Beijing Metro Line 3 Finally Opens After Half a Century
On December 15, 2024, Beijing Metro Line 3 finally opened after 60 years of waiting 🎉
I had seen the reserved mysterious platform at Dongsi Shitiao 🚉
The metro line was first proposed in the 1970s
After 60 years, it finally returned to the Beijing metro network family~
Beijing Metro Line 3, like Lines 1 and 2, is one of the earliest planned lines in Beijing
In 1956, five Soviet experts came to Beijing and guided the drawing of the earliest Beijing metro plan
When Dongsi Shitiao Station on Line 2 was built in 1971, the platform and concourse of Line 3 were reserved under the concourse
Completed in 1984, it was rated as one of the top ten buildings in Beijing in the 1980s, and the only underground building among them
I remember last time I went to Chengde, I had to take a taxi to Chaoyang Station 🚕
Now the metro is seamlessly connected to 🚄 Chaoyang Railway Station, which is very convenient 🎉
If you like taking photos, you must visit Chaoyang Station
The newly opened west square and concourse of Beijing Chaoyang Station are a bit like Daxing Airport ✈️
The Chaoyang Comprehensive Hub Transfer Station is composed of a single-layer steel box girder reticulated shell structure, which is very spectacular 😮
There are also signs of meeting points on the pillars of Chaoyang Station on Line 3
It's so convenient to meet up with friends, such a thoughtful design ♥️

🌳The entire amusement park has an 80% forest coverage rate, making it cool in the summer and a great place to escape the heat. There is a 🚂sightseeing train in the park, so you can easily reach all the play points without walking.
Here is my personal play route for reference⬇️

🧊Jungle Rafting
A must-play jungle rafting in summer! Anyone over 1 meter tall can play. The starting point of the rafting, Mirror Lake, is so beautiful! The entire rafting process is through the forest, completely shaded.
💦Glass Slide
Another water project besides jungle rafting, a high-altitude slide that won't get you wet! Spiral down the mountain while enjoying the scenery on both sides of the forest.
☕️Jungle Coffee
A wooden house coffee hidden by the mountain stream, every step is like traveling to Southeast Asia. After rafting, a cup of stream coffee is really comfortable!
🦌Forest Deer Encounter
No need to go to Nara! You can feed the deer here! Over 100 sika deer interact with you up close, they are very gentle and won't butt you.
📷Photogenic Spots

⛺️For a weekend two-day tour, you can stay in the tea field tents in the scenic area, with independent wooden house designs and a very nice environment.
Shanghai | This place is absolutely beautiful this week.
Last year, I visited Huakai Haishang Ecological Park for the first time, and I couldn't forget the beautiful scenery there. This year, I decided to go again. From early November, the kochia began to change color, with red, orange, yellow, and green interwoven together, looking both lovely and unique. By mid-November, although most of them had turned red, they were still colorful. The whole garden was surrounded by warm tones, like a fairy tale world.
There are many viewing platforms and winding paths in the park. You can overlook the whole garden from a high place or get close to the charming kochia. In addition, pink muhly grass and other colorful flowers are scattered among them, which are very suitable for taking photos.
Huakai Haishang Ecological Park is located in Xiujing Village, Zhujing Town, Jinshan District, and is open from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm every day. The ticket price is CNY 30, which can be purchased online in advance or on-site. In terms of transportation, it is recommended to take the high-speed train from Shanghai Hongqiao Station to Jinshan North Station, which takes only 18 minutes and costs about CNY 22. After leaving the station, it is less than 3 kilometers from the destination, and it costs about CNY 20 to take a taxi.

I'm obsessed with this hot spring! All-you-can-eat blueberries and strawberries? Amazing!
Family, I found an amazing hot spring – V Hot Spring – and the experience was top-notch. Everyone needs to know about this place!
✨ As soon as I walked in, I was captivated by the gallery-level decor. The Mediterranean-style staircase made me feel like I'd been transported to a romantic seaside town. There's also an incredible sunset viewing point and terrace. At sunset, the sky turns orange-red, and any photo you take with your friends looks like a movie still.

Lili Ancient Town is everything I imagined an ancient town to be.
After seeing so many commercialized ancient towns, I realized how rare Lili is. There are no cookie-cutter photo spots or grilled squid stalls here. Instead, you'll find small bridges, flowing water, and traditional houses with flying eaves. You'll see women washing clothes by the river, old men sunbathing, and shop owners busy preparing lunch.
Lili's history dates back 2,500 years. As the doors and windows creak open, I cross more than 20 stone bridges and 150 alleys. The old dreams sheltered by the misty corridors fill me with energy as I immerse myself in the ancient town's rustic charm.
📍 Name: Lili Ancient Town, Wujiang District, Suzhou
💰 Admission: Free (some attractions charge a fee)

🎞️ Lili Ancient Town was a filming location for the TV series "Good League Member".
📸 If you want to take photos in traditional Chinese clothing or a qipao, you'll need to bring your own clothes and makeup, as there are no costume shops in the ancient town.
🗺️ The ancient town is small, but the shops are full of surprises. Behind the small storefronts, you'll find intangible cultural heritage crafts, private museums, and time-honored restaurants. Take your time to explore.

