1 hour from Beijing, a small Barcelona at the foot of the Great Wall, my friends were asking me about it like crazy. I had been wanting to visit the Wa Factory Hotel for a long time, and finally went with my friend this weekend! Located in Beigou Village at the foot of the Mutianyu Great Wall, the hotel was converted from a glazed tile factory, so you can see colorful bricks and tiles everywhere. It is said to be the only rural heritage hotel in Beijing! Built on the mountain, with green hills, white clouds, red bricks, and green tiles, it has the leisurely and cozy atmosphere of the countryside, as well as the scenery of an American hotel. The environment is really beautiful! The hotel is built with red bricks and tiles, decorated with glazed tiles, surrounded by villages and mountains, fresh and natural! My kid's favorite hot spring pool is in the red brick maze, and he exclaimed, "It's so much fun!" There was no one there when we went, so we had the whole place to ourselves. It was really fun. Breakfast is served at the Wa Factory Western Restaurant, which is very rich, a combination of Chinese and Western. It was very heartwarming that the restaurant auntie brought freshly made handmade buns to each customer. I have to say, they were steaming hot and delicious! If you have enough time, you can go to climb the Mutianyu Great Wall early in the morning, visit the Wa Art Museum in the village, stroll around Beigou Village, or just find a quiet corner in the hotel to have a cup of coffee and read a book. It's really relaxing. We were lucky that the day we checked in was also the day Dong Yuhui's "Travel with Hui" was live streaming at the Wa Factory. We met several hosts and team members, but unfortunately, we didn't see Dong Yuhui because of the heavy rain at night!

There are also different themed activities every week, led by teachers, to liberate parents. ❹ Beijing Children's Art Theatre & China Children's Art Theatre On weekends when the weather is bad, I go to see children's plays. ❺ Beijing Valley Experience camping overnight in the forest and listen to the chirping of insects and birds. ❻World Park This is a long-established park where you can "travel around the world in one day". In summer, it also has a children's playground and night market, which is very lively. ❼ Ziyu Villa - in Zhihe Hotel A low-key luxury villa near the Fifth Ring Road, with small animals and a large lawn. Living in Zhihe, you can also unlock the super large outdoor hot spring and swimming pool. ❽Youlan Mountain-Fairy Tale Forest Youlan Mountain Scenic Area offers mountain climbing to see red leaves, water play in summer, and a large non-powered park... and the B&Bs are all great, worth staying overnight. ❾Xishan Hot Spring On weekends when the weather is bad, I will go to the hot springs and take my kids for a walk. Xishan Hot Springs has a full arrangement of eating, drinking, playing and resting, and it is very cost-effective. (Be careful to avoid crowded Fridays and Saturdays) ❿ Jinhai Lake Bibo Island A small island with beautiful scenery, suitable for staying on the island for one night. Infinity pool, golf, archery, yachting, horseback riding, camping... there are so many fun things to do that I can’t even finish them all. There is also a large lawn that is super beautiful for taking photos! ❶❶Pop Mart City Park It is the world of Labubu that is loved by both adults and children. The park is small but exquisite, and the rides are more suitable for young friends. It is super beautiful to take pictures, and you can check in with your passport to exchange for gifts, which is full of immersion. ❶❷ meland Indoor Playground Another choice for bad weather. If you go there for the first time, you must choose the "Universe Flagship Store" Wukesong Store.

It’s definitely a good idea to take your children to the Country Park, Xinma Animal Park, or Vitality Town. ❶❻ Qinhuangdao Aranya The biggest disadvantage is that it is expensive during the peak season, but it is a fun beach close to Beijing. The service and dining facilities are complete. It is recommended to stay in Suka if you bring children. ❶❼ 798 It is suitable for outdoor strolls, and there are more and more children's exhibitions. I especially like to visit exhibitions in summer. It is cool and broadens my horizons. ❶❽ Various parks When the weather is good, I will walk in the park. There are so many things to do in the park: riding a bike, camping, boating, catching insects, picking leaves, making snowmen☃️... The key is that it is free.

