Все аттракционы классные. Особенно понравилась зона Гарри Поттера. Рекомендую скачать приложение юниверсал студио и ориентироваться по карте. На карте указано время ожидания на аттракционы, можно идти туда, где время ожидания минимально. За день посетили 9 аттракционов и одно шоу
Отдыхали в середине июля. Очереди гораздо меньше, чем в Диснейлэнде в Шанхае. Максимум очередь достигла 60 минут. За целый день успели посетить 9 аттракционов ( один из них дважды) + шоу по мотивам водного мира. Все аттракционы очень интересные, водное шоу просто огонь!! В шоу принимали участие каскадеры.

The storyteller guides are quick thinkers, have strong communication skills, and are able to communicate and interact deeply with travelers. The guides have a good grasp of details, making the trip safe, convenient, comfortable, and enjoyable.
Today I took my parents and children to visit the Forbidden City. I was very lucky to meet this guide Hou! His explanation was great! Guide Hou was very good at talking about the history, architecture, and cultural relics of the Forbidden City. His explanation was clear and focused. He did not recite in a boring way, but told the story in a lively and interesting way. Even the children listened with great interest and asked questions from time to time. He really made education fun.

Badaling Great Wall • Entry: Afternoon slot ¥80• Luggage: Free, supervised storage just outside the gate—hassle-free.• Ascent: Single-way cable car ¥70 saves 40 min of climbing; views en-route are already spectacular.• Top: Walked the gentle stone path next to the great wall, for more nature and less people. We walked until the big plaza, then exit.• Descent: walked back down, easy to go back to where we started and get our luggage. Verdict: Classic, well-restored wall with efficient transport and services. Perfect half-day outing if you arrive after lunch.
You can have a look, the intangible cultural heritage performance is quite good, recommended to watch, the old Beijing fried noodles with soybean paste, the noodles are delicious, the side dishes are a little bit worse. The tour guide, Director Sun, has a good service attitude, recommended!

Despite the traffic jam, we arrived after 9 o'clock and still caught the 9 am show. Tour guide Xin was very professional and had a loud voice. He talked a lot about the history of the Northern Wei Dynasty. Three hours was quite tiring, mainly because there were too many tourists and we had to queue.
The tour guide Xiaoma has a great attitude. He was smiling the whole time, explained patiently and carefully, and told the stories of the scenic spots vividly. He answered all the questions everyone had and took the initiative to care about everyone. He was very considerate!

Under the guidance of our guide Sun, we spent 4 hours to visit Prince Gong's Mansion. Although the weather was very hot, our guide Sun was enthusiastic and humorous. He explained the past and present of Prince Gong's Mansion and showed us the three unique treasures and one treasure of Prince Gong's Mansion. In short, the trip was worthwhile.
Xiucai said Jiang Shangyi explained the Prince Gong Mansion in detail. The Prince Gong Mansion has beautiful scenery and a rich history. Guide Jiang provided thoughtful service and professional explanation. Recommend Xiucai said it brought us a good experience!

The Temple of Heaven has exquisite architecture and profound meaning. It is suitable for children to visit. The weather is sunny in autumn, and it is also very photogenic. The entire Temple of Heaven Park is very large, so you should set aside at least half a day. It is best to report for a tour guide. With a guide's explanation, you will better understand the design of the ancient craftsmen and have a deeper understanding of the profound Chinese culture.
I like Teacher Xiao Cai's wonderful explanations. I listened more than I saw at various scenic spots in Beijing. Teacher Xiao Cai's explanations not only included ancient and modern history, interactive questions and answers, but also life philosophy. I was able to follow the whole process and persisted to the end. I can't do without Teacher Xiao Cai's explanations. I have to make an appointment with Teacher Xiao Cai! Highly recommended

The scenic transportation + cableway tour is easy and not tiring, saving time, completing the wish of paying respects to the Bixia Temple, climbing the Jade Emperor Peak, and enjoying the majestic Five Mountains. The fog gathers and disperses from time to time, but you can still feel the magnificence of Mount Tai!
I booked the trip about half a month in advance. Because I was afraid it would be too hot in summer, I chose to take a bus from Tianwai Village to Zhongtianmen before starting the climb. It was not hot or stuffy at all that day, and it was very comfortable. It took two hours to get from Zhongtianmen to Nantianmen. It took another half an hour from Nantianmen to Yuhuangding. Although it was not as shaky as the Eighteen Bends, it still required some physical strength. As the prices kept rising on the way up the mountain, the electrolyte water I bought at Zhongtianmen cost 10 yuan, and it became 15 yuan halfway up the mountain. The mineral water cost 2 yuan and 5 yuan, and gradually increased to 8 yuan and 10 yuan. But after all, it was on the mountain, so I felt that the price was acceptable. There were also cucumbers for 10 yuan for three.