Nhâm cafe
#vietnamtrip
The restaurant is quite famous and has a stable number of customers. I have been there since the restaurant first opened, but I just posted this post now 🥹 and my previous experience was better than the present.
The space is extremely spacious, with two floors and a large garden, the ceiling is high so it always feels airy and not stuffy, it is invested quite carefully so you can take pictures from almost any corner, the yellow lights are soft, the space is quiet so it feels quite relaxing.
The menu is a minus point because it only has simple drinks with normal taste, not very special, you should review this part, the price is also quite high compared to the general level here, but in return, the investment in the look is very careful, focusing on the decor so it feels worth it, in addition to drinks, there are also cakes, prices from about 45 to 75k.
The restaurant is now open 24/7 so you can come anytime, the restaurant is spacious, has many tables and is almost always crowded and the dishes are served quite slowly. Parking in front of the restaurant.
Loc: 91/1 Hoa Hung, Ward 12, District 10, Ho Chi Minh, Vietnam

The photos are quite good, suitable for portraits.
"Olive Garden" is about 2 km away from here.
There are also olive trees here, and the lawn is green.
There are more than 10 Maitreya kapok trees.
The trunk looks like a vase, which is really cute.
Each tree is supported by several steel pipes.
When taking photos, try to avoid overlapping people and steel pipes.
It is more convenient to remove them in post-processing to make the photos look better.

Shanghai Store Exploration | The Most Beautiful Bookstore, Xujiahui Academy.
| The Most Beautiful Bookstore, Xujiahui Academy. 📚📚📚 Xujiahui Academy, the most beautiful bookstore in Shanghai. On the first floor, the coffee bar is on the left side of the academy, and the children's reading area is on the right side. There are a wide variety of books, including many children's picture books.
In addition to the indoor reading area, the second floor also has an outdoor reading balcony ☀️, which is a great place to take photos 📸. You can take a panoramic view of the entire atrium through the glass 🪞, which is grand and open.
The third floor is a relatively quiet reading space 📖, which is more suitable for immersive reading.
💌 Store Name: Xujiahui Academy
⏰ Hours: Tuesday to Sunday 9:00–21:00 (last entry at 20:30), the first floor children's area and the third floor are open from 9:00–17:00.
📍 Address: No. 158 Caoxi North Road
🚇 Transportation: Exit 3 of Xujiahui Subway Station (Line 1/Line 9/Line 11)
💰 Admission: Free (no reservation required)
🏢 [Environment]:
📕📗📘📙 Xujiahui Academy is a comprehensive library in the era of all-media. It was designed by David Chipperfield, a famous British architect and designer of the West Bund Museum, and is very beautiful.
🤩🤩🤩 As soon as you enter the gate, you can see the "Gate of Light", a crystal-clear art installation inspired by the famous historical site near the academy, the Tushanwan Chinese Archway. In front of it is the "Shanghai Long Table" over 20 meters long.
☕ [Nearby Attractions]:
The outdoor reading area on the second floor offers a distant view of the Catholic Church ⛪️. The architecture of Xujiahui Catholic Church is also very beautiful, and it is a great place to take photos. Xujiahui Park is just a few hundred meters away, 🥳 so you can also visit it if you have time!
The incredibly popular Yayoi Kusama exhibition at the NGV is a must-see in Melbourne.
I happened to be back in Melbourne during Yayoi Kusama's polka dot exhibition, and I definitely couldn't miss it. Many exhibits are being shown in Australia for the first time, and the popularity is evident in the fact that tickets need to be purchased several days in advance.
🎫 How to book:
This exhibition is extremely popular, so be sure to purchase tickets in advance on the NGV's official website to avoid sell-outs.
If you prefer a less crowded viewing experience, it's recommended to book the earliest time slot, around 9:00 am, when there are the fewest people.
💰 AUD 38
❤️ Must-see photo spots:
Most of the amazing photo opportunities are in Part 2.
1️⃣ World premiere! The stunning new work - the kaleidoscopic Infinity Mirrored Room. It's like stepping into a parallel universe!
2️⃣ Australian premiere! The 5-meter-tall sculpture "Dancing Pumpkin" is super cute and incredibly photogenic.
3️⃣ Classic polka dot paintings + immersive mirror rooms + psychedelic sculptures - every room is a great photo op.
4️⃣ Pumpkin Mirror Room: There's a queue, and each person only has about 20 seconds to look around. You won't have time to use a camera here, so it's recommended to use your phone to take pictures through the small opening.
📌 Exhibition tips:
1️⃣ Attire: It's recommended to wear form-fitting clothing in solid colors (black, white, beige, or other low-saturation colors). The exhibition is full of highly saturated colors and patterns, which might be overwhelming for those with trypophobia.
2️⃣ Viewing order: You can scan your ticket and enter up to half an hour before your entry time. You must visit Part 1 before Part 2. If you see Part 2 first, you won't be able to go back to Part 1, as tickets are scanned separately for each part.
3️⃣ Bring a friend who's good at taking photos, and be patient. The popular spots require quick shots and waiting.
4️⃣ There are also many photo opportunities in the public areas on the first floor. You can take photos for free with a pumpkin sculpture, a field of silver balls, and the polka dot balloons hanging from the ceiling in the rest area.
5️⃣ The exhibition merchandise is also great. I ended up buying a polka dot backpack and a makeup bag.
📍 National Gallery of Victoria
