We booked last minute and they were able to accommodate us. There was heavy rain but still very crowded but really worth the visit. History and architecture is incredible. Cora was our guide and she explained well in English and knew about many details about the construction of the palace and the history. A great experience (unlucky for the rain). Cora also waited for us as we were late and was very helpful throughout so thank you! Very good instructions on meeting point sent one day before the visit and very responsive customer service. Highly recommended.

Universal Beijing Resort offers a truly immersive experience, with highly faithful recreations of various IP-themed areas. It boasts a wide range of rides and attractions, and the parade and nighttime light show create a fantastic atmosphere, making it a great place to visit and take photos. However, during holidays, popular attractions may have long queues, and food prices within the park tend to be high. Overall, these minor flaws don't detract from the overall experience; whether you're traveling with family or friends, you're sure to have a fun and unforgettable time.

When visiting Dingzhou Ancient City, Kaiyuan Temple Pagoda is an absolute must-see! It is the famous "First Pagoda of China" mentioned in the old saying "Cangzhou Lion, Dingzhou Pagoda, and the Great Bodhisattva of Zhen Ding Prefecture".

There are many kinds of Chinese herbal medicines growing in the pine forest. Especially in summer, the lush pine forest is full of fragrant pine mushrooms. It is really interesting to be in the cool shade of the pine trees, picking pine mushrooms and digging wild vegetables. Due to the dense forests, there is plenty of water here. In the valleys, springs are dinging and streams are flowing continuously. Drinking a sip of mountain spring water is refreshing and refreshing. A breeze blew, and a faint floral fragrance came, which was as light as jasmine, and seemed to be mixed with the taste of the mountain. Occasionally, a few lilacs flashed in the weeds, so bright and eye-catching. There are clumps of thorn trees with small purple flowers, golden wild chrysanthemums, and bunches of wild grapes. At a glance, there are red, yellow, white, and purple colors. In the distance, you can't tell the flowers and colors, just dots all over the slopes. Dense flowers and plants cover the mountains; pine forests that cover the sky and connect the layers of mountains. This place is rarely visited by people, everything is full of wild flavor, and humans have not added any decoration.

This group tour was an excellent experience, and I must give a huge thumbs up to our tour guide, Song Lijuan. Throughout the entire trip, she was patient and meticulous. Knowing that there were several elderly people in the group, she deliberately slowed down the pace, never rushing anyone, and allowing ample rest and buffer time at each section of the route. Her explanations were exceptionally detailed. She not only explained the historical anecdotes of the scenic spots in a vivid and easy-to-understand way, but she would also stop to let the elderly catch up before continuing. She would also proactively offer assistance to elderly members with mobility issues, taking care of their needs at every turn. It was a truly heartwarming and reliable experience, making it a very comfortable trip.

The Dingzhou Examination Hall, actually the Dingzhou Examination Hall, was where the Qing Dynasty's preliminary examinations were held. The Lansheng Tower, also known as the Rear Tower, served as the offices and lodgings for the examiners. The statue of Kui Xing, the god of literature, is enshrined in the Kui Pavilion. Kui Xing is depicted with one leg raised backward, holding a dipper in one hand and a writing brush in the other, pointing to the successful candidate. This is the legendary "Kui Xing Pointing at the Dipper." The Qianlong Twin Locust Trees are located between the two main gates. Legend has it that Emperor Qianlong planted these two locust trees himself during his six trips to the south and five visits to Dingzhou.
