Introduction
Some information may have been translated by Google Translate
Peking opera performance, as the quintessence of Chinese culture, originated in the late 18th century and integrates various art forms such as singing, reciting, acting and fighting. It uses Erhuang and Xipi as the main vocal styles, and the accompaniment is divided into civil and martial arts. The roles are divided into different roles, such as Sheng, Dan, Jing and Chou, each with its own characteristics. Peking opera stage art focuses on freehand brushwork, and facial makeup is an important element in expressing the character of the role. There are many classic repertoires, such as Jiujiangkou and Taking Tiger Mountain by Strategy, which show a profound cultural heritage. Peking opera is not only a symbol of the traditional culture of the Chinese nation, but also has been included in the list of intangible cultural heritage, highlighting its important status and value.

Spring has arrived, bringing the perfect opportunity for a leisurely family outing to Liangquan Xianggu for some refreshing nature walks

Spring has arrived, bringing the perfect opportunity for a leisurely family outing to Liangquan Xianggu for some refreshing nature walks

Beijing's spring has finally come, and this weekend I went with my family to the long-planned Liangquan Xianggu. We aimed to check out the famous 'Xiao Zhan-style' cave, which we had planned to visit last autumn by taking a hiking trip. Unfortunately, the mountainous scenic areas in Huairou were closed from November to March, so we had to wait until they reopened on April 1st this year. After reading many recommendations from friends, it seems that if you set out directly from the city center to Liangquan Xianggu on the day, the journey and potential traffic jams not only waste time but also mean you'll encounter crowds when climbing the mountain, and you might even have to queue for photos. Therefore, it's more relaxed to find a nearby homestay and stay overnight in advance. I searched for the closest homestays and found one called 'Sishi Homestay' within a 10-minute drive. Located on Fanqi Road, it opened last year with fresh decor and facilities. There are two courtyards of different sizes available for rent. After consulting online, the owner was very patient and detailed in their introduction. Since we had a large group, we chose the larger courtyard with four bedrooms that can accommodate over a dozen people. It has karaoke and a chess room to meet the needs of family members of different ages, and the kitchenware is also quite complete. Before we set off, we bought a lot of semi-finished products from the supermarket to cook together, which is both reassuring and lively when eating in a group. In the morning, we left the homestay for Liangquan Xianggu without any rush, finishing breakfast before 9 am. The tourists who started from the city hadn't arrived yet, and there were only a few cars in the parking lot. Our group calmly followed the stream uphill, taking photos at the 'Xiao Zhan-style' cave on the mountaintop at will. For those with the energy, you can follow the path to the source of Yanqi or even take on several dozen kilometers of hiking trails. Since we were accompanying the elderly and children, we took the simplest loop down the mountain. This route is only 3.5 kilometers long, and even with the elderly and children, it took us just two and a half hours to complete, making it a not-too-difficult hiking trail. On the way back to the homestay, we encountered several motorcycle groups and road cycling teams running on the mountain. The routes near the homestay are quite suitable for long-distance mountain biking training. Following the road signs along Fanqi Road, you'll reach Liuli Temple and Sihai, which are also classic cycling routes. Next time, I might join my cycling friends for a ride here.

Is Shichahai really worth visiting?

Is Shichahai really worth visiting?

✨Efficient and not tiring tour of Shichahai (it's best to come around just before noon) Start from the small alley next to the south gate of the Lotus Flower Market, where you can first encounter 'Sanhe Daoxiang Village'. There are several Daoxiang Village shops here, and you can choose to buy specialties as needed Following the path, you can see 'Nanmen Shuanrou'! Remember to get a number first because you can only get a number offline and the waiting time starts from at least an hour and a half After getting the number, continue along the path, cross the small bridge to the opposite bank to find 'Sugar House Coffee'. Here you can enjoy the air conditioning, have a cup of coffee, and enjoy the moment of tranquility. After a short rest, you can go and eat authentic old Beijing instant-boiled mutton. Additionally, the Lotus Flower Market has many interesting cultural and creative shops and photo shoot spots. After eating, it's also great to stroll around the lively market. Wait until the evening sunset to return to Shichahai, find the Yinding Bridge to watch the sunset, and wait for the sea of orange, it's really beautiful! 🎙Introduction: Shichahai is a historical and cultural tourism scenic area and a historical and cultural preservation area in Beijing. Located in the central urban area of Xicheng District, it is the largest and most intact historical district in Beijing. Shichahai includes three bodies of water: Qianhai, Houhai, and Xihai (also known as Jishuitan) and the adjacent areas, echoing the 'Front Sanhai', commonly known as 'Back Sanhai'. Shichahai is also written as 'Shicha Sea'. Since the Qing Dynasty, it has become a place for leisure and summer retreat, and is one of the famous scenic spots in Yanjing 💕Tips: If you want to take a boat tour, there are several ports, but you generally have to queue for a long time, and it's super hot to tour the lake in hot weather, so be prepared for sun protection to prevent heatstroke Many bars in Houhai are traps, don't get tricked To get a good seat at Sugar House Coffee, you need to go early and wait Nanmen Shuanrou serves too much food, so order less

