Things to do in Langfang

Only after the Dream of the Red Chamber Theatrical Fantasy City fully opened on June 16, 2026, did new shows begin to appear. This time, I saw all the new shows, as well as the ones I didn't have time to see last year. The first four pictures are of the newly opened South Gate, and the last four are of the North Gate.

Shengfang Ancient Town, located in Shengfang Town, Langfang City, Hebei Province, enjoys a prime location and is a renowned water town in northern China. It's known as "Shengfang in the north, Suzhou and Hangzhou in the south." The streets are clean and well-maintained, offering a wide variety of delicious snacks, beautiful scenery along the riverbank, and convenient transportation and parking.

Xianghe is amazing! It saved us the fatigue of long-distance travel with a baby. The magnificent ancient architecture made for great nighttime photos. The Yongle Changge opera performance was spectacular. Even though my one-year-old didn't understand, he loved it! We changed into traditional costumes at the Shangyi Bureau and felt truly immersed in the experience. After the opera, there was a metal flower performance. In the evening, we enjoyed a whole roasted cow and a bonfire party, with the park brightly lit. During the day, there were continuous interactive programs throughout the area. We strolled through the intangible cultural heritage market, the snack street, the temple fair, and the children's playground. We experienced a more vibrant and lively traditional atmosphere than in the city. Most importantly, it was great value for money! 👍 Whether it was accommodation or entertainment, it was excellent. The chef at the local Xianghe meat pie stall told us that he had been making pie non-stop since early morning. 🥞 The scaled-down reconstruction of the old town was quite spectacular. If you have time, definitely go!

Finally, we arrived at Universal Studios Beijing, embarking on a magical journey through movies and fairy tales. Here, all the fatigue of adults was healed. Although the whole day was rushed and packed with activities, we gained a wealth of joy and relaxation. After entering the park, we immersed ourselves in the various themed areas. Every scene was a highly realistic recreation of a movie, creating a truly immersive experience. Our first stop was the Transformers base, with its cool mecha style and immersive atmosphere. The 4D effects of the AllSpark battle were incredibly realistic and breathtaking, making us feel like we were on a sci-fi battlefield – thrilling and exhilarating. For the brave, we tried the Decepticon roller coaster, where the high-speed launch and flips provided ultimate stress relief, instantly washing away all our worries. Next, we entered Jurassic World. The prehistoric jungle was incredibly realistic, and the Jurassic Adventure ride vividly recreated the dinosaur world. Lifelike dinosaurs seemed to come right up to us – thrilling and fun. The gentler Soaring Over Jurassic offered a panoramic view of the entire park, a truly soothing and relaxing experience. The most anticipated part of the day was the Wizarding World of Harry Potter. The ancient Hogwarts Castle and the retro streets of Hogsmeade Village perfectly recreate scenes from the movies. The Forbidden Journey offers an immersive magical adventure with stunning and realistic special effects, fulfilling a long-held magical dream. Unlock magical spots along the street with an interactive wand, paired with a classic Butterbeer for an unforgettable experience. In the afternoon, stroll through the adorable Minions Land. The pastel-colored buildings are cute and soothing, and the Minions' antics are lighthearted and fun, full of childlike wonder. The Kung Fu Panda area, with its traditional Chinese style, is elegant and tranquil, perfect for relaxation and experiencing the unique charm of Chinese fairy tales. The evening parade is lively and grand, with enthusiastic performers creating a joyful atmosphere that infects everyone. As night falls, the Hogwarts Castle light show is dazzling and dreamlike, with flowing light and shadow that amazes the audience. A day trip is short yet fulfilling. Universal Studios is more than just an amusement park; it's a gentle haven to escape the mundane. Here, we can temporarily let go of our stress and be carefree again. This passionate and romantic journey has filled me with energy and become a precious and beautiful memory in my life.

Driving from Beijing for just an hour this weekend, I arrived at this art palace, hailed as "the flowing cloud." Spanning 270,000 square meters, it's even more spacious than the National Centre for the Performing Arts. Quiet and uncrowded, every snapshot is a masterpiece of light and shadow. It boasts four theaters and 14 art galleries, hosting a variety of high-caliber exhibitions and performances year-round, offering a one-stop experience of diverse cultural fusion. Large, uncrowded, clean, and with a rich artistic atmosphere, it's a fantastic place for an immersive and relaxing weekend art experience!

Longfu Temple in Langfang... The incense in the courtyard is very strong. There are many people offering incense... The architecture is magnificent... The halls and pavilions are very large... The view from the top is very expansive. The ginkgo trees in the courtyard are turning yellow... When the maple leaves are turning red... It's so beautiful.

One of the best memories of Beijing! It was really cool getting to see the animals up close. A really extensive park with lots to see. Worth a visit if you love animals!

The guide was exceptionally professional, telling stories in language children could understand. The mythical beasts on the roof ridges and the historical anecdotes of the palaces were all vividly and engagingly presented, never boring. The pacing was excellent, explaining as we walked, attentive to the children, and patiently answering all their questions. Originally, we just wanted to visit the Forbidden City and take some photos, but after the guided tour, we truly understood the history behind the red walls—a very rewarding experience! Highly recommended!

张洋导游讲解的非常好！All visitors should book the national Museum of China trip. It is not easy to book on your own, book through Trip.com and have a guide to share the history with you..
