foreword
When the high-speed train arrived at the station, mixed with the hot air of Beijing, there was a trace of restlessness.
In Beijing's hot summer, people can't stop sweating in the stuffy weather.
In summer, the surrounding resorts that people in Beijing love to go to: Gubei Water Town
I meet again.
The third Gubei Water Town is also full of expectations. What are the different experiences of such a destination that continues to create surprises this time?
The journey of coolness in the hot summer begins.
The Simatai Great Wall was praised by the famous Great Wall expert Professor Luo Zhewen: "The Great Wall of China is the largest in the world, and the Simatai Great Wall is also the largest of the Great Wall in China." Looking at the Great Wall from a distance, it looks like a winding dragon, hovering between the mountains. Climbing to the Simatai Great Wall, you will suddenly see the scenery of the northern country. Climb to the top and enjoy the beauty of nature.
What is different from the previous two times is that this trip to Beijing Gubei Water Town can overlook the entire gentle and romantic town from the perspective of God.
Overlooking the Simatai Great Wall from the perspective of God, it is steep and great.
It is the first time to experience the Hangu Mountain Villa Hotel, the Great Wall in the distance, the hotel in the mountain road, all the exquisiteness, all indicate that staying here is happiness.
At night, it is a romantic night in Gubei Water Town. In the church on the top of the mountain, the hearty voice of the choir always makes people full of gratitude, and sometimes with a touch of sadness.
Touring the Great Wall at night, watching drone performances, and those lights for passers-by make the Great Wall warmer in summer nights.
The ingenious cruise breakfast, in a refreshing morning, let people enjoy the cleanliness of Gubei Water Town.
Day 1 Hangu Villa, Natural Valley
I have stayed in many hotels in Gubei Water Town, and this is the first time I have stayed in Hangu Villa. Located in the Langu area of Gubei Water Town, it has 8 buildings and 72 rooms.
This aerial photo should be the most intuitive representation of the location of the hotel.
The hotel surrounded by greenery makes people feel comfortable walking in it.
The hotel is surrounded by mountains and rivers, with a quiet environment and an open-air swimming pool. Combining the unique natural features of the town and the elements of the Great Wall, the hotel is committed to creating a holiday life that combines leisure and health, and creating a stay experience featuring tranquility and seclusion.
The Japanese-style decoration layout makes people feel at home, and it brings people closer to the warmth of the room.
Looking at the Simatai Great Wall in the distance from the terrace of the room, the perfect combination of mountains and lines, and the clean valley are worth staying in the hotel in a daze.
Surrounded by such greenery, the newly launched Wild Luxury Tent Camp is loved by many children. Dwell in the sea of clouds in the forest, and get in touch with nature skin to skin. Enjoy the food and see the scenery.
In the bathroom between the dense forests, the window is the lounge. After visiting, I really want to live in it.
I personally like Hangu Hotel very much. Here you can truly return to nature, stay away from the hustle and bustle, and enjoy the beautiful scenery of the mountains in the morning and evening.
Mucheng Hotel, blank aesthetics
Walking up the road is the newly built Mucheng Hotel and Huotang Hotel in Gubei Water Town. This time, I am also fortunate to visit these two newly built hotels. They have different styles and different feelings.
I saw someone say before: "In a valley, in a hotel, I felt many times that I was not looking at the forest. Some days, I felt that the trees were looking at me and talking to me. And I , I was listening there..." This is Mucheng Hotel.
The huge floor-to-ceiling windows are embedded in the exterior wall of the building, and the surrounding scenery can be softly projected on the glass, and the appearance will also produce different expressions depending on the viewing angle.
The round window above the head streams bright skylight, and the unique design of the light well also adds interest to Mucheng Hotel.
The side windows on the inner wall optimize the lighting design. This small square window forms a subtle relationship with the outdoor space, revealing the pure sky and changing clouds, creating a sense of ritual of seclusion in the mountains.
The room is adjacent to the mountain, returning to simplicity and simplicity
Each guest room has huge French windows open to the summer sun, and the magnificent scenery of the countryside unfolds outside the window like a scroll, with mountains, bushes, trails, streams...every nuance in the room radiates outwards. A profound and simple beauty.

The open terraces allow us to move vertically and experience different scales of the surrounding landscape. In the valley with four distinct seasons, the sunshine pouring down from the clouds, and the haze surrounding the mountains are the daily life of mountain dwelling.
Through food, return to nature, get close to the land, the seasonal gifts of wild vegetables, and the uniquely arranged dining environment, create a feast of "memory".
Looking at the green outside the big floor-to-ceiling window, the waiter brought tea at the moment, and the shutter was just pressed. With such an interesting photo, I also look forward to experiencing the mountain life in Mucheng when I meet again with Gubei Water Town next time.
Huotang Hotel, ingenious
The nearest hotel under the Great Wall adds to the imagination, like a long scroll of "Taoyuan" telling the love, not only that, it seems to be entrusting the good wishes of guarding the territory for the visitors.
The perspective of the overall construction is scattered, the central axis is clear, the palace-style enclosure is well-defined, and the unique charm of the guest house is transformed by light and shadow.
Huotang Hotel is inspired by the combination of "Hakka Tulou" and "Great Wall", paved with history and culture. The exterior structure is simple, and the building seems to be built with adobe bricks as walls, but it is actually fine everywhere.
Although there are only 18 unique guest rooms, elegance and wisdom coexist, and the walls are replaced by floor-to-ceiling windows, making it feel like nature; lying in the Ruoda bathtub, you can have a panoramic view of the winding Great Wall, which is shocking.