Ancient Wisdom

Ancient Wisdom

This time, the Vacheron Constantin exhibition held at Pudu Temple was by invitation only, so there were very few people. Watching the exhibition in the temple was very leisurely and comfortable, allowing one to spend the whole day there. I really learned a lot this time! I highly recommend everyone to visit museums when they have time. I must say, the wisdom of the ancients was truly unparalleled. The patterns on these porcelains and dragon robes are still very classic today and are often used as references in modern designs. These patterns are very beautiful and have profound meanings. Recommendation: The benefit of visiting museums is that you can learn from the past to understand the present. You can learn a lot of knowledge that you can't find in books and see how our ancestors lived thousands of years ago and what kind of times they experienced. Science Popularization: If you love watching Ming and Qing dynasty palace dramas, you will find that the 'Sea Water and Cliff Pattern' often appears on dragon robes! It also frequently appears on traditional crafts such as porcelain, lacquerware, and furniture. It is a traditional Chinese pattern, commonly known as 'Jiangya Haishui' or 'Haishui Jiangya'. At the bottom of the pattern, many curved lines are arranged diagonally, called 'water feet'. Above the water feet are many rolling waves, with a mountain rock standing in the water, and auspicious clouds embellishing it. It symbolizes 'Blessed Mountain and Longevity Sea' and also carries the meaning of unifying the country. The 'Sea Water and Cliff Pattern' varies in different periods. For example, in the early Ming Dynasty, it was a shell-shaped flat water pattern, in the late Ming Dynasty, it was a cloud pattern, and in the Kangxi period, it was a standing water pattern, etc.

Spring in Summer Palace

Happily spent a good weekend in Summer Palace or 颐和园. It was quite packed with visitors in Saturday. But it was a good experience to enjoy the spring breeze and great Chinese architecture. ✨Activities that you can do here; sightseeing, photo-taking. ✨ Time to visit; spare at least 3-4 hours to enjoy the amazing side of Summer Palace. But I recommend you to spare a full day (from early morning to sunset time) to get a deeper experience. You can buy the ticket online, or via walk-in locket. The price are the same. Entrance ticket is 10 RMB, but if you buy the bundling version, it costs 50 RMB. Usually, the ticket only works for the same day before 14.30 PM. So, if you already bought the ticket, you should enter Summer Palace before 14.30. #freehotelstay

The Summer Palace is truly worth a visit! The experience of 'strolling through a painting' is stunning and photogenic!!

🏞️ Must-visit attraction: Nestled in the embrace of Beijing, the Summer Palace is like a dazzling pearl, not only the most completely preserved royal garden in China but also one of the World Cultural Heritages. Stepping into this classical garden, it is highly recommended to stroll along the Long Corridor, with its more than 1,700 meters of painted gallery, each painting tells a story, making one feel as if they are traveling through the river of history. Then, climb up to the Wanshou Hill, overlooking the rippling waves of Kunming Lake, which reflects magnificently with the grandeur of the Tower of Buddhist Incense, and feel the imperial grandeur. Don't forget to take a boat ride on the lake, get up close to the exquisite Seventeen-Arch Bridge, and experience the artistic conception of 'being in a painting'. 📍 Detailed address: No. 19, Xinjian Gongmen Road, Haidian District, Beijing 🚇 Transportation tips: Take the subway line 4 to Beigongmen Station, and it's about a 5-minute walk to the North Palace Gate of the Summer Palace. Alternatively, take the bus, with multiple lines such as 332, 331, 303, etc., all going directly to the various gates of the Summer Palace, which is very convenient. 🍜 Food recommendations: After touring, why not try some authentic Beijing snacks near the Summer Palace. The 'Siji Minfu Roast Duck Restaurant' located outside the East Gate of the Summer Palace, with its signature crispy-skinned and tender roast duck, is a Beijing specialty not to be missed. If you want to experience more traditional royal cuisine, the Tingliguan inside the Summer Palace offers court dishes that will satisfy your taste buds, each dish imbued with profound cultural connotations. 🏛️ Nearby attractions: After visiting the Summer Palace, continue your exploration of Beijing. Not far away, the Old Summer Palace (Yuanmingyuan) Ruins Park, though it has experienced vicissitudes, still offers glimpses of its former glory among the ruins. Or head to Peking University and Tsinghua University, these two top universities not only have a strong academic atmosphere but also perfectly blend classical architecture with modern aesthetics, making them great places for photography. ✨ Tips: It is recommended to enter the park early in the morning to avoid the peak of the crowd and enjoy a more tranquil garden scenery. Buying a joint ticket allows you to visit the main attractions at once, offering better value for money.
