"He who has not climbed the Great Wall is not a true man," goes the saying. It's a great patriotic education destination for families, especially during the crisp autumn season. Transportation is convenient, and facilities are comprehensive. For families with children, I recommend taking the cable car and then walking to the watchtower.
Badaling great wall has an easy transportation route for solo backpacker. The sunset view really nice.

Finally arrived at Universal Studios! I've been looking forward to it for so long! Every ride was fun, and the shops were great too – I ended up doing a huge shopping spree. My favorite was the Harry Potter-themed Hippogriff ride; it was both dreamy and thrilling. Riding it at sunset offers a unique sunset experience, which is very romantic. The restaurants were also quite good. I'll definitely come back for more! 🥰
Of course worth the visit but try to avoid Chinese national holidays. Otherwise you will stand at the queue all day.

The whole place can be completed within an hour or two. But we stayed and had some meals at the level 2 restaurant just so we can see their night scenery. It was cold and having strong wind that day, hence Labubu performance was cancelled 😩
Every corner is thoughtfully decorated, so fans of these IPs will be overwhelmed. All the staff are very friendly and welcoming, and some even proactively offer stickers. The shop has many limited-edition theme park items, all of which are exquisite. It wasn't crowded on a weekday, and there were basically no lines, making it very comfortable. The only downside is that the place is a bit small; looking forward to the new map!

Visiting a wildlife park in winter is fantastic! There are very few people, and the animals spend a lot of time outdoors. I especially recommend the miniature train, the sightseeing bus in the predator enclosure where you can feed the animals, and the red panda enclosure where you can get up close and touch the red pandas. The driver of the Red 6 sightseeing bus we took was very entertaining. We saw brown bears, black bears, tigers, lions, and wolves the whole way—no other predators! The kids had a blast.
The park is quite large overall, with a wide variety of animals; it feels like it would be difficult to see everything in one day. It's not too crowded on weekdays, so the experience is generally good. However, there's a queue for the predator enclosure in the morning, but it's shorter in the afternoon. Also, the animals there don't seem to be in very good condition; hopefully, the park can improve the animals' health.

We had a great time, it was the first time I'd ever seen a panda
It’s definitely worth a visit to the Panda Pavilion in Beijing Zoo. The ticket to the panda pavilion is single entry, once you exit the panda pavilion you can’t re-enter but you could get a new ticket if you want to. There’s a very nice cafe inside the panda pavilion, it’s on the first floor. There are coffee and desserts. There are three pandas at the Olympic house and two pandas at the Asian games house. The zoo opened at 7:30am but the panda pavilion opened at 8am. The pandas are all behind glass wall therefore it’s difficult to capture photos or videos without reflections. There’s a metro station right outside the zoo. There are plenty of food, drinks and souvenirs shops inside the zoo. I don’t think there’s a toilet inside the panda pavilion but within the zoo there are plenty of toilets available.

A great experience! My child loved it. The facilities were new and plentiful. It was clearly well-arranged. The kitchen was fully equipped, and they even provided mosquito repellent patches and other necessities for children – very thoughtful. The owner's recommendations for restaurants and other places to eat were excellent. I'll definitely come back!
It was a fantastic experience. We toured the interior of a real aircraft carrier, watched stunt car shows and water performances, and the final, spectacular long-running fireworks display was truly unforgettable.

Daming Lake truly lives up to its reputation as the Pearl of Jinan! The scenery of "lotuses on all four sides and willows on three" is indeed breathtaking. The lake is wide and clear, with weeping willows swaying gently, and pavilions and ancient buildings scattered in a picturesque manner. Strolling along the lakeside, a gentle breeze caresses your face, filling you with poetic and picturesque beauty, and allowing you to experience its profound cultural heritage. It's free to enter, which is incredibly generous. A visit here is a pleasant and relaxing experience, definitely worthwhile!
A truly magnificent lakeside scene. Willows still sway in the autumn breeze. Apricot yellow mingles with maple red, exuding autumnal charm. The clear lake reflects pavilions, terraces, towers, and galleries. At night, the Chaoran Tower lights up, an indescribable beauty. It can only be said that Jinan's cultural and tourism departments and government agencies put in effort, but didn't give the impression that you needed to pay for visual appeal. There were many pitfalls along the way. Thumbs up to Jinan!

Aranya Community is located in Dapuhe, Changli, now also known as Beidaihe New Area. It's easily accessible from Beijing by car, approximately 300 kilometers away. Visitors can also take the train to Changli Station and then take a bus or taxi to Aranya. If taking the high-speed rail, get off at Beidaihe Station. If traveling by train from East China to Northeast China, you need to get off at Qinhuangdao Station and then take a taxi or ride-hailing service to Aranya.
The Aranya community in Changli has now become a popular spot for online influencers. A visit here shouldn't be measured in hours, but rather by several days. Aranya is a place to slow down and savor. Sitting by the sea, sipping coffee ☕, you can truly relax. It's the perfect place for leisure. Aranya's nights are also beautiful. Many visitors organize evening activities, and there are nightclubs available for tourists.

The China Science and Technology Museum is not only a paradise for children to learn, but adults can also learn a lot of knowledge. However, you must ask for explanations. Our teacher Xiao Liu is great. She has rich knowledge reserves, vivid explanations, and is very friendly to the children. I hope to hear her explanations again next time I come.
The scale and content of the China Science and Technology Museum are incomparable to those of local science and technology museums, especially the Space Museum, which actually has rocket engines! Teacher Lin's explanation is very good, and it is interesting to talk about the past and the present. The whole family gained a lot.

A great place for immersive Confucian cultural study tours! Confucius said: "Be steadfast in your beliefs and love learning; uphold the Way even unto death; do not enter a dangerous state, nor reside in a chaotic state; appear when the Way prevails, and remain hidden when it does not. In a state where the Way prevails, to be poor and lowly is shameful; in a state where the Way does not prevail, to be rich and noble is shameful."
Recommended by a friend from Shandong, this is a relatively new tourist attraction. The visitor center has a large parking area with plenty of spaces. After reaching the main gate, you need to take a bus to get to the rest of the park; the ticket includes shuttle bus service. The park itself is quite large. The university hall has eight floors and five exhibition halls themed around benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, and trustworthiness. It also features performances, souvenirs, a 5D movie, and a restaurant. Outdoors, there's a 70-meter-tall statue of Confucius, and there's a light and fireworks show at night. It's definitely worth bringing children to experience.
