When I went to Baoding to visit my friends, I found out that the best anorectal hospital in China is not in Chengdu, but in Baoding, because it can protect the buttocks! Back to the topic, this city that I had never actively wanted to visit before also has its own heritage and many small and beautiful spots, which is very suitable for citywalk! · 1️⃣ West Street Baoding West Street was formed after Baoding was rebuilt in the Yuan Dynasty. It has the overall style characteristics of the Ming, Qing and Republic of China periods, combining Chinese and Western styles. [Zhili Post Office] [Florence Coffee] is very good at producing coffee. · 2️⃣ Zhili Governor's Office Learn about the culture and historical stories of the Qing Dynasty government offices. 1-9 official refrigerator magnets are very beautiful! · 3️⃣ Daci Pavilion The majestic and magnificent ancient building is magnificent. The temple is filled with the lingering Buddhist sounds and a sacred atmosphere, and is one of the landmark buildings in Baoding. 👉You can visit the [Baoding Catholic Church] next to it, and there is also the [Bell Tower Bread], you have to queue up one hour in advance. · 4️⃣ Huaijun Office The overall architectural style is compatible with both north and south. The reception courtyard, theater (Tindar plays when the sun is good), Xiantang, and Zhaozhong Temple are in the Hui style, and the northern courtyard is in the form of a northern quadrangle. · 5️⃣Baoding Museum It’s a pity that the museum’s treasure, the bronze horse 🐴, was taken away by the Shijiazhuang Museum, and only a replica remains. [Baoding Art Museum] [Guan Hanqing Grand Theater] is right next to it! · 6️⃣China Paleozoological Museum First of all, the architecture is very outstanding, a masterpiece by a master. Then there is the largest paleontological museum with numerous fossils. The dinosaur fossil exhibition area is extremely shocking. · 7️⃣Baoding City Exhibition Center The technology exhibition hall perfectly integrates sound, light and electricity, and there is a free "flying over the horizon" experience. · 8️⃣Lianchi Academy One of the eight scenic spots in Baoding Ancient City, Emperor Kangxi once carved a stone with the inscription "Dragon Flying" in his handwriting. Don't miss it if you like the history of ancient buildings and gardens. · 9️⃣ Qingxiling The grand royal mausoleum complex is magnificent. · In general, Baoding is a very surprising city. I hope you can spend 2-3 days to visit this city that even the donkeys don't want to leave.

😎 I traveled 300 km just for this room! I have always wanted to stay in a room with a bamboo forest outside the window. This time, I finally found a good place in the province, so I don't have to travel far. 😜 When I woke up in the morning, I lay in bed 🛏️ and didn't want to get up! I just watched the bamboo swaying in the wind outside the window, the bamboo leaves falling one by one, and occasionally a bird or butterfly flying by. It was so pleasant! 😍 When I walked out of the room, wow! The fragrance of osmanthus flowers filled the air 🌼, and the rustling of the wind blowing through the bamboo leaves 🎋 and the sound of flowing water were like a symphony of nature, refreshing and pleasant. I felt healed. 🤗 🎈 The service here is also great! Although it is a homestay, the service is not sloppy at all. The butler contacted me in advance via WeChat and created an exclusive service group. When I checked in, there were welcome fruits and refreshing tea 🍵, and they helped me with my luggage 🧳. It was so thoughtful! 🛏️ The room was so clean that I felt super comfortable walking barefoot on the floor! The food, drinks, and supplies in the room were of good quality. 👍 🤔 When it was almost time to check out, we were still hesitating whether to stay another night. It was so comfortable! 🍲 For dinner, you can order the homestay's special hot pot, which is delicious! Breakfast is included in the room rate, and there are two options: abalone porridge and wontons, both of which are super delicious 😋. For lunch, we went to Zhengguo Old Street, which is not far from the homestay, and it was very lively! 🤩 There are several amusement forest scenic spots and cultural villages nearby, but it was inconvenient for us to visit with a baby, so we just came to enjoy this bamboo forest homestay and didn't visit other places. 😏 🎊 The homestay also has a swimming pool and hot spring pool, and several rooms have children's swimming lanes. There is also a tea room, yoga room, and meeting room, and there are various room types. It really has everything! 😎 After visiting, many friends asked me where this was, and they were all attracted by the beautiful pictures of the homestay I posted! 🤳 In short, this is really a good place to consider staying again! 🤗💕 📍 Homestay: Baoding Four Seasons Bamboo Forest Academy

