National Day Outing Recommendation: Arcadia Hot Springs Hotel
Where are you going for the National Day holiday?
I didn't plan to go out originally because I thought there would be a lot of people during the National Day holiday, the roads would be congested, and without prior planning, there would definitely be nowhere to go.
Staying at home was really boring, so I browsed various apps and found that this hotel in Qihe still had rooms available for booking, and to my surprise, there was even a children's theme, so I booked it immediately, hehe.
Qihe is about an hour's drive from Jinan city center, which is very close. We took the grandparents and the child, four adults and one child, and booked two rooms. One is a scenic twin room for dad and grandpa, and the other is the much-anticipated~ Kumamon bear themed loft where grandma and I stayed with the child~
It was a wonderful surprise, the Kumamon bear loft is really great~
The small details are also well done, the little toothbrush and toothpaste are also Kumamon bear themed, and there are children's bathrobes and slippers which are super cute. The child could soak in the hotel all day, haha.
The loft is more suitable for two adults and two children because there are big beds both upstairs and downstairs. Grandma and I stayed with the child on the downstairs bed, and the upstairs was left unused.
The hotel's children's facilities are very complete, with an indoor playground, and outdoors there are many slides, swimming pools, and sandpits, definitely a paradise for kids, haha.
The hot springs are also nice, all relatively secluded private baths. We didn't take the child to soak because we thought the weather was quite cool and were afraid the child would catch a cold, so the child just played around the hotel for two days and wasn't bored at all.
The outdoors is also very suitable for moms to take photos, haha, it has a Bali vibe, and you can take good pictures just about anywhere.

🏨Qihe Arcadia Hot Spring Golf International Hotel
📍Intersection of National Highway 308 and Jinan North Ring Expressway in the Economic and Technological Development Zone
💰Average cost per person 110
❇️Recommendation❇️
When going out to play, the most important thing is to eat well, sleep well, and have fun~ This treasure hotel, equipped with two super large swimming pools🏊🏻♀️, is simply a water park where you don't want to leave once you enter!
The hotel also has a small children's playground, indoor hot springs, and a golf course. In short, you can have a great time without leaving the hotel.
💟Room Facilities💟
The biggest highlight is its rooms, basically starting from 40㎡, and the 80㎡ suite with a living room is less than 600 yuan. There is also a blackboard wall in the room for children to doodle and create.
The hotel is equipped with a buffet🍛, although the variety is not very large, but foods like salmon and crayfish are still very good~
✴️tips✴️
1⃣️It is an 18-minute drive from O'Le Castle, with many small roads
2⃣️Free parking, plenty of parking spaces
Quancheng Oulebao Animal Kingdom Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Jun)
The Texas Zoo is awesome
The Texas | Find the joy of nature at the O'Leary Kingdom Zoo Recommended Index
Departing from Qingdao to O'Leary Castle, the whole journey is 380 kilometers, and it takes 4 hours by car. Since we went the week before the National Day holiday, there were very few cars on the road, and not many people in the zoo, so the experience was very good. Therefore, I suggest that you must travel off-peak. Tour route:
You come in from the east gate and park your car in the parking lot, then you need to rent an electric car, remember you must rent an electric car, otherwise you will be exhausted, it's too big here. We rented a golf cart for 300 yuan, which was very convenient, and there were also 500 and 700 yuan ones, but I don't think it's necessary.
We entered at about 9:30 am and played until 3:30 pm, and basically went to all the places once. Because we had to head back, we didn't stay too late. We stayed at a nearby hotel the day before and came to play the next day. The hotel we stayed at was about 7 kilometers away, and it was very convenient to drive, with hardly any cars on the road.
You can take the aerial cable car included in the ticket first, the distance is very long, it takes 70 minutes to complete a round trip, my goodness, that's too long. You will pass over the beast area in the air, right above lions, tigers, and bears, if you fall down, it wouldn't be enough to eat . The animals in this zoo are really different from other zoos, full of vitality, monkeys jumping up and down, elephants, lions, giraffes, etc., are also very spirited.
There are also places to eat in the scenic area, two meals cost about 80 yuan, which is also acceptable. There are also a few performances in the scenic area, you can check the time and place, and they are all included in the ticket.
Finally, after visiting, there is a fossil museum. I thought there was nothing to see, but when I went in, , it's a very large museum, with two floors, just this one museum takes an hour to see everything. Reasons for recommendation:
It's very suitable for bringing children to play, it's interesting, and the place is big enough, definitely enough to play for a day. Remember to rent an electric car. For hotels, I recommend the Peacock King Blue Sea Hot Spring Resort, which is very good. In terms of cost, a family of three, including car rental and meals, costs about 1000 yuan

