Aranya in Qinhuangdao is known as the "Utopia of Literature and Art".
#100waysoftravel
Who knows! Every moment that time, I cried so much! Aranya in Qinhuangdao is known as the "Utopia of Literature and Art". This place combines various art forms such as aesthetics, music, literature, architecture, etc. Traveling here provides a transcendent travel art experience, where you can discover romantic little joys in your daily life. There are many cultural attractions that can be visited all year round, and I highly recommend walking in winter and summer as the scenery will be even better. Taichi Yue! Due to the fact that Anaya is different from traditional tourist attractions, it is a closed and privately managed community that can be accessed through the following four channels: 1. Consultation with the property owner: Can Anaya property owners help with the check-in procedures? 2. Admission with a ticket: If there are music festivals, drama festivals, or other performances in the community, you can enter with a ticket. 3. Accommodation guests: Book accommodation for people or hotels in the park, and enter "How to enter Anaya?" based on the reservation information

📍 Anaya·EOSO Yun Song Hotel
The calmness of the sea can keep people away from the hustle and bustle of the city
Enjoy a sense of calm and composure
People who live in the city for a long time yearn for a pure land of the soul
With purity and beauty, stay here, play

In Qinhuangdao Anaya, where culture and art blend
There is a boutique hotel standing on the coast
The architectural design is from Aoyama Zhou Ping

Every detail is full of artistic atmosphere
·
Anaya·EOSO Yun Song Hotel
Located in the first phase of Anaya·Beidaihe's coastal area
Adjacent to Anaya Chapel and Lonely Library
Leaning on the soft beach and azure sea
It is an ideal place for seaside vacation life in the north
·
Dark bronze doors, cement-colored low walls
They are integrated with the surrounding landscape houses
Although it is in the coastal area of Anaya's core area
But as soon as you enter the courtyard, the hustle and bustle of the outside world is immediately isolated
What replaces it is a quiet and leisurely atmosphere
The dry landscape garden design by Lu Xi
Let people feel different emotions in the changing scenery
Either quiet, or vivid, or humorous
It's like entering a private mansion hidden in the hustle and bustle
·
The overall design of Yun Song Hotel is dominated by simplicity
Avoided too much stacking and decoration
The artworks and rare books placed inside
They are all carefully selected and collected by the person in charge for a long time
Added a cultural atmosphere to the entire space
The hotel is not large, with only 12 rooms
Moderate and restrained, but with more sincerity
Most of the rooms on the first floor have private courtyards
All 3 rooms on the second floor are equipped with sea-view balconies
Every element has been carefully considered and selected
Smooth lines run through
And the soft and warm hidden lighting system
Highlights the comfortable atmosphere of returning home

The hotel also has a viewing platform stretching to the coastal beach
There is a 17-meter infinity pool embedded in the sea front
The poolside is surrounded by curtain daybeds, loungers and dining seats
For guests to enjoy the sea and sky in a free, calm and elegant posture

I took some lifetime photos at Aranya and here are the locations to share
📍Location: Aranya in December.

💙As we all know, Aranya is very photogenic, and you can get great shots anywhere. The sea in the north in winter, coupled with the full sense of design architecture, gives a sense of deja vu in minutes.

Beijing Escape | Qinhuangdao | Lonely Library
This is a nice weekend escape from Beijing - around 2hr15 ride on the fast speed train. The library and church are actually part of the Aranya resort and is located on the beach front of the resort.
You can chose to stay in the resort or can also stay outside and pay only to enter the library area .
I stayed outside and payed an entrance fee. However I would really recommend booking a room and staying in Aranya. You can’t really swim in the sea but the resort seems to have its own pool, restaurant and even a livehouse.
Also if are able to avoid the holiday periods - you can actually get some nice deals at Aranya.

I can SEA you
An amazing getaway from Beijing. I try to go once a year to the beach nearest to the capital and I love to go in may before the crowds start coming. The weather is not that warm in may but I just love to feel the sand under my feet. This time we drove a car to Aranya. It took about 3 hours each way.
As an alternative you can take a train from Beijing to Beidaihe or Qinhuangdao train station, they are not so far apart and from the station it’s very easy to take a taxi or DiDi. Aranya is a closed community with hotels, apartments, restaurants, shops, cinema and you need to live in one of the hotels or go to an event to be able to get access to enter. Once inside it is so amazing nice. The beach stretch is quite long and you can find a church, library and bars along the beach.
As we entered we had lunch at HE Kitchen before heading to the beach. In the evening we had shake shack however there are multiple options for food if you want to explore. Very satisfying to just be by the ocean and get some vitamin Sea 🌊 #2023travelwish #passionpassport #Beidaihe #Aranya
Aranya! This nice “little town”! 🌊
Aranya!
The best place to visit while you’re in Qinhuangdao! Totally worth it! This “little town” has got everything inside! The beach, many western restaurants and bars, outdoor movie area, cinema, library, church etc! The architecture is very modern!
I will definitely return during summer! Would love to spend some summer holidays here! #holidays

