We booked a tour of the Forbidden City for my family. Mr. Fan, the "Jing Zhuangyuan" teacher, was incredibly attentive and thorough throughout the three-plus-hour tour, taking care of the needs of everyone in our group. His professionalism was outstanding. He was also very kind and patient, making it an unforgettable experience. Highly recommended!
Although the sun was very strong, Guide Xu's humor and thoughtfulness made our trip to the Forbidden City very enjoyable. He sent a text message a day in advance and called to remind us when we didn't confirm in time. He helped us take beautiful family photos and his photography skills were very nice. He explained everything in detail. In short, we had a lot of fun!

Located on Liuyin Street in Xicheng District, Beijing, Prince Gong's Mansion is the largest and best-preserved palace complex of the Qing Dynasty. The buildings are divided into three wings: central, east, and west. The vertical layout features five courtyards, front and back. The mansion boasts three unique features and one treasure: the Western-style Gate, the Grand Theater, and the Back Building. Its treasure is the stele inscribed with the character "Fu."
Xiucai said that Jiang Shangyi knew the Prince Gong Mansion very well and told us the stories of the masters in different periods. Jiang's explanation was professional and humorous, and it was great overall! The experience was great! The service was great! Highly cost-effective! Highly recommended Xiushuo

There were too many people, too many people, too many people, too many people, I didn't give it full stars because there were too many people and the experience was bad. The waiters everywhere were very arrogant. There were 3 accidents on the mountain. They were squeezed up with their buttocks touching their faces. It was difficult to stop, let alone enjoy the scenery. They ignored everything for the sake of making money.
Climbing Mount Tai at night is still very exciting. There are too many people and you can't see much scenery. If it is your first time climbing Mount Tai, it is recommended to come during the day. There are many supply points in the scenic area, which is very good.

The park's official guided tour includes admission and a guided tour. You can join anytime. The tour is located in the small pavilion on the right after entering the east gate. Your guide will lead you through the shade and explain the key attractions, including the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests, the Seven Star Stone, the Circular Mound, the Imperial Vault of Heaven, and the Echo Wall. It's an average-sized cultural and historical attraction, but I recommend hiring a guide. Simply taking photos and checking in isn't very interesting.
The Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests is a good place to take photos, but the Circular Mound is incredibly sunny. The large square offers no shade at all, and I nearly had a heart attack after a few minutes of sunbathing.
Those interested in history and culture and ancient architecture are worth visiting. The temple is unique in style, beautiful in shape and large in scale. There is also an exhibition hall dedicated to the evolution of ancient Sacrifice culture and architecture next to it. In addition to the temple of the year, the hill, and the echo wall several core points, in fact, the greening and layout of the park is also worth admiring, it is really awe-ingenious ingenuity and the style of the central dynasty.

It's worth a visit. It's a cool spot in the hot summer, and the fish in the spring are plump. It would be nice if there were more places to relax and sit for a while. You can scan the QR code to listen to the tour guide at the scenic spot, which is definitely worth learning from other attractions.
Today's trip with guide Wang Ping was a very pleasant one. During our morning visit to the panda base, Wang was very familiar with the route and led us efficiently, managing each section of the tour with excellent timing. We were able to fully appreciate the pandas without any unnecessary detours, and the pace was very comfortable.
However, I was a little disappointed that I didn't get to hear Wang's explanation during our afternoon visit to Sanxingdui. Her professional introduction would have made the trip much more enriching. I hope to have the opportunity to travel with Wang again next time to make up for this small regret.

Yinhui Gate, one of the six gates of the Summer Palace, is located behind Wanshou Mountain. It connects Suzhou Street and the Houhu Scenic Area. Yinhui Gate is closest to the North Palace Gate and can be seen a short distance to the left after entering the park. Suzhou Street is directly to the left of the gate. Currently, Suzhou Street is under renovation...
Fun Facts:
The six gates of the Summer Palace are: Ziqidonglai Gate, Suyunyan Gate, Yinhui Gate, Tongyun Gate, Qianfeng Caicui Gate, and Wenchang Pavilion Gate.
In the Harmonious Garden area of the Summer Palace, there's a unique pavilion called "Xiao Youtian." Built during the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty, it features eight pillars, double eaves, and a pointed roof. Its name, inspired by the Taoist concept of the "Thirty-Six Minor Heavens," suggests a tranquil haven akin to a paradise. Its name may also reference Du Fu's poem, "The ancient Qiuchi Cave, subtly connects to Xiao Youtian." The pavilion is surrounded by rockery, creating a captivating scene.

Penglai Pavilion: The Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea
🌊
📍Penglai
"I've heard there's a fairy mountain on the sea, lurking in the ethereal void. May I ask where the Eight Immortals reside? Once you reach Penglai, you'll become an immortal."
The scenery is beautiful, especially the sea, which is more beautiful than any other beach in Yantai. However, there are too many people during the peak season and the weather is very hot. Unfortunately, there are too few places to escape the heat and there are not enough tour guides. When we arrived, we had to wait for an hour for a guide, so we wandered around on our own and missed many attractions.

This was my second time there. Although it rained, the weather was exceptionally cool, and the park wasn't crowded. Aside from the wild animal area and the train, which each had queues of 20-30 minutes, other areas were relatively quiet. The animals also came out to enjoy the cool air, and I saw every animal I wanted to see. I felt incredibly lucky. There was a cute little white tiger waiting for the train.
Take the children to play, Beijing Wildlife Park is the one in Daxing, you can drive in by yourself, the route without driving is also very good, you can refer to the guide in Xiaomou's book, it is highly recommended, the animals are well raised, except for the giant panda, almost all the animals are available, and you can also pay to feed them

I went to the zoo in the morning. The panda house was on the right hand side as soon as I entered. The panda house required a separate ticket of 5 yuan. I had to queue up separately for the Xizhimen San Taizi. After watching for 5 minutes, the crowd cleared and the next person came to visit. If Menglan went back to the house, they would not let you in. Many people brought selfie sticks. The glass of the zoo is very reflective, so it was better to use a selfie stick away from the glass. In fact, as long as Menglan came out, the queue was quite fast. I happened to catch up with the bamboo eating in the morning and saw several pandas eating bamboo.
Beijing Zoo is an urban oasis full of charm and historical heritage. It was built in 1906 and has witnessed the changes of the times over the past 100 years. There are many kinds of animals here, including cute giant pandas, majestic lions and tigers, elegant giraffes, smart birds, etc. About 500 rare animals have made their home here, which is eye-opening. The layout of the park is reasonable, and each venue is carefully designed. The unique mountain structure of the Lion and Tiger Mountain and the bamboo forest surrounding the Panda Pavilion are all impressive. In addition to watching animals, this is also an important base for popular science education, which allows tourists, especially children, to understand animal habits and protection knowledge. The environment in the park is beautiful, with green trees and shades, and the ancient buildings and natural landscapes complement each other. Although some facilities are slightly old, it does not affect its unique charm at all. It is an excellent place for parent-child travel and animal lovers, and an important window to showcase the style of the capital and the image of China.
