Southern moms are overjoyed! No need to fly to Inner Mongolia to take the kids to see the grasslands!

Southern moms are overjoyed! No need to fly to Inner Mongolia to take the kids to see the grasslands! A firsthand family road trip to Yangtian Lake 🌿 Who understands! After staying in Shenzhen for a long time, you always want to see something different. We drove 3 hours with the kids to Chenzhou’s Yangtian Lake, finally fulfilling the “grassland dream” for southern kids! Honestly, this grassland is perfect for families — not too big, half a day to stroll around is just right, no need to rush and tire out the kids. The kids’ happiness is maxed out! You can squat by the fence to feed the soft fufu deer (watch out for licking hands~), chase the round fluffy sheep, and there’s grass sledding and a little train to play on! The little train is 20 yuan per person, key point: kids over 80cm need a separate ticket, so if you have very young babies, plan ahead~ When the weather is good, it’s super photogenic! Blue sky with grassland, any photo you take of the kids looks like a fairy tale scene 🌈 But! You absolutely must do sun protection! The UV rays at over 1000 meters altitude are fierce, bring sun-protective clothing, sunscreen, and a sun hat, or you’ll come home two shades darker after a day of play! Let’s talk about transportation: driving from Shenzhen, once you get off the highway, you hit mountain roads. The “eighteen bends of mountain roads” is no exaggeration! Sharp and frequent turns, if you’re not skilled at driving, better let an experienced driver take the wheel. I was gripping the handle the whole time, too scared to let go 😂 Finally, to be honest: the 108 yuan per person ticket is a bit pricey, not very cost-effective. If you want southern kids to experience the grassland atmosphere for the first time, this place is enough; but if you want a more vast natural landscape and better value, wait until the kids are older and head to the Inner Mongolian grasslands~ ✨ Family travel tips: 1. Dress the kids in lightweight sneakers, there’s a lot of walking on the grassland, easy for running and jumping 2. Bring some snacks so the kids can quickly recharge when tired 3. When driving on mountain roads, control your speed and watch your mirrors carefully, safety first Chenzhou · Yunshili · Soong · CinemaBathtub Design Homestay (Voluntary Yao Village Branch)
