Dear folks, elders, relatives and friends, I am late, and it is very late. I only present this travel note in the last month when the Expo is about to end. I am really sorry, because the editor has just visited the Expo. At about the same time, I dared to write this travel note, I don’t want to be scolded, word of mouth is guaranteed.
The Expo is too big, and we have to walk more than 20,000 steps every time we go, so we must choose a pair of comfortable sports shoes, otherwise we can only take a battery car for 10 yuan a time.
Let’s first talk about the ticket settings for the Expo: the details are as follows

Our travel notes are written around the "cross-night ticket", because the editor believes that choosing this way to play can get more and better garden experience. You can see more and more beautiful scenery.
Hahahaha without further ado, let’s start serving the dishes
There are a total of 6 gates in the Expo, but tourists often come in and out of gate 1/2/5/6. The first day of this travel note is gate 6, and the route sequence is gate 6-》①Botanical Museum- 》②Longqing Street (Gardening Town)-》③ Yongning Pavilion-》④④Guirui Theater Performing Arts Center-》⑤Fantasy Forest of Light and Shadow
Station ①: Botanical Museum: The Botanical Museum has a construction area of about 10,000 square meters. The architectural design concept is "a rising horizon". The strong vitality of the underground is intuitively presented to the majority of tourists, bringing a strong visual impact. The building of the Botanical Museum is divided into three floors. The first floor is equipped with a tropical plant greenhouse, covering an area of about 3,000 square meters and gathering more than 600 kinds of precious plants. The second floor of the building is a green multi-functional lecture hall, where exhibitions with different themes will be held during the conference. When climbing from the first floor to the second and third floors along the vertical traffic path in the east of the exhibition hall, you can enjoy the ultimate beauty overlooking the crown of mangrove plants from a high altitude. At the same time, the roof design of the Botanical Museum is also a highlight. There are plant-themed coffee bookstores and souvenir shops on the roof viewing platform. The garden has a panoramic view. The home of three giraffes on the roof is also a check-in point for the Expo.
Stop ②: Longqing Street (horticultural town)
When you come to the gardening town, you must go to Longqing Street. Longqing Street reproduces the scene of the old Longqing County (now Yanqing County). Walking on Longqing Street, the reliefs on the wall on the right side of the street tell tourists about the history of this land. This street is also a good place for tourists to rest. There are many snacks, as well as art galleries, design and other crafts. The horticultural town is adjacent to the west side of Longqing Street. More than 700 kinds of flowers bloom quietly in the flower sea area, where pansies, sages and other plants compete for beauty. The town has a wide field of vision, and various buildings are dotted in a large sea of flowers, creating an idyllic scenery against the blue sky. The fragrance of flowers comes from the nostrils, smelling the fragrance of flowers all the way, and being in this endless flower field, full of vitality and colorful, you can feel the harmony between man and nature here.
Stop ③: Yongning Pavilion
Yongning Pavilion is the highest point of the World Horticultural Exhibition Area, with a height of 27.6 meters. The Tiantian Mountain below is made of earth excavated from Guirui Lake. The literati garden composed of plums, orchids, chrysanthemums, bamboos, lotus, etc., creates an artistic conception of "clear springs and stones" through rocks and flowing water in front of the pavilion. "Taiwan" is a tribute to Tao Yuanming, a poet of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and there are also sets related to "Ai Lian Shuo". Create a poetic artistic conception through step by step.
Stop ④: Guirui Theater Performing Arts Center
The Performing Arts Center of Guirui Theater undertakes the function of large-scale events such as the opening and closing ceremonies of the World Horticultural Expo. It is like a butterfly standing on the shore of Guihu Lake. "Heart of the Garden", the performance lasts about 35 minutes. On Friday and Saturday, there will be a resident performance of "Beautiful Homeland", which lasts about 30 minutes. (What needs to be reminded is that to watch the "Heart of the World Garden" light show, you need to make an online reservation on the "Expo2019" App software in advance. After the reservation is successful, you can scan the QR code on your mobile phone to watch the show; Tickets need to be purchased separately for the performance. You cannot watch the performance of "Beautiful Home" only by purchasing admission tickets. You need to purchase tickets + performance tickets to enter the park to watch the performance.)
Station 5: Fantasy Light and Shadow Forest
The Fantasy Light and Shadow Forest is located near Gate 5 of the park, and its content is inspired by the traditional Chinese cultural classic "Shan Hai Jing". Through the application of new technologies such as virtual stereo vision and human-computer interaction, the three-dimensional images of exotic flowers and plants in "Shan Hai Jing" are reproduced. Then we can happily end the first day of the visit, go back to the hotel to rest, and get ready for the next day's runaway.
