Jiangnan Secret Garden in Zhengzhou: A Family Trip to Zhanyuan Garden

Kids! Taking the little ones to check in at Zhanyuan Garden in Zhengzhou feels like stepping into a Jiangnan painting～ Family trip experience 💯👇 🌿 Kids' Happy Corner As soon as we entered, the koi in the pond caught our attention! Red, gold, and spotted, a school of fish rushed over to compete for food when we fed them. The kids squatted by the railing, laughing nonstop～ The winding stone paths are perfect for playing hide-and-seek, and running around between white walls and black tiles feels like an adventure in a historical drama～ 📸 Family Photo Tips Wear light-colored clothes! Use the pavilions and waterside as the background, let the kids reach out to catch falling leaves or feed the fish, and capture natural shots～ The carved flower windows in the long corridor make perfect frames. Mom and kids sitting side by side watching the scenery create an instant cozy vibe～ 🎨 Little Surprise There’s a calligraphy experience area in the garden. Try holding a brush with the kids to write big characters. Though wobbly, they’re very focused～ In the cultural shop, the kids picked a small fan and bookmark with a lotus pattern, saying they want to be a “Little Jiangnan Gentleman” 😂 💡 Tips for Taking Kids Out: ✔️ The garden is small and can be toured in 1-2 hours, perfect for young children ✔️ There’s a cotton candy stall at the entrance, a nice reward after the visit ✔️ Closed on Mondays, don’t come empty-handed; after 3 PM the light is softer for photos
