【Summer Colorful Forest】
"I don't know the end of spring even when it rains, but it's summer when it's sunny." Saying goodbye to spring, summer comes one after another, wrapped in a not-so-happy heat, which makes people caught off guard. The great heat of July is still scorching hot. When you were still asleep, the sun came out early, and at noon the sun was more like a raging fire, hanging over your head and scorching mercilessly. People don't want to escape from the heat wave all the time, looking forward to a cool surprise in summer. Chengde Bashang Grassland has beautiful colorful forests, and the 16° coolness in summer has attracted many people, and I am one of them. I drove all the way, and my heart was full of joy. The colorful forest in summer is full of green eyes, patches of green meadows, dense birch forests, the wind blows slowly, mixed with the fragrance of flowers, and the air is full of happiness.
The colorful forest in summer is also colorful at night. The forest night light show on Tianjing Lake continues to spread the joy of the day. The melodious music and flashing lights are so wonderful that it makes people linger.

[Seven hours of self-driving]
Shenxiangu Colorful Forest Resort is located in the Bashang Grassland (the first grassland in northern Beijing), at the junction of the westernmost end of Chengde City, Hebei Province and the Inner Mongolia Grassland. In order to go to the colorful forest for summer vacation, the trip that I am looking forward to does not need an alarm clock to remind me. I woke up early in the morning, departed from Shijiazhuang at 5 o'clock, passed through the edge of Zhangjiakou, and arrived at the colorful forest for about 7 hours by car. Some friends came from Beijing and Tianjin. It takes about 4 hours to reach by car.
After checking in, it was already past 12 noon. After eating the Bashang food with the characteristics of Colorful Forest, we rested in the hotel for 2 hours. After all, we got up early in the morning, and then drove for 7 hours to sort out our mental state. Start the cool tour of the Bashang Grassland.
Before arriving at the gate of the scenic spot, there is a long cement road at the entrance. If you are not defeated by drowsiness when you come, you will definitely be able to see the unique beauty of the grassland sky road. The sky is high and the land is wide. Meadows, woods, hillsides and rotating windmills form a complete and beautiful picture album of grasslands. There are different scenery every time you walk. You can't help but stop the car and blend into the beautiful Page after page of beauty.
【Colorful Forest Night】
The good time of travel cannot be wasted, the colorful forest at night is still very lively. The forest night tourist area with a total length of about 2000 meters is a night tour project of the colorful forest scenic spot. The tour route starts from the entrance of the scenic spot to Tianjing Lake. Walking on the jungle boardwalk is like being in a secret jungle. The combination of light and shadow makes the forest night have a dreamy color.
Walking on the colorful avenue, lights of different colors flicker, creating a wonderful scene such as a starry sky, a pool of water, and a flower border, just like flowers in a mirror and the moon in water.
The final highlight is the dreamy music and light show of Tianjing Lake, with huge wooden stands and super wide field of view, the music and light show that lasts for about 40 minutes is extremely shocking. The dreamlike feeling is not just talking, it is really the satisfaction of being there. Every piece of music echoes in the silent valley, and every beam of light shines in different colors in the dark night, making you confused whether the light is moving with the music or the music is echoing the light.
【Diverse Jungle Tribe】
The next day’s itinerary is worth looking forward to. The gate of the scenic spot opens in the morning, and the welcome ceremony has already begun at the entrance of the scenic spot. Handsome men and women in national costumes welcome guests from afar with unique rituals, presenting hada, dismounting wine, and good wishes from all over the world. Start now.
The hall is full of people, and the accents should be tourists from Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei. There are many local specialties in the center of the hall, such as pot tea, beef gluten, beef jerky, milk strips and black tartary buckwheat, etc. These things now have a lot of benefits and discounts, and now it is time to implement targeted poverty alleviation for these enterprises Policy, the purchase of these products, not to mention the discount than before, you can enjoy the activity of playing colorful forest for free when you reach a certain amount, which is very value-for-money. Moreover, most of these products cannot be bought outside, so it is a particularly good gift for relatives and friends.
You need to take a small sightseeing train through the ticket gate to reach the tourist area. When you return, it depends on your mood. You can walk out while playing. If you are tired from walking, you can stop the small train on the way back at any time. It is recommended to make the last stop, and then go back while playing.
Jungle Tribe is the terminal of the small train. On the left side there is a wooden plank road that goes straight up to the clouds. The highest point of the "Yunting" on the top is about 1800 meters above sea level, with a total of 516 steps. It is not very tiring to climb up, and the scenery on the top of the mountain is really beautiful. The endless hills and grasslands, the lush forest of 10,000 mu, and the Tianjing Lake in the distance are faintly visible, giving you the visual pleasure of seeing all the small mountains.
