It was a very satisfying shopping experience. The price-performance ratio was very high and the logistics was very fast. After receiving the item, I felt that the item was very good. I like it very much and will probably buy it again. Overall, I feel that it was a very good shopping experience.
It is a good choice to have afternoon tea when there are many people entering the park on Saturdays. You can rest, taste delicious food, and watch a show on the terrace without having to squeeze in with others. It is quite comfortable and cozy.

Overall, a family outing to the zoo was a pleasant and enjoyable drive-through. The only downside is that the animals in the free-range area aren't truly free-range, but rather seem to be caged. Otherwise, the environment was quite satisfactory and quite interesting. It's best to go early; if you go late, there will be too much traffic and it will be crowded.

Definitely a place for families and teens who love labubus. I thought I wouldnt enjoy it but I really loved inside the castle walk through it was gorgeous.
Pop Mart City Park, located in Beijing's Chaoyang Park, is China's first immersive theme park featuring trendy toys and IPs. It has attracted numerous fans, especially young people and families with children. Inside, visitors can take photos with their favorite IPs (such as Molly, Labubu, and Dimoo), purchase exclusive park merchandise, and participate in stamp collection activities, adding to the fun. The IP-themed food and beverages, such as Labubu-shaped waffles and Molly cupcakes, are adorable and perfect for photo ops.

Watch giant aircraft carriers at the square

The aircraft carrier is very spectacular and suitable for visiting. There are many comprehensive and detailed popular sciences, suitable for people of all ages to visit. It is an unforgettable experience and I will recommend it to my friends. It is suitable for military enthusiasts and people with a sense of gratitude. I hope to be able to board more aircraft carriers in the future. In addition to the aircraft carrier, there are also various wonderful performances and interactive projects. I look forward to seeing the fireworks in the future.
The TEDA aircraft carrier was a great experience. First, we visited the TEDA aircraft carrier. It was my first time inside an aircraft carrier. The design inside was particularly shocking. The shipboard was so large. It was my first time seeing such a large aircraft carrier. The doll experience was also very good. We also went to watch the car race. The players had first-class skills. The experience was very good and amazing. In the afternoon, we went to see the aviation storm. The performance was very realistic and worth coming back next time.

The Taiyuan Botanical Garden boasts a high-end, avant-garde design and is definitely worth a visit! Especially if you go at 4:30 PM to see the 5 PM acrobatic show, then see the three balls and fireflies, and finally take the elevator—it's a perfect arrangement! Perfect for families!
1. After arriving in Taiyuan, rest in the morning or visit the Twin Pagodas Temple. After lunch, go to the Jin Temple. From there, take a bus to the Botanical Gardens, which are very close.
2. There's no need to take the shuttle bus within the park; it's very close. Just outside the lobby is the popular elevator, which is right by the river. The three exhibition halls are just across the river, just across the bridge.
3. All three exhibition halls are great; since you paid 50 yuan for admission, you might as well visit them all.
4. There's a Dicos between the three exhibition halls, so you can grab some food and drinks and sit down after dark. However, they close before dark, driving customers away.
5. In early September, the three exhibition halls light up around 7:00 PM, and the lights change to different colors. There's also a skywalk between the exhibition halls that spirals upward, allowing you to take aerial photos of the night view.
6. In September, the elevators aren't crowded or lined up, so you can ride as many times as you want, but one trip up and one down is enough.

Daming Lake is truly beautiful. Located in the heart of Jinan's downtown area, it covers a large area and offers stunning scenery. The most important thing is that in the summer, when the weather is good, watching the sunset here is truly a truly enjoyable experience.
Nothing surprising here, a pretty average building. The highlight is the clay sculpture museum. There's an elevator, so it's OK. I wanted to go up to the top to see the view of Daming Lake. Very disappointed, there was nothing there. It doesn't live up to its name. Perhaps the night view is more spectacular.

The tour guide is very professional. He can show us the simulations in the science and technology museum. Many tour guides in other places can't play with them. The tour guide combines the children's school knowledge points and popularizes some science and technology knowledge on the spot, which is very useful for the children.
Overall Experience:
1. The venue is incredibly technological, with thoughtfully designed exhibits and a wide variety of them, offering both educational and playful content.
2. The venue is incredibly spacious. The main exhibition hall alone spans four floors, each with 2-4 halls. Each hall boasts an estimated 20-50 exhibits. While not every exhibit is enjoyable, even casually wandering around is incredibly tiring and time-consuming. Children can easily wander off, so it's recommended that they bring a smartwatch or have their parents supervise them closely.
3. There are virtually no resting areas within the venue, with adults and children sitting on the floor everywhere. Fortunately, the venue is clean, so you can sit anywhere without worrying about it.
4. It's incredibly crowded.

If you haven't ridden the Ferris wheel, you should definitely try it! It's a must-do in Tianjin. I rode it in 2017 and thought I'd give it another try with my kids this time! Unexpectedly, the Tianjin Eye's cabin has been upgraded! We originally planned to ride the Haihe River cruise on the same day, but later realized we couldn't do both if we planned to ride it after the lights were on. Because the lines for the Ferris wheel were unpredictable, we waited for half an hour and rode for another half an hour. The Tianjin Eye is quite a distance from the cruise terminal. Luckily, I was able to schedule another cruise the next day.
"Ride" or "see"? If you don't want to queue or find the ticket price high, simply taking photos with the train from a distance and along the Haihe River is equally enjoyable. It's especially beautiful at night when lit up.
Best Time: If you want to ride, try to ride on weekdays or during the day (the night view is beautiful, but the lines are the most formidable). Be sure to check weather and operating announcements in advance.
Manage Expectations: The train primarily offers a panoramic view of the city and a sense of ceremony. Don't expect excessive luxury or thrills inside the cabin.
