How precious are weekends for working professionals? But would you believe it? With just a couple of pedal pushes from Beijing, you can dive straight into this magical wonderland where fish literally "jump out at you"! Tangshan's Domar Park has been blowing up my social media lately—50+ fishing methods instantly transport adults back to childhood, while artificial beaches paired with wetland sunsets take your breath away. Best part? High-speed rail gets you there hassle-free—why not lock in this weekend getaway? Why is it called the ultimate water playground in northern China? Here are 4 must-experience reasons from my visit The moment I entered, I was stunned: a sprawling 2,500-acre wetland park—half shimmering waters, half golden artificial beaches. Wearing a white dress at Blue Bay Beach, the saltwater lake and coconut palm reflections had my friends convinced I'd secretly flown to Sanya! But the real showstopper is the "fishing tech magic"—at Happy Fishing Valley, turning a waterwheel makes fish swim straight into your net. An elderly angler saw me squealing by the shore and even taught me his "casting secrets"—proving joy knows no age! The amphibious vehicle is a MUST! It charges from land straight into the lake—when the spray hits, everyone screams for another round. Even better? The water train gliding on tracks above the lake at sunset, painting the wetlands gold while the air smells of aquatic plants—I'd believe this was Jiangnan watertown! Deep-dive guide: Full-day immersive itinerary Morning: Ultimate family fun route Arrive at 9am for "Mystery Touch"—dip your hands into koi ponds for ticklish giggles (perfect photo op with fish swarming your palms!). Next, grab waders at "Bamboo Trap Fishing"—kids and adults alike will shriek with delight catching fish barehanded in shallows. I spent 30 soaked minutes there, but the thrill of touching a fish beat winning lottery! Afternoon: Instagrammers’ secret route Head to Blue Bay Beach at 1pm—the saltwater lake turns gradient blue under sunlight. Pro tip: Squat by the shore for photos framing the lake, beach, and distant reeds (caption: "Maldives vibes" totally works!). At 4pm, ride the water train through reeds startling egrets—every shot looks cinematic. Night: Hidden after-dark adventures Few know the park shines at night! The "Night Fishing Carnival" illuminates waters as staff cast nets, letting visitors wade in to catch fish (I bagged a palm-sized carp to take home!). Nearby, clown performances with balloon animals made me rediscover childlike wonder—who can resist starlit fishing with live shows? Stay like a true insider Domar Water Town’s villas are UNREAL—wake to misty lakes from floor-to-ceiling windows, fishing from your balcony. Families should book 4-8 person rooms where kids spot waterbirds from living rooms and stargaze with telescopes (fireflies possible!). For late risers, Domar Hotel is 5 minutes from attractions. My sunrise-hating self finally made the 9am fishing battle! Rooms feature minimalist wood decor overlooking wetlands—even toiletries smell like reeds. Perfectionists, rejoice! Local pro tips: Avoid these mistakes - Wear water shoes! My sneakers stayed soggy all day—lesson learned. ​ - Sunscreen & bug spray! Strong UV afternoons; ankle-biting mosquitoes at dusk. ​ - Pack spare clothes! Unlike me who fell in water and paid premium for replacement tees. ​ - Try the park’s iron-pot fish stew—freshly caught, insanely flavorful, just ¥50/person. I complained about Beijing traffic en route, but the park instantly healed me—while city dwellers stress over KPIs, here you chase fish barefoot as villas glow like honey at sunset. Now I get why Domar is called "North China’s Little Maldives"—it’s not just water fun, but summer’s pure joy bottled in wetlands. This weekend, ready to write your own fishing tale?

