E37***47Following tour guide Fang Yuan through the Forbidden City was a wonderful experience. Her explanations were detailed, witty, and humorous, making the entire tour anything but boring. She explained things that many other tour guides wouldn't, going beyond the typical, formulaic explanations. As someone who loves history and has some knowledge of it, I could tell the difference between good and bad. Thumbs up to guide Fang! 👍👍👍👍

Sha~Sha~The high-speed train from Beijing North Railway Station is very convenient! 👍🏻 It's a 5-minute walk from the train station to the entrance of the aerial cable car, which takes you directly to the 7th floor of the North Tower, and then you can walk to the 8th floor. This is the highest point, offering a panoramic view of the surrounding mountains!

嘣噔呛NO1In summary: 1. The Speedpass is a must-buy. For rides where you've queued for over an hour, you can go immediately and always be the first one on – it feels amazing! It saves so much time, allowing you to experience all the rides and five shows in one day. The time saved from queuing allows you to stroll leisurely, taking photos and browsing the themed shops. 2. 60% of the park staff are enthusiastic and hospitable, proactively greeting visitors and answering all questions. 20% are in a chatty mode; they're not happy to bother you, but they'll still respond. The remaining 20% are either still half-asleep in the morning, haven't eaten enough at lunch, or are too tired in the evening – they're indifferent if you ask a question, and will basically roll their eyes if you ask a couple. 3. All the performers in the park are well worth their pay, giving enthusiastic performances with maximum emotional value, rehearsing and reenacting scenes repeatedly – it's a truly tiring day. 4. What I find most incomprehensible is that as a Chinese citizen, you should be able to enter the park with just a valid Chinese ID card or an internationally recognized passport. No, they only allow Chinese citizens with ID cards; Chinese passports are not accepted. They say only foreigners can use passports. Does a Chinese passport mean it's useless in China? It's a document usable in every country, but not in our own country? If it's not usable, then don't open a ticket purchase portal for Chinese citizens with passports on Ctrip. Even after opening it and buying tickets, you're not allowed in at the gate and have to get a civil aviation identity verification certificate (although there's one at a nearby service center). I don't mean to be fussy or break the rules, but I can't accept that my Chinese passport isn't usable at home; it's unsettling. 5. The restaurants inside the park weren't too expensive overall. A super-sized bucket of caramel popcorn I bought at Kung Fu Panda cost 35 yuan, which was bigger, had more sugar, and was crispier than the 48 yuan bucket I bought at Wanda Cinema, and it was 13 yuan cheaper—that was unexpected. I didn't buy any water all day; there were drinking fountains along the way, so I just opened them and drank. If you wanted something hot, you just needed a cup. In short, it was fun, exciting, physically demanding, and expensive. For me, I've experienced it all, and I won't go back.

Sunny_SaniMarked as a World Heritage Site, Temple of Heaven is absolutely worth a visit! The largest building (Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests) is visible miles away if you are walking towards it (making it convenient - can close out of Baidu maps and just keep walking which is what we did haha!) We purchased tickets upon arrival, easy process. There were many people taking photographs but you can get good shots if you tilt your camera up or get lucky with timing. The park itself is beautiful and serene, making it a great place to relax and enjoy for 1-2 hours.

关裕年guanyunianToday, let's talk about the Long Corridor in the Summer Palace, another iconic building in Beijing. Located between the southern foot of Longevity Hill and the northern bank of Kunming Lake, it was first built in 1750 during the reign of Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty. Destroyed by the Anglo-French allied forces in 1860, it was rebuilt in 1888. The corridor stretches from the Inviting Moon Gate in the east to the Stone Pavilion in the west, passing through the Cloud-Dispelling Gate in the middle, symbolizing the four seasons. It is 728 meters long, with 273 bays and 548 pillars. The Long Corridor is renowned for its exquisite architecture, winding paths, and richly decorated paintings, making it the longest corridor in ancient Chinese architecture and gardens. It is also a vibrant art gallery, with over 14,000 paintings adorning every beam, creating a magnificent and colorful spectacle. The paintings primarily depict landscapes, flowers and birds, and scenes from the four great classical Chinese novels. The artists have condensed thousands of years of Chinese history and culture onto this long corridor. When you arrive at this place, you can see many people taking a break, looking at the water scenery of Kunming Lake, looking directly at the island in the middle of the lake and the Seventeen-Arch Bridge, and looking up at the Tower of Buddhist Incense in the distance. This is a collection of independent landscapes. It is a typical example of Chinese culture as an "art gallery". You can never get enough of it. The whole content could be written into a good book.

老刘一直在路上Standing 200 centimeters tall, this seated statue is one of the largest Song Dynasty wood carvings in Chinese museums. The Bodhisattva wears a tall floral crown, her hair tied in a high bun, with large earlobes and full cheeks. Her expression is dignified and serene, her eyes looking down as if compassionately watching over humanity. She is adorned with a necklace, draped in a flowing robe with ribbons around her arms, and wears a long, brightly colored skirt that reaches the ground. Her right hand holds a lotus flower, her left leg hangs down, her foot resting on a rock, while her right leg is slightly crossed, creating an ethereal and otherworldly pose. The carving is extremely fluid and delicate, with even and rhythmic lines. The skin is smooth and full, and despite its age, the painted details on the clothing are still faintly visible, making it an exquisite masterpiece.

老少皆宜（程世荣）Chaoyang Park in Beijing is located on the North Fourth Ring Road in East China. It's a large park built on a puddle of land. Chaoyang Park is quite extensive and features a large lake. Chaoyang Park frequently hosts various events, and the surrounding area boasts comprehensive facilities. To the west of the park is the Blue Harbor commercial street, which is very lively in the evenings. This park is especially suitable for families with children; many parents bring their kids to Chaoyang Park to relax on weekends.