#tripaway
This is my second time not at home, this year I came to Beidaihe Anaya
evening in the sea breeze bar to shoot people's cocktails, my girlfriend and I do not drink, a cup of jasmine, because I have not changed the hot milk forever Yes, there is no heat
small barbecue tastes quite good, chicken wings, chicken cartilage, kebabs, scallops, ribs, taro slices, chicken chop, kidneys...
and burgers, salads, snacks / Hh/pizza is only 12 inches, I think it is very big, actually it is very thin, so not much. The price is a bit high 158, double spell 188, in fact, no reason. We ordered the durian spelt avocado prawns, and the durian tastes very strong.
The service is very good, so busy, the attitude is very good. The ordering staff is easy to lose the order and has to stare at himself.
Like the table, the bartenders are busy at a close, great. The cocktail is super nice. Its hard to ask for a New Years Eve. If you finish eating, you wont leave, so come early.
Looking at the circle of friends, I found that there are so many friends coming to Anaya for the New Year!
This is not a summer patent. There are different landscapes
lonely libraries in different seasons, Anaya Auditorium, UCCA Dunes Art Museum, one-way space, Anaya Youth Camp... there are lots of fun, and New Year's event performance
sea water frozen on a side, like a cocktail cup, the sea may be a cup of people
Like art, and can be quiet children, there is also a place to see exhibitions in Anaya, from the Ullens Center for Contemporary Art (UCCA) in Beijing 798, where the [UCCA Dunes Art Museum] presents 9/group artists. s work. The
exhibition refers to the reality faced by Chinese contemporary art creation in the context of human narration in which the wild nature gradually disappears and the relationship between the individual and nature is fully transformed.
Abandoning the exhibition, the general people do not understand the connotation, the building itself is more attractive than the exhibition, the space is very suitable for changing angle photography, hidden under a small hill. There is a small cafe in
, which can be directly connected to the outdoor, there is a spiral staircase to the second floor, and there are three floors, but the stairs are a highlight
live in a concealed hotel, you can take the hotel battery car Go back and you can wait on the roadside. There is a hotel car that can go back.
Here is probably the most beautiful art museum!
Beidaihe Anaya's UCCA dunes are an art museum hidden under the dunes, facing the open beach. The exhibition hall is made up of a series of cell-like continuous spaces like caves, very beautiful m
2019.9.22-2020.2 .23. The exhibition of True New Town Log of Dune Art Museum is derived from the True New Town in the Japanese classic animation The Elf Pokemon in the 1990s. It is both a place where humans and elves first met, and a dream. Where it is.
Let us feel the unexpected beauty of the artist using technology to create a natural scene and create fantasy in the autumn seaside~
Anaya Photo Raiders: Shoot the most beautiful and most filmed at dusk!
came to Anaya and found that it was a little different from what I thought. Of course, the building is still beautiful, and the waters of Beidaihe are also beautiful! And people who often have surfers during the day, sitting on the beach, really enjoy, but when they come to the church of Anaya, there are people except everyone, people, people, want to find a corner of no one to take pictures, That is almost impossible.
So, I want to take a panoramic view of the church. I dont know what else to do except the aerial photography. Because its all of them, Ive got a small problem with my aerial photography. Friends did not bring a memory card, only the phone connected to the screenshot, so this picture quality is a bit slag ~ this band can be aerial photography, the plane can fly to shoot, very beautiful ~
morning shot, the sun Big, hard light! The eyes can't open, basically the state of blinking!
In the afternoon, the sun is still very large, and more and more people.
evening sunset: This time is the best shot, the sun is going down the mountain, the light of the evening is soft and graceful, the angle is good, there will be some light and shadow, it is really Gentle and good-looking ~ In addition to shooting the auditorium, I think it is OK to stand on the beach. If there is a wave, it feels great.
This trip, although a lot of people are beyond imagination, but the photos taken are quite satisfactory.
PS: Because the building is beige, so just look for a corner, no one, stand, squat, sit and pat, pat, clothes, I think the solid color is pretty good~~ too deep The color is very conflicting, and it may not look good when you shoot it, but this is still a matter of personal preference!
1. Appointment: Search for an appointment on the WeChat public account to visit Anaya. Some attractions have a limited number of appointments per day, which is a fee. I dont remember how much money I can ask.
2. Check-in: Choose to stay in a villa, hotel or hotel in the Anaya community, with a room card or a hotel voucher, you can choose the hotel directly in the WeChat public account!
Address:
Ana Gold Coast Community, located in the Anaya Auditorium, Gold Coast Central District, Changli County, Qinhuangdao, Hebei Province

