The front desk of the hotel is warm and thoughtful, the room arranged is very good, the floor attendant Bai Chunhui is also very warm and patient, the introduction to the park is careful, the entrance is very fast, the stay experience is full, there is a chance to come again
Monday was a bit crowded and a bit hot, but the game project was still very playable, the Harry Potter area was still very classic, and the things in the castle were worth queuing up.

The Palace Museum is full of traces of history. In the depths of the palace, there are thousands of mountains, and jade pieces can be seen in the distance. One side is illusory. After a lifetime of prosperity, the Forbidden City will eventually return to its original state, Chang'an will return to its hometown, and the red walls will return to the pure land of the valley. And I will return to you. The scholar said that the tour guide Yanyan explained in detail and arranged the route reasonably. I strongly recommend that you must go to the Forbidden City. Look at the majesty of the Forbidden City for 600 years. The Forbidden City is open to the public, and the Forbidden City is where you live. There is no sense of the heavy change of the long river of history.
I heard that the "Thousand Dragons Emerging from Water" scene in the Forbidden City was shocking, and I was lucky enough to witness it in a heavy rain.
When I entered the Forbidden City, the rain curtain had already fallen. When I walked to the three main halls, I was instantly shocked by the scene in front of me. On the three-story white marble platform, 1,142 dragon heads gushed out water at the same time, and the water columns were of different thicknesses, like thousands of silver dragons spitting water in the clouds, magnificent. When it rained heavily, the water flowed like a rushing waterfall, wantonly splashing; when the rain slowed down, it was like a string of beaded curtains, crystal clear. The rain fell layer by layer, but there was no water accumulation on the platform, which perfectly demonstrated the power of the drainage system.
Looking around, the rain poured down along the glazed tiles on the roof, forming a series of water curtains, echoing with the dragon heads spitting water. The red walls and yellow tiles were shrouded in rain, fog and water splashes, becoming more solemn and beautiful.
This "Thousand Dragons Out of Water" is not only a drainage wonder, but also the crystallization of the wisdom of the ancients. The Forbidden City is generally high in the north and low in the south, and the base is also cleverly designed with a slope. In addition, the open and underground canals that extend in all directions and are over 15 kilometers long lead rainwater into the Inner Jinshui River in an orderly manner and eventually drain it out of the city. After more than 600 years of wind and rain and countless rainstorms, the Forbidden City has never been troubled by waterlogging.
Enjoying this scene in the rain is not only a feast for the eyes, but also a profound appreciation of the exquisiteness of ancient architectural craftsmanship and drainage wisdom.

Although the treasures in the palace of Prince Gong were taken away, even these remaining buildings are enough to our admiration. The most complete theater building with "sounds" in existence, the hidden treasure behind the windows of each room, the western gate of the garden, the Fuzibei in the secret cloud cave, the square pond water raft that needs to be boarded by boat, the bat pool with eucalyptus trees around the shape of bats, Every scene is spent with adults, really the scene has a story everywhere~ and adults you really love life people, I plan to go home and pass the Hexuan out to see [laughing R]
On the weekend of the trip to Prince Gong's Mansion, I arrived at the Prince Gong's Mansion in Beijing and began a journey through time and space. Just stepped into the Mansion, the antique building came into view. This is the largest existing courtyard house in Beijing, once a mansion of Hexuan, and later became the mansion of Prince Gong. Walking in the palace, as if you can feel the weight and vicissitudes of history. Every building is carefully carved, with moths and arches and carved beams, showing the royal style. Follow the central axis and come to Yin'an Palace. This is the main hall of the palace, the palace is magnificent, the center is hung with the "Jialetang" forehead. The rooms on both sides are displayed with various cultural relics and historical materials, which gives a deeper understanding of the history of the palace of Prince Gong. Through the Yin'an Palace, it is the back garden. The scenery here is pleasant, with rockery, pavilions and water rafts scattered. The lakeside pavilion reflects on the water, sparkling, and has a unique charm. The seagull trees in the garden are particularly striking. It is said that this was planted by Prince Gong himself, and they are still lush and leafy. In the palace of Gong Wang, I not only admired the exquisiteness of the ancient buildings, but also felt the changes in history. It witnessed the rise and fall of the Qing Dynasty, and it also carried countless stories and legends. Walking around it, it seems to hear the echo of history, making people linger. The trip to the palace of Gong made me have a deeper understanding of Beijing's history and culture. This is a living museum, every brick and tile tells the story of the past.

There is a "small palace" in the Temple of Heaven Park, which is the palace of Zhai. It was built in 1420 in the southwest of the Temple of Heaven and was the place of fasting before the emperors of the Ming and Qing Dynasties held sacrifices. In the Ming and Qing Dynasties, Beijing had four Zhai Palace, namely the Forbidden City Zhai Palace, the Ditan Zhai Palace, the first Nongtan Qingcheng Palace, and the Temple of Heaven Zhai Palace, the largest area, the longest period of time. The Temple of Heaven is located in the west and east, covering an area of more than 40,000 square meters, surrounded by two palace walls, two moats, 163 corridors, and the layout is square. During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, 22 emperors completed the fasting before the sacrifice. During the Zheng Dynasty, after the construction of the Zhai Palace in the Forbidden City, the Temple of Heaven was abandoned. The beamless temple here is a masterpiece of ancient architecture. The "Jingtian" outside the temple and the "Qinruo Tian" inside the temple are all Qianlong royal pens. The bronze statue of the bronze man in front of the temple was carved by Zhu Yuanxuan in the prototype of Wei Zheng, which means to remind the emperor to fast and keep the commandment. Its bell tower and drum tower are the starting signal of the ritual of sacrifice. The adoration of heaven is the recognition and respect of the laws of nature, which reflects the concept of unity between heaven and man, and has certain philosophical value. This is also the inspiration after visiting the Zhai Palace.
Temple of Heaven Park is the place where the emperors of the Ming and Qing Dynasties sacrificed the emperor, the valley and the rain, and it is also the largest ancient sacrificial complex in China. The park not only has the temple of the year, the hill, the echo wall and other attractions, there are many hundreds of years of ancient trees standing there, as if telling the changes of history over the centuries.

