Personally, I feel that only the Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey, Jurassic World, Flight of the Hippogriff and the Moe Roller Coaster are interesting, and the others are just average (I didn't dare to try the Decepticon Roller Coaster); for the performances, you should watch Waterworld and Untamed; there are also the Global Parade, halftime show and singing performances along the way. If you don't want to watch the light show in the evening, you can go and queue up for the attractions when there are fewer people.
I entered the park at 10 o'clock and played almost everything in one day. I didn't buy a special pass. I just arranged it according to the time on the APP. Two adults and one child can buy tickets early in the morning on the same day. The park prices are relatively high. It is recommended to bring some snacks and drinks if it is convenient.

You can buy tickets from Beijing North and Qinghe Stations. Round-trip tickets are plentiful, but be sure to leave plenty of time for your return trip, as ticket checking closes 12 minutes before the platform. The entrance is quite far from the platform, and the elevator is incredibly long. If you're traveling with luggage, there's free storage available, so you don't have to pay at the train station. You don't have to buy water or food to bring with you. There's Mixue and plenty of affordable eateries nearby. We started at the North Great Wall and then went down to Bear Park. Wear non-slip shoes and sunscreen; there are restrooms at the Great Wall. The bears at Bear Park are incredibly plump.
First time visit Badaling Great Wall. Bought the 2 ways cable car ticket and great wall admission ticket though trip.com. Took the cable car up to the Great Wall tower 8 then walked / climbed to tower 9, 10, 11 and finally 12. A lot of excercise and steep uphill and downhill. Not suitable for old people. However, the scenic views are malverous.

Located about a two-hour drive from Hohhot, the scenic area is located on the Huitengxile Grassland. While there are some attractions like horseback riding, grass skiing, and go-karting, the scenery inside the scenic area is more beautiful. Transportation options include cable cars, grassland trains, and animal-drawn carts, making the area more accessible. A word of caution: tickets purchased on Ctrip can only be used after an hour.
It's good to take children. There are many attractions inside. However, the package ticket is just a small transportation ticket inside. I feel it is still a bit expensive. If you want to see the scenery, you can go outside and it is more interesting.

It’s worth going. It’s best to stay for 2 nights and thoroughly play. On the third day, I set off to Chifeng City and take the National View Avenue. It’s about 400 miles. The desert rides camels. The origin of the Daliao country. The museum is very shocking in the city. Finally, I went to the Kalka Wangye Mansion, the last Mongolian Wangye, the patriotic Wangye, Help Daqing Pingding Zhungar rebellion. A good place worth a few more trips, Ulan Butong I love you 😊.
The scenery is beautiful and worth a visit, but the surrounding environment needs improvement. The road is too narrow, and I hope the government can expand it.
I hope the My Fair Princess attraction will inform everyone that vehicles cannot exit once they enter, as this would be very inconvenient for tourists in a hurry. Because I couldn't exit after entering, I spent almost two hours wandering around enjoying the beautiful scenery, and there was only a one-way road inside.

It exceeded my expectations.
The zoo is so huge. I only saw about 50% of it from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
The wild animal experience area and the train were fantastic. I got really close to the animals, and the scenery from the train was truly stunning.
I'd definitely go see a show next time I get the chance.
The entire park is very large, and many facilities have been improved compared to before, which is very good, but the order is relatively chaotic, especially when queuing, queue cutting is very serious, and this aspect needs to be improved.

You must go early in the morning when there will be fewer people. The whole hike took about 4 hours. I took a lot of photos. The scenery is great. Yanmen Pass is magnificent and majestic. It is worthy of being the first pass in China!
There's a convenient bus service directly from Yanmenguan High-Speed Railway Station to the scenic area. The ride takes about an hour and costs 20 yuan. Yanmenguan offers beautiful scenery and is ideal for climbing the Great Wall. If you don't climb the Great Wall, the entire tour should take about an hour. Afterward, take a bus from Yanmenguan Scenic Area to explore Xinzhou Ancient City.

Beautiful place, clean tungsten, gorgeous territory, beautiful well-groomed animals, recommend to visit.
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.

No one could have predicted that Labuboo would become so popular this year. 🤣
Last year, I took my kids there and it was a great photo op. There were also performances. The only downside was that it was difficult to buy food.
If youre a labubu or molly fan, its worth visiting. Only need 2hrs at most as its currently being renovated, so some areas closed. A few nice photo ops, you can go around stamp collecting and they give you a booklet for this, free. Check the show schedules if you want to watch. Not many figurines to buy / choose from. Visit popmart if you want to collect the figurines.

The tour guide is very professional. He can show us the simulations in the science and technology museum. Many tour guides in other places can't play with them. The tour guide combines the children's school knowledge points and popularizes some science and technology knowledge on the spot, which is very useful for the children.
Overall Experience:
1. The venue is incredibly technological, with thoughtfully designed exhibits and a wide variety of them, offering both educational and playful content.
2. The venue is incredibly spacious. The main exhibition hall alone spans four floors, each with 2-4 halls. Each hall boasts an estimated 20-50 exhibits. While not every exhibit is enjoyable, even casually wandering around is incredibly tiring and time-consuming. Children can easily wander off, so it's recommended that they bring a smartwatch or have their parents supervise them closely.
3. There are virtually no resting areas within the venue, with adults and children sitting on the floor everywhere. Fortunately, the venue is clean, so you can sit anywhere without worrying about it.
4. It's incredibly crowded.

The show lasted 70 minutes, featuring equestrianism, acrobatics, singing and dancing. Afterward, the horses' breeds and characteristics were explained. Afterward, you could feed and ride the horses for a fee. There was a slight odor inside the venue, so if you're sensitive, you can wear a mask. Those who aren't allergic will quickly get used to it. The shuttle driver was also very friendly.
It was a very shocking performance, loved by both adults and children. It allowed us to understand Mongolian culture and the importance of horses to the Mongolians. The actors all had unique skills and the horses were very cooperative, especially the many young actors, whose horsemanship was amazing and very impressive.
