Stay near Pigeon Nest, in the sea view room of Yiteng Seaview Sunrise Hotel, where you can watch the sunrise🌅 from bed in the morning—truly delightful~.
Second day:
Stay in Changli Aranya community, on day2 evening + day3 morning you can check in at the internet-famous landmarks within the Aranya community✅.
🍤 Dining:
Recommended near Laolongtou:
【Shanhai Fisherman's】 is the treasure restaurant of the entire trip where we had 4 meals, offering the freshest, cheapest, and best service.
Avoid near Changli:
The restaurants on the road from Jinhai Coast Market to the beach are like those that rip off tourists in summer. We ordered a bass but got a pre-made dish, ordered Mao Blood Wang and only got duck blood, bean sprouts, and 4 shrimps, and it was very expensive, not recommended.
🍤 Seafood products:
Changli Seafood Market:
【Qiu Hong Seafood】 We bought crabs and clams, and they were super fresh and sweet when we ate them at home in the evening! Clearly priced, the owner drains the water before weighing after bagging, and is also very nice👍🏻.
Thank you for your likes, comments, and follows🦉.
Such a beautiful little town. Definitely worth a visit, but probably best to go in Summer. Winter is just too cold. There’s cafe’s, shops, a cinema, restaurants and a lot more apparently. The Aranya hotel was excellent! Great service, friendly staff, clean rooms fully equipped with necessities such as lotion, shampoo, conditioner, body wash, toothpaste, toothbrushes (extras for kids), clean towels, bottled water and they even provided fruit and snacks. There’s a spa, they have their own coffee, and they sell lotion which smells amazing. They also have a shuttle to take people around. If you want to see the sunrise, get in line for the shuttle as early as possible! I truly had a great experience, just a pity I could only stay for one day :( I would definitely visit again if I can.
In Anaya, there are art exhibitions, performances, installations, events, etc.; there are music festivals, pioneer parties, music styles from classics to pop; there are dramas and Anaya exclusive festivals and events.
🚗 Traffic Strategy: It is very convenient to take the high-speed rail. Beijing Station is more than two hours to Beidaihe Station. It takes 35 minutes to take a taxi from the station to Anaya. You need to show the reservation information to the door guard at the door. Accommodation strategy: There are four hotels and some homestays in Anaya Community. This time I chose to stay in Club Med Joyview during the winter vacation, there were relatively few people and the price was very high. The hotel is right by the sea and the beach is out. We chose a sea view room, and we can see the sunrise every morning on the terrace 🌅. The hotel has indoor hot springs and many amusement projects, including archery, basketball, football, table tennis and more. There are swings and seesaws outdoors. The hotel room is large and well equipped including buffet breakfast. The hotel staff is kind and the check-in and check-out are fast. 🍽 Food Guide: Anaya community has a lot of restaurants that take care of various tastes. Sichuan hot pot Shanghai cuisine Beijing halal cuisine Guizhou sauerkraut fish seafood steamed dumplings Hong Kong-style dessert shop Italian cuisine Vietnamese rice noodles Japanese ramen Lanzhou flavor, etc. In addition to the restaurant, there are four canteen types. Choose more by portion. Your WeChat Alipay recharge balance will be refunded at any time. Our three people will spend about 100 yuan. The overall price is good. 🎢 Entertainment experience: This time I also experienced go-kart and archery. The venue is very beautiful. Archery is suitable for adults. Children can experience go-kart for 8 minutes and 58 yuan. Interested friends can try 💗 Recommended reason: the community is very large. It takes more than a long time to walk. You can choose to pick up the shuttle bus. Choose the community. There are three bus lines A/B/C/D that basically cover the entire community. Surrounded by the owner's villas, very beautiful bungalows, Mediterranean or Moroccan style, and the shots are blockbusters. There are also entertainment facilities such as swings and slides between each bungalow. Very parent-child 🛍 Shopping guide: The supporting facilities in the community are also very tall. There is a one-way bookstore. The decoration of the black and white book is also very attitude. The decoration of the shop and the clothing store is very fresh. The living supermarket is also very convenient. Basically, you can solve it in the community for eating, drinking and playing. 📌 Small Tips: The works in the Dune Art Museum are more modern art. The three-story terrace can see the sea. It is worth taking pictures. Guests can make an appointment on the App to visit the auditorium and library. There are fewer people in the morning and night. It is good to take pictures.
Anaya in Changli, Qinhuangdao, is very popular this summer. Qinhuangdao is famous for Changli Anaya. Every day, vehicles queue up in the Anaya community. The people who check in at the hotel center are squeezing. Anaya is a community, not a scenic spot.
This summer, the beach is the peak season, basically no turn back, just went to the beginning of June. I still like to go when there are few people. Whether it is activities or a daze, it is more free and will not be disturbed.
In spring, the pear blossoms are very beautiful. The net red store Manner Coffee has begun to line up. It is generally time to slip over for a drink when my daughter is in an equestrian class.
