Standing on the deck of the Tianjin aircraft carrier, the steely texture of the massive vessel hits you head-on. Gun barrels point skyward, and the stained dashboards within hold stories of the past. The sea breeze sweeps across, and the roar of the engines echoes. Touching the cold hull, you feel the weight of history and the awe of military engineering. Every detail speaks of past glory, giving you a deeper understanding of peace and strength.
I brought my parents here, and the elderly still like these. The aircraft carrier is a bit old, but it is worth watching a few performances. The car stunts have a code cow, don't miss it, and you can also see the motorcycles. The performance of the aircraft carrier is a bit like a smaller version of Universal Studios' Water World. You need to buy a separate ticket on holidays, but not on weekdays. In short, it is still quite lively.

Tianjin Eye (Tianjin Yongle Bridge Ferris Wheel) is a landmark building in Tianjin. It is located on the Yongle Bridge at the junction of Hebei District and Hongqiao District, across the Haihe River. It is the only Ferris Wheel built on the bridge in the world. Basic information, height : 119.8 meters; diameter : 110 meters; number of cockpits : 48 transparent cockpits, each can accommodate 8 people, total passenger capacity 384 people; rotation time : about 28 minutes. design inspiration imitate the London Eye, combine the unique shape of bridges and Ferris wheels, both sightseeing and transportation functions; Night view experience is excellent, the night lights are shining, and the landscape on both sides of the Haihe River is interesting, known as the "Eye of Tianjin".
It's a popular check-in spot. I experienced it myself. The Ferris wheel is very stable. It doesn't shake even when you reach the top. The cabin is very clean and you can see the scenery. The only problem is that there are so many people queuing up. You have to go early to make an appointment. The customer service phone is just for show and no one answers the phone at any time.

This is a high-quality museum that covers everything. It is large and comprehensive, and the night session is very friendly, until 9pm! The live exhibition is great, and the dream world of jellyfish is very beautiful!
There were too many people and I couldn't get a ticket. I bought a ticket for the Blue Home Living Museum. It was very big and I could see the sea in the distance (it should be the sea). It's just too far from the city and the transportation is not very convenient.

Today, I took a ride on the Fantawild Crystal Palace indoor tour bus to watch "Nezha Conquers the Dragon King." It was so immersive! As the bus shuttled through, the light and shadow effects were super shocking. Nezha's image came alive, as if he were in the underwater dragon palace. The visual impact was full, and the experience was perfect. Adults and children were fascinated by it! Highly recommend this Crystal Palace program.
The "Boonie Bears Adventure" interactive attraction in the park is truly fascinating! Sitting on the tour bus and shooting monsters with a launcher feels like stepping into the forests of Gou Xiong Ling. The surrounding scenery is incredibly realistic, and even the voices of Big Bear and Little Bear are incredibly lifelike. Plus, there's a score comparison at the end, so playing with friends and competing against each other is incredibly satisfying!

It's so fun here! Not only does it have a dreamy aquarium and a vibrant jellyfish aquarium, but it also features a variety of exciting performances. Next door is a water park where you can have fun and a fun-filled amusement park. You can have fun all day without repeating yourself!
It's quite good, and combining several shows can fill up half a day.
The only downside is that the Ice and Snow World is a rip-off. There's no entrance fee, but you do need to rent a winter coat. And the place is tiny, with only a 50-meter ice sculpture display.

The facilities are very close together, so it doesn't take long to get from one to the next. There was a celebrity performance that day, which resulted in a large crowd, significantly impacting the experience. However, the park actually offered a free, voluntary transfer to Ocean Park, as the two parks are connected by a pathway. Ocean Park was so much fun that my kids spent five hours there and still weren't satisfied.
Tianjin Happy Valley is still very playable, especially in the summer when it is more comfortable to play indoors. There are many indoor activities for children to play. In short, it is still worth a visit.

Shadow puppetry is an outstanding representative of folk art with extremely high artistic value and cultural connotation. It uses simple and expressive shadow puppetry to show the world and human nature. Whether it is a historical drama or a traditional story, it can be wonderfully presented on the stage of shadow puppetry. During the performance, the perfect combination of light and shadow puppetry creates a dreamlike atmosphere, making the audience feel as if they are in another time and space. Moreover, the inheritance of shadow puppetry is of extraordinary significance. It connects the past and the present, allowing the ancient culture to continue and develop with the efforts of a new generation of artists. Every time you watch a shadow puppetry, it is a tribute to traditional culture and a baptism of the soul.
Watching shadow puppetry is like traveling through time and space, stepping into a world full of fantasy and poetry. The craftsmanship of shadow puppetry is exquisite, and every line and every color is poured into the craftsmen's efforts. From material selection to carving and coloring, all show the charm of traditional handicrafts. During the performance, the artists rely on their superb skills and rich experience to make the shadow puppets agile behind the curtain, showing their charm in every gesture. Their singing is either gentle and melodious, or high-pitched and passionate, which matches the plot just right and can quickly bring the audience into the story situation. With its unique artistic charm, shadow puppetry opens a window for us to understand traditional culture, allowing us to find a sense of simplicity and tranquility in the hustle and bustle of modern society.

1. Compared to other former villa sites, the building is larger, the setting less like Jingyuan's Gongjing, and the architectural style is unique. 2. Zhang Garden offers rich historical information, featuring historical figures such as Puyi and Sun Yat-sen, who left their mark here. 3. The main building showcases Tianjin's century-long history, covering the liberation of Tianjin, the establishment of the Tianjin Military Control Commission, and the construction of Tianjin. 4. Zhang Garden's Past: Extensive exhibits showcase the former residences of Puyi, Yan Xishan, and others, the history of the Japanese Concession, and include old photos and documents. 5. Cultural and creative product shop. 6. Great photo spots: In front of the main building square, in train cars, on jeeps, and along the main building staircase. 7. The garden offers interactive activities and situational explanations. 8. Convenient transportation: Located in Tianjin's Heping District, in the city center, with excellent public transportation and access to Metro Line 1. 9. Ticket price: Affordable, though higher than Jingyuan.
It was a very good experience. It was my first time to participate in a live performance. The atmosphere was great. The only drawback was that there were too many people. Fortunately, the intervals between each performance were not long, so I could experience it more in a row. For the actors, they were still so passionate after performing so many performances in one day. It really deserves praise 👍

I've always wanted to go, and finally got my wish! I think our plan was relatively energy-saving, walking counterclockwise, and there were fewer people. The route was as follows: After entering the scenic area, we took a bus to Guayue Peak, then took the cable car up the mountain. The bus ticket and the Guayue Peak cable car were included, costing 100 yuan; then we walked to the summit. After reaching the top, we walked down the mountain. There were two other cable cars along the way, one was the Yunsong Cable Car, and the other was the Rusheng Cable Car. My family didn't take either of them, and we walked all the way down, about 5 kilometers, and the whole journey took 4-5 hours. The scenery of Panshan is still amazing, it's beautiful. If I had known about Panshan, why would I go to Jiangnan?
The scenery is beautiful, the trees are lush, and there is a cable car if you can't climb up. There are dedicated people to guide vehicles in the parking lot, so there will be no congestion. I bought three tickets and refunded two. The refund was timely.
