Winter in the suburbs of Beijing | Blue ice of Miyun Icefall - Black Dragon Pool

Winter in the suburbs of Beijing | Blue ice of Miyun Icefall | Black Dragon Pond and Taoyuan Fairy Valley In addition to skiing and hot springs in Beijing's winter, you can also consider icefalls and blue ice. This time I went to the "Black Dragon Pond" and "Taoyuan Valley", which are known as the "Little Iceland" and "Little Lake Baikal". They are very close to each other. I went there one in the morning, had a farm meal at noon, and went there again in the afternoon, which was just enough time for one day. 🌸Attractions, Miyun Black Dragon Pond, Taoyuan Valley 🌸Tickets: Black Dragon Pool 65, Taoyuan Valley 45 🌸Opening hours: until 5pm 🌸Location, navigate to the entrance of Heilongtan 🤩We went to Heilongtan in the morning. There were a lot of people there. There were sisters wearing Hanfu taking photos, which created a great atmosphere. There are many icefalls where you can take close-up photos. There is blue ice as well, but today the weather was not right so we couldn't go down onto the blue ice. 🤩At noon, we had a farmhouse meal, fish stewed in an iron pot and some farm dishes to replenish our energy. 🤩We went to Taoyuan Valley in the afternoon. It is quite big and we didn’t finish the walk. The blue ice here is nice. You can go down to the ice surface, which is very large. There are some white bubbles in it that are very layered, and it is very special to take pictures sitting on the blue ice. Highly recommended! The suburbs are colder than the city, so be sure to wear more clothes!
