The average temperature in June is a super comfortable 25℃; sun protection clothing and a straw hat are perfect during the day, and a light jacket is just right for the evening~ ​​🚗【3-Day, 2-Night Itinerary】​​ ​​Day 1: Time-Traveling Exploration Mode​​ 🌅 ​​Morning​​: Dive into the free Luanzhou Ancient City (8:00-22:00)! A ride on the Qinglong River sculling boat is a must (RMB 30/person). The boatwomen sing folk songs, and the dark tiled roofs and white walls on both banks look like an ink wash painting. Remember to take stunning Hanfu photos at Wenji Tower~ 🍜 ​​Noon​​: Head to "Tangshan Feast" (10:00-21:30)! On the first floor, you must try the honey sesame candy pulling demonstration at the snack street. On the second floor, the folk exhibition features moving shadow puppet robots 🤖. 🌃 ​​Evening​​: Hetou Old Street (16:00-23:00) is absolutely stunning! For RMB 58, watch "The Tang King's Eastern Expedition" live show + iron flower performance. At the waterfront market, buy some juicy mushroom and shrimp paste. When the lanterns light up, you'll instantly be transported back to the prosperous Tang Dynasty! ​​Day 2: Island & Industrial Wonders​​ 🌊 ​​Morning​​: Take a taxi to Yuetuo Island (8:30-17:30). The ticket, including the boat fare, is RMB 80! Stay in a waterfront cabin where the sea is right outside your window. When the tide recedes, you can grab a bucket and go clamming for small crabs 🦀. 🏭 ​​Afternoon​​: Kailuan Museum (9:00-16:30) is super impressive! Put on a miner's helmet and take a small train down a simulated mine shaft (RMB 40). It's chilly underground, remember to bring a jacket ❄️. 🍻 ​​Evening​​: Enjoy skewers at Meiyidao Night Market! I recommend the sesame paste grilled bread slices from "Xiaoshanyang BBQ" – the caramel aroma mixed with sesame paste is incredibly addictive. ​​Day 3: Artistic & Healing Day​​ 🌸 ​​Morning​​: Nanhu Park (free!) Rent a tandem bicycle (RMB 30/hour). The ceramic exhibition at the Lakeside Art Museum is breathtakingly beautiful, and Cloud Island Cafe is absolutely perfect for photos ☁️. 🛍️ ​​Afternoon​​: Explore the bookstore converted from a cement factory at Qixin 1889 Cultural and Creative Park.

The underground exploration is incredibly impressive, highly recommended for family trips 👨‍👧. ​​🏨【Accommodation Recommendations】​​ First choice: ​​Shangri-La Hotel, Tangshan​​! The only five-star hotel in the city, with bathtubs offering a view of Nanhu Park's night scenery 🌌. The breakfast buffet includes Gezha Hezi and freshly ground almond tea~ If you're on a budget, choose the ​​Yuetuo Island Waterfront Cabins​​ – who understands the feeling of waking up to the sound of waves in the morning! ​​🚌【Transportation Guide】​​ City buses are super convenient: • You 1 bus goes directly to Nanhu Park. • You 5 bus connects Tangshan Feast + Earthquake Memorial Museum. • For Yuetuo Island, carpooling is recommended (RMB 50/person). Bus K3 requires transfers, which is too troublesome 😭. ​​💡【Hard-Earned Tips】​​ • Use SPF50+ sunscreen at the beach! I got lazy and ended up with sandal tan lines... • Tangshan dialect is super interesting. "Zhibudao = Buzhidao (don't know)". Learn a few phrases and instantly become a local. • For seafood, go to Caofeidian Market. Remember to bargain for at least 70% off! ​​🍽️【Mouth-Watering Food List】​​ ​​Qizi Shaobing​​: The meat filling is like a small cannonball, and the flaky crust crumbles so much it can make a sound when it hits the table! ​​Gezha Qianzi​​: Mung bean flour wrapped meat, fried until golden, so fragrant with garlic sauce you'll lick your fingers. ​​Bohai Prawns​​: Steamed, the meat is so springy it could bounce like a ping-pong ball 🏓. ​​Honey Sesame Candy​​: It can stretch so long it could wrap around your neck three times, a must-try for sweet tooths! ​​Xiaoshan Fried Cakes​​: The molten red bean filling is so hot it burns your mouth, but you can't stop eating it. ​​💰【Estimated Cost Reference】​​ • Accommodation: Shangri-La RMB 800/night vs. Waterfront Cabin RMB 500/night • Food: RMB 50/person per meal, RMB 30 at the night market until you can barely stand • Transportation: Bus RMB 2/ride, taxi RMB 50/day • Activities: Total tickets approx. RMB 200 (excluding optional activities) Standing by the sea on Yuetuo Island, watching the sunset paint the windmills pink, I suddenly understood why Emperor Qianlong visited Jiangnan seven times~ Tangshan's sea is bluer than I imagined, its history more vivid than in textbooks, and even the street vendors' smiles have a unique Northern frankness. It's not as refined as an internet-famous city, but that raw yet warm authenticity is perhaps the true meaning of travel!

