Tangshan is known as "the cradle of China's modern industry". It was born from coal, prospered from steel, and famous from earthquakes. This resource-based city, which once occupied half of the economy with the steel industry, is making great strides to transform into a beautiful cultural tourism city with the continuous beauty and transformation in recent years. This traditional industrial city has accumulated a lot of accumulation over a century, and it has regained its radiance. It also made me know a brand-new Tangshan with more cultural heritage once again.

After arriving in Tangshan, unload your luggage and check into the cozy Tangshan Yanwenlv Hotel. A comfortable hotel is the beginning of a wonderful journey. The lobby is spacious and bright, and the lounge area is also very comfortable and full of books. Entering the room, you will be greeted by an extremely cute little giraffe.

Tangshan Banquet presents a three-dimensional food culture, ranging from street snacks to tasteful specialty foods. Once you enter Tangshan Banquet, diners will definitely be dazzled by the variety of delicacies. Let's start the journey of taste buds.
There is such a sentence on the dinner table of Tangshan people, "If you don't eat the feast, you don't count as Tangshan". It is said that because the Empress Dowager Cixi, after eating this dish, she felt that it was fresh and refreshing, and she couldn't stop it, so she ordered the eunuch to "put it here." , The eunuch then shouted loudly: Lafayette gave the name "Let it go", and since then, this dish has become a hit. Come to Datang Zhoufu Boutique Chinese Restaurant to try this delicacy today.
Qizi Biscuit is also a Tangshan specialty that must be tasted. The biscuit is named after its shape like a snare drum and its size like a chess piece. Sometimes it contains meat or other fillings and sesame seeds on the surface. It is small, crispy and fragrant. Two ovens are used to bake sesame seed cakes, one is to light a fire below, and the other is hung above, and both sides are baked at the same time.
After lunch in Tangshan Banquet, you can walk about 600 meters from the hotel to reach the South Lake tourist attraction. It is a park in the central area of Tangshan with ecological scenery. After experiencing the natural ecological landscape of Nanhu Lake in Tangshan, being in such a beautiful environment is like encountering a water town in the south of the Yangtze River. The richness in the scenic area is beyond imagination, and the South Lake is so big that it will not be the same after a whole day of shopping.
The fairyland-like Vientiane Forest has a dream garden and a tropical rainforest area on the first floor, a desert plant area on the second floor, and a non-existent museum on the second and third floors. It is presented in the form of photoelectricity, making people feel like a dream. It is a parent-child activity. Should be popular too. There are not many people in the botanical garden during the day, so it has become an excellent choice for taking pictures. The green ins style is probably fascinating, and many people will also come here to take pictures of wedding dresses. It can be seen that it is very good to take pictures.
There is the Jiangnan Garden in the garden. In Nanhu Park, there is a Jiangnan Garden of the World Horticultural Exhibition. The gardens include Suzhou Garden, Hangzhou Garden, and Changzhou Garden. The scenery of small bridges, flowing water, and strange stone pavilions are all available. People in Tangshan can see them at their doorsteps. Seeing such a unique and elegant scenery in the south of the Yangtze River, how can we not remember the south of the Yangtze River?
There was still a while before the light show started, so I went to the Dating Time Cafe in the park to take a break. It was not very conspicuous from the outside. I just wanted to have a drink and rest for a while. When I entered, I found that the interior was really a treasure. . There are two event halls, and the decoration is stylish to enhance the entertainment atmosphere. There are starry sky KTV, space-time tunnel game hall, private theater, billiards, chess, board games, and DIV kitchen, all of which are available. Only after understanding It's also effortless to host parties or team building.
The game consoles are stacked together in the space-time tunnel, and the instant sense of technological travel can take you back to the arcade time of your childhood, and once again fight side by side with your partners; the starry sky KTV is absolutely shocking, and the starry sky above your head is simply blinding, as if you are coming When it comes to the space capsule that shuttles through the universe, it has dreamy lighting and can accommodate 4 to 50 people. It is not a problem. The sound quality and music library are not inferior to professional KTV; Private viewing time; the e-sports Internet cafe with 10 high-end computers is enough for e-sports enthusiasts to stop here; there is also room for billiards, chess, board games and other activities.
Finally, the night is coming. I like the night of Nanhu the most, because the long-awaited light show is about to debut. When the music fountain and the light show are organically integrated and echoed each other, the lights are shining, the waterline is dancing, lifelike, vivid and changeable, the water column can reach 100 meters, and the long-rolled huge water screen movie, the perfect visual feast is in front of you .
For dinner, we will return to Tangshan Banquet again.
