What are the places worth visiting around Beijing? My first reaction was Miyun, Gubei Water Town, Shidu and so on. What else is new and good? I heard from friends that there is an Ice and Fire Festival in Fengningba not far from Beijing, which is lively and grand. You can play with snow and ice, and you can ride a horse. Doesn't sound too good to be true. If you don't want to go too far to Xuexiang, but if you want to have these things to play around Beijing, then China Horse Town is the best choice for comprehensive.

two. recommended itinerary

The first day: From Beijing to Mazhen, after arriving at the hotel at noon, take a break for lunch, about 1:00 pm:

Day 2: Opening Ceremony of Dancing Horse World-Royal Stables-Small House Recruitment-Square Ice Hot Pot-Lunch at Mengma Restaurant-Return to Beijing.

This trip is a two-day, one-night itinerary. On the first day, we stay at the Dream Horse Hotel at noon, and head straight to the World of Dancing Horses after lunch. If you think Horse Town is just a snowy version of Disneyland, then you underestimate it. We often talk about a lush tree, not how it flourishes and greens, but how it takes root in the soil and is intertwined. When you come to Ma Town, you must not miss to experience the cultural customs and historical context here. Knowing it, you will love it more and resonate with it.

Entering the world of horse dancing, the first stop worth seeing is: the Marvin Museum, which displays many horse-related objects. Different styles of saddles, bridles, reins, girths, pedals~ and some supplements of historical and cultural knowledge.

Opposite the Marvin Museum is a very modern VR pavilion. Entering the lobby, you can see the skeleton of a huge horse, and the VR next to it can experience some interactive games related to horses. It is the perfect combination of history and modernity.

There are also many horse-related theme stores on the way. If you like horses, you can take a small doll home.

The intangible cultural heritage poverty alleviation manual workshop includes some purely hand-spliced ​​wooden products, as well as their local characteristics of Fengning: Fengning paper-cut. At first, it was used to strengthen the paper strips of the window paper, and later developed into colorful window grilles and red-based paper-cuts. Fengning is a county inhabited by Manchurians, and many paper-cut artists are Manchurians. Therefore, Fengning's paper-cutting has a strong Manchu style in terms of subject matter and content. In addition, there are Fengning cloth paste paintings. It has been popular in the Fengning area since the Qing Dynasty. Artists interspersed and integrated painting, calligraphy, embroidery, applique, paper-cutting and other artistic techniques and techniques in this complicated process, making the cloth paste paintings full of three-dimensional Feeling ready to move, very similar to the relief in sculpture.

The Manchu Wedding Hall saw some objects with a sense of age, such as windmills used to peel rice and wheat when technology was not developed in the past, radios, bamboo baskets, including sedan chairs, large flowered quilts for daily use, and children's cradles. If it happens to match a retro school uniform at this time, you can immediately think of the song of the new pants: Eri Buddy is here now. At this moment, whether it is taking a picture in the mirror or taking a photo with these retro objects, it will be a good experience and commemoration.

Walking all the way in, there will be mirror palace, haunted house, live CS and other entertainment items. The Palace of Mirrors is very interesting and worth experiencing. There are multiple mirrors inside. Sometimes you don’t know which mirror is in front of you, and you will accidentally bump into the mirror. If you want to go out, you need some tips and wisdom! I just gave up on the haunted house and stood at the door and dared not go in. I heard that there are no real people in it, so it's actually okay. If you are a brave friend, you can try it!

Along the way, I met a blacksmith. The old man was forging cast iron leisurely and contentedly. The slow time was enviable. At this time, I thought of Mr. Mu Xin's words: "In the past, the sun became slower, cars, horses, and mail were all slow, and there was only enough to love one person in a lifetime." He was very embarrassed when taking pictures of him. Feel the fresh breath of life here.

We also saw some interesting gadgets, such as rubbings, rulers, and wooden boards used by private school teachers to punish students in the old days. All of the above can take half a day if you browse carefully.

