Where should I go during winter vacation this year? I want to go somewhere in China. I am 12 years old and have a three-year-old sister. We want to go somewhere with moderate temperatures and fun.

Children, judging from your composition, it should be a type of family fun that favors children. For this reason, considering the interests and safety of your children, it is recommended that your adults do not take you on adventures ( Such as hiking), immature, or journeys focusing on cultural appreciation. Based on the above, I suggest that your whole family go to Guangzhou. This is a typical southern city with mature and developed transportation economy. Compared with the north, it has warmer weather and longer sunshine, which is very suitable for family fun travel. You can also try the traditional food in Guangzhou. gourmet food. The following are related strategies:

1. It is recommended that you must go to Chimelong Wildlife Park in Guangzhou. This project includes three major theme parks: Chimelong Wildlife Park, amusement rides, and water world, plus Chimelong Grand Park. Composed of circus, the annual revenue of these three major theme parks plus circus is higher than Disney. Of course, the water park is closed, but if you want to visit the other two, it will take two to three days. I know there are wildlife parks in many places, but the one in Guangzhou is really different. White tigers, white lions, koalas, many giant pandas, and very exciting and advanced mobile games are worth a visit. The general strategy is as follows:

1. It is recommended to go to major group buying websites to find package tickets, such as amusement rides + Chimelong Circus, or Chimelong Safari Park + Chimelong Circus, etc. , there are also separate theme park or circus ticket sales. But you must see the Grand Circus. This circus is of international standard and has even been broadcast on CCTV many times (the ticket price for this circus alone is more than 250 yuan per person, and it is at night). Oh, by the way, if you go during the Chinese New Year, there should be a New Year party or a countdown or something. Many young people will gather there, and it will be very lively.

2. As for hotels, there are no hotels in the park, only nearby or in the city. If you want to be a wealthy person, stay at the Chimelong Hotel. Book online for 800 to more than 1,000 yuan. The room decoration inside is complete, as well as the White Tiger Restaurant (where you can see white tigers and flamingos), and the Panda Restaurant (where you can see pandas). ) are all good. If you buy them together with park tickets or circus tickets, there will be discounts. You can check with the hotel or online. If you want to save some money, search around Chimelong. There are many hotels in Guangzhou. Such as the Vienna Hotel near Chimelong Hotel, or the Seven Days Inn along Metro Line 3, etc.

3. Transportation: I can tell you that I have been to many wildlife parks in China. The Guangzhou Wildlife Park is the most friendly to the people. You can get there directly by taking Metro Line 3 from the airport and transfer at Tiyuxi (actually Take Metro Line 3 in the other direction and you can go directly to Hanxi Changlong Station (Changlong Animal Park Station). If you use the Yangcheng Pass (available at 7-11 and Tiantian Laundry in any subway station), the entire journey will not exceed 10 yuan. If you still don’t know, ask the staff or passengers on the subway and they will tell you, because it is so convenient. And as soon as you exit the gate, you will see many promotional posters guiding you out of the subway exit E. There will be a free air-conditioned bus at the subway entrance to take you to the gate and ticket office. Of course, you can also take a taxi, but it is more expensive at the airport, at least 180 yuan, otherwise there will be traffic jams. You can also take the bus, but you have to transfer - 2 yuan to get on the bus (you can search on Baidu map, but it will take a lot of time, mainly due to traffic jams, so it is not recommended). Therefore, you can also find hotels along the Guangzhou Metro (such as 7 Days near Kecun Metro Station). This is highly recommended, because in addition to being convenient to Chimelong, it is also very close to the Guangzhou TV Tower and Daoxiang Hotel mentioned below. If you want to go shopping, there is a large supermarket next to Tianhe Sports West Station in the center of Guangzhou (just three subway stations away). The 7 Days Inn and other express hotels in Guangzhou also cost around 200, so you can save a lot. You can go to different theme parks over two days.

