It hasn't snowed in Beijing this year (a bit disappointing). I originally planned to go to Longtan Zhonghu Snow World, but it only opens on the 25th, so I temporarily changed to go to [Happy Water Cube] to play. The entrance fee is reasonable and all the fun in the venue is included (no time limit)

Just discovered at the end of autumn, a large ginkgo forest is in full bloom. I don't know if it will be okay in a few days. A small breeze blew, and a super strong level 7 ginkgo rain broke out 🍂 . There are very few people. You can drive in because this is a parking lot. I didn't expect to see so few people in Beijing in autumn! . 🚘 Navigate to Happy Water Cube Parking Lot (location in picture 9), parking fee is 8 yuan/hour

On the actual day of the Dragon Boat Festival, I took the kids to the Water Cube! It feels like there are a hundred million people at the Water Cube today?! We arrived at the entrance for security check🛂 and park entry at 10:40 am and had to queue up for a long time. The last time I experienced such a crowd was at a certain Disney! The Water Cube is indeed the ceiling for kids to play with water, playing all day in the wave pool🌊+ various water slides is not a problem! But you must, must take sun protection seriously! All measures must be in place! Otherwise, you'll end up like us, sunburnt like spicy chicken😅 both scorched and red! After playing at the Water Cube for a day, I feel there are quite a few experiences to share. ⬇️⬇️⬇️ 👉⚠️You can bring campervans, camping chairs, and ground mats into the park! But honestly, I really can't understand people who set up camping chairs right in the middle of the path, it's a bit too low in quality! 👉🍽️You can bring your own food into the park, although the prices for food here are not outrageously expensive, they are still on the higher side, a ready-to-eat Italian pasta🍝 sells for 48 a portion, grilled meat skewers💰25, grilled squid💰30, a casual meal can cost you two hundred yuan. So it's more appropriate to bring something simple yourself. 👉🔔The most important point, ✅big sun hat✅sun protection clothing✅long-sleeve long-pants swimsuit➕✅sunscreen🧴apply frequently and generously, in nearly forty degrees of scorching sun, you can't overdo sun protection. 👉❗️The ticket is for one-time entry and exit, meaning once you leave, you can't re-enter! Even if you want to go out to get something in the middle, you can't, so bring everything you need before you go in! Including all the tools for children to play with sand and water, ✅water guns✅swimming rings, etc., everything is expensive to buy inside. 👉With the current weather, it's still a bit chilly when you get out of the water and the wind blows, so bring a few more towels for the kids to wrap up and prevent colds😷! 👉The shower area has plenty of showerheads, no need to queue. But there are no family shower rooms, boys can only be taken by fathers, girls can only be taken by mothers, otherwise, you can only change into clean clothes in the children's changing room and go home to shower! 👉A day pass can be directly upgraded to a season pass🎫 inside the park, just need to pay an extra two hundred or so. If you live nearby and your child is relatively big, coming here to play with water in the summer is indeed a cost-effective choice! 🅿️There are plenty of parking lots nearby, with ample parking spaces, but the parking fee is expensive. 💰8 yuan per hour, parking for most of the day costs nearly 50 yuan!

🏨 Beijing Happy Water Cube ❤Recommended reason: Beijing Ice and Snow Carnival, the first stop to check in, where to go for the Spring Festival, just go to the Water Cube to play in the snow, don't hesitate to come, basically all projects are friendly to children, all can play! 💰Average consumption: The online and offline official ticket prices at the door are the same, you can buy on the spot, 179 for two people to play, children under 1.2 are free 📍Detailed address: Xiaotun Road, Fengtai District We drove there, there is a parking lot which is very convenient, plenty of parking spaces, spent about 34 yuan for about four and a half hours today, not expensive! 🕙Business hours: 9.30-18.00 (sometimes you may not be able to enter at five o'clock, all projects are stopped, and then the venue is cleared) 📝Note tips: 1. The temperature is low, it is recommended to bring a hat and gloves for cold protection. 2. In addition, the snow on the scene is a bit sticky and wet, it is easy to stick to the snow boots, it will be a bit wet, but it's not a big problem. 3. The overall queue time for all projects is very short, there are places to eat in the park, no problem with a full meal!
