Come to the surrounding area of Guangdong for a parent-child trip, I've found a great place!

During our weekend parent-child time, we usually ask the children for their opinions Where do they want to go? What do they want to do? But this weekend, Dad👨 decided on his own to take us to a beautiful place with mountains and water to play. He said his colleague had been there and it was not bad to visit! He mentioned that it is a Konjac town, which is a new rural area under construction! So taking advantage of the weekend, our family of four👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 set off! 📍: Qingyuan*Fogang (adjacent to Guangzhou) 🏨We booked the Yaowang Valley Ecological Health Resort Center! The park is very big, built against the mountains, and the air is especially good! When we arrived, it was just after the rain had cleared! The air was fresh~ The rooms come with a private soaking pool! The siblings🉑 were excited🥰! For them, playing in the water is a very happy thing, and playing in the water at the place we stay makes the happiness🎉 double. - 🥬Downstairs there is a 🀄️ medical culture exhibition hall! It displays hundreds of types of Chinese herbs, and although we don't recognize most of them, we all find it amazing. My son👦 said as he looked around, 'Mom, I seem to have seen some of these things before, and they can also cure diseases...' I want to say, child, the culture of 🀄️ medicine has a history of thousands of years and it's not for nothing👍 - 🍄The park has an ecological farm, 2 lotus ponds, and my teammate said while walking, 'The lotus roots here must be very good🤣...' There is also a large planting base! Taking the children for a walk and letting them get close to the process of planting crops is also a nice experience. - In addition, there is the Qiancao Hall restaurant🍴, a multi-functional conference hall, a mountain-side swimming pool... people of all ages can relax here😌 - Not far from the resort, there is a broken bridge flower embankment, next to a long greenway! This place is super photogenic📷! The rustic rural scenery is very attractive to the two kids! They played here and didn't want to leave, even wanting to take stones home to play with😂Indeed, the happiness🎉 of children is just that simple!

I saw the true red leaves

After a long six to seven hours of traffic jam last Saturday, I finally arrived at Yaowang Valley. Perhaps because the traffic jam was too long, I felt like I hadn't climbed at all when I reached the top of the mountain. The leader suggested that we could go to the bottom of the valley to 'pull out drawers', and after a wild descent, I realized it was getting dark and hurried back up the same way. Despite that, I still felt like I hadn't climbed at all. But the red leaves all over the mountains were truly breathtaking. For the first time, I experienced the richest autumn colors of Beijing!! The exhaustion from the traffic jam and the discomfort in my body were healed, but next time, let's not get stuck in traffic, hahaha