Recommendation: Day 1: Bring some dry food or eat in the park, go to Chimelong Zoo + evening circus. Stay in hotel at night. The next day we went to Chimelong Mobile Game Park. In the evening, you can consider eating at the nearby Sihaiya buffet (Guangzhou is very famous for its large area, richest varieties, most popular buffet, and fresh seafood). Online group purchase dinner is about 150-170 yuan per person. You can buy it at Hanxi Metro There is a free bus to Sihaijia next to the Kouchanlong free bus station. Or go out of the city early to eat Guangzhou dim sum. It is recommended to go to Diandude, Lucky Lou, and Daoxiang (all chain stores) that serve dim sum all day long. The first two are cheap, and the latter one is more expensive, but the products are also good. It will be more refined) etc. If it’s almost 8pm when you go out, you can find a Chinese restaurant at will, because Guangzhou’s evening tea starts (about dim sum: Guangzhou Cantonese restaurant starts morning tea at 5-6am, afternoon tea at 2pm, and 8pm Half-starting evening tea) is equivalent to making snacks. So you don’t have to worry about not having a place to eat in Guangzhou. There are basically restaurants open 24 hours a day. As long as you open Dianping, open the location, and search for nearby restaurants, I’m afraid you will have difficulty choosing. Oh, just a reminder, if you can, make full use of the preferential time periods of Guangzhou restaurants (hotels). For example, Daoxiang offers a 40% discount on morning tea from 7:00 to 10:00 from Monday to Friday, afternoon tea from 14:00 to 16:00, and snacks at 8:00 p.m. In the future, hot pot will be 50% off. If you happen to have the right time, you can go ahead and reserve a seat. After all, Daoxiang's products are quite good.

2. Canton Tower, also known as Guangzhou New TV Tower, nicknamed Xiaomanyao, is located near Chigang Tower in Haizhu District (Yizhou Island), Guangzhou City, China, 125 meters from the south bank of the Pearl River, and Haixinsha The island faces Guangzhou’s 21st Century CBD District Zhujiang New Town across the river. The main body of the Canton Tower is 450 meters (the highest point of the sightseeing platform on the top of the tower is 454 meters), the antenna mast is 150 meters, and the total height is 600 meters. Subway Line 3 comes out at Canton Tower Station. Canton Tower is the tallest tower in China and the fourth tallest tower in the world (as of 2014).

The main fun is: the Spider Plank Road in Area D (334-335 meters) - the longest spiral aerial ladder in the world; the 488 Photography Viewing Platform in Area E (376-450 meters, the top floor) , rappelling experience (the highest jumping machine in the world), Ferris wheel, 108/F Starry Sky Observation Hall, 107/F Baiyun Observation Hall, vibration reduction system game hall, air post office (can be stamped with souvenir stamps and sent to relatives and friends everywhere), 3D Floor paintings, suspended corridors, lookout mirrors, etc. Of course, if you are rich, you can also try the world's highest revolving restaurants: Xuanji Mediterranean Buffet Revolving Restaurant, Lutees French Revolving Restaurant, and Jinyi Movie Sky Club: the city's highest 4D/3D luxury cinema. It is recommended to check the Canton Tower group purchase tickets online in person, as they will be more favorable.

1. You can go to the Canton Tower subway station in the morning and take the APM (unmanned automatic conveyor system) first, try this advanced means of transportation (different from the subway), and go to Haixinsha (2010 Asian Games). Check out the opening venue of the conference), Huacheng Square, and the Opera House. Then come back (the southern terminus of APM is Canton Tower Station);

2. If you still have time to come back at noon, you can try the Guangzhou Riverside Tram, which only opens on New Year’s Day, and the Guangzhou Haizhu District Tram It is the first tram line in Guangzhou. The total length of the line is about 7.8 kilometers. It starts from Wanshengwei Station and ends at Canton Tower Station. They are all ground lines. The eight identified stations are: Canton Tower and Yiyuan East Road. , Liede Bridge, Exhibition West, Convention and Exhibition Center, Exhibition East, Pazhou Tower, Wanshengwei, the ticket price is 2 yuan/person, the whole journey is along the Pearl River, the mother river of Guangzhou, one of the most beautiful sections in Guangzhou. You can take a round trip. If you are pressed for time, you can take a one-way ride and then take the subway back to Canton Tower Station. The whole journey is safe and comfortable, the scenery is charming, and it is suitable for both adults and children.

3. Start climbing the Canton Tower in the afternoon, because it gets dark quickly now, so you can still see the night view of Guangzhou around 6 o’clock. Based on my many years of experience, Guangzhou’s night view lighting is the best in China except Hong Kong. Beautiful.

