Chongming 2 days and 1 night in Xuan Yu Lan to unlock a relaxing and happy weekend time
I come to Chongming Island twice every year. It is more than an hour's drive from downtown Shanghai, but it is like a paradise favored by time. I took my elderly and children to Chongming to enjoy a slow-paced life for two days on the weekend. Please keep this guide to food, entertainment, accommodation and transportation!
🌲【Dongping National Forest Park】
Ticket price is 50r. As soon as I entered the park, I was amazed by the 3.55 square kilometers of forest. I rented a four-seater electric car (160r/hour) and stopped to take pictures along the way. It was easy for both the elderly and children.
✔️Our tour route:
1️⃣J-6 fighter jet✈️: Our baby exclaimed "Wow" when he saw it, it's so cool! It is a dream destination for boys
2️⃣ Fairyland: A big castle to satisfy children's fairytale fantasy~
3️⃣ Wilderness Paradise: A happy planet for kids, with slides, suspension bridges, swings, and climbing frames
4️⃣ Deer Garden🦌: Spend 10r to buy a bag of deer senbei and experience the joy of feeding sika deer
5️⃣ Peacock Garden🦚: The place with the most peacocks in Shanghai, we were lucky to see 9 peacocks spreading their tails at the same time!
🏡【Xuan Yu Lan】
In the evening, we spent a relaxing weekend in Xuan Yu Lan's lake view loft wooden house "Huai Xu"🍃. This is a two-story house with a simple Nordic style and two 1.8-meter beds, which is suitable for our family of four. Dad is fishing on the terrace, the baby is watching cartoons, and mom and grandma are sitting on the sofa. The family is having a great time.
The facilities and supplies in the room are very high-quality, including smart speakers, a large TV with membership service, a smart toilet, a Lifen hair dryer, and a comfortable mattress. The details are very well done. It is also very friendly to those with children and pets~
There is a pond, tent and swing in the yard. The child lit a fairy wand here at night and was so happy. Then take a steaming hot bath in the big round bathtub and stay comfortable all night long.
No one leaves here hungry! The housekeeper came to feed us afternoon tea and goodnight snacks from time to time. 😋The hearty breakfast was all Chongming ecological food grown at home. The kids were a little reluctant to leave when we left.
🥘【Uncle Gu’s Farmhouse】
This is a restaurant near the Forest Park. The boiled shrimp 🦐 retains the freshness of the shrimp, the boiled chicken is tender and delicious with the sauce, the whitebait in the fried whitebait eggs are all big, the whitewater fish has firm meat and fewer fish bones, 👶🏻 and babies can eat it without worry! The average cost per person was over 70 and we were very satisfied with the meal.
I suggest you come in March when the spring is bright and beautiful, Chongming Island will be even more beautiful at that time.
