Magnificent landscapes reflect glory, ancient charm awaits at Dajingmen

Zhangjiakou's cultural tourism experience is a soul-stirring feast that left me deeply enchanted and unforgettable. Wandering through Zhangjiakou's mountains and waters, I felt like stepping into breathtaking scroll paintings. Towering mountain ranges undulate continuously, with mist swirling between peaks like a dreamscape - each ridge telling tales of time's passage and nature's divine craftsmanship. Crystal-clear mountain streams babble endlessly; scooping a handful of spring water brings instant refreshment that washes away worldly fatigue and noise. 🌟 Basic Info 📍 Location: Zhangbei County, Zhangjiakou City, Hebei Province. Total length 137.7km (East+West routes) 🎫 Ticket: Free! Open year-round, ready when you are! 🚗 Recommended: Self-drive! Dubbed "China's Route 66", the road offers picturesque views of grasslands, windmills, terraces and grazing livestock 📸 Perfect photo spots for lasting memories Every attraction in Zhangjiakou is Instagram-worthy. Experience celebrity Xiao Zhan's favorite ski slopes at Genting Snow Park, or sing along with thousands at grassland music festivals. Capture beautiful moments everywhere. 🏨 Accommodation: Opt for downtown hotels or nearby B&Bs for convenience.