#The Business Suite We selected a Business Suite, at the "Zhongyin Hotel", also know as the "Jasper Hotel" in Baoding. The front of house added me to her Wechat, when we checked in. We were out for most of the day, as we had meetings to attend. We returned later that evening, and the front of house night staff, were courteous enough, to show us to our suite. "The room was preheated, and nice & warm, upon our arrival". This suite, was extremly spacious and elegant, and we both sincerely enjoyed it. Living Room: A lovely living room, with a comfortable sofa and ample space. Bedroom: The bed was comfortable, with high quality bedding. Bathroom: As for the bathroom, well it's very spacious with a walk in shower and a large bathtub. We enjoyed panoramic views of the city, from the suite. Buffet style breakfast was served, at the Horizon Restaurant on the 3rd floor. "The selection was good, with both Chinese and Western Style dishes to enjoy". Overall the hotel has a classic and elegant feel to it, with quality finishes, which remain timeless. The entire team of staff, ensured that we enjoyed our stay. Special thanks to the front office's, YangQian for her superb service. As well as the front office manager (Cindy), for her superb service, and for meeting our requests. We can recommend this hotel for business or leisure, foreign or domestic guests, will enjoy a high quality stay here. Upon our next visit to Baoding, we will surely return to the Zhongyin Hotel.

These are my few remaining pictures of my time spent in Baoding. There are so many friendly people in this area. Food is great.

Baoding city in Hebei province, it is an industrial city with good structure for visitors

Baoding Botanical Garden is worth a trip if you need a break from the bustling city, and a breath of fresh air. It is a huge green space, a haven amidst the skyscrapers, with statues, lakes and even a small fair park to enjoy. Lots of places to sit and eat a picnic, and escape that summer sunshine in the shade of the forests. Visit in spring for the first blooms, in summer to escape the heat, and autumn for the changing leaves. A beautiful place! #triplocal

📌Yishui Lake 📌 From the ticket gate to the location we have to board the ship for approximately 10 minutes. Entrance and shipping fees are 120 RMB. At the location we are presented with a natural view of the lake surrounded by hills. The path used to climb hills is strong and comfortable, especially the climbing process that is not too difficult, suitable for young children and old people. Be careful with your items, especially sunglasses and hats. Because of the wind or accidentally falling, do not expect to be taken back. You are not allowed to climb the road fence or go down the hillside. #givethanks

