488 reviews

Lightning Lake Jingbei Wetland Grassland is located in Guyuan County. Lightning Lake is the largest lake in the upper reaches of the Luan River, named after the Lightning River that flows into it. Viewed from above, the lake's shape resembles a bolt of lightning. The lake is shallow with clear water where aquatic plants sway, and occasionally, river shrimp can be seen swimming freely. Black and white waterbirds dart agilely across the water's surface, adding vitality to the lake at dusk. The vast grasslands by the lake offer picturesque scenery. Standing amidst the endless green fields with sparse clouds and blooming wildflowers, one feels as if the sky is pressing down and clouds are brushing by. By the lake, travelers can gallop on horseback across the grassland, soar through the sky in a trike glider, or climb the rolling charcoal mountains to watch the sunrise and sunset, experiencing the unique charm of the grassland and leaving behind the noise and stress of the city.

Centuries of historical changes and nature's artistic craftsmanship have shaped this picturesque landscape where the gently rippling Lightning River meanders peacefully, creating eighteen graceful bends that form the spectacular scenery of Luanhe River Scenic Spot. Luanhe River Scenic Spot is nestled against Zhuanfo Mountain to the north, borders Jinlianchuan to the south, neighbors Zhuanfo Temple Village to the east, and overlooks Grassland Lake to the west. Across the landscape stands the Yuan Dynasty's "Little Hongcheng Ruins," forming a harmonious composition with other major attractions in the county. This creates an ideal setting where "distant layered views captivate the eye, and nearby destinations are just a short journey away." The area boasts 210 species of wild plants and 222 species of terrestrial vertebrates, including 31 protected animal species. Its wetland ecosystem, natural views, and biodiversity showcase strong typicality and representativeness among grassland wetlands. At the scenic spot's highest point on Zhuanfo Mountain, the park management has constructed boardwalks and pavilions following the mountain's contours, preserving the original highland wetland ecology while establishing a 34.3-hectare viewing area. The meandering Lightning River is set in the vast grasslands, creating a uniquely beautiful landscape. The Neolithic-era altar and the military command platform from the Liao, Jin, and Yuan dynasties carry historical imprints of changing eras, reflecting the brilliance of Chinese civilization. Amid the summer heat, this place offers refreshing tranquility and relaxation, making it an ideal destination for leisure, summer retreats, rejuvenation, and photography.

Badaling Great Wall

4.7/5

63.7k reviews

The Badaling Great Wall is a highly representative section of the Ming Great Wall, located in Yanqing, Beijing, north of Juyong Pass. Since ancient times, it has been a strategic military location guarding the northwestern passage to the capital. The pass city is trapezoidal in shape, narrow in the east and wide in the west, with two gates, east and west. The east gate bears the inscription "Juyong Outer Town," and the west gate bears the inscription "Key to the North Gate." Both inscriptions remain clearly legible to this day. Extending north from the pass is the North Wall, along which more than ten watchtowers are distributed; to the south is the South Wall, which has fewer watchtowers. North Tower 8 is the highest point of the entire section, at over 1,000 meters above sea level, and from its top you can overlook the magnificent sweep of the wall winding along the mountain ridges. The North Wall has higher terrain and steeper slopes with open views, and is the main route for most visitors; the South Wall is relatively gentle and less crowded, making it suitable for visitors who want to take photos at a relaxed pace and avoid the crowds. If time permits, walking the South Wall first and then the North Wall is a more leisurely arrangement. Badaling Great Wall is also one of the earlier sections of the wall opened to the public. The top surface of the wall is paved with square bricks, and the widest parts can accommodate five horses walking side by side. Defensive structures such as battlements and arrow holes are well preserved, and walking along it gives a direct sense of the construction standards of Ming Dynasty border defense works. In fall, layers of red leaves on the mountains contrast beautifully with the gray brick wall, making it a season that many photography enthusiasts travel specifically to capture. ▲Travel through 600 years of gilded splendor and encounter the visual shock of crimson red leaves blanketing the mountains ▲nightAs night falls, it winds through the mountains like a brilliant golden dragon, and the ancient city wall illuminated by lights tells of the glory and mystery of a thousand years of history ▲ In winter, the Badaling Great Wall, covered in pristine white snow, winds through the mountains like a silver dragon. The golden light of dawn spills across the wall, painting a tranquil and magnificent picture.

The Forbidden City, also known as the Imperial Palace, was the imperial palace of the Ming and Qing dynasties, and is also the symbol of ancient China. When you are in the majestic and orderly high walls and deep courtyards, you can truly feel its former glory. ▲The long history has left behind large-scale precious buildings and countless cultural relics, which have also become the main attraction of visiting the Forbidden City today. ▲Classic attractions: The Forbidden City Corner Tower is a polygonal building with a convex plane on all four sides. It is located in Dongcheng District, Beijing. The roof has three layers. The upper layer is a hip roof with vertical and horizontal intersections. It is composed of a gable roof with flowing water on two slopes and a hip roof with four slopes. Because there are nine main ridges on this roof, it is called the Nine-ridge Hall. ▲Sundials are divided into two types according to their installation principle: equatorial and horizontal. The sundial installed using the equatorial principle is called an equatorial sundial. The key points of its production are that it must have a time plate, a latitude arc and a gnomon. When operating, the time plate must be parallel to the equatorial plane of the earth, the gnomon must be in the same direction as the earth's axis, and the shadow cast by the gnomon on the gnomon is the desired time. ▲The Treasure House is located in the Ningshou Palace area. It has a rich collection of treasures, including Buddhist supplies, ornaments, daily utensils, and treasures for appreciation. Among them, the red coral lion about 14 cm high, the Dongzhu court beads about 130 cm long, and the gold "Fengtianzhibao" seal are all rare treasures. ▲The Clock and Watch Museum is located in the Fengxian Hall in the palace.

In addition to the timing function, these clocks are decorated with figures, birds, beasts, flowers, etc., which can also make various different movements. They are very delicately made. Among them, the copper-plated gilded writing clock, the copper-plated gilded enamel gourd-top fishing and woodcutting farming clock, and the copper-plated gilded rotating flower running man rhinoceros carrying clock are very rare.

“🌿Don't just treat Bashang as a "place to ride horses and take photos" Having visited Fengning four times, from chasing flower fields in summer to birch forests in autumn, I really want to say: It's close to Beijing, cool, and photogenic, but rushing in blindly = a trap, while taking it slow = an amazing experience.”
