A Perfect Oxygen-Rich Getaway Just 1 Hour from Beijing with Few Crowds and Stunning Views

I’ve previously written about Thaiwoo Town, but this time I visited Fulong Four Seasons Town. Compared to Thaiwoo, Fulong Town is truly perfect for a leisurely stroll! 🤫 Currently, Fulong Town isn’t very popular, so not many people know about it. You can quietly enjoy a relaxing "Little Europe" vibe! Visiting Fulong Town feels like a real vacation—few crowds, peaceful, and surrounded by beautiful scenery. The town itself isn’t large, so a day trip is enough for a round-trip visit. 1️⃣ Transportation: 🚅 High-speed train: Depart from Beijing Qinghe Station or Beijing Station, and you’ll arrive at Taizicheng Station in just over an hour (⚠️ Chongli Station is closer, but it’s currently suspended). After exiting Taizicheng Station, walk straight ahead and take the free shuttle bus or a DiDi ride (around ¥45) to Fulong Town! 2️⃣ Travel Tips: 👉🏻 Upon arriving, I recommend taking a walk around the lake first—the town is built around it. The lake is full of fish 🐟, and there’s reportedly a musical fountain with lights at night (I was too captivated by the mountain views to see the fountain ⛲). 👉🏻 Next, explore Valley of Wind Chimes, a commercial area 🕍 featuring buildings in various European architectural styles from different periods. The walls are adorned with fun graffiti and painted stones, making it a great spot for live photos 📸. 👉🏻 For those with kids, head to Polar Bear Home Children’s Park. It costs ¥168 for one adult and one child, with plenty of play facilities inside. Adults can also take photos there. 👉🏻 Outdoor activities include the rainbow slide (¥40 per ride, ¥90 for three rides), grass sliding (¥40 per ride, ¥90 for three rides), children’s trampoline (¥35 for two hours), go-karting (¥128 for three laps), and mountain biking 🚴🏻‍♀️ (I happened to catch a mountain biking competition during my visit—the kids biking up the mountain were so cool!). 👉🏻 Taking the cable car 🚡 is a must-do! It costs ¥100 for a round trip to the mountaintop, where you can enjoy a panoramic view of the town and take stunning photos. During the Dragon Boat Festival, the trees and grass on the mountain were lush green, making it a perfect photo op. It feels like you can touch the clouds, and on clear days, you might even catch the sunset. 👉🏻 At the summit, there’s a Sky Mirror and a high-altitude swing 😚. Wearing white or other bright-colored dresses will make your photos pop. Sitting there, feeling the mountain breeze and breathing in the fresh air, is incredibly relaxing! 😍 ⚠️ Note: The mountaintop is about 1,640 meters above sea level, with strong winds and cooler temperatures. Bring a jacket 🧥 and don’t forget sunscreen. There might also be sudden rain showers, so carrying an umbrella is a good idea. 3️⃣ Food: There are plenty of dining options, like Zhangliang Spicy Hot Pot, Baman Rice Noodles, KFC, and Ban Noodles, but prices are slightly higher. 4️⃣ Accommodation: Many travelers recommend staying at Revivo Hotel 🏨, which has good reviews. Since I did a day trip, I didn’t book a hotel. ———————————————————— 🌹🌹🌹 Overall, Fulong Town is perfect for family trips or those who prefer fewer crowds and a peaceful, oxygen-rich escape. If you have more time, Cuiyun Mountain is also a great option.
