Zhengding Ancient City
卡卡哇兰草Rongguo Mansion is a famous attraction in Zhengding Ancient City. It is also the filming location of Dream of Red Mansions. It introduces the residence and stories of the characters in Rongguo Mansion. There will also be performances during certain periods. It is worth visiting. If you just take a walk around, half an hour is enough. If you want to understand it in depth, you need to ask a professional explanation.
Hebei Museum
Lluffy-66Positive comments
- Rich and precious collections: The museum has 240,000 cultural relics, including the Changxin Palace Lantern, the Jinlu Jade Clothes, and the Iron-footed Bronze Tripod of the King of Zhongshan in the Warring States Period, which are all well-known national treasures.
- Diverse and wonderful exhibitions: The permanent exhibitions cover many themes such as famous porcelain and kilns, Northern Dynasties murals, and Quyang stone carvings, which fully display the history and culture of Hebei. Temporary exhibitions such as "Prosperous Times Revising Classics-'Chinese Painting Series' Hebei Special Exhibition" are also very distinctive.
- Excellent application of technology: Constructing an immersive digital display experience space, using virtual reality and other technologies to make history "live", such as when showing the content of King Wuling of Zhao's Hu clothing and riding and shooting, it brings tourists an interesting immersive experience.
- Excellent explanation service: There are professional guides in the museum, and the explanations are detailed, rich in content, and lively and interesting. At the same time, it also provides a rental service for guides to facilitate tourists to visit and understand on their own.
- Complete supporting facilities: There is a rest area, drinking water of different temperatures, and a souvenir shop where small replicas of cultural relics can be purchased.
Negative comments
- Insufficient publicity and promotion: Compared with some well-known museums, the publicity is not strong enough, resulting in some tourists knowing less about it, and it is considered to be a relatively "low-key" and "easily overlooked" museum.
Longquan Ancient Town · Drama Illusion City
EExplore-15We had a good time at Longquan Ancient Town. It’s not very big and some parts seem to be under construction at the moment. It wasn’t very crowded which allowed for a nice stroll around. It has some really lovely views and interesting sights, and snack/food options. It has a very cozy vibe in the evening with all the lights and lanterns. There’s also an entertainment hall where you can warm up and play. Definitely fun for kids to walk around and explore.

Xibaipo Scenic Area
一一起向前进Xibaipo, the beginning of New China! The memorial hall and the old site are both good, but the transportation is not very convenient. There are only a few buses a day. If you take the 6:50 am bus from Shijiazhuang, you can only wait for the 3 pm bus, which does not match the resource allocation of 5A!

Manshanhua Valley Scenic Area
MM27***05It's a little far from the city, and it takes about 2 hours to drive there. The parking lot in the scenic area is large, and the general passenger flow is not a problem.
The ticket is 80 yuan, which is good value for money, but checking in at two gates is a bit cumbersome. The shuttle bus from the door to the terminal takes 10 minutes, and the walk takes 60 minutes. If you don’t want to be too tired, you might as well choose the latter, it’s 15 yuan a piece
Bit.
At the entrance of the scenic spot, there are various small scenery for taking photos, as well as children's entertainment facilities and water-friendly landscapes. Suitable for all kinds of photos, check-ins and baby walks. I passed by the middle section of the scenic area by car this time without taking a closer look. There should be rafting and other entertainment projects, plus there are plank roads for tourists to wander around. This time I mainly visited the deepest part of the scenic spot. The core landscape is dominated by two waterfalls (although the water flow is relatively small). There is a deep valley and secluded pool in the middle of the two waterfalls, with trails surrounding them. Walking in the mountains, the autumn mood is very strong, I personally recommend it.
Tuoliang Scenic Area
Yyjw2000Tuoliang Scenic Area is located at the junction of the two provinces of Nianjin in the northwest of Pingshan County, Hebei Province. It is adjacent to the Xibaipo of the national-level scenic spot in the south, and is connected to the Wuyuezhai National Forest Park in Lingshou County in the east. It is bordered by the largest waterfall group in the north in Muping County. The west faces Wutai Mountain, one of the four famous Buddhist mountains in China. It is named because the top of the mountain is like a hump.

The main peak is 2281 meters above sea level, which is the highest peak in Shijiazhuang area and one of the five peaks in Hebei Province. Camel beams are known for their cool climate, and the average temperature in summer is only 19℃. The summer camel beams are green and the water is soaked, as if they have just been fished out of the water. The mountains contain helium and the clouds are rainy. The clouds are deep and there are thousands of rocks, the water rises and the first smell of the turbulence, the three-fold waterfall, the white dragon waterfall, the human character waterfall, the five-finger waterfall and other nearly 100 waterfalls, dancing in the green and deep 20-mile long gorge, flying beads splashing jade, cold smoke and green; Dozens of clear springs such as ice springs, dragon springs, horse springs, like strings of pearls scattered in the gorge, crystal clear, inexhaustible drought, visitors drink. The sky grassland and sea of flowers of the camel Liangfeng are the magical masterpieces of nature. The mountaintop is more than 2,000 meters high above sea level, wide and flat, and the grass is quiet, hidden between the blue sky and the white clouds and the green waves of the pine forest.

Zhaozhou Bridge
木木雨青Today I finally came to the Zhaozhou Bridge mentioned in the primary school textbook. I thought that although it was free, it was relatively remote and there was nothing to see except the bridge. There were not many people. As a result, there were many people in Wuyang Wuyang. There are many special snacks on both sides of the road, such as Sydney juice, donkey meat dumplings, honey cakes and so on. In fact, only the bridge in this scenic spot is a point of view, and the rest are all artificially built. Strictly speaking, 70% of the bridge is also new. As a foreign tourist, the price is actually very low, but the locals are more convenient. Zhaozhou Bridge has a history of more than 1400 years and is worth seeing.