Baoding is not just about the serious mission of "defending the capital and stabilizing the world"; it is a historic small city where you can stroll slowly and savor every moment. --- Day 1: Travel Through Time and Experience the Zhili Era Morning: Zhili Governor’s Office — A Government Office, Half of Qing History When you arrive in Baoding, this must be your first stop. It’s right in the city center, very convenient. Don’t underestimate this gate that doesn’t look particularly grand; inside is the “provincial government building” of Qing Dynasty’s Zhili Province. Big historical figures like Li Hongzhang and Zeng Guofan worked here. Step inside, and the weight of history hits you immediately. The main hall, second hall, official residences, garden... all very well preserved. Standing in the hall, you can almost hear the officials discussing state affairs back then. My favorite spot is the garden at the back — small but exquisite. Sitting under the corridor, take a break and imagine whether Minister Li Zhongtang once pondered national matters here. Take your time here, spend an hour or so, especially if you’re interested in history. Noon: Hungry? Try Baoding’s Traditional Flavors! After leaving the Governor’s Office, your stomach will definitely be growling. Don’t go to big malls; instead, head into the nearby Yuhua Road or Ju Alley. Baoding’s delicacies are hidden in these small streets and alleys. Top must-eat: Donkey Meat Sandwich (Donkey Burger)! This is absolutely the soul of Baoding cuisine! You must find a donkey meat sandwich shop that looks like it’s been around for a while. Freshly baked sandwich bread, crispy and flaky on the outside, filled with finely chopped, steaming hot donkey meat, topped with some rich broth... oh my, one bite and your mouth is full of flavor, the satisfaction is incredible! Remember, eat the round sandwich bread — it’s the Baoding style signature. If you want to try more, you can also taste beef-covered flatbread or Bai Yunzhang steamed buns, both are local old brands recognized by residents. Afternoon: Ancient Lotus Pool — The Exquisite Royal Garden After lunch, take a stroll to the Ancient Lotus Pool, very close to the Governor’s Office. It’s called the “City’s Penglai,” a perfect example of a small and delicate garden. Once you enter, you’ll feel like you’ve instantly traveled from the bustling city into a tranquil landscape painting. Summer is the best time to visit, with lotus flowers blooming all over the pond, pavilions and towers reflected in the water, a breathtaking sight. Even outside of flower season, the ancient buildings and stone inscriptions inside are worth seeing. Walk along the winding corridor, lean on the railing and watch the koi fish in the water — it’s very relaxing. This place is perfect for photos, so make sure your phone is fully charged. Evening: Stroll Yuhua Road and Experience the Ancient City Nightlife Don’t go far at night, just wander around Yuhua Road. Now Yuhua Road is brightly lit, blending ancient charm with modern city vitality. You can find a café to sit in or a quiet bar for a drink to end your first day. --- Day 2: Seek Wild Fun and Explore Ancient Sites Morning: Mancheng Han Tombs — Explore the Underground Palace of Prince Jing of Zhongshan If you have enough time, I strongly recommend spending half a day visiting the Mancheng Han Tombs. They are located in Mancheng District of Baoding, so you’ll need to take a car there. This is the tomb of Liu Sheng, Prince Jing of Zhongshan from the Western Han Dynasty, and his wife Dou Wan — the ancestor Liu Bei often mentioned. The biggest highlights are the “Gold Thread Jade Burial Suit” and the “Changxin Palace Lantern” (Note: the originals are in national or provincial museums, but the tomb site and replicas are still very impressive). When you enter the huge tomb carved into the mountain, the mysterious and overwhelming feeling of traveling through thousands of years is something you can’t experience in a museum. Climb the hillside and you can overlook the scenery of Mancheng — a wonderful feeling. Afternoon/Alternative: Jingxiu Park or Former Site of the Army Officer School · If you like natural scenery: After returning to the city, you can visit Jingxiu Park, a large leisure park for Baoding residents with lakes and towers. You can row a boat and experience the local slow life. · If you are a military/history enthusiast: Visit the former site of the Army Officer School. This was the first formal army school in modern China, training many military talents, known as the “Cradle of Generals.” Although there aren’t many buildings, its historical significance is very high and it offers a unique perspective on modern history. --- Some Thoughtful Tips: 1. Transportation: Baoding’s city center is small and attractions are concentrated. Riding a shared bike or taking a taxi is very convenient. For the Mancheng Han Tombs, it’s recommended to take a taxi or check for tourist shuttle buses. 2. Accommodation: It’s best to stay near Yuhua Road, where eating, drinking, and entertainment are convenient, and the nights won’t be boring. 3. Pace: Baoding is not a city for rushing around. It’s best to slow down and truly feel its profound history and cultural heritage. Don’t rush the sights; slow down and you’ll discover its beauty. 4. More Food Tips: Besides donkey meat sandwiches, try Huai Mao pickled vegetables as souvenirs — they have a very unique flavor. Baoding is like a fine aged wine that you need to savor slowly. Hope you have a great time and enjoy delicious food in Baoding!

Who says Baoding is just a "pass-through"? As a travel blogger who loves North China culture, I want to tell you: Baoding is a seriously underrated historic city. It was once the residence of the Governor-General of Zhili, carrying the weight of "one Governor-General's office, half of Qing history reflected"; it also has the bustling local flavors of donkey meat sandwiches and Bai Yunzhang steamed buns.

