1-hour drive to the exotic 'Little Dubai'

Dachang National Palace, known as Little Dubai, is just a 1-hour drive from Beijing and is a great place to relax. The white building, designed by locals, has won the International Award of the 'American Architecture Prize'. The main building is a perfect square, completely symmetrical, with a white circular dome in the center. The outer layer of the building consists of tall arched corridors, surrounded by pools, which is very beautiful. Inside the National Palace, there are libraries for adults and children. Here, you can not only experience the exotic atmosphere of Dubai but also take many beautiful photos. Close-ups, mid-shots, and wide shots are all very beautiful, and several typical shooting spots are provided here. You can capture different feelings in the morning, noon, evening, and night. We took our photos at noon when the sunlight was quite strong. Address: Navigate directly to Dachang National Palace in Langfang City, Hebei Province. There are plenty of parking spaces. Tickets: Completely free, no reservation required. Travel time: About 1 hour from downtown Beijing via Jingqin Expressway and Jingha Expressway; about half an hour from Tongzhou District via Tongyan Expressway.
