In fact, the Metasequoia forest is no longer in its best viewing period. The main reason is that some of the red leaves 🍂 have fallen Why is it said that it is late but it is still late? The main reason is that the Metasequoia forest in Dongtai Huanghai Forest Park is large enough and has enough fallen leaves. Although some red leaves have fallen, the scenery is still pleasing to the eye. Whether it is for taking photos 📷, strolling 🚶‍➡️, ​​or taking your kids out, it is actually a good choice. Let's talk about the forest park itself: ✅The main feature is a large Metasequoia forest, which is planted horizontally and vertically, with roads, houses, and children's playgrounds interspersed in between. Needless to say, the colors are mainly red in this season and green in summer. ✅There are small trains, cute insect island (children's playground), wooden houses in the forest and plank roads in the forest, so it is relatively easy to take your baby out for a walk ✅There is the Forest Eye, which is a high tower (with an elevator). After climbing up, you can overlook the vast forest. There is also a sky mirror on the tower, which is specially designed for taking photos📷 Finally, let’s talk about taking photos and travel tips: 1️⃣You can walk into the woods, the fallen leaves on the ground are more abundant and redder, more suitable for taking pictures📷 2️⃣Don’t miss the aerial plank road in the forest.

Follow me and let’s explore new destinations together!

Be sure to come to this fairytale forest in December Last year, many friends around me strongly recommended Huanghai Forest Park to me, saying that the redwood forest there is absolutely beautiful, so this year I paid attention to the weather early and arranged a two-day trip. To be honest, I regret coming too late. The forests are colorful, gorgeous, brilliant, and endless... These words are very appropriate to describe this niche tourist destination.

Ticket price: 50 yuan/person Conventional route: Metasequoia Corridor - Forest Train - Skywalk - Misty Forest - Forest Eye - Wood Forest - Wooden House Community The scenic area is very large, the whole journey is about 8 kilometers, and it takes 2-3 hours to hike. There are multi-person bicycles and electric vehicles for rent. Popular check-in spots: The forest train runs every half an hour. Not only children, but even adults like to sit on it and travel through the Metasequoia forest that looks like an oil painting.

There is a shuttle bus and you can also stay in the cabins in the scenic area. I will try it next time. This time I arranged a two-day tour. On the first day, I went directly to the nearby Wild Deer Pond. I didn’t spend a penny on the ticket and watched the elks for the whole afternoon (see Figure 18). It was so exciting. What also left a deep impression on me during this trip was the food. I tried steamed eggs with shrimp, raw pickled white shrimp, fish soup noodles, and shredded radish and razor clam soup. The prices were ridiculously cheap. I will write a special guide to watching deer later. It is especially suitable for bringing children to play.