The Great Wall is a general term for the massive military projects built in ancient China at different times to defend against invasions by alliances of nomadic tribes in the northern border. The existing remains of the Great Wall are mainly the Ming Great Wall built in the 14th century, starting from Jiayuguan in the west and ending at Hushan in Liaodong in the east. It is 8,851.8 kilometers long, with an average height of 6 to 7 meters and a width of 4 to 5 meters. It is a great miracle created by the ancient working people of our country. It is also the crystallization of the ancient people's labor art and a witness to China's long history. - Building Features: - Long history: The Qin Great Wall was built in the 3rd century BC and has a history of more than 2,300 years. The Great Wall of China has a history of at least 2,700 years, if its construction dates back to the Western Zhou Dynasty and the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. Even the Great Wall built in the Ming Dynasty has a history of more than 600 years and is still well preserved, which is very rare in the world. - Amazing length: It stretches through 16 provinces, municipalities and autonomous regions along the Yellow River and Yangtze River, with a total length of 108,000 li (54,000 km), demonstrating the vast territory and indomitable national spirit of the Chinese nation. - Huge engineering project: Scientists roughly calculated that if the soil, bricks and stones of the Great Wall of Ming Dynasty were used to build a wall 1 meter wide and 5 meters high, it could circle the earth once; if it was used to pave a road 0.3 meters thick and 5 meters wide, this road could circle the earth three times. It can be seen that the engineering project was huge. - Exquisite construction: The land environment for building the Great Wall was extremely complex and dangerous, but the ancient working people relied on their wisdom and courage to successfully build this great building. Its construction requires the understanding and application of various scientific and technological knowledge, such as mathematics, mechanics, geometry, surveying, geology, architecture, organization and transportation.

Can't hide it anymore! A small, relaxing, and secluded village in Beijing that can be reached in 1 hour!! Beijing has some traces of autumn, especially in the suburbs of Beijing in the evening! $The relaxation at the foot of the mountain is not comparable to the hustle and bustle of the city. It can be reached in 1 hour by car. If the weather is good, you can see the Reclining Buddha Temple. Next door is the Mutianyu Great Wall~ The staycation at the foot of the Great Wall is quite romantic. It's super quiet at night!!! You can hear the sound of leaves falling. It seems that not everyone likes this quietness, just like not everyone can enjoy being alone. $Both Wachang and Sansa have lived. If Wachang is a more open holiday paradise, Sansa is more like hiding you in a secluded residence. $Wachang's public space is larger, but the house facilities are relatively old. Sansa's fashionable design sense is beyond doubt, and the room is relatively spacious. $Guests staying at Sansa can also go to Wachang to play at will~ It's just that it has more pure land than Wachang (Sansa is really quiet here! Sansa is suitable for solo travel or couples, and Wachang is more suitable for families with children. $Breakfast will be eaten in the Wachang restaurant. I love their handmade roujiamo and small wontons. I eat a bowl of soup and water in the morning to warm my stomach. The early autumn sun shines on the back and it feels very comfortable and healing.

Finally, this weekend, I and my partner stepped into the long-awaited Wachang Hotel, as if we had entered a fairyland that was independent of the world! This village at the foot of the Mutianyu Great Wall in Beigou Village is a rural heritage hotel transformed from a former glazed tile factory. It is unique and charming. ❤️Wachang Hotel is built on the mountain, with green mountains and white clouds, red bricks and green tiles reflecting each other, forming a picturesque picture. Here, there is the leisurely comfort of the countryside, and the scenery of American hotels is integrated, making people feel like they are in a dream world. The hotel is surrounded by villages and forests, fresh and natural, as if it can wash away the hustle and bustle and fatigue of the city. 🧱The hotel is made of red bricks and tiles, and there are glazed tiles everywhere. Every detail reveals the designer's ingenuity. These colorful bricks and tiles are not only a historical witness to the hotel, but also a heritage and display of rural culture. 🏊‍♂️The children's favorite hot spring pool is hidden in the red brick and tile maze, like a mysterious treasure. When we went there, there was no one, so we directly chartered the venue, allowing the children to play and have fun. The red brick wall and small swimming pool of the hot spring pool are excellent places for taking pictures, and they can easily take a big picture. 🍴Breakfast is served in the Wachang Western Restaurant. The rich Chinese and Western cuisine is memorable. The restaurant aunt brought freshly cooked handmade buns to every customer, steaming and fragrant, making people feel the warmth and intimacy of home. 🍲At dinner time, we chose Beigou Hot Pot, and the authentic copper pot shabu-shabu was delicious. After eating the delicious hot pot, we walked back to the hotel, sat in the yard to chat and enjoy the tranquility and comfort of the country night. 📸There are excellent photo opportunities everywhere in the hotel, and people can't help but want to record this beauty. The red wall arch of the reception area is super beautiful and super good-looking for portraits and still lifes; the lawn and tile house in the front yard can easily take a fresh and natural feeling; the red brick arch window and flowers in the guest room area make people linger; The sun umbrella in front of the backyard gym adds a touch of exoticism to the photo; the red brick wall and small swimming pool at the hot spring pool are not to be missed for taking pictures.