When the passion of esports collides with the desire for travel exploration, a unique "esports travel photoshoot" is born. It is not just a record of esports spaces but also a dual memory of games and distant places carved out for esports enthusiasts within the cityscape. 1. The "Battle Aesthetics" of Esports Spaces: The Cyber Main Stage in Hotels Opening the door to an esports hotel feels like stepping into a real-life "gaming base." Professional esports chairs, like dormant mechas, envelop the fiery spirit of every "warrior"; high-spec monitors flicker with the bizarre and fantastic worlds of games, where the storms of the League of Legends Rift and the battlefield smoke of PUBG become tangible. The room design is full of clever touches: cold metallic walls intertwined with neon lights create a cyberpunk atmosphere; the cozy soft furnishings in the bed area offer a gentle corner for rest after intense "battles." The bathroom’s modern design is also on point, with smart toilets and double sinks, allowing for a refined daily routine even during "battle breaks." Taking photos here requires no forced posing—the focused grip on the mouse while sitting in the esports chair, the high-five moments with teammates during battles, the smile raised after winning a match... every action is a natural expression of esports passion, and the camera captures the "highlight moments" belonging to gamers. 2. The "Offline Quest" of City Networks: Scene Breakthroughs from Garage to Museum The fun of esports travel photoshoots lies in breaking the boundary of "esports only indoors." The hotel’s underground garage is the first "Easter egg scene": bright yellow lines like mission guides in a game, and the spacious area is perfect for shooting street-style photos of "esports trendsetters." The cool outfits collide with the industrial garage vibe, wild yet stylish. When we step into the Baoding Natural History Museum (China Paleontology Museum), the dimension of esports travel photoshoots expands completely. The artistic design of the museum’s exterior acts like a cinematic filter; checking in here with friends blends the identities of "esports players" and "cultural explorers." The animal specimen exhibition inside resembles a fantasy quest, echoing the "biological secret realms" in games; the tech-savvy display of the paleontology evolution section creates a fascinating resonance with esports’ futuristic feel. The most ingenious touch is the museum’s cultural creative ice cream, sculpted with architectural and dinosaur elements. Holding it alongside esports gear in the same frame maximizes the fun of "esports + cultural tourism"—like collecting a limited-edition item in a game, this photo holds a dual memory of travel and passion. 3. The "Narrative Logic" of Esports Travel Photoshoots: Dual Memories of Passion and Exploration At the core of esports travel photoshoots is the story that connects "love for gaming" and "city exploration" through the lens. In the esports hotel, it records the pure joy of "gathering with like-minded friends and intense gaming"; at city landmarks, it showcases the diverse passion of "stepping out of the screen and embracing the world." Esports travel photoshoots capture more than just images—they embody the lifestyle attitude of contemporary youth—we love the thrilling passion in games and the fireworks and civilization of the world. When these two meet through the camera, they become a unique, vibrant youth scrapbook.

[A Feast in the Clouds That Will Stun Your Taste | Yunyue Hotel Food Recommendations] We chose the Yunyue Hotel for our dinner, and it lived up to our expectations! From the ambiance to the dishes, every detail was impeccable, a feast for both the senses and the eyes. 🌟 Must-Order Dishes 🌟 1. Classic Boiling Fish: A must-order for almost every table! The hot oil was still sizzling when it arrived, and the aroma was fragrant. The fish fillet was incredibly tender and melt-in-your-mouth, with just the right amount of spicy and savory flavor—a perfect accompaniment to rice! 2. Double Ear Wild Treasure Bone Fried Meatballs: This dish is truly creative! The outer skin is fried to a golden crisp, and the meat filling is blended with the delicious flavors of wild delicacies, creating a rich and complex taste. The accompanying "double ears" (presumably wood ear and white fungus) added a refreshing touch, both relieving greasiness and enhancing the flavor. 3. Artistic Blueberry Yam: This is definitely a dish that's a beauty standout! The exquisitely crafted dish, like a work of art, was so tempting I couldn't resist. The yam paste was smooth and creamy, topped with a sweet and sour blueberry sauce, refreshing and appetizing. Ladies and children will love it. 4.