We stayed at this B&B in Aranya for CNY 300 per person per night.
Our B&B can accommodate 4–6 people. It is a loft room located in Phase 2. It has a large terrace and a sea view from the upper floors. It is a 5-minute walk from the beach. The current price is less than half of the summer price. Aranya is undoubtedly the best choice in the off-season.
The B&B we booked also offers a youth room-sharing mode, which is suitable for couples or friends traveling together. Aranya is no longer a place where you are put off by the price. We spent a small amount of money on a big event and received a rich welcome gift. The service attitude of the owner is also very good. It is the best choice for college students who want to save money.
Indigo Beidaihe Hotel.
Indigo Beidaihe Hotel|||Indigo Beidaihe Hotel, which will open in the summer of 2024, is located in the Rushi Sea Resort, next to Anaya.

Qinhuangdao Golden Coast.
It was afternoon when I arrived at the coast. After settling down, I went straight to the beach and plunged into the embrace of the Golden Coast, where I had a great time all afternoon. When I first arrived, I was greeted by a sea of tents and colorful picnic mats, and the crowd was bustling and lively. There are many snack streets and hotels around, which are very convenient for eating, staying, or watching the sunrise early in the morning. Many people asked where this is, and the answer is in the last picture.
The next morning, I got up at four o'clock, just for the gorgeous sunrise. The sea breeze was blowing gently, and it was cool, so a long sleeve was just right. When the red sun rose, the golden light shone on the sea, and the waves were sparkling. The magnificent view of the "Orange Sea" was really well-deserved, which was fascinating.
When the sunrise was over, at about six or seven o'clock, I packed my bags and went to Grape Island to catch the sea. At eight or nine o'clock, there were many people catching the sea on the island, and I also gained a lot. The doghead shrimp were jumping in the bucket, and the sense of accomplishment was beyond words!
The beautiful Aranya in the early morning is amazing! I was blown away!
🌞 When the sun rises, the sea looks like it has been enchanted, turning a beautiful orange color. 😍 The lonely church looks even more mysterious in the morning light. The flying seagulls are like elves in the sky, and the romantic swings sway gently in the sea breeze. The romantic sunrise in Aranya is something I could never get tired of watching. I could watch it forever! 💕 Now, let me share my Aranya travel guide with you. 👇
🚗 [Transportation]
You can take a high-speed train to Beidaihe Station or Changli Station, and then take a taxi. It takes about half an hour to get to the Aranya community. 😎 I recommend staying in the scenic area, so it's convenient to get up early to watch the sunrise. 🛏️
🌅 [Sunrise]
The sunrise is around 6:30 am, but the light of the sunrise actually starts around 5:30 am. The light at this time is very soft and beautiful, and the photos taken are amazing. 📷
📸 [Photo Guide]
1. 🌊 Aranya Chapel
Whether at sunrise or during the blue hour, from the front or the side, this sacred church is super photogenic! It's like it has its own halo, and it looks beautiful no matter how you take the photo. 😎
2. 📖 Lonely Library
It's on the left side of the church, just a few steps away. It has a frame structure, and when you take photos at sunrise, the atmosphere is amazing. 👏
3. ☕ Bar Lotus
The first floor is full of autumn atmosphere with reeds, and the second floor has windows facing the sea. This is a treasure coffee shop. You can take artistic photos here. 😜
4. 🐶 Kennel
In the afternoon, the sunlight shines through the gaps in the building, forming a beautiful beam of light, like a dream world. The light and shadow effects are amazing. 🤩
5. 🎠 Swings
There are many swings on the beach. Sitting on the swing, facing the sea, it feels like you're heading towards freedom. Any photo you take will look great. 😎
6. 🐦 Seagulls
I didn't expect there to be so many seagulls in Aranya. You can prepare some bread, feed the seagulls, and take photos. The scene is really beautiful. 🥰
❄️ [Notes]
It's quite cold by the sea in winter, so make sure to keep warm and don't catch a cold.

I'll choose Yinlu again next time I go in the off-season!
Aranya | Yinlu Hotel Real Experience
I was torn between Yinlu and Anlan before I went.
I ended up choosing Yinlu in Phase 8. Although it's a bit far, the off-season doesn't affect the experience at all.
I really like the Japanese style, and the whole hotel smells nice.
There is a card with the sunrise time for the next day on the bedside table.
The shuttle bus is very convenient no matter where you go.
Breakfast is very ordinary, but you can eat your fill, and the environment is very good.
Take a nice bath at night and then get up early the next day to watch the sunrise.
I regret not booking a few more days.
I'll choose Yinlu again next time I go in the off-season.
