📍Zigong Colored Lantern Park. 1 hour and 30 minutes bullet train away from Chengdu City the capital city of Sichuan Province. We took the train from the East Railway Station in Chengdu and arrive at the Zigong Railway Station. The Lantern Park's entrance fee is 118 rmb per person. There are also food stalls outside and inside the park so there's easy access for food if you get hungry. Zigong City is one of China's historical and cultural cities. It is called the Lantern Town of the South Kingdom. All of these lanterns are made of bamboo, silk, paper, glass bottles, and porcelain. We stayed at Yingxiang International Hotel which is a little bit over 400 rmb a night but there are so many cheaper options to choose from. This is a MUST Visit during the long CNY and Spring Festival holiday. #valentinescape #2023travelwish #tripblazers

🧹Soundproofing/Cleanliness: Since the hotel isn't located near a main road, it's very quiet at night with no traffic noise. The lobby is spacious, and the rooms are clean and tidy. 🏘️Room Type/Layout: We booked a duplex room with two floors. The room was very large, with two 1.5-meter beds and children's toiletries provided. The bathroom has a dry-wet separation design. 🛌Amenities/Facilities: Full Wi-Fi coverage, and toiletries include shampoo and shower gel. 💰Average Cost: Around 200-300 per person, but prices may vary during holidays—expect higher rates in peak season. We traveled during the off-season to avoid crowds. 💗Other Tips: Fantawild Dinosaur Park is right across the street—just an 8-minute walk away. You can visit the park first and then drive back from the hotel parking lot (free parking available). There’s also a charging station in the hotel’s large square, making it very convenient. The high-speed rail station is an 18-minute drive away, and taxis/ride-hailing services are easily accessible.

Tea, free soup, free vegetables, unlimited servings. There are many restaurants like this in Chengdu. Try it. It's delicious, I confirm.

I went to the Zigong Lantern Festival during Golden Week. I was quite unsure about my plane ticket, but going via Wuhan was the right decision. Departure was smooth. There was a long line to get tickets to Pudong. There was a direct bus from Zigong Station. I went to see the lanterns during daylight hours and was impressed by the intricate construction of the lanterns. The number of people started to increase after 8pm. Tomorrow is the last day. It's the off-season and the sun sets late, so is this an acceptable way to see the lanterns?

Experience at Zigong Dainaoshou Hotel Location: 100 meters from Zigong Fantawild, and just a few hundred meters from the Dinosaur Museum. The location is truly excellent. Environment: Completed in 2022, it's a very new hotel divided into three sections. The entire lobby and rooms are very clean and tidy. The restaurant is spotless, and the facilities are comprehensive, including a gym, laundry room, and reading room. Rooms: I stayed in both the garden view room and the family room. The room control system is indeed convenient, the toilet is smart, and the bathroom has separate wet and dry areas, which I really like. The rooms aren't large, about 30+ square meters, but the space is sufficient. Children will love the family room with its many dinosaur elements - toothbrushes, slippers, bath towels, and bathrobes all feature dinosaur designs. I especially liked the toothbrush and slippers - they were such good quality that I took them home. The garden view room has a gray color scheme and is cheaper than the family room, with fewer dinosaur elements. I highly recommend the family room. Dining: There aren't many dining options nearby, though there is a McDonald's. The hotel offers a menu, but we found it slightly expensive, so we ate at McDonald's instead. However, the menu looked good. The hotel breakfast is very rich, buffet-style, and even includes Fushun tofu pudding and cold rabbit meat. The noodles are delicious, with homemade toppings that are extremely tasty. Overall: Five stars, quite nice, clean and cozy.