|Beijing also has a "Great Tang All Night City". Tangshan | Beijing also has a "Great Tang All Night City" I always felt that Beijing needed a place like the Great Tang All Night City, and now it's here. Located in Tangshan, Hetou Old Street is the best place in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region to experience the Tang Dynasty. Hetou Old Street is located in Tangshan City. It is very convenient to drive from Beijing/Tianjin or take the high-speed rail. Spend a weekend and travel back to the Tang Dynasty. This was originally the head of two artificial canals in Tangshan City, the Meihe River and the Tangjin Canal, hence the name "Hetou Town". The Meihe River was excavated in 1881 and was the first lifeline for transporting coal from the Kaiping Mine. During the canal's heyday, merchants gathered here and it was a prosperous place. Unfortunately, it later declined, leaving behind a Chinatown. After a ten-year hiatus, the area has been transformed into an old town with a Tang Dynasty theme, which is now Hetou Old Street. As for why Tangshan is building Tang culture, it is related to the name of Tangshan. It is said that when Emperor Taizong of Tang led an expedition to Goryeo, he stationed troops on a mountain north of Tangshan. This mountain was therefore called Tangshan, and the name was used for the town. From this perspective, it is natural for Tangshan to build Tang culture. As it was just built, the area is not yet well-known. However, due to its internet celebrity status and the lack of Tang culture carriers in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region, it has quickly become popular. The crowds are lively, and the female tourists dressed in Tang Dynasty costumes on the street add to the atmosphere. Let's talk about the travel experience: About the entrance: Hetou Old Street has three gates, and all three can be used to enter and exit. Many people say to enter from the south gate, but I think it doesn't matter which gate you enter from. The best way to explore is to walk around the canal. No matter which way you go, you will end up back where you started. If you only want to take a boat, it is recommended to enter from the south gate. About the route: The best way to experience the area is on foot. It is not recommended to take a boat, as the scenery from the boat is not as good as walking along the canal bridges on both sides. It is recommended to walk around the canal bridges. You can see almost everything, and you will pass by the main performance areas. About the boat trip: Take a boat from Shengshi Wharf, the full journey costs 98 yuan, and the half journey costs 58 yuan. About dining: The dining area of Hetou Old Street is near the Water Market, which is the south end of the canal. All restaurants are concentrated here, but the taste is average, and most of the dishes are pre-made. If you want to eat authentic Tangshan cuisine, it is recommended to go to the city. About tickets: Originally, there was no entrance fee, but this year, an entrance fee has been introduced. The current ticket policy is: weekdays 58 yuan, weekends 78 yuan, holidays + winter and summer vacations 98 yuan. About time: Generally, the park opens at 4 pm, and performances start around 4 pm. However, in my opinion, these performances are optional. The most important experience is the night view. You can also come after dinner, as the food in the scenic area is not very good.

Who knows this?! A new discovery✌️ It turns out that Tangshan is so close to Beijing and Tianjin❗️ It only takes about an hour by high-speed rail to get to Tangshan, and right outside the train station, you can take a taxi straight to the ancient street of Hetou Ancient Town✌️ This place is comparable to Xi'an's Great Tang Dynasty Everbright City❗️ It's not an exaggeration at all✌️ The densely arranged wooden boats are endlessly flowing on the brilliantly lit river, and there are countless snack shops along the shore, each with a good taste～ In an instant, it's as if you're dreaming back to the Tang Dynasty, or as if you're in the 'Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival' under the night sky👏 The ancient poetry truly does not deceive me✌️ · Note‼️ No admission fee is required on weekdays (Monday to Thursday), which is very suitable for taking the high-speed rail straight after work✌️ Tickets are required on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, costing 68 yuan 💰 Before the doors close at 10:30 pm, take a taxi back to the high-speed rail station for the last train back to Beijing✌️ Tangshan·Hebei Fengnan District·Tangshan

i got to teach in China last 2019 and only got to stay there for four months. I haven't actually explored much of the country except on the weekends and holidays. It was in Tangshan City in Hebei Province that I got the job. The city isn't as popular as Beijing and Shanghai but the city is known for its Nanhu Lake Park which I posted previously. We are only an hour away from Beijing for a train ride and 3 hours for a bus ride. How I wish I could get back and experience the other two seasons of the year---the spring and summer. Well, I am most excited with the winter. I am so excited to experience my first snow fall and to finally touch the snow.

This weekend, I went to Tangshan, China, to clear my head. Transportation🍀 I live in Beijing, so it took about an hour and a half by train from Beijing Station. It's close, right? Haha Transportation Tips😎 In China, try to choose trains that start with C, Z, or T rather than the expensive G (high-speed train). They take about the same amount of time and are usually half or two-thirds the price. In Tangshan, use Tidi Chuxing to get around. Taxi fares are cheaper than in other cities. Itinerary🍀 Day 1: Earthquake Memorial Hall, Nanhu Park Day 2: Rest at the hotel, eat a lot at Wanda Plaza lol Day 3: Hetou Old Street (wow, amazing~) Itinerary Tips😎 If you're pressed for time, a two-day, one-night trip is plenty. Check if the Earthquake Memorial Hall is open. It's currently closed for a long time. Nanhu Park is so huge. The Intercontinental Hotel near Wanda Plaza is already cheap in China, but Tangshan is even cheaper by 10,000-20,000 won. Highly recommended. The pool water is warm and pleasant. Hetou Old Street 🍀 Yes, I've been to every famous city in China, lol. But Chinese travel destinations have been evolving in recent years. Hetou Old Street was roughly 💊 rebuilt from Tangshan!! Haha I'd say so. Of course, you could simply view it as a modernized restoration of an old street, but I really liked their design. Enter through the South Gate, and enjoy the water skiing in the plaza and the view of the river and lighting towers in the old street during the day. There's a water station, lol. The cars are free. If you look closely, they even give you a popsicle. Haha. Wow, I've never seen anything like this in China. A narrow, long canal separates the old street. There are markets, food stalls, and plazas on both sides. Everyone is dressed in traditional attire. Everywhere, they play Yabawi games, just like in the old days. Quiz games and giveaways are really lively.👍 At Nammun Square, there's Peking opera, flute performances, aerial water skiing, flying attractions, cruises, and more. Your eyes and ears will be dazzled.ㅋ There's singing and instrumental performances everywhere, Dangsan dialect guessing, murals, and views from the bridge across the river... Anyway, the person who designed and planned this place deserves an award. 🏆 Old Street Tips😎 Enjoy the free shuttles, ice skating rinks, performances, and quizzes along the way. Go around sunset to see both the daytime and nighttime views. It's truly a treat. 😋 In the evening, there's the Dangwangdongjeong (hmm... does the story overlap with our history?) The performance is also spectacular, so be sure to see it. All prices are cheaper on weekdays than weekends. Then, let's head to Hetou Old Street, a friendly neighborhood in Dangsan. ^^

