Things to do in Hengshui

Take bus No. 18 from Hengshui Railway Station and get off at Garden Expo Park Station. It takes about half an hour to get there. After entering the park, you can take a boat. The first boat leaves at 8:50 and mainly goes to Plum Blossom Island and Sansheng Island.

This is a very cost-effective scenic spot. You can interact closely with small animals and even bring your own vegetables (carrots) to experience the fun of feeding them. The parking lot is large, and parking costs 10 RMB with no time limit.

The Jizhou Ancient City Site is located in the Beiguan Village of Jizhou Town, Jizhou City. It is a section of earthen wall in the northwest of the Han Dynasty Jizhou Ancient City, extending from northeast to southwest, with a total length of 4,500 meters and a distribution area of ​​2.25 million square meters. The ditches along the west and north sides of the Han Dynasty City Site are the moats of the original city.

Sun Jing Academy is very worthwhile to study here. It is the first etiquette and filial piety study base. The traditional etiquette and cultural connotation is really great. The decoration is very classical, as if you have traveled back to ancient times.

The food street here is a bit quiet. It is between Heping West Road and Jixin West Road. You can walk in from the small road next to Jixin Hotel to the south. There are only a handful of restaurants inside now. There is a hot pot restaurant at the intersection, an unnamed restaurant further in, a Shuangxing spareribs restaurant that is very good, and a Panger hot pot restaurant. They are all fly restaurants, but very down-to-earth.

The scholar said that Guide Li took him to the National Museum of China and the Forbidden City! The explanations of the national treasures at the National Museum were clear and organized, and the architectural details and historical anecdotes of the Forbidden City were explained in detail. Guide Li has a wide range of knowledge, is humorous, and explains history from a child's perspective, making the entire experience fantastic and a truly unforgettable trip to Beijing!

We’re avid theme park goers and love to try out new parks all around the world. Having done Universal in Orlando, we had to try out the Beijing park whilst we were here and it did not disappoint. First of all, the price is great value, worked out around £50 per person which is really cheap compared to Orlando and the rides are almost identical. Now don’t get me wrong, we did all of the shows and rides and at times it was a bit confusing because we don’t speak Chinese but we still thoroughly enjoyed them as we’d seen most of them all before but in English so it was good to compare. The food was also a mixed bag in terms of it being very overpriced compared to if you were out for a meal or grabbing some food in the centre of Beijing but it’s a once in a lifetime trip for us so still worth the money!

Five-star review! Thank you, Director Li, for your dedication, patience, and thorough explanations. We were originally scheduled to board at 8:00 AM from Lao She Teahouse near Qianmen, but considering it was too early, the subway transfer would be necessary, and the walking would take time, I considered getting a refund. Director Li learned that I was taking Metro Line 8 from Muxiyuan and directed me to the Beitucheng station, allowing us to meet at 8:50 AM. Following Director Li's directions, I boarded the bus at Beitucheng. Today's Great Wall visit went very smoothly and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Thank you, Director Li!

On a sunny day, I came to Hengshui Museum with anticipation. The museum is located in the Hengshui Cultural and Art Center. The building is magnificent and eye-catching. Walking into the museum, it seems to travel through time and space. The Jizhou Ding in the prologue hall is particularly eye-catching, symbolizing the long history of Hengshui as the head of the nine states. Visiting along the exhibition hall, every cultural relic carries a heavy story. In the historical and cultural exhibition hall, I saw cultural relics from ancient times to modern times, and learned about the evolution of Hengshui's system and cultural origins; in the exhibition hall of celebrities of all dynasties, the deeds of many outstanding figures made me deeply admire; the red culture exhibition hall made me feel the revolutionary spirit of the people of Hengshui. What impressed me most was the exhibition hall of intangible cultural heritage and folk culture, which displayed Hengshui's traditional skills such as paper cutting and inner painting, which were exquisite and amazing. The museum's display method is also very modern. Through the combination of physical display, real scene construction and digital display, I feel as if I am on the scene and feel the charm of Hengshui culture. After visiting the museum, I have a deeper understanding of Hengshui's history and culture, and I love this city even more. Hengshui Museum is not only a hall that displays history, but also a place where people can feel cultural inheritance and innovation.