A Weekend Trip to Tangshan: Two Days and One Night|||I always thought of Tangshan as an industrial city, but I didn't expect that tourism had developed so well in the past two years. Taking advantage of the weekend, I set off from Beijing for a two-day, one-night trip to Tangshan. 🚃🚃Transportation Saturday: G8801 Beijing Railway Station 7:42 AM - Tangshan Railway Station 8:46 AM Sunday: T5604 Tangshan North Railway Station 4:07 PM - Beijing Railway Station 5:34 PM 🗺️🗺️Itinerary Day 1: Zhao Zhuang Morning Market - Wujiazhuang Catholic Church - Peiren Historical and Cultural District - Dachengshan Park - Qixin 1889 - Hetou Old Street Day 2: Tangshan Feast - Nanhu Park 🌟Zhao Zhuang Morning Market: I arrived early Saturday morning, dropped my luggage at the hotel, and went straight to Zhao Zhuang Morning Market. The morning market was crowded, and the dining area was indoors. Beef Korean noodles cost CNY 8, a large fried pancake cost CNY 3, and a large bowl of tofu pudding cost CNY 3. The prices were touching, the taste was decent, and the atmosphere was lively. The environment wasn't great, so if you have high standards for dining, you might want to skip this. 🌟Wujiazhuang Catholic Church: The architecture is quite beautiful. There were almost no people when I went. The magnolia trees on the east side of the church were about to bloom, and it should be a great photo spot when they are in full bloom. 🌟Peirenli: The district isn't very big. The most historic part is probably Peiren Girls' High School. There's a wall with the characters for Tangshan written on it, some cafes and a library. The dog at Little Elephant Cafe is super cute. It's a nice place to sit and relax. 🌟Dachengshan Park: Dachengshan Park is right next to Peirenli. I didn't realize until I went in that Dacheng Mountain was originally called Tangshan, and this is how Tangshan got its name. I climbed Dacheng Mountain and Ercheng Mountain. Neither is very high, but it was a nice spring hike in Tangshan. 🌟Qixin 1889: A smaller version of 798 Art District. The outer area is still under renovation, but there were many people taking photos. 🌟Hetou Old Street: This was the highlight of the trip. The old street isn't particularly large, but there are many shops along the river, and the scenic area also has many activities. It's worth a visit. I went in around 4:00 or 5:00 PM, strolled around, and then watched the "Tang King's Eastern Expedition" performance at 6:30 PM. I highly recommend the performance. The molten iron fireworks were spectacular (see my previous post for details). The scenic area looks beautiful after dark, and it really does feel like a "Tang Dynasty City That Never Sleeps" on the water. It even snowed on Saturday, which made watching the fireworks even more special. I lined up to buy Xiaoshan Fried Cakes in the scenic area. The red bean flavor was quite delicious. 🌟Tangshan Feast: I walked more than 30,000 steps the first day, so I slept in and didn't go out until almost 11:00 AM on Sunday. I went straight to Tangshan Feast. It was very lively. The first floor has all kinds of snacks, the second floor has some cultural and creative products, and the third floor is a restaurant. I tried the fried glutinous rice crackers, Grandma's spring pancakes, spring water tofu, and Tang Xiaoshu yogurt, all of which were quite good. There are also many places to take photos and rest. If you're not in a hurry, you can spend an afternoon there. 🌟Nanhu Park: Nanhu Park is beautiful under the blue sky. It feels a bit like Beihai Park and the Summer Palace. The peach blossoms on Longshan Mountain were already in bloom, and it was very relaxing to walk around the lake. 🌿🌿On the way back, the sun hadn't set yet when I got out of Beijing Railway Station, so I quickly went to the nearby Ming City Wall. The plum blossoms were in full bloom, and it was a very fulfilling weekend to enjoy them in the sunset.

I was asked crazy questions when I posted on WeChat Moments‼ ️Not Zigong... In Tangshan It is worthy of being the ceiling of the Northern Lantern Festival 🔝 Full of the flavor of the New Year After walking 20,000 steps, I found a great photo booth📸 It's really a waste to post to Moments like this during the Spring Festival ✌️ Just copy the homework . 📸【Photography location】 ❶ Birds Pay Homage to the Phoenix I would like to call it the "national beauty" of the lantern festival world.

⁉️I don't know what the relationship is between Tangshan Nanhu Eco-city Central Park and the Botanical Garden, or which one includes the other. Anyway, it's a large area. The outdoor plants are bare in winter, but there are still southern green plants in the greenhouse. You can take a look, but there's no need to come here just for this. ✅The north gate leads to the Cultural Square, where Tangshan Banquet and the library are located. You can visit them together.

Although the place is not big, the spiral staircase and the flower corridor on the second floor are great for photos. The first floor has a disappearing name, and the interactive experience hall and small playground on the second and third floors are suitable for taking children on weekends. 2️⃣ Domestic Garden 👉 The domestic garden is not far from the botanical garden, so you can visit them together. The Lingnan Garden and Kunming Garden have domestic architectural styles, which are also good for photos. 👉 The Jiangnan Garden is the highlight of the domestic garden. The Jiangnan-style garden is especially suitable for taking new Chinese-style and ancient-style photos. 3️⃣ International Garden 👉 European city landmark fountains, playful and cute Cupid, Athena sculptures, the entire Budapest Hotel and surrounding buildings, as if giving people the illusion of being in Europe, are great for photos. 4️⃣ Danfeng Chaoyang Square 👉 The music fountain show in Nanhu Park is held here every night, and the drone show on major holidays is also held here. 👉 The Love Trail next to it has a camping area, and there is a music bar by the lake nearby.