#mytraveldiary ✔︎First Stop - Tangshan Banquet First, visit Tangshan Banquet, which boasts a wealth of delicious food and photo opportunities. Enjoy lunch there. I recommend ordering a chess piece sesame pancake and yogurt. The second floor is filled with interesting, nostalgic ornaments, many beautifully arranged. You can also find bracelets and small cups for 5 yuan each. There are also scheduled performances, which are super fun. ✔︎Second Stop - Hetou Old Street While everyone knows Hetou Old Street's night view is stunning, an afternoon stroll there won't be boring. You can trigger NPCs along the way. Completing mini-game challenges will earn you silver notes, which can be redeemed for gifts at the entrance. The earlier you redeem, the more gifts you'll get! There are many games to enjoy.

#September2025 Walking into the Tangshan Qixin Cement Industry Museum is like stepping back in time a century ago. Steel beams and creaking brick walls quietly tell the story of the dawn of modern Chinese industry. This former cement factory has now become a cultural sanctuary, with each aging machine bearing the marks of time, like a weathered elder, silently bearing witness to the city's rise and transformation. Inside the exhibition hall, images of everything from cement production processes to the Tangshan earthquake are breathtaking. This is not just industrial history, but a condensation of the city's soul. Stepping up the creaking wooden stairs and touching the cool iron, one can almost hear the shouts of the workers and the roar of the machinery. As we leave, the setting sun casts an orange-gold light through the high windows, reminding us that progress is never taken for granted. Every piece of cement is etched with the sweat and dreams of countless people.

The sea breeze of Caofeidian carries a salty freshness, and hidden within this vast coastal expanse lies Domar Amusement Park, a fairytale world where dreams come to life. Upon entering the park, the colorful carousel sparkles against the backdrop of the sea and sky, while the towering Ferris wheel offers breathtaking views of the coastline. Children's laughter blends harmoniously with the rhythm of the waves, creating the most enchanting soundtrack. Every corner of the park exudes a sense of joy and freedom. As the sun sets, the park's lights gradually illuminate, with neon lights dancing alongside the sea breeze, like a grand celebration that refuses to end. Strolling along the coastal boardwalk, the waves gently lap at your feet, and the air is filled with the sweet scent of candy mingled with the crispness of the sea. This is not just a paradise for children but also a retreat for adults seeking a brief escape from reality. When night fully descends, the pure, childlike wonder within your heart continues to stir, as if you've rediscovered the innocence of your long-lost childhood.

Hetou Old Street is paved with bluestone slabs, flanked by rustic and weathered wooden houses, resembling an old painting slowly unfolding. The faint aroma of tea wafts from the teahouse at the street entrance, while century-old shops retain their original facades. The calls of street vendors and the display of traditional craftsmanship echo through the narrow alleys. Strolling through, every carved window lattice and every brick carving tells a story of bygone days. At dusk, lanterns light up, casting a gentle glow over the old street. Sitting on the stone steps, listening to the river lapping against the shore, it feels as if one can converse with the past, rediscovering the long-forgotten memories of everyday life.

Caofeidian Wetland is a natural oasis along the shores of the Bohai Sea. Reeds sway like waves in the wind, and flocks of migratory birds rest here, accompanied by the salty tang of the tides and the fresh scent of vegetation. Walking along the wooden boardwalks, you’ll find crisscrossing waterways beneath your feet. Occasionally, wild ducks take flight from the depths of the reeds, creating ripples that spread outward. At dusk, flocks of egrets circle in the glow of the setting sun, painting the sky in gradients of orange and gold. The rhythm of life in the wetland harmonizes with the ebb and flow of the tides—serene yet powerful. Sitting on the bird-watching platform, gazing at this vast expanse, you can truly feel the breath of nature and the eternal rhythm of life.