On a hot day, I took a sightseeing boat and took a leisurely tour. As if I entered the depths of time, followed the scenes in the TV series, swimming all the way, and felt the mood of the emperor's visit.
On the weekend of the Summer Palace, I came to the Summer Palace in Beijing and started a journey through the ancient and modern times. As soon as I stepped into the Summer Palace, I was deeply attracted by the beauty in front of me. This is a model of the royal garden, with lakes and mountains, beautiful scenery. The first thing that came into view was Kunming Lake, the lake was sparkling, and several cruise ships on the lake passed slowly, leaving a trail. The weeping willows by the lake swayed with the wind, as if welcoming every tourist. Walking along the lake, came to the promenade. The corridor is like a ribbon, twisting and twisting, the corridor is full of exquisite paintings, each telling an ancient story. Walking in it, it seems to have traveled through time and space, back to that glorious era. From the corridor, it is Wanshou Mountain. On the top of the level, the Foxiang Pavilion stands on the top of the mountain, magnificent and magnificent. Standing in front of the Foxiang Pavilion, overlooking the entire Summer Palace, Kunming Lake is like a huge mirror, the sixth bridge of Xidi is like a jade belt, and the Yuquan Mountain and Xishan Mountain in the distance are rolling and rolling, and the scenery is panoramic. After going down the mountain, I came to Shiqi. This stone raft is beautifully shaped, as if it can sail at any time. Sitting on the edge of the stone, the breeze is blowing, and the lake is gently patting the shore, which makes people feel refreshed. The beauty of the Summer Palace is not only its natural scenery, but also its deep historical and cultural heritage. Every scene here carries countless stories, making people linger.

The boss is very good. Not only did he change us to a big room, but also helped me contact the carpool driver, and also called the carpool driver several times to confirm whether he received anyone? What a warm-hearted person.
Trip.com ticket booking is still very convenient, Baotu Spring must go early, otherwise the crowd will affect the mood of playing. We entered the park at 8 o'clock in the morning and it was very silky, and the spring water everywhere was too comfortable.

The water above Zhongtianmen will be more expensive, and other places are fine. The wind on the top of Mount Tai is very strong, the sun is very sun, you need to bring sunglasses and hats, many people climb up, and many children are brought by their parents, and the stairs are one step up.
The overall effect is not bad! Beijing-Tai'an 2 days and 1 night itinerary, the overall cost is about 1,000 yuan. At the foot of Mount Tai, which arrived at 4 pm on May 31, it took 6 hours to walk up the mountain to reach the Jade Emperor's top. (During the Dragon Boat Festival, the night climber thief watched the sunrise and found a good location in advance). On the top of the mountain, there is a 60 yuan rent coat to watch the sunrise (the military coat is old and resistant to the wind). It was so beautiful to see the sunrise on the top of the mountain at around 5 am on June 1, and all fatigue disappeared instantly. After watching the sunrise, you can take the cable car down the mountain (there are many people waiting for the cable car to queue for about 2 hours on the same day), and you can walk to Zhongtianmen for about1.5 hours without waiting for the cable car to go down the mountain. Zhongtianmen takes the bus bus to the foot of the mountain for 30 minutes. At noon on June 1, I found a hotel to take a shower and rest for about 5 hours (the physical strength returned to normal) and take the high-speed rail back to Beijing.

The tickets are easy as it provides the Qr codes directly. Love trip.com as it allows tickets to be purchased on the day b4 or same day. These zoo entrance tic doesn't include the panda house tickets. Had to buy inside for that. The most interesting highlight in the zoo is the panda house. The rest of the animals are sleeping in the day, and a few animals were not there. Love the dolphin show at the Aquarium although it was quite a short performance. Huge zoo and many varieties of animals. Although quite an old zoo but it was well maintained.
Entrance to the zoo was crowded and had to queue as it was public holiday in China during my visit. This tickets are easy as it provides the Qr codes directly. It doesn't include the panda house tickets though. Had to buy inside for that. The most interesting highlight in the zoo is the panda house. The rest of the animals are sleeping in the day, and a few animals like tiger are not there. Love the dolphin show at the Aquarium although it was quite a short performance.

Beijing Safari Park is a great place for family and nature lovers, like a vibrant animal kingdom. Enter the park, you can choose to drive or take a feeding car through the free-range area, and feel the wild charm of the animals up close: the majestic lions are lazy, the zebras and antelopes are foraging freely, the brown bears are licking the window, and the interactive experience is full of surprises and fun. The walking tour area is a step by step, the pink feathers of flamingo reflect on the sparkling lake, the clever little pandas shuttle in the treetops, the rare golden monkeys are lively, and each exhibition area has been ecologically designed to restore the natural habitat of the animals. The park has complete facilities, with a science promenade and animal performance venue, which teaches and entertains tourists to understand animal habits during viewing. In addition, intimate catering services and children's play areas take into account the needs of different ages. Whether it is immersing in the charm of wildlife or starting a parent-child trip, Beijing Safari Park can bring an unforgettable experience.
There were a lot of people at the zoo on Saturday and Sunday. There was a long line before the ticket check. The park is very large, but there are scenery and small animals along the way, so it is not boring at all. It is very good.
