Swan Lake Resort Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Mar)
Swan Lake in Guyuan | A great place to cool off and escape the summer heat
At the end of July, my family went on a trip to the Bashang area of Hebei, and we stumbled upon the peaceful and beautiful Swan Lake in Guyuan County, which made us linger and forget to return.
Swan Lake is located three kilometers north of the county seat of Guyuan, covering an area of 400 acres, with a water area of 150 acres, a natural freshwater lake surface, and rippling blue waves, with a good ecological environment. The place is full of green mountains, clear waters, lush grass, beautiful flowers, refreshing air, and clear winds. When the grass grows and the warblers fly, countless swans, cranes, wild ducks, and other waterfowl rest and pass by here, making it a paradise for birds, hence the name Swan Lake.
After entering the scenic area, we rented a four-person bicycle with a canopy and rode along the forest path towards the lake. The first thing that caught our eye was a sea of flowers, with two types of flowers, Celosia and Corn Poppy, blooming beautifully in the fresh air and bright sunshine. When we arrived at the lakeside, we saw a huge Guanyin statue on a small island extending into the lake, and on the shore dock, there was a large rock with the three big characters of 'Swan Lake' engraved on it, where some people were taking commemorative photos.
We cycled along the lake, with the breeze on our faces, which was very pleasant. Next to a small grove, we stopped again to take photos on the grass, with trees and grass on one side and lake water and mountains on the other, creating a picturesque scene that was intoxicating.
Due to time constraints, we had to end our trip and leave Swan Lake reluctantly. In my heart, I said: Goodbye, Swan Lake, I will come back again!
The world is big, and Kulun Naor is beautiful
The world is big, the scenery is beautiful, there are many opportunities, life is short, if you also like poetry and the distance, then come to the 'spring has a hundred flowers, autumn has the moon, summer has a cool breeze, winter has snow' Kulun Naor to see.
In the deep winter, the Kulun Naor Lake is frozen and quiet, dressed in silver. Recently, the 'Hebei·Guyuan County Kulun Naor 6th Ice and Snow Fishing and Hunting Cultural Tourism Season' grandly opened, and guests gathered in Kulun Naor to watch the winter fishing, enjoy the ice lake snow scene, and taste delicious lake fish.
On the frozen surface of Kulun Naor, there are activities such as collecting sacred fire, sacrificing the lake to wake up the net, ice fishing in winter, and auctioning the first fish. With the rhythm of the music, the fishermen dressed in Mongolian costumes sing and dance, thanking the gifts of nature and wishing life to be better.
The fisherman wearing a white stubble sheepskin jacket and a waistband held a grand ceremony of sacrificing the net, worshiping the lake god, and drinking the wine ceremony, loudly reciting the words of the lake and the net, praying for the lake god to bless the fishermen to be safe every year, as if bringing people back to that distant era.
With the booming drums, the winter fishing ceremony reached its climax. The large mechanical winch started to rotate, the lake water was blooming, and the kilometer-long giant net slowly tightened under the ice. Tourists from all over the place stared at the fish mouth, the fishermen shouted high and loud chants, and worked hard to pull the net out of the ice surface. The lively carp, silver carp, and crucian carp were rolling and jumping in the net, jumping on the ice surface, which was very spectacular.

Lightning Lake Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Mar)
On the second day of self-driving, I went to the farthest stop of the trip, Zhangjiakou Wuyuan Lightning River, and traveled 400 kilometers. Its not easy to get around the same day! Tents, picnic equipment, and photographic equipment stuffed the entire trunk, and I had to bring enough water and rations to my family.
Departed, the air after the heavy rain is cool and transparent, and the blue sky and white clouds all the way are beautiful.
noon, parking to find a piece of open space to support the tent to rest for lunch, turned over for a long time, a big collapse, we did not bring a pot? ? ? Not far from there is a family from the driving barbecue, and I frenzed my face to ask for help, borrowed a pot from others, happy, boiled boiled instant noodles, egg ham sausage added to open the meal! Delicious on earth!
Lightning Lake is the largest lake in the upper reaches of the Weihe River. It is named after the river in front of the lake for the Lightning River. Well, like almost all the attractions in the world, Lightning Lake also has a beautiful love story... Yes, you guessed it, and the human lad and the heavenly fairy are better~ haha. The area of the Lightning Lake is much larger than the Princess Lake I have been to before, but it is smaller than the Lake Dalino, the lake is not clear, but from afar, a lake and mountains, in the soft light at dusk, people are also very Happy and happy.
The lakeside usually has a variety of rides, carousels, small bungee jumps and pirate ships... It seems that people on the Fengning Dam like to open all kinds of playgrounds, and the Khan Palace is like this. The lightning lake is like this, even the horse farm is like this...
Laozhanggou Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Mar)
Im going to take the self-driving tour on the go, a tough hardcore challenge. Under the leadership of many old drivers, we set up a small team to challenge the most famous off-road holy land in North China.
The route of our trip is very simple. From Beijing, the first stop is the famous post-town stone, the second stop is Laozhanggou, then sail to Fengning prairie and finally enter Fengning County. Rest and return to Beijing for two days and one night.
said that it is self-driving travel, but it is not so simple. We are experiencing road conditions that ordinary vehicles and urban SUVs cannot drive, and fully armed off-road vehicles can pass. Equipment can not be rushed to challenge.
The grassland of this season is still lacking in green, but the gradually melting rivers and the flocks of cattle and sheep are foretelling the vitality of spring.
Love the grassland, fall in love with the horse, and the Fengning Bashang grassland with the first grassland in the north of Beijing can't be missed. If there is no strong off-road vehicle, you can go straight to the grassland through the road. If you have a hard-core off-road that is armed to your teeth, you may wish to meet a friend and challenge the Hanpo with the old driver.
