    A great experience! My child loved it. The facilities were new and plentiful. It was clearly well-arranged. The kitchen was fully equipped, and they even provided mosquito repellent patches and other necessities for children – very thoughtful. The owner's recommendations for restaurants and other places to eat were excellent. I'll definitely come back!

    Standing on the Tianjin Eye Ferris wheel, as the cabin slowly rises, the dazzling night view of the entire city gradually unfolds. The Haihe River meanders like a ribbon, with lights and shimmering water reflecting each other, creating a breathtakingly romantic scene. It is a must-visit landmark in Tianjin!

    The National Maritime Museum is definitely worth a visit! We listened to the explanation, but some things were still unfamiliar to the child, and he said he couldn't understand them a bit. So we let him watch a 4D movie for an extra 15 minutes! I asked him if this format with both visuals and explanations was better, and he said that the explanation was more in line with his understanding.

    Most people take photos outside. There's an entrance fee to go inside. Also, from the outside, the exit is obvious, but the entrance isn't. For the average tourist, taking a photo at the exit is enough; there's no need to go in to see the so-called artistic style or how luxurious it is.

    It served as Zhang Xueliang's "temporary palace" in Tianjin. While it might not have been as grand as the residences of some of Tianjin's powerful figures during the Republic of China era, it was fully equipped and an important place for the young marshal to rest and receive guests.

    Who knew a rocking horse could be so creative! The Fantawild Shudao Bus perfectly combines simple rocking with an adventure along the Shudao Road, allowing you to enjoy the scenery while rocking – a truly immersive experience. Kids are dancing with joy, and adults are having a blast too; it's incredibly fun. It's a delightful little highlight of the park, offering a fantastic experience!

    It's great. An annual pass is perfect for two visits. Each time you go, there's no rush; you can stroll around at your own pace. If you miss something, you can go again next time. The 360-degree panoramic view is really good; I recommend it!

    This place is way better than Happy Valley in Beijing!!! The wooden roller coaster was supposed to close at 6 PM, but when I went with my friend at 7 PM, it was still open. It felt like all the rides were still open during the night session, unlike Happy Valley in Beijing where 80% of the attractions are closed.

    A visit to Jingyuan Garden allowed me to understand Puyi's turbulent life and the helplessness and desolation of a dynasty's demise. Every old object in the garden silently tells the story of that special era. Visiting Jingyuan Garden is not just about seeing an old building, but about engaging in a dialogue with history. A truly worthwhile trip!

    The guide took about 30-40 minutes to lead the tour, starting from Minyuan Square and ending at Qingwang Mansion, explaining the history and characteristics of the building. On Friday morning before the National Day holiday, the number of tourists was moderate.