3. Shamian, a very famous and sentimental petty bourgeoisie area in Guangzhou. Subway Line 1 (you can take Metro Line 3 and transfer to Line 1 at Tiyuxi Station). Come out from Exit F of Huangsha Station, cross the pedestrian bridge, and reach the river. When you get off the pedestrian bridge, you can see a stone on the left side of the river. Across the bridge, opposite is the Xigu Fort, an anti-British site in Shamian.

It is recommended to arrive before noon. You can walk along the river and walk around Shamian. Walking in, you can see the White Swan Lake (the old Pearl River Estuary) and the White Swan Hotel, as well as many concession-era buildings. The buildings in Shamian combine the architectural forms and artistic characteristics of many countries in the modern world and are worth a visit. There are also many atmospheric and representative bars and Chinese and Western restaurants. After a slow meal at noon, it is very interesting to stroll around Shamian. At the same time, you can also buy some exquisite trinkets or clothes that combine Chinese and Western styles. If it is the Lunar New Year's Eve, it is customary at the end of the year that the White Swan Hotel will have beautiful lighting decorations, and the sand surface should also have some simple lighting decorations.

In the evening, you can take a ferry from Huangsha Pier in Shamian to Fangcun Bar Street opposite, which is also a unique gathering place for young people in Guangzhou. Regarding lunch and dinner, in the old town of Guangzhou, in addition to many unique Western and Southeast Asian restaurants in Shamian, it is recommended to try Guangzhou dim sum at Victory Hotel and Qiao Mei in Shamian. Both of these are time-honored restaurants. (Especially Victory Hotel). In addition to being famous for dim sum, these two restaurants are also good at Cantonese cuisine. Their squab is their signature dish.

As a reminder, based on Guangzhou’s super bus passenger transportation system, it is recommended that you use Yangcheng Tong for the entire transportation in Guangzhou (it can be used regardless of subway, bus, APM, tram, and taxi). Generally, there is a 15% discount (excluding rentals), and there will be a 40% discount after 15 rides.

If you feel it is not enough, I suggest you try the hot springs in the south. After spending two to three days in Guangzhou, go to a nearby hot spring hotel to stay for two days. For example, Yingde’s Tree Hot Spring in Conghua, Guangdong, Bishui Bay, and Iron Spring in Longmen are all hot spring attractions with good reputations in recent years (which are also close to Guangzhou). It’s about a 2-hour drive). There are two ways to participate:

1. Cost-effective. You can find many group purchases for these two hot spring hotels on Baidu. The group purchases include hotel accommodation and hot spring tickets, and some also include meals. They are relatively affordable (I checked, including breakfast, one night in a deluxe double room, and unlimited hot spring park access for two people during your stay does not cost 900 yuan), especially if you choose to stay on a non-Friday or Saturday, it will be cheaper. Just make a reservation a few days in advance after group purchasing. You can go there by yourself. Call the hot spring hotel and they will tell you how to get there, and some hotels will also have relevant transportation shuttles, but you will have to pay more.

2. The most trouble-free. Generally, time-honored travel agencies will suffice, and there will also be many hot spring hotel groups of different levels to choose from. You can find the nearest travel agency through 114 inquiry or Dianping.

The relative cost is more expensive than the first one.

In addition, because I have also been inquiring about related content in the past few days, taking the Yingde Shushang Hot Spring as an example, I contacted the hot spring directly. They will increase the price during the Chinese New Year, and even provide round-trip transportation. Fees, including accommodation, tickets, breakfast and dinner, and a tour guide, are 500-600 yuan/person (depending on the room type), but it will be cheaper by about 100 yuan/person at leisure; if you only book a room, a double room will cost about 760-890 yuan Yuan, including breakfast for two people and hot spring and park tickets, it will be cheaper than 100 Yuan/room in your spare time. This hot spring is quite unique. Its selling points are the pristine forest, high-quality air, hot springs, and unique tree hotels. I suggest you check it out on Baidu. I would like to remind you that this hot spring is very popular and you usually need to book it about 5 days in advance, so if you want to go, you need to start booking.

The most comfortable and cost-effective way to travel is to avoid weekends. Even Sundays are better than Fridays and Saturdays. Take advantage of your vacation as much as possible. Okay, I should have answered all of them. I wish you a happy time and welcome you to Guangzhou.
