If you want to see ice sculptures, you don't have to go to Harbin! Come here!

Beijing's only place to see ice lanterns, as a traditional winter project, is very popular, especially this year. Tickets can be bought online, there are live rooms selling for 108, others are 120, half price for children and the elderly, because I want paper tickets, I chose to buy tickets at the window on site, otherwise it is recommended to buy online, no need to queue up to scan the code directly. No need to make an appointment, no limit. During the festival, traffic control was in place before four o'clock, and cars could only be parked at the temporary parking lot at the intersection. When there are many people, there is no place. There are villagers in the small woods calling for parking. Don't hesitate to stop during peak hours. Depending on the time, it's 20-30 unlimited time, acceptable. There are about 1500 meters to the ticket office, and more than one kilometer from the ticket office to the entrance of the real lanterns and ice lanterns. It's not far to walk, or you can choose the shuttle bus, 10 yuan per person one way, also bought at the ticket office. The lanterns on the square are better after dark, and the ice lanterns don't matter. Anyway, they are the same indoors at any time. I haven't been here for many years, basically the same, some zodiac themes, Eight Immortals, Crystal Palace, various shapes of ice sculptures... This year has added Winter Olympics elements, especially many Antarctic scientific research shapes, scientific research ships, Jiaolong, polar huts, etc., the end is the ice waterfall. It's not big, an hour is enough. You can play with snow rings and ride ice cars on the outside ice surface. It is recommended to go in the afternoon, go indoors to see the ice lanterns, come out and it's dark to see the lanterns, and then you can return when the flow of people comes up, you can also avoid the coldest time. It's dark to see the lanterns, and then you can return when the flow of people comes up, you can also avoid the coldest time. Yanqing is at least 5-10 degrees lower than the city, be sure to dress warmly, it's okay during the day, it's really too cold outside at night, the mask is taken off and frozen directly Scarves, hats, gloves are indispensable, it's very useful to stick two warm babies in the shoes, after all, it's much better if the feet are warm There is a post office on the way to the exit, where you can drink coffee and get eight free stamps, including Antarctic scientific research and rabbit zodiac stamps. I didn't bring my own account, I bought it at the counter, 30 for two is not expensive, and it can be used next time

#triplocal It was a short trip to mountains in Beijing suburbs. one day is more than enough to visit that place. Road takes at around 3 hours (during National holidays). Beautiful nature, nice views! Entrance ticket is 40 rmb. There are many variants of different activities there, like boat trip (100 rmb), cable cars (50 rmb round trip), sliding (30 rmb) etc. Worth to visit. #triplocal
