A must-visit for family trips! The stunning experience of Panjin Red Beach you’ll miss for a whole year if you skip it

Finally took the kids to check in at the long-awaited Panjin Red Beach! Truly breathtaking! This red coastline, “dyed” by the Suaeda salsa plants, is a unique natural wonder in the world. The kids stared at it for a long time, reluctant to look away. Standing on the wooden boardwalk and looking into the distance, the entire tidal flat looks like a giant red carpet stretching from your feet all the way to where the sea meets the sky. When the sea breeze blows, even the air carries a romantic vibe. Any family photo here looks great! But be aware, this scenery is only visible for a few months each year. If you miss it, you’ll have to wait a whole year again. Family travelers, don’t miss out! 📷 Family must-visit spots (all perfect for kids): ✔️ Tide coming and going: A great place for beachcombing! At low tide, bring the kids to walk on the shallow beach, watch the Suaeda salsa sway gently with the waves, and pick up small shells together. Kids can play here for hours without getting bored. At high tide, the red seaweed meets the blue ocean, creating healing scenes of “sea embracing the red beach” in photos. Taking a family photo set here is very meaningful~ ✔️ Red Beach Post Office: Full of cute elements! Flower swings, crab claw decorations, vintage mailboxes, big crab displays—each one captures kids’ interests. Kids jump around here full of energy, and photos look vibrant against the natural scenery. Definitely a must-visit! ✔️ Rice Park: Packed with surprises! Balloon houses, popular sky ladders, colorful windmills spinning magically, plus creative rice paddy paintings. Bring the kids to find patterns in the rice fields. The lush green paired with cute scenes feels like stepping into a fairy tale world. Kids have a blast here~ ✔️ Ancient Fish and Goose Tribe: The atmosphere is instantly immersive! Totoro figurines, a lonely boat, a rainbow bridge, and tall reeds create the vibe of an ancient tribe. Standing here with kids feels like stepping into a storybook, and photos come out very atmospheric~ ✔️ Red Beach Mirror: Amazing for photos! Three different stair designs, whether full-body or close-up shots, all look fantastic. This area has a larger red beach with richer colors. Kids standing on the stairs make for stunning shots, and they’ll love it too~ 🎫 Ticket info (super cost-effective for family trips): Self-driving combo ticket is 88 RMB, really worth it! The ticket allows you to drive into the park and access all attractions with one pass. No need to carry luggage around with kids, very convenient! Currently, there are no sightseeing buses in the park. If you don’t have a car, you can take a taxi in. Negotiate the fare with the driver privately, and be sure to tell the driver which spots you want to visit so you don’t miss places your kids are interested in. 🚌 Transportation guide (super smooth for family travel): From Panjin Station, take bus T2 or T1 to Baili Hotel stop, then transfer to Liao 1 bus, and get off at Red Beach stop.
