M19***26:“I entered the park at 4 pm on Sunday. It was not hot and not crowded. The overall experience was good. I played until closing time, which was very comfortable. The road to Universal Studios is quite long and takes half a day to walk. It is quite tiring. You can see the night view, but I think Disney is more fun overall.”

Jeffrey Woon:“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.”

Anonymous user:“The first impression was truly stunning! The wisdom and construction skills of the ancients are truly admirable! It's truly a miracle! However, the scenic area's sightseeing bus setup is quite a criticism. After all, the ticket price is 15 yuan, and the sightseeing bus costs 20 yuan for a short distance, which seems a bit forced.”

M42***46:“China's grotto art originated from the Gandhara art of the Western Regions, but it has been continuously developed and promoted by integrating Chinese culture. From the statues of the Western Regions to the statues of Liangzhou, and then to the oriental smiles of Yungang and Longmen, China's grotto corridors are profound and extensive, rare in the world, and shocking!”

lovetian:“Maybe it's because it opened so early, but it doesn't live up to its reputation. Or maybe I've been in Beijing so long lately that I'm tired of it. Overall, it's just average. It has everything you need, and it's decent.”

山在穷游:“I got up early in the morning and many attractions were not open. So I drove here to see this attraction. It was quite simple and remote. It was not well planned. It was a tomb on the side of the road. But it was stolen by the Japanese in the past.”

冬日的大海:“Make an appointment to come back or not to enter! The exhibition can't be seen for three or four hours. For students, it is very helpful to look at the basement floor carefully. The exhibition upstairs can pay attention to the public account and which one you like. I must come back a few times a year. Really great, multi-faceted knowledge, only to come to know!”

_We***68:“I was so lucky to be able to book this guesthouse on this trip! Every detail exudes care and ingenuity, creating a truly captivating atmosphere. The room was spotless, the bedding was soft and comfortable, and I had a wonderful night's sleep. Not only did they help me plan my itinerary, but they also quickly addressed any issues I encountered. This stay was fantastic, and the value was excellent. I'll definitely stay here again next time I'm in the area! It's a newly developed guesthouse, the owner is amazing, the environment is fantastic, and there's parking right outside. The room has a smart home system.”
