Family, the parent-child trip to Tai'erzhuang Ancient City is absolutely amazing!!!

Family, recently I took the kids to Tai'erzhuang Ancient City. This time we stayed at the Moonlight Bo'an Hotel in the city, which is simply fantastic👍. I have to share our awesome parent-child travel experience with everyone~ 🎈Arrival and First Impressions As soon as we arrived at Bo'an Hotel, we were attracted by its appearance. The architectural style perfectly complements the charm of the ancient city. The front desk staff were super friendly and thoughtfully prepared small gifts for the baby, which immediately brought us closer😃 After dropping off our luggage, we started exploring[Chin] 🚶‍♀️【5 Must-Do Things with Kids】👶 ❶ First Impressions of the Ancient City 👉 Check in at the East Gate with Qianlong’s inscription "The Number One Village Under Heaven," and take stunning canal photos in Hanfu costumes! 👉 Stroll along Dayamen Street to visit cultural and creative shops, buy the kids a small shadow puppet or New Year painting as a souvenir~ ❷ Immersive History Learning ✔️ Tai'erzhuang Battle Memorial Hall: see bullet-marked walls + animated short film, telling the battle story in 5 minutes ✔️ Canal Signboard Museum: ancient shop signs are super interesting, kids compete to guess the "blind box" old brands! ❸ Have Fun with Intangible Cultural Heritage 🔥 Make woodblock New Year paintings on Boat-shaped Street (30 RMB/person) 🔥 Luban Lock Challenge (super fun parent-child competition) ⏰ Don’t miss the shadow puppet show at 15:30/17:00! ❹ Rowboat Ride Through the Water Town 🌿 Choose the short route “East Gate → Fuxing Square”! The boatwoman sings folk songs and tells stories about ancient bridges ✨ Recommended to board at 17:30 to see the sunset shining on the blue tiles and white walls—absolutely beautiful! ❺ Snack Street Must-Try Guide 🍜 Huanghua Beef Noodles (fresh soup and tender meat) at Chaohua Xishi Chinese Restaurant 🍶 Old yogurt with osmanthus honey is a forever favorite! 🥤 Tea Huayuanji milk tea is delicious beyond words! 🌙【Hidden Night Scene Activities】 ✅ 18:30 East Gate City Wall Light Show ✅ On holidays, catch the "Fire Dragon Steel Flower" intangible cultural heritage iron flower show (like golden meteor showers!) starting at 19:30; on non-holidays, arrive 15 minutes early for a great viewing spot! 📌【Mom’s Practical Tips】 ⚠️ Book tickets one day in advance via official reservation! Free for children under 1.4m 🅿️ Navigate to “East Gate Parking Lot” for the closest spot 👟 Have kids wear non-slip shoes! Stone pavements + boat rides can be slippery 🚗 For babies, strollers or prams are recommended 🈲 Pocket strollers are not recommended! Stone pavements are bumpy and can easily tip over! 🦟 Mosquito repellent patches + small fans are lifesavers in summer 💬 “By day, it’s a water town north of the river; by night, it’s a dreamy wonderland” Experiencing living history with kids beyond textbooks is more profound than telling the story 100 times!