Continue to walk to the majestic statue of the God of War Zhao Yun riding on a horse that you can see outside the park. In fact, it is a shooting project hall. It is free for the first time with the ticket. You can choose one of the bow and arrow hall and the shooting hall (5 arrows or 5 rounds of bullets) to experience the charge again (charge price: 20 yuan / 8 sticks 50 yuan / 25 sticks), the venue is very large .

Going further in, passing Ma Street, you will come to the important entertainment area of ​​this Ice and Fire Festival. Entertainment Snow World has entertainment facilities such as play snow field, fun snow track, ice car slide, etc. Children prefer the long ice track, shuttling in the ice and snow castle, a ski tire with sufficient stability, children sit in the groove of the tire In the middle, it is safe and secure, and there is no need to worry about safety issues. Even the uncles and aunts are happy with this two-person project. One person is holding the rope, and the other is lying on the tire, looking inexplicably cute.

Adults will prefer the sport of extreme speed. There are several snow tracks from the top of the mountain to the bottom of the mountain. Sitting in the tires, you can experience the thrill of sliding from high to low. The scene is a little exciting. But don’t be scared by the seemingly thrilling appearance. I have actually experienced it and know that although there is enough slope, the safety measures are also good enough. The tires are very stable and the grooves are deep enough. There are basically no cases of sprinting down from the top of the mountain. Fall, well worth the experience for adults!

There is also a snow sports area. Snowmobiles, snow tanks, snow karts, snow bikes, ice slides to play as you like. Among them is dog sledding. Many of the above items are very test of directional control. On the snow, the friction force becomes smaller, so we can only control the steering wheel more carefully and carefully. They all fly up and experience the fun of drifting in an instant.

At 4:00 p.m., come to the theater next to the exit of the horse dancing world, and the performance of full rhyme and riding style will begin soon. Manyun Qifeng is the most unexpected place in my whole trip. When passing by Manyun Qifeng, I was completely pulled in by my friends. At that time, my heart was: who am I, where am I, and why should I come in? I want to go out and play in the snow.

But when the performance started, I was deeply attracted. This is a big horseback fantasy show. The combination of equestrian skills, acrobatics and dance is breathtaking.

The five chapters "Shenhuo Jitiandi" are full of shaman culture, light effects, and costumes, all of which make people feel the cultural atmosphere at that time. "All the people in the village are happy", "Xuan Haidongqing", "Wei Guozhan Heroes" and "Praying for the World" each have story chapters, including fascinating love stories and dazzling horseback skills. The acrobats who perform are truly admirable.

Without thousands of practice and absolute trust, I would never dare to make such a dangerous move. There are also acrobats who can come and go freely on horseback. At most, when two horses drive side by side, there can be 6 acrobats on horseback at the same time. What skill is required. It is precisely because of such firm determination that they can show their love for horseback culture, which is awe-inspiring.


It was the first time to watch an acrobatic performance live, without editing or special effects. The real shock visible to the naked eye is right in front of you. I sincerely lament that this is relying on technology to make a living, and I also sincerely lament that such a horseback culture is really worth continuing and spreading. The most impressive clips are that a very young acrobat jumps from a high altitude with the help of his teammates on the right to his teammates on the left.

As night falls, Ma Town will have a pure blue sky that is rarely seen in other places. The kind of blue without pollution and impurities. At this time, the streets and squares are all lit up.

The electronic music carnival is the end of the day. At this time, the bonfire is lit, and everyone is also lit. On this night, everyone sings and dances together ~ forget about fatigue and troubles. Next to it is the ice sculpture, which is colorful and beautiful under the light.

The fireworks show of "Dreams as Horses" lit up the entire sky in just five minutes. Meteor-like sparks fall straight from the sky, waiting for people to make a wish, and the world of eucalyptus and viburnum reappears in the night in the garden of Tiangong.

The ice and snow version of Disney is a good place for winter leisure and entertainment that is worth bringing children and family to play together.