Most tourists enter the Summer Palace from the East Gate, while the North Gate is less crowded and closest to the Beigongmen Station of Metro Line 4. Entering from the North Gate is Suzhou Street, which is a shopping street based on Suzhou Shantang Street. Tickets must be purchased separately. Entering the North Gate is the back mountain of the Summer Palace. The attractions of the back mountain are Xumi Lingjing and the Four Continents, which are a group of mixed Han-Tibetan Buddhist buildings. In 1755, when suppressing the Junggar Rebellion, Qianlong received support from the upper echelons of the four tribes of the Mongolian Walut, and for this reason, he specially built the Four Continents in the back mountain in imitation of the Samye Monastery in Shannan, Tibet. The Four Continents of the Summer Palace and the Four Continents of the Puning Temple in the Eight Outer Temples of the Chengde Mountain Resort use the same drawings and the same construction team. In 1860, the British and French allied forces entered the Summer Palace and burned down the Xumi Spiritual Realm. The current structure was rebuilt in 1980. From 2010 to 2012, it underwent large-scale repairs to restore the four major continents. Above the four major continents is the Sea of Wisdom, which is the tallest building in the Summer Palace and was built during the Qianlong period. The Sea of Wisdom is a stone building. The hall enshrines countless Buddha statues. The outer layer is decorated with glazed tiles and carved with thousands of glazed Buddha statues. When the Eight-Power Allied Forces invaded, the Buddha statues were severely damaged, but now they have been repaired. Climbing up the Sea of Wisdom and looking down at Kunming Lake, one's heart is surging with emotion. History has passed here, and the stories that happened here are unforgettable.
I live near the Summer Palace, so I often go to the Summer Palace. The overall feeling is that the Summer Palace is beautiful every season, showing the style of the Royal Forest Garden. If you are a friend from other places to visit the Summer Palace, because the area of the park is very large, it is unlikely to visit the entire park in a day. It is recommended to enter the new palace gate and play for five or six hours. You can visit the following attractions: 1. Seventeen-hole bridge: After entering the new palace gate, you can go directly to the seventeen-hole bridge. It is one of the landmarks of the Summer Palace, the bridge has 17 bridge holes, beautiful shape, especially at certain times, the sun through the bridge hole, there will be a "golden light through the hole" spectacle. ​ 2. Nanhu Island: You can reach Nanhu Island through the 17-hole bridge. There are buildings such as the Dragon King Temple on the island. Here you can enjoy the panoramic view of Kunming Lake and feel the vastness and tranquility of the lake. ​ 3. Xidi: Walking along the west bank of Kunming Lake can come to Xidi, the peach blossoms are in full bloom in spring, the scenery is picturesque, and other seasons have different beautiful scenery. In summer, the trees are shaded, the autumn lake is autumn, and the winter silver is wrapped in vegetarian clothes. You can also enjoy the chic landscape such as the Xidi Liuqiao. ​ 4. Corridor: Return from the West Dike, you can go to the Corridor. The Corridor is the longest colored gallery in the world, 728 meters long, and each beam in the corridor is painted with colored paintings, bright colors, rich content, and very artistic value. ​ 5. Foxiang Pavilion: The end of the promenade is close to the Foxiang Pavilion. The Foxiang Pavilion is the commanding height of the Summer Palace. It can overlook the entire Kunming Lake and the surrounding scenery, and the scenery of Wanshou Mountain can be seen. It is also the essence of the Summer Palace architecture. ​ 6. Leshoutang: From the Buddha Xiang Monastery, you can go to Leshoutang. This is the Queen Mother Cixi's Bedroom Palace. There is a famous Taihu Stone "Qingzhixuan" in the courtyard. There are many cultural relics and treasures on display in the hall, which can make tourists feel the luxury of royal court life. ​ 7. Renshou Palace: Continue to reach Renshou Palace, which is the political center of the Summer Palace, the place where Qianlong and Emperor Guangxu came to the dynasty for political affairs. There are many cultural relics and decorations on display in the palace. You can learn about the scene of the royal government activities here.

Baotu Spring, Jinan handed the world live poetry. Three streams of clear springs leaped up, playing the millennium singing of "Water surges like a wheel" with the water level of 28.38 meters. On the edge of the blue stone column, the "first spring" of Qianlong's royal pen reflected the water light, and the spirit of Lao She's pens rushed here. Tourists compete for the scenery under the heat wave of 34℃, just to touch the soul of this "cloud and mist" spring - it is the cry of groundwater, the rhyme of "wash jade word", and the firework totem in the blood of Jinan people.
I always have to go and see the Baotu Spring in the textbook "Always so pure, always so lively, always so vivid, bubbling, bubbling, as if never tired." From Lao She's "Baotu Spring"

Pingyao Ancient City is the physical value of the development of Chinese civilization. Shanxi Province is a "treasure house of ancient Chinese architecture", and Pingyao is a shining pearl in this treasure house. There are rich cultural relics in the territory, with more than 300 discovered underground and above-ground sites and relics. There are 105 key cultural relics units listed for protection by governments at all levels, including 11 national protected units, and 27 are included in the World Cultural Heritage List. It is one of the county-level cities in the country with the most national key cultural relics protection units, which are extremely precious in the country and even the world. In addition, the county has 1 national historical and cultural village, 10 provincial historical and cultural villages, and 2 national intangible cultural heritages!
On the way home from the ancient city, the cultural landscape is very good. It is recommended to hire a tour guide to talk about the whole ancient city. The cultural relics on the ground are indeed well-deserved. The performance of "Seeing Pingyao Again" is also worth watching. Family righteousness, traditional concepts... people who watch it are excited. At 5:30 pm when the sun is not shining, take a walk on the city wall, take a walk, chat, and go down from the city wall to have dinner. You can watch the light show at 9 pm. It is outside the South Gate. You can arrive 10 minutes early.