So it's very important to make children fall in love with travel~
🎯Target: Yellow River International Ecotourism Resort
🚄Transportation:
Beijing-Jinan West (High-speed rail 1:40) Jinan West Station
Plan A: Rent a car (about 80 yuan/day) 20 kilometers to reach.
Plan B: Taxi from Jinan West Station to the amusement park about 50 yuan
💡Travel guide:
⏰This time schedule is for your reference:

7:30-9:40 Beijing Jinan West
10:00-11:00 Jinan West pick up car - Animal Kingdom
11:00-15:30 Animal Kingdom play
15:30-16:00 Animal Kingdom - Hotel
16:00-17:30 Hotel hot spring bath with children rest

Sunday:
8:00-9:00 Hotel breakfast
9:30-10:00 Hotel - Dream World Amusement Park
10:00-15:00 Amusement park play
15:30-16:00 Return to Jinan West Station car rental shop
17:30-19:40 Jinan West - Beijing home
(⚠️Reminder: The high-speed rail from Jinan West to Beijing is about 30 minutes, but on weekends, you must buy return tickets in advance. If you wait to buy them temporarily, you may not have tickets. We were on the train to make up for the no-seat ticket when we came back.)
🦁Ole Castle Animal Kingdom: The difference here from most zoos is the ecological breeding environment of animal species. The play channel is very close to the animals, allowing children to observe large predators that can only be observed from a distance. And some big cats and baboons will interact with the children~ This can be said to be Yan Yan's favorite zoo.
✨The baby white lion is in the sloth coffee shop opposite the cable car station, and the staff will hold it out to interact with tourists from 9-11 am every day.
🎢Dream World Amusement Park: A large amusement park similar to Happy Valley, with a ticket system, unlimited play after entering, the Blue Fire roller coaster is very worth experiencing. There are also real NPC's 👻 house BLACK DEATH Maunted House (do not enter if you are timid).

Winter Hot Springs|Near Jinan|Enjoy the hot spring hotel of Southeast Asian Strontium Springs
The weather is getting colder and colder, the first dynamic snow has fallen, it's a good season to soak in hot springs, today I have to recommend the treasure hotel I always go to - Qihe Peacock King Blue Sea Imperial Huahua Hot Spring Hotel, we have brought relatives and friends here many times since the hotel opened, the hotel's service is really great, the care for children is meticulous, the hotel's facilities and the variety of catering and the cost-effectiveness of charges are very high. The details of our consumption this time can be referred to by everyone:
1. Hotel accommodation Q: Consumption 450 yuan (including double breakfast), children from 1.1 meters to 1.4 meters breakfast charge 28 yuan.
2. Hot spring weekend ticket: Children 0 yuan (children under 1.4 meters free before November 30), adults 98 yuan*2, a total of 196 yuan. Be sure to buy discount tickets for hotel guests, there is no limit to the number of entries and exits.
3. Dinner: Hotel guests 108 yuan. Adults and children spent a total of 274 yuan. There is also a separate set meal: salmon, steak, abalone. The three of us were full, and the three of us dads drank a lot of Snow Zhang beer. This price is a great value.
4. Other consumption: There is an entertainment venue on the second floor, as well as snacks and drinks, except for billiards for 25 yuan per hour, table tennis, gym, and cinema hall are all free of charge.
5. Complaining: As a tourist hotel, the breakfast and dinner times are a bit too early, breakfast at 9:30, dinner at 21:00! And all the entertainment venues in the hotel are off work at 22:00 in the evening, I hope the weekend business hours can be appropriately extended.
The children had a great time on the whole trip, and the food was very comfortable. This trip was very satisfying.
