toon buds, and you might get a whole jar. 🌾 3:00 PM Zhoucun Ancient Commercial Town: Play it differently: ▪️ Pretend to be a shopkeeper at the Da Ran Fang and use an abacus. Wear Hanfu to bargain for sesame seed cakes. ▪️ Find "Cheongsam Tailor Zhang" at the back door of Ruifuxiang and get a museum-collaboration waistline alteration for ¥50. 💥 Three things Zibo locals won't tell you but you need to know: 1️⃣ Hidden perk of the barbecue express bus: Show your ticket at some attractions to get a small glass gift 🎁. 2️⃣ The "niche Boshan restaurant" recommended by your taxi driver might be owned by his mother-in-law, but the eggplant and braised Mandarin fish are truly exceptional. 3️⃣ Don't try to match the locals' breakfast intake! Two yuan's worth of oil powder with a three-delicacy pancake is enough for three girls. Suddenly, I understood the meaning of "a city of porcelain, half a city of forests"—the glass wind chime I hung with my own hands at Hongye Shiyan holds more Zibo memories than any popular photo spot 📸.

Here, history and modernity intertwine to create a beautiful picture. Step into the China Ceramics and Glaze Museum, and you'll feel like you're in a palace of art. The museum is filled with ceramic treasures and exquisite glazed works, all of which tell the story of Zibo's glorious past as the "Capital of Ceramics and Glaze." You'll be immersed in the deep ocean of traditional culture. The Haidai Tower Zhongshuge Bookstore and Haidai Tower Zhongshuge Bookstore Whisky Bar are also stunning. They perfectly combine the ancient charm of the Qi State with the modern charm of books. The unique architectural appearance and the fragrance of books will nourish your soul while you take photos. Zibo's natural scenery is also fascinating. In the Red Leaf Persimmon Rock Scenic Area, Shandong Culture and Tourism · Red Leaf Persimmon Rock Scenic Area, the mountains are covered with green, and the red leaves are like fire. Walking through it, you will see beautiful scenery everywhere. Step on the glass plank road, and you'll see the abyss beneath your feet. Your heart will beat faster as you take in the magnificent mountains and rivers. Ride the glass water slide, and you'll speed through the mountains and forests, enjoying the cool and exciting experience and feeling the vitality of nature. The Zhoucun Ancient Commercial City is like a living history museum. The bluestone road and the ancient shops witness the prosperity and changes of the century-old business. Walking through it, you can almost hear the shouts of the past. The story of "The Dye House" seems to reappear before your eyes, and every photo you take is a retro blockbuster.

The snow has become poetry, intoxicating the tourists. This year, the snow in Zibo is particularly heavy in the past three years. I really want to go to the mountains to enjoy the different snow scenery, but unfortunately the buses to the mountains have basically stopped running, let alone driving by myself. I could only go around the city, and suddenly I remembered that the color of the Cultural and Sports Park should match the snow. When I looked over there, it was like a white fairy tale world. There were many children playing in the snow, and newlyweds taking pictures. Address: Zhengtong Road, Zhangdian District, Zibo City, Shandong Province Navigation | High-tech Zone Cultural and Sports Park Transportation Bus or self-driving is available Photography Travel Guide √Last time the park had a lawn, this time the blizzard completely covered the lawn and it became "Aranya", and you will never get tired of taking pictures of the blocky buildings. √Chinese gardens are a perfect match for snow, they are more low-key and elegant than ancient buildings. Be careful of the slippery roads when taking photos. √ The circular landscape bridge looks very sci-fi from a distance, so don’t wear white clothes, otherwise the characters won’t stand out. Tips If you can’t go to the mountains, you can come here and wait for the sun to come out to take pictures (you can see the snow scenery of Sibao Mountain from a distance), or you can put it together with Sibao Mountain in the classic one-day tour.
