Xi'an High-tech Small Forest

No need to squeeze into popular tourist spots, no need to compete in fancy camping, I just set up my little stool by Heming Lake in the High-tech Zone, and that’s when I truly grasp the relaxed vibe of weekends in Xi'an. No matter how hectic the outside world gets, this “old self” only recognizes this little forest hidden in the city. Heming Lake in Xi'an is located in the Xi'an High-tech Zone, at the northeast corner of the Silk Road Software City Hechizhai Interchange, covering a total area of about 266,000 square meters, with a water area of about 50,000 square meters. The park is shaded by lush trees, featuring a large lawn, small hills, and pine forests. It’s a great place for camping, taking kids out, and relaxing. It’s open all year round, 24/7, with free admission. There’s no noisy crowd, only the gentle breeze blowing over the lake, just move a stool to the lakeside and sit down, snack on some sunflower seeds and chat a bit, focusing on the freedom of being your “old self.” No one will always be by my side, but I can keep company with my “old self,” sitting by the lake, enjoying the afternoon breeze, and that’s enough! No need to deliberately check in or force poses, slow down the pace, throw your worries into the lake, next time I must bring my little stool, and just be the most carefree “old self” in this little forest~ Full of joy, deeply fond of it, because here you can reach the lakeside directly. The moment your foot steps onto the lakeshore, it feels like tearing open a gentle crack in the tense city life. Days usually filled with traffic and cubicles are softened by this easily accessible lake water, the homely tea smoke, the relaxed anglers, the dazzling golden light on the lake—no need to rush to the outskirts, you can hold this accessible stretch of relaxation right in the city. It turns out that busy city dwellers only want this small piece of nature, a close-to-nature little world.