Don't sleep late the next morning. There will be an opening ceremony at the gate of the Dancing Horse World from 10:00 to 10:20 in the morning. The repertoire of the opening ceremony is "Song of Ice and Fire", which tells the story of misunderstanding, reconciliation and common development between the ice queen and the living prince. The show is suitable for watching with children. Believe they will love this story of love and understanding.

Afterwards, we went to visit the Royal Stables. The Royal Stables has gathered many famous horses in the world, such as the most handsome gypsy horse, whose flowing mane and hoof hair are its distinctive symbols. I also saw the bloody BMW that is often said in TV dramas. Tall and straight, heroic. It's a pity that it's winter, otherwise you can experience whether it really flows like blood when it sweats.

Some kinds of horses are not afraid of people, and when I held out my hand, it stuck out its head for me to pet. Very docile. All horses here can be ridden. Summer price: 150 yuan for a cute horse ride, 200 yuan for a famous horse ride (one round of the famous horse square) Winter price: 50 yuan for a cute horse ride, 80 yuan for a famous horse ride. The price is super favorable ~ Friends who like horse riding should not miss it.

From 11:00 to 11:20 in the morning, recruit a son-in-law in Arima Town, Majie "A Hundred Years of Dreams of Recruiting Relatives in a Small Building" + theme tour. If you are lucky, you can also receive the hydrangea abandoned by the bride, the girl will receive the joy, and the boy will receive the peach blossom.

Of course, I didn't play enough ice entertainment yesterday, so I took the time to play again and again, who told him that he didn't want money.

When it comes to hot pot, everyone will definitely think of the spicy Sichuan-Chongqing hot pot, but at the Ice and Fire Festival in Mazhen, China, there is a new "net celebrity" ice sculpture hot pot, eating hot pot on the ice sculpture at minus 28 degrees, experiencing the dual world of ice and fire, the more you eat The more refreshing, it is definitely an experience that will never be forgotten in a lifetime!

In addition, if you come to China's Mazhen Tourist Resort to participate in the "Happy Ice and Fire Festival Passionate Hot Pot Banquet" challenge, you can receive a free food or drink, and you may also get rich prizes!

The ice and snow version of Disney is a good place for winter leisure and entertainment that is worth bringing children and family to play together.

three. A must-have to relieve travel fatigue: a hotel.

One of the most important aspects of every trip is accommodation. Because of the travel environment, complexity, and play intensity vary. For a day of fun outing while relaxing, the residence is like a power supply station. Cleanliness and comfort come first, followed by spaciousness, class and elegance. For places with beautiful enough scenery, or the limiting factors of economic development, I often lower the standard.

I didn't have high expectations for this stay, but this trip to Mazhen changed my stereotype of Bashang. It turns out that the construction here has been so comprehensive and perfect, with enough entertainment facilities and stylish indoor resting places.

The Mengma Hotel, built according to the five-star standard, is the first stop that exceeds expectations. The hall is decorated with horses, and the bookshelves are tall and dense, spacious and clean. In the hall, you can sit here for an afternoon, have a cup of coffee, read a book, and spend half a day in a daze. The number of sofas is sufficient. If you are in groups of friends or family, you can even come to a warm and interesting salon. A good design concept is to design a reasonable space in the right place to accommodate guests comfortably.

The overall area of ​​the hotel is relatively long, so multiple elevators are carefully designed, and guests can choose the elevator that is closer to their room for diversion. Even at the peak of the flow of people, there is no need to worry about the long waiting time and the problem of crowded people.

The guest rooms are clean and tidy, not losing to the five-star hotels in first-tier cities. A few places that I love to pay attention to: the toilet and the bathroom are separated, and the bathroom is also separated. very clean. The spirit of some Japanese-style design houses is meticulous and complete. It is also equipped with a large-screen TV, a large hair dryer, and bathrobes of commendable quality and thickness.

