Direct shuttles available from Zhangjiakou, Chongli, and Chengde train stations. 👌 🏨 Accommodation: Hotel + ticket packages offer great value, with unlimited park re-entry. We stayed at White Horse Hotel—family-friendly with a 24-hour indoor playground. ⏰⌛️ 🥯 Dining: Plenty of restaurants inside and outside the park, plus options in nearby Datan Town. 👗 Outfits: Large temperature swings and strong UV—pack short sleeves for the day and thick jackets for the night.
