High-speed rail direct access! 6 super cool summer vacation spots to take your kids to

Help! There really are places that are both cool and fun for kids! 🚄 No need to drive yourself to exhaustion, the high-speed rail brings full happiness~ These 6 places are the perfect cure for summer "kid craziness," you can even save on air conditioning❄️ Quickly save this list👇 🏔️ Beidaihe — The natural air-conditioned room by the sea Who can resist summer by the sea! When the sea breeze blows in Beidaihe, the 38°C heat instantly drops to 25°C🌊! Take the kids with their little buckets to Pigeon Nest Park to hunt for crabs🦀 and collect shells🐚. Kids can play on the beach all day! In the evening, take the little train for a leisurely ride around Biluota Seaside Park, where the sunset dyes the sea orange🌇, perfect for family photos with a great atmosphere~ 🌲 Mogan Mountain — Stay in a fairy tale forest A summer escape just 1 hour by high-speed rail! The bamboo forest in Mogan Mountain is like a natural giant refrigerator🌳. Take the kids to splash in the streams along the trails and chase butterflies🦋, breathing in the sweet scent of fresh grass~ Set up a small tent⛺️ in the guesthouse yard, watch ants move home, and count stars✨ with the kids. Sleeping wrapped in a thin quilt at night is what summer should feel like! 🎢 Dalian — Seaside amusement park blast The romantic northern seaside is none other than Dalian! Feed the seagulls at Xinghai Square🕊️, kids love chasing the flocks of white birds~ The Geopark at Jinshitan hides oddly shaped rocks🗿, turning into a "mini geology class" in seconds! When tired, rush to eat seaweed buns and steamed jelly🍥, all for about 30 RMB per person until full! 🌊 Weihai — The dreamy coastline from a comic book Take the high-speed rail and enjoy mountain and sea views all the way, then step off and enter a Studio Ghibli animation! Every snap on Torch Street in Weihai looks like a movie poster📸. Rent a family bike🚲 and slowly ride along the coastal road, with sea breeze and waves crashing on the rocks🌊. Stop on the beach to build sandcastles, playing until dark and reluctant to leave~ 🏕️ Anji — Oxygen and water fun combined Anji, surrounded by bamboo forests, is so healing! Take the kids to Zhongnan Herb Garden to get close to deer🦌 and alpacas🦙, and ride the little train through the forest🌳~ The water at Canglong Hundred Waterfalls is crystal clear, let the kids change into sandals to splash and have water fights🔫, super refreshing and cooling! Stay overnight in a treehouse guesthouse, falling asleep to the sound of insects🌙~ 🌉 Qingdao — A fairy tale world of red tiles and green trees Arrive by high-speed rail and be struck by Qingdao’s romance! The old villas in Badaguan look like castles🏰. Picnic and chase bubbles🧼 on the lawn with the kids~ Watch the sunset at Xiaomai Island with the sea breeze, kids use fishing nets to find little crabs🦀 in the rock crevices, playing until soaked but super happy! Paired with freshly made potstickers🥟, it’s perfect! Super practical tips for traveling with kids✨ ✅ Buy high-speed rail child tickets in advance🎫, window seats are great for sightseeing ✅ Bring a small fan and mosquito repellent patches, prepare change of clothes for water play👚 ✅ Choose "kid-friendly" attractions to avoid unnecessary walking🚶 ✅ Prepare snacks and picture books, no worries about kids crying on long trips🍫📖 Don’t let the kids stay home this summer!
