Things to do in Dachang

The queues for popular attractions are quite long, but the facilities are pretty good. The views from the air are great and the experience is quite unique. The shows here are all excellent, and the performers are very dedicated.

The Jingdong First Hot Spring Resort has a well that is 3200 meters deep, with a water temperature of 62 degrees Celsius. It contains metasilicic acid, strontium, lithium, and manganese, which have health benefits. After experiencing it, I found it to have warming, muscle-relaxing, blood-circulating, and metabolism-boosting effects – it was so relaxing!

The place is very nice and amazing , very crowded both of foreigners and local people

张洋导游讲解的非常好！All visitors should book the national Museum of China trip. It is not easy to book on your own, book through Trip.com and have a guide to share the history with you..

Xianghe is amazing! It saved us the fatigue of long-distance travel with a baby. The magnificent ancient architecture made for great nighttime photos. The Yongle Changge opera performance was spectacular. Even though my one-year-old didn't understand, he loved it! We changed into traditional costumes at the Shangyi Bureau and felt truly immersed in the experience. After the opera, there was a metal flower performance. In the evening, we enjoyed a whole roasted cow and a bonfire party, with the park brightly lit. During the day, there were continuous interactive programs throughout the area. We strolled through the intangible cultural heritage market, the snack street, the temple fair, and the children's playground. We experienced a more vibrant and lively traditional atmosphere than in the city. Most importantly, it was great value for money! 👍 Whether it was accommodation or entertainment, it was excellent. The chef at the local Xianghe meat pie stall told us that he had been making pie non-stop since early morning. 🥞 The scaled-down reconstruction of the old town was quite spectacular. If you have time, definitely go!

I went to Beijing for a trip and came to Universal Studios. Waterworld is one of the parks, but there is only a theater here. I watched a large-scale pirate show. It is the place where you need to wear a raincoat to watch the show. There are several performances a day, but you need to pay attention to the schedule, because it is not like other amusement parks where you can come and go at any time. The performance is set at a fixed time. This performance is also worth seeing. It is very shocking and very real.

What a fantastic amusement park! Before we went, we were told the park wasn't very big and we'd only have two or three hours to play. But the kids played for the whole afternoon and still weren't satisfied! It's not just a few rides; there are also many carnival activities, so the kids had endless fun and felt incredibly accomplished. There were also some really nice shops and souvenirs. My child said they'd definitely go again!

The largest urban park within Beijing's Fourth Ring Road, it's free and incredibly welcoming. With its vast lawns, expansive lake, and stunning European-style architecture and fairytale castle, it's perfect for photos. You can run, boat, take your kids, and visit exhibitions. It's comfortable year-round, and locals often come here to relax.

I went to the Dachang Nationalities Palace on my weekend break. This building, designed by Professor He Jingtang, combines traditional and modern styles. The concept of "round sky and square earth" is matched with 56 petal-shaped doorways, highlighting the national characteristics. I went to the library first, where there are a wide variety of books and a quiet environment, which is very suitable for reading. The exhibition hall is not large and the number of exhibits is limited, but it can also let people understand the local history and culture. Unfortunately, there was no performance at the National Theater that day, so I was unable to experience it. Overall, the Dachang Nationalities Palace is still worth a visit.

The Temple of Heaven is beautiful, but very crowded. There are freelance photographers wandering around charging ¥30 per photo. I bought a few photos, and I think it makes for a great spot to get some souvenir photos. Keep walking a little past the Temple of Heaven, and you’ll be transported into a quiet garden with no one around. One of my favorite moments in Beijing, just enjoying the birds and squirrels in the little dirt paths along the garden. A very different experience from the crowds gathered around the temple.
