At 6:50 in the morning on July 10, 2021, our husband and wife set off from Tianjin on time, drove to Baiyangdian, Anxin County, Xiong'an New District, Hebei Province, and arrived at 9:00. The scenic spot implements a combined ticket, 4 scenic spots plus a boat ticket (air-conditioned boat), a total of 185 yuan per person, this kind can go ashore, and the tourists on board can leave at any time. There is also a hand-cranked boat, an ecological tour, without going to the scenic spots, 80 yuan per person, and a boat ride on the waterway for 2 to 3 hours. We are playing the former, the kind of 185 yuan. It takes about 20 minutes by boat from the pier to reach the Lotus Grand View Garden. We entered the park at 9:30. The Lotus Grand View Garden is the main scenic spot, which is very large. We spent 3 hours in it. The second is Baiyangdian Cultural Garden, which has been visited for 1 hour. There is a memorial hall for the Yanling Team, which is newly built. Gazi Village is also newly built, with a heavy commercial taste. The Fengqing Garden and Happy Island are some entertainment facilities and performances. The children should like it very much. We didn't play, but just got off the boat and walked around and boarded the boat again. The boat is a one-way delivery from one scenic spot to another, and it will not go back and forth. I don't know if it's because of the epidemic. The sitcom "Gazi Impression" has been banned from performing. At 16:00 in the afternoon, we drove out of the scenic spot and arrived safely at 18:00. The whole journey is 290 kilometers. It is worth mentioning that the ticket office of the scenic spot is also the customer service center. It is very good and has complete facilities. Many tourists drink and rest here. At the same time, through understanding, we know that there are two entrances to the Baiyangdian Scenic Area, that is, two cruise ship docks, which are located in two counties. They are cruise ships from two companies, one is an air-conditioned boat, and the other is an open-top boat. There is a joint ticket system for scenic spots, but the ticket price should be different, and the air-conditioned boat should be more expensive. There are 4 scenic spots, two of which are the last boat at 7:00 pm, and two of which are the last boat at 6:00 pm. I think that if you play Baiyangdian for 4 hours, that is, half a day, it is a bit tight, and you can only play those two main scenic spots. Also, be sure to wear sunscreen.
Tianjin - Baiyangdian, Xiongan New Area - Tianjin
The following are the strategies I made before the trip, for reference only.
Baiyangdian is located in the central part of Hebei Province, about 140 kilometers away from downtown Beijing and Tianjin. It is an ideal place for short trips on weekends in Beijing and Tianjin. There are endless reed marshes here, with waterways crisscrossing them, and the environment is beautiful. Every July, a large area of lotus blooms, which is even more beautiful. Several major scenic spots have been built in the scenic spot, including the natural scenery with Shuidian lotus as the main body, and the cultural buildings with the anti-Japanese history as the background, as well as performances and other projects, which are rich in content. In addition, there are many farmhouses in the scenic area, where you can taste river fresh food, eat lotus root, watch fishing, and experience the leisurely life of the water village.
The Baiyangdian scenic area has a large area, and the depth of the interior is tens of kilometers. There are some small islands in the lake, which have been developed into several major scenic spots. There is no passage between the island and the land, and it can only be reached by cruise ship, so you need to take a boat to enter the Baiyangdian scenic spot. Starting from Baiyangdian Anxin Wharf, which is also the location of the gate of the scenic spot, you need to pay the lake fee (equivalent to a large ticket) and rent a boat here. It is very convenient to rent a boat. The size of the boat varies. There are both speedboats and small wooden boats. Generally, it costs about 150 yuan a day to rent a hand rowing boat for 4 people. It can lead tourists to various scenic spots for an unlimited time. The speedboat is about 40-60 yuan an hour. If you are staying at a local farmhouse, you don’t need to rent a boat, and let the owner of the farmhouse pick you up by boat and take you to various scenic spots. The boat fare is generally included in the accommodation fee, and sometimes it can help save the deposit fee, which is better than going alone Chartering a boat is very affordable.
Now there are many scenic spots in the scenic spot, such as Lotus Grand View Garden, Exotic Garden, Baiyangdian Cultural Garden, Yuanfei Lotus Garden, Baiyangdian Treasure Island, Fisherman's Paradise, Leisure Island, Yuanyang Island, etc. The contents of these scenic spots are often repeated, so there is no need to visit them all. Time does not allow, just 2 to 3 attractions. Lotus Grand View Garden, Exotic Style Garden and Baiyangdian Cultural Garden are more famous scenic spots in the scenic area, and you can choose according to your own interests.
The Lotus Grand View Garden is a famous scenic spot in Baiyangdian. There are hundreds of species of lotus at home and abroad. It is a large-scale lotus garden with a large number of lotus flowers in the country. Come here every July, and the pond is full of lotus flowers. It is a good place to watch and take pictures. In recent years, the Grand View Garden has also introduced the world's largest lotus king lotus. The lotus leaves are like huge jade plates, with a diameter of more than one meter. It can bear children standing on the lotus leaves, which is very special. The exotic style garden is a performance-based park, where you can see performances such as fighting crocodiles, lion predation, Thai singing and dancing, tightrope walking, etc., as well as haunted houses, exotic carnivals and other projects (separate charges will be charged separately). Baiyangdian Cultural Park is based on humanities The landscape is the main one. There is the palace built by Emperor Kangxi when he came to live here, the memorial hall commemorating the story of the Yanling Team during the war, and temples and other buildings. You can visit them one by one.
In addition, there is a sitcom performance of "Impression of Gazi" on a small island next to the Baiyangdian Cultural Garden. The performance is mainly funny, and many tourists come to watch it.
Accommodation and Meals
When tourists are in Baiyangdian, they usually stay in Dianzi for one night. There are some hotels in Leisure Island, Fisherman’s Island and other scenic spots. However, the conditions of the hotels here are limited, and the prices are not cheap. The recommended place to stay is Wangjiazhai Folk Village. There are many farmhouses here, which are generally clean and tidy, and the price is affordable. After booking the room, you can ask the boss to pick you up by boat and lead you to scenic spots. You can also watch fishing, drink lotus leaf tea, eat authentic river fish, river prawns, river crabs and other farm fresh food, as well as the famous Baiyangdian salted duck eggs in North China. Experience authentic water village life. Generally, the accommodation price here is 100 yuan per person for 3-4 people (including three meals and shuttle boat fare).
