Xiangshawan is the desert I most want to visit when I go to Inner Mongolia. Because I need to bring children, there are food for sale there, which is a bit commercialized. But it’s my first time in the desert, and I still feel good.
A good trip. The tour guide Xiaolong was very considerate to remind us of the weather forecast the day before yesterday, so we added clothes in time to prevent the risk of catching a cold. The tour items were explained in detail and attentively. 5-star praise

The room was spacious, the service was excellent, parking was convenient at the entrance, and there was free bottled water and ice cream in the lobby. There was also a washing machine and refrigerator for self-use. It was just a few minutes' walk from the Wooden Pagoda Scenic Area. Fantastic!
Yanmen Pass, the foremost of the Nine Great Fortresses of China, has guarded the Chinese nation for millennia. From its establishment by King Wuling of Zhao during the Warring States Period to the Han Dynasty's campaign against the Xiongnu, the Tang Dynasty's defense against the Turks, the Song Dynasty's resistance against the Liao and Jin dynasties, and the Ming Dynasty's defense against the Mongols, this place has witnessed countless battles. It's a true epitome of Chinese frontier culture. Here, I even imagined the "bloody battle of Yanmen Pass" in the story of the Yang Family Generals. It felt as if I were witnessing major historical events like Wang Zhaojun's expedition to the frontier and the abduction of Emperor Qinzong of Song. And then there were the footsteps of famous generals like Li Mu, Meng Tian, Wei Qing, and Huo Qubing, who garrisoned or fought here. It was truly awe-inspiring.

The botanical garden is really big, so big, so big. It's so tiring to walk there. There are so many koi, so many trees, so many flowers. The main thing is the cool wind, good air, and the beautiful starry sky. Hahahaha
Our guide, Xiao Gao, was incredibly professional. His explanations of the attractions were engaging and lively. The itinerary was just the right amount of time, allowing us to have a blast without feeling exhausted. He was incredibly caring throughout the entire trip. This trip was a fabulous experience!
Our guide, Xiao Gao, was enthusiastic and patient. His itinerary was incredibly well-planned, avoiding crowds while still visiting the highlights. The trip was comfortable and fulfilling. I highly recommend this guide and their arrangements!

Very beautiful grassland, many projects are well organized, the children had a lot of fun, equestrian performances, flying grassland, the actors are dedicated and have superb acting skills, very exciting, the accommodation in the grassland is clean, the yurt is large and well-equipped, and the service attitude is also very good
Overall, the grassland is relatively large. There is a bonfire party at the entrance of the parking lot. Then there is a hero theater. Three games. The flying grassland is far away. You have to queue up to take the small train. In August, there are many people. The bonfire party is chaotic. It starts with the light show and the torch dance. The back is basically interactive and actors. Dancing, after a day of watching the show, I can't play a few projects.

Shanxi is a great place to visit for its above-ground cultural relics, and Shaanxi is a great place to visit for its underground artifacts. Shanxi is definitely worth a visit, especially for those interested in history. It's just that Shanxi is a bit under the radar and doesn't get a lot of publicity.
This trip was a delightful one, and the tour guide was incredibly thoughtful! He planned the route in advance to avoid crowds, constantly reminded us to bring our belongings and be safe, and promptly helped anyone with any needs. He was like a thoughtful friend, making the trip incredibly stress-free!
The driver was also very attentive and took great care of us.
The only downside was that the car was a bit old.
Overall, it was a joyful and unforgettable trip.
The kids loved it, especially the simulated mine, which was a very immersive experience.
Coal is an energy storage medium. Nature has spent hundreds of millions of years achieving energy conservation, storing solar energy absorbed by ancient plants through photosynthesis in coal. Modern people then dig it up and ignite it to produce heat and carbon dioxide.

I went to Kangbashi Museum some time ago, and it was really amazing! As soon as I walked to the front of the museum, I was attracted by the unique architectural shape, which looked like a rock that had been polished by time and had a special sense of history. After entering, the various exhibits were dazzling. There were ancient bronzes, exquisite ceramics, and precious calligraphy and paintings. Listening to the story behind these exhibits introduced by the guide, it was as if I traveled through time and space, and personally experienced the long history and splendid culture of Ordos. I felt very rewarding. I sincerely recommend everyone to go and have a look!
The exhibition design is very attentive, divided according to the natural development context, the visiting route is clear, the transition is natural, and it is not tiring to visit. The lighting and sound effects are also amazing. In the simulated tropical rainforest exhibition area, the lighting is combined with the sound of birds and wind, as if you are in the depths of the rainforest.

There were a lot of people today, but it didn't affect the experience. The queues for each project basically took half an hour. I've been here several times, and my children always want to come again.
There were so many people at Fantawild on May Day that you had to wait in line for about 120 minutes for any popular project, but the fireworks at night were so beautiful, and I also saw Phoenix 🐦🔥. In short, it is still the first choice for holiday travel! There are many people but the atmosphere is particularly good!

We traveled here from Shenyang with my parents and kids. We visited Zhenguo Temple, Shuanglin Temple, and finally the ancient castle. It was better than expected, with both the castle above ground and the underground tunnels worth seeing. Buying tickets on Ctrip was very convenient, allowing you to use them on the go.
A guide is a must; it's excellent.
Also known as Zhangbi Village, it's located in Zhangbi Village, Longfeng Town, Jiexiu City, Shanxi Province. Built during the Sixteen Kingdoms period, it covers an area of 12,000 square meters. Zhangbi Castle was constructed according to traditional Chinese astrology and geomancy principles, with the ground reflecting the Yin-Yang and Five Elements.

The ticket I bought online at Ctrip was the same as the one I bought on site, 85 yuan for a round trip. When I went to Haisha Peninsula, the boarding terminal was a bit chaotic. Tourists rushed to the boarding gate wherever the boat arrived, so that the tourists in the front of the line could not get on the boat, while the tourists in the back of the line got on the boat early. I hope the scenic area pier can manage it to prevent the elderly and children from being squeezed and in danger.
It is rare to find such a scenic spot in China that includes deserts, grasslands, and lakes. Hongjiannao is located in Yulin, northern Shaanxi. The parking lot is a bit small and there is no one to direct the flow of cars. At noon, the parking lot was full of cars. Later, the cars did not know and were all circling around in it. Hongjiannao has beautiful scenery and many water activities. It is worth a visit.

The hotel service is friendly, clean and tidy, the room is warm and spacious, the hotel location is excellent, the housekeeping staff is also very friendly, the front desk girl is also very enthusiastic, the room price is very affordable, cost-effective! I have received more than one comfortable and pleasant stay experience, and there are fireworks on earth, this is my evaluation of this hotel. Excellent
It was unexpectedly quite large, and there were quite a few animals inside. If you are tired of walking, you can choose a sightseeing train or battery car. It seems that you need to buy a sightseeing ticket to see the wild animal area, so we didn't go to see it.