Tall houses, round wells, and halls reveal the characteristics of Hakka earth buildings everywhere, and maintain the artistic style of elegance, simplicity, and ethnic integration...
At night, listening to the mountain springs playing, insects chirping and frogs jumping, the unfettered comfort, and a little more liking.
Looking forward to meeting again!
Riyue Island Square, a wonderful encounter
After visiting Mucheng and Huotang Hotel, after resting for a while, I went to stroll all the way to Riyue Island Square, and encountered those wonderful and interesting shapes and blocks on the way. Since this is the third time I have come here, I am familiar with it.
Every autumn, here is the favorite place for tourists, the red leaves are all over the wall, and the popularity is overwhelming.
Red leaves are the characteristic of autumn in Gubei Water Town, so come to Gubei to see the red leaves.
Riyue Island Square is currently performing lively lion dance, face changing, and bicycle juggling performances, which instantly attracts people's attention and is very lively. Gubei Water Town has made great efforts in tourists' experience, and various interesting activities and performances continue.
Dinner was pizza at the city gate in Riyue Island Square. After a good meal, it started to rain.
There are a lot of food for children here, which is also very suitable for children, and the dessert at the end is also very good.
Church on the top of the mountain, singing melodiously
Gradually the rain stopped, and I went to the church on the top of the mountain as planned, to see the night view and listen to the choir.
There will always be something very kind, and walking with familiar environment, delicious food, and lush greenery is warmth. The cool air after the rain is filled with the fragrance of the valley.
The church on the top of the mountain, amidst the melodious singing, is full of gratitude, but also with a touch of sadness, rushing towards the face. On such a cool night, walking in the quiet and beautiful night of Gubei makes people feel comfortable. For a vacation in the suburbs, Gubei is the first choice.
After walking around and filming, I came to the late-night canteen in the snack street at night, and I fell in love with you tonight.
It's those unexpected encounters with interesting things that find stories you didn't care about.
The place where an ancient lamp is lit is where all the stories take place.
Day 2 Cruise Breakfast, Quiet Gubei
In the morning, board the boat at the pier of Wuzhen Hui Hotel, and experience the newly launched breakfast cruise in Gubei Water Town. Before I came to Gubei Water Town, I took a boat to visit the ancient town. This time, in the quiet Gubei Water Town in the early morning, it is also a special mood to experience the cruise breakfast.
The night view of Gubei Water Town is lovely, and the quiet morning of Gubei Water Town is not to be missed when you come to Gubei. Get up early and stroll in it. This should be the best time.
Insects, birds, and water, take a boat through Gubei Water Town. In such a charming morning, while enjoying the beautiful scenery, you can also experience the beauty of this time.
All the tender feelings are like water, but they can't resist the beautiful existence. Different experiences and feelings also make our strange travel stories.
Traditional culture, charming
The third Gubei still came to the dyeing workshop, I like to see the color of the Chinese style, and I also like the images shot here.
Gubei Water Town also does a very good job in inheriting and promoting traditional culture. Shochu, dyeing workshops, shadow puppets, etc. are all inherited here.
Strolling along the way, there are too many beautiful sights, and the hawthorn ice cream in Gubei Water Town is something I can’t forget, which is still a place where you have to check in every time you come.
Escorts and darts are common descriptions in martial arts novels. "Receive people's money, protect people from disasters", an understatement in martial arts novels or movies, but it does not fully describe the hard work of the bodyguards in their lives. In Zhenyuan Escort Bureau, facing these bloody historical relics, you can learn about the real life records of the bodyguards, such as negotiating prices in the conference hall, practicing martial arts on plum blossom piles, pushing dart carts, and flexing their fists. As well as the personal story of Zhang Zhenyuan, the escort of Zhenyuan Escort, and the history of the development of the Escort in my country.
Hundreds of years ago, Gubeikou was located in the throat fortress of the capital, where the Zhenghuang Banner guarded Gubei Xiongguan. Wandering in the Eight Banners Guild Hall, dreaming back to the Qing Dynasty, where soldiers are dispatched in the school field. Here, you can learn about the folk customs of this once glorious nation on horseback.
Living by the mountains, overlooking the Great Wall
Banshanju is a newer hotel in Gubei Water Town. It takes about 3 minutes to walk down the broken road from the church on the top of the mountain.
The antique door plate of Banshanju looks a bit "shabby", and it is difficult to notice its existence when walking on the road. Only when you enter the hotel, you will find that it is so exquisite.
At present, Banshanju Hotel has 14 guest rooms, including 8 double-bed rooms and 6 family rooms; "Lying in the room and watching the Great Wall" is the most realistic portrayal of Banshanju's room type.
You can take a shuttle bus from Banshanju Hotel to the church on the top of the mountain. In fact, it is very close to walk there.
Summer of Bubbles, Childhood Time
One hour of bubble summer time every afternoon is a fun time for children, enjoy it!
You can have fun here!

Day3 Great Wall Yoga, close to nature
On the third day of breakfast, I got up early and took a car to the west section of the Great Wall, which is not open to the public, where I will have a special experience of Great Wall yoga that is close to nature.
It was the first time I came to the west section of the Great Wall. The ruined simplicity made people feel more natural at once. The sound of birds echoed throughout the valley. Looking at the Simatai Great Wall in the east section, it is really a beautiful scenery.
At the foot of the Great Wall, hunt the aurora of the soul. In the morning, slowly wake up the body from a relaxing yoga, and feel the ultimate experience brought by sports.
