Guest User: The price is OK, it is worth mentioning that the bathhouse in his house is very similar to the bathhouse that my dad always took me to take a bath when I was a child. It is still a zero-year style. It reminds me of my childhood. When my dad took a shower for me, I got a full score for my feelings. 💯

Botou Mosque is one of the famous ancient Islamic buildings in North China. Its overall shape is similar to Han Buddhist temples and Taoist temples, but its functions are completely Islamic, reflecting local characteristics. It was first built in the second year of the Yongle reign of the Ming Dynasty (1404), and has undergone many expansions and renovations. The existing buildings are in the style of the Ming and Qing Dynasties. It was built by order of Emperor Chengzu Zhu Di of the Ming Dynasty. Since then, it has undergone many reconstructions and expansions. The main structure of the existing building complex was mainly formed in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, and large-scale repairs and expansions were carried out during the Kangxi and Qianlong periods of the Qing Dynasty. It was built by order of Emperor Chengzu Zhu Di of the Ming Dynasty. Following the principle of central axis symmetry of traditional Chinese architecture, the main buildings including the gate, Bunker Building (Minaret), Prayer Hall, and Moon-Watching Building are arranged in sequence along the north-south axis. The mosque faces east and sits west, covers an area of 15,000 square meters, with a construction area of 3,000 square meters. It consists of three parts: the front yard, the atrium, and the main hall courtyard, with more than 200 houses. The exterior combines traditional Chinese temples with Arabic architectural elements, such as flying eaves, brackets, glazed tile roofs and Islamic patterns. The main worship hall adopts a "hook-and-link" structure, forming a huge vertical space that can accommodate thousands of people worshipping at the same time. The rear kiln hall has a hexagonal spire. The temple houses precious cultural relics such as the Ming Dynasty handwritten Quran, Ming and Qing Dynasty porcelain, bronzes, and , reflecting its profound historical heritage. The brick carving and painting techniques are exquisite, with floral and geometric patterns as the main patterns. Some carvings incorporate auspicious patterns of the Han nationality and coexist with Arabic calligraphy, showing the fusion of multi-ethnic cultures.
We stayed at the Universal Studios Grand Hotel again, taking a relaxed approach, not insisting on checking off all the attractions, and just resting at the hotel when we got tired, which gave us a lot of freedom. Most of the staff were easygoing and down-to-earth, especially the staff at Kung Fu Panda Land of Awesomeness, who were particularly gentle and patient with children, making for a great experience. Unfortunately, some staff at the Minions area were a bit rude and aggressive, which slightly ruined the atmosphere. Overall, the park's scenes are highly realistic, and taking your time exploring makes for a wonderful trip.
杨萧川We booked a ticket with a guide for three hours because the normal tickets were sold out, and in the end we were super happy we took it. I think it's much more interesting to go through with a guide. We were there on a very cold, cloudy day — very gray and dark — so I think if we hadn't booked the tour, it would have been very easy to just walk through and be like, "Okay, the buildings are cool," and move on. I would really recommend booking the tour. It was very interesting, and that's why we enjoyed it so much. It was absolutely beautiful — huge and impressive.
d_alinaSince I was in Beijing, I had to visit the Great Wall. The scenery there is irreplaceable. Taking the cable car up felt short, but it saved me a lot of energy, allowing me to use it for climbing the Great Wall. 😀 The Great Wall winds its way up and stretches far into the distance, it's truly magnificent. I heard that some sections of the northern route are currently under renovation.
M60***39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..
E43***44The surrounding facilities are well-developed, supplies are plentiful, and prices are acceptable. Overall, the climb wasn't too tiring. When I went, it was drizzling and foggy, and all I could see were steps! Transportation costs seemed quite expensive! I saw online that hiking poles were 5 yuan each at the entrance at the bottom of the mountain, but actually, they were 5 yuan for two a little further inside. If you only need them once and don't want to take them with you, that's fine!
Anonymous userDuring the National Day holiday, Prince Gong's Mansion was packed with people. The mansion covers a considerable area and has many attractions. It's highly recommended to hire a guided tour for a more engaging experience. Official guided tours within the mansion cost 40 yuan per person, with one guide leading a small group of about 10 people. Headphones are provided, ensuring clear audio, and the price is reasonable. Prince Gong's Mansion is very close to Shichahai Park, so you can visit both in the same area. Additionally, the surrounding area includes the former residences of famous figures such as Mei Lanfang and Guo Moruo, and the Huguosi snack shops are also nearby.
Roger-BaggioThe main temple is amazing and it’s lovely to walk around the grounds and get space away from the hustle & bustle so make sure to walk around the grounds… but it’s SO busy with people dressed up trying to take photos for their social media, you can barely move! I’d still go back to see the main temple though and the culture is interesting to observe!
_TI***hpA must-see attraction in Jinan, the chrysanthemum exhibition is also very beautiful recently. The continuous gushing of Baotu Spring is quite amazing, and it gets really crowded. Going early is better. The spring water is incredibly clear when the weather is good.
verazheVery interesting guide, totally recommended sun 老师。 Totally amaze on his storytelling.