Opposite the Yunting plank road is a stimulating glass air corridor, which has an interesting name - "footsteps on the treetops".
Interesting name, interesting design, compared with those glass corridors built on the edge of the cliff, it also has a sense of horror and excitement, and the treetops jumping out around and under the feet add interest and imagination, and feel like a martial arts movie , light work ladder cloud vertical, tree tops floating casually~
The design of the bathroom next to it is particularly conspicuous, with colorful wall bricks, which looks like an upside-down house.
Horse riding is a must experience when you come to the grassland. Although the horses on the dam are not particularly famous, they are still docile when you ride them. Some horses are very timid. If you pass by them, they will They walk around you nervously; there are also horses in groups of 3 and 2, and those who are close walk together, and those who are not familiar with each other are mutually exclusive, which is very interesting.
Walking to the end is a natural forest of flowers and seas. There is an internet celebrity bird's nest suitable for punching in and taking pictures. It is very suitable to take a punching in of the bird's nest on the grassland, and there are pleasant bird calls echoing around.
【Beautiful Tianjing Lake】
For the food at noon, I booked the Western-style cold meal of Tianjing Lake in advance. From the jungle tribe to Tianjing Lake, you can take a small train or walk a section of the boardwalk. The former is relaxing, and the latter can see a few more different scenery.
This section of the boardwalk is covered by a lush birch forest, and it has a beautiful name - birch reflecting the sun. The wooden plank road runs through it, with mottled light and shadow along the way. There are many rest pavilions and viewing platforms in the middle, where you can take a rest. The dazzling sunlight weakens its enthusiasm through the birch trees swaying in the wind, and warms the The face, together with the breeze that shuttles through the forest, is like a dream.
Tianjing Lake is a small man-made viewing lake. It is low-lying and flat, surrounded by dense forests, and the lake is unusually calm, like a mirror, hence the name. The blue sky, white clouds, green trees, and fallen yellow leaves all reflect the most beautiful colors, making it difficult to distinguish which is the reflection and which is nature.
Agate Lake is separated from Tianjing Lake by a dam, and the scenery is even worse. The lake surface is crystal clear like a piece of natural agate, lying flat in the depths of the beautiful grassland. How can we have a perfect photo with Agate Hu? The net red water bed is naturally not to be missed~
Overlooking from a height, Tianjing Lake and Agate Lake are like twin brothers, one fat and one thin, connected in the middle and never separated. Or it is more like the precious jade left by the gods in the mortal world, with beautiful colors, wrapped in nature, and tied around the waist with a ribbon.
There are countless small mushrooms in the dense pine forest. Walking on the plank road, you will find that many tourists have found "treasures" on the ground. The cute little mushrooms are edible, and they spring out of the ground densely like bamboo shoots after a rain. There are clusters of clusters, and you can pick a lot in a short time.
【Manchu Cultural Park】
Chengde Fengning is a Manchu Autonomous County. You can learn a lot of Manchu cultural knowledge in the colorful forest. At the starting point of the plank road or the end of the return journey, there is a Manchu Cultural Park.
The Manchu Cultural Park is presented in the form of Fengning Manchu courtyard, with a total of seven aspects of content display.

In this season, there is a sea of small flowers in the innermost part of the cultural garden. The pink tenderness is the unique color of Ganzhimei, and the yard is full of layers, and the fragrance is tangy.
,,【Meng Meng Da Zoo】
The zoo in the Colorful Forest is not big, there are no ferocious carnivores, but mainly cute and docile animals, including black swans, peacocks, camels, ponies, lambs, bunnies, etc., suitable for families with parents and children. Children interact with small animals.
The more obedient animals are free-range animals, and you can have close contact with them. Cows, sheep, camels, and horses are relatively docile animals. They are common in rural areas, but not in ordinary cities. Children follow them everywhere. Very happy.
【Colorful Sky Road】
There is a secret place in the back mountain of the colorful forest. It is a bit difficult to find without a guide, and you need a four-wheel drive to go up. Fortunately, the colorful forest has this service. The reason why it is called a secret place is because there is a large section of dirt road that is not easy to walk, with water and mud, ditches and slopes, the performance of the car is good, and the driver's driving skills are also skilled.
There is wind on the top of the mountain, looking at the road when you came, winding on the ridge, with green meadows on both sides, mixed with flowers of countless colors, it is really like a colorful sky road extending to the endless horizon. A wide field of vision, sweeping everything that the eyes can see, the most beautiful grassland scenery is like this, the meaning of travel is simple, the wind blows the mountains and flowers are blooming, and time is treated gently.