Whether it is a parent-child tour, a couple's vacation or a friend's gathering, it can meet your needs and expectations. Come to Wachang Hotel and start your dream journey!

After dormant for a whole summer, I finally waited for the beginning of autumn. When the sky was high and the clouds were light, I drove to the suburbs as soon as possible. I went to Beigou Village at the foot of Mutianyu Valley, a place I had visited countless times. Beigou Village is probably the happiest village in the suburbs of Beijing that Yilan has ever visited. The entire village is built on the mountain, with different heights. When you look up, you can see the continuous mountains and the winding Great Wall. There is a very stylish village activity center in the village, and homestays full of design sense can be seen everywhere. The streets are clean and tidy. It not only attracts many international friends to live here, but it is also a model of my ideal rural life. The most famous places in Beigou Village are undoubtedly the Wachang Hotel, a rural heritage hotel converted from the old Liulichang, and the Sansan boutique homestay complex converted from an old gas station across the road. The design of Wachang Hotel is unique, with glazed tile elements everywhere, simple red brick buildings, and American interior decoration design mixed together, which is eye-catching. The carefully maintained lawns and courtyards, and the colorful pavement sparkle in the sun. Every time I come to the tile factory, I can't help but take hundreds of photos. Such a beautiful hotel is open to visitors during the day. You can come even if you live here. The hotel also has a public hot spring area that all guests can enjoy. This time, Yilan stayed at the Sansan B&B next door. From the experience of staying here, it felt more gentle and quiet. Sansa B&B recreates the traditional cottage style of northern China. The stone roads connect the red brick courtyards. The guest rooms are distributed in several two-story buildings. Each room has its own small courtyard or large terrace. The atmosphere is nostalgic and warm, and walking in the courtyard always gives you a sense of home. Sitting in the shade of trees in front of the window in the afternoon, reading a book, chatting, looking through the layers of eaves, and watching the snow-white clouds rising over the green hills, this is exactly what I want for a rural holiday life. The rooms at Sansa B&B are very large and spacious, with wooden floors and furniture, linen curtains and warm yellow lights, creating a simple yet high-end wabi-sabi style. I casually struck the ethereal drum on the table, and the melodious drum sounds echoed throughout the room. At night, the only sound in the world was the crisp chirping of crickets in the grass in the yard. For a moment, I didn't even want to go back to the hustle and bustle of the city. For dinner, we chose to eat hot pot at Beigala Restaurant. The ingredients were fresh and delicious, and the meal was very satisfying. For dining options, you can also choose Yi Miao Vietnamese cuisine at San San B&B, or the Western restaurant at Wachang Hotel, which not only provides a hearty breakfast for hotel and B&B guests, but also offers Western-style meals and afternoon tea. The next day, I reluctantly checked out and went to the Tile Art Museum in the center of the village to see an art exhibition. The art museum has a tall golden glazed tile wall and is the landmark building of Beigou Village. When I left, I drove through the village road. The chestnut trees on both sides were full of furry green fruits. I will come again when the chestnuts are ripe. I am Yilan, a photographer who loves traveling. I will take you to explore fun and beautiful new ❤ places~

At the foot of the Great Wall lies the most beautiful hotel, with red bricks and colorful tiles, where you can enjoy a moment of peace away from the city. Tired of the city's hustle and bustle on weekdays, I drove to the 'Tile Factory Hotel' located at the foot of the Mutianyu Great Wall in Huairou District on the weekend. As soon as I parked the car, what caught my eye was the most rustic visual experience brought by the red brick walls. Walking inside, the luggage room and front desk, transformed from a kiln, also had their own unique charm.