Then here is a brief introduction to the accommodation situation in Yanqing: I made a hotel distribution map for your reference. The picture information includes the hotel location, name, room rate, and distance from the entrance of the Expo Note: The room rate is taken in September If you can't see the price picture on the 2nd, you can download it to your mobile phone.
Among them, the World Park Hyatt is 5-star, and the Bank of China is 3-star
If you don't want to stay in a hotel, you can also choose a homestay to experience it!
Yanqing County is not big, so if you live in the county, you can choose to take an electric taxi to the Expo on the second day, and you can sit directly at the gate of the Expo.
the next day
The next day we can enter from Gate 1. If you are more interested in technology, you can go to the 5G exhibition hall on the west side of Gate 1, and then go north along the "Shanshui Gardening Axis" of the Expo Park. Then you can go to the China Pavilion to take pictures. The China Pavilion is facing the main entrance of Gate 1 of the park. As the most important landmark building in the park, the appearance is inspired by the traditional Chinese mascot - Ruyi. The "big roof" of the building looks like an ancient Chinese palace and a thatched farmhouse. With a construction area of 23,000 square meters, the China Pavilion is the largest construction venue in the Expo. In order to reflect the original intention of the China Pavilion "to build a mountain in the embrace of nature, cultivate a field, and cultivate a beautiful place", we chose to combine modern steel structures with glass curtain walls to create the outline of a huge golden roof and cornices. The first and second floors are independent exhibition areas of various provinces and cities. You can take a quick look at them. I personally like the Chinese ecological culture exhibition area on the basement floor of the China Pavilion. Among them, "A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains", "Fuchun The two long scrolls of "Dwelling in the Mountain" are displayed in the form of horticulture. Through gardening arrangements such as flower arrangements and green plants, combined with multimedia and other technical means, everyone can see the "plant scroll" version of these two long scrolls. Beautiful! Simply!
After visiting the China Pavilion, we can go for a stroll in the Chinese Horticultural Exhibition Area, which is next to the Chinese Horticultural Exhibition Area of the China Pavilion. There are 34 exhibition gardens built by various provinces, autonomous regions, municipalities, and Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan regions. Peer Square is one of the highlights of China Exhibition Garden. All provinces, autonomous regions, cities, Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan have provided a stone with local characteristics as an exhibition stone, which is surrounded by Tongtong Square. "It means that the Chinese nation is of one heart and one mind, forges ahead, and builds the Chinese dream together." Each stone has a corresponding text description, as well as its own origin and story behind it. Each of the 34 exhibition gardens has its own advantages and disadvantages. Personally, I like the Beijing Garden, Sichuan Garden, Yunnan Garden, Anhui Garden, and Guizhou Garden.
After visiting here, we came to the International Pavilion under the big flower umbrella, and took a beautiful photo. The International Pavilion is surrounded by 94 flower umbrellas. Minimize the architectural image and better integrate into the park environment. The international pavilion has its own characteristics when seen from a distance and near. The building area is 22,000 square meters, and the exhibition hall area is 11,000 square meters. The national pavilion is an indoor pavilion of a country and an international organization. It is basically similar to a domestic trade fair. There are various small items in the country. Those who are interested can collect a wave.
The first floor of hall b will change exhibitions every once in a while, so you can see different flower exhibitions every time you come!
Picking up the little baby we received at the international fair, we headed eastward, and moved to the next fair location—the World Horticultural Exhibition Area. The World Horticulture Exhibition Area is located on the east side of the International Pavilion of the Expo, where 41 outdoor exhibition gardens built by more than 80 countries and international organizations have been built, including 34 independent exhibition gardens and 7 joint exhibition gardens. Personally, I prefer the German Garden, the Japanese Garden, the Qatar Garden, the Turkish Garden, and the International Bamboo and Rattan Exhibition Garden.
After visiting the world horticultural exhibition area, in its northeast direction is the life experience hall. The life experience hall focuses on plant diversity, coffee, tea, traditional handicrafts, etc., and experiences horticulture in terms of clothing, food, housing, use, entertainment, health, etc. The application allows tourists to experience gardening and make life better. In the life experience hall, you can also experience the herbal culture, understand the regional characteristics and industrial achievements of Yanqing, the host city. The life experience hall is divided into four exhibition areas, including the preface hall, popular science horticulture exhibition area, life horticulture exhibition area, and special horticulture exhibition area. The horticultural landscape ramp in the preface hall is not bad. Walking along the landscape ramp from the first floor to the second floor, you can enjoy plants with different themes and enhance your deep impression of gardening. The second floor is the popular science horticulture exhibition area, which displays some Chinese herbal medicine and traditional Chinese medicine. If you are interested, you can take a look.
Then, if you still have time, you can take a stroll around the education and future display area. The Central Television Animation Exhibition Park, Chinese Puppet Theater, and amusement park are suitable for tourists with children.