Other infrastructure: There is a children's entertainment area, which is suitable for playing with children after playing outside. There are some soft facilities without worrying about safety. There are also some hands-on projects that are entertaining and educational.

Price reference: Mengma Hotel and White Horse Hotel are the two most worthwhile luxury hotels in Ma Town. Among them, Mengma Hotel is a five-star hotel with the theme of Tibetan culture. The current winter price for a double room/standard room is about 600+ RMB/night . Baima Hotel is a four-star hotel with the theme of Mongolian culture. The current winter price for a double room/standard room is about 500+ RMB/night. Both include breakfast for 2 persons. It is the best choice for visiting Mazhen.

4. Gourmet articles

As a foodie, gourmet food is of course essential when you go to a new place. The Mengma Hotel where I stayed provided a buffet breakfast with a very rich variety, including noodles, pumpkin pies, sausages, and bacon. I was pleasantly surprised that there was also a toaster, which would satisfy bread lovers. The watermelon in the after-meal fruit is very sweet, and you can still eat sweet watermelon in winter, which starts a good mood for the day.

There are several shops in the food street that are worthy of everyone's experience: "The Best Roasted Lamb in the World", "Bashang Coarse Grain Restaurant", "Manchu Eight Big Bowls", "Big Khan Copper Hot Pot", "Single Horse Bar"

The No. 1 roasted lamb in the world is the no.1 food category in my heart during this trip. Roasted whole lamb is a delicacy for entertaining distinguished guests on Bashang.

I have eaten the roasted black-headed lamb in Xinjiang, and the roasted whole lamb from farmers around Beijing. This roasted whole lamb in Bashang is definitely on the list. The roasting procedure is exquisite, and there is a special sheep-raising ceremony. Six procedures for eating sheep: roasting for the first time, eating the skin. At this time, the skin of the sheep is crispy, and the entrance is delicious, without a trace of mutton smell. It is marinated and grilled with special secret ingredients on the dam.

After eating the first layer, it will be baked again. At this time, the meat is eaten for the second time, and the outside is burnt and the inside is tender. The fat on the surface of the sheep turns into oil and flows all over the whole sheep, so the fresh fragrance of the whole sheep floats out. Eat lamb chops three times, the aroma is overflowing. Four eat leg of lamb, the meat is thick and mellow. Five eat skewers, the meat is tender and juicy. Six-drinking mutton soup is rich in nutrition ~ It is difficult to think whether it is delicious or not after multiple procedures. Because of the exquisite materials used and the exquisite baking, even I, who seldom dips in mutton, are full of praise, saying that I will never resist mutton in the future. The grill is so good that it is very tasty even without dipping. It is highly recommended to go to Mazhen for five-star food.

5. Tickets

Adult ticket for Dancing Horse World Theme Park: 200 yuan (you can go back and forth to the park multiple times within 48 hours)
Ordinary seat ticket for Man Yun Riding Fantasy Show: 200 yuan

Travel Tips:

Due to the low temperature in Mazhen in winter, the lowest temperature reaches minus 20 degrees Celsius. Therefore, you must take warm measures before going. The weather was fine when we went there, the sun was shining during the day, and the temperature was acceptable, but it was very cold at night, and our ears were about to freeze. Earmuffs, gloves, scarves are essential. Basic dressing collocation: thermal underwear + sweater + down jacket + warm leggings + thick pants. Most of the projects are outdoor projects, so don't forget to keep warm for the sake of beauty.

Also be sure to wear sunglasses. The reflective ability of snow in the sun is too strong, and sometimes it will be uncomfortable to look at it for too long.

2 days 1 night itinerary. In order to travel lightly, you don't need to bring too many clothes, 1 set is enough.

The two-day and one-night trip to China’s Ma Town is over. The winter Bashang is covered in silver and is extremely enchanting. Although I can’t take away the beautiful scenery, its beauty will always stay in my mind.

Come to China Horse Town and experience the ultimate experience of ice and fire!
