The most recommended is a set of selfies or beautiful photos in ancient Qing Dynasty costumes. ✅Detailed address: Wangyefu Town, Kalaqin Banner, Chifeng ✅Itinerary: Four hours’ drive from Beijing...one hour’s drive from Chengde or Chifeng. We drove from Chengde to Chifeng, and visited the Kalaqin Palace on our itinerary. After the tour, we returned to Chifeng city in half an hour and stayed at the Chifeng Serengeti Hotel. The hotel has a very high cost-effectiveness and the breakfast is delicious and rich. ✅Tips to note: There are blue skies and white clouds all the way, and there are mostly strong winds and ultraviolet rays, so pay attention to sun protection... There is one place under renovation in the prince's mansion, and the rest is fine. A thorough historical introduction to the last prince. ❌Least recommended: The guide at the door costs 80 yuan, which is too expensive and unnecessary... Every scenic spot in the palace has a free WeChat QR code introduction... ❌The ice cream in the convenience store here is terrible. It is pure sugar and has no milk flavor. I don’t recommend eating it. Opening hours: 8:30-17:00 (admission ends at 16:30) 🚗Self-driving: Chifeng, Inner Mongolia - Daguan Expressway - S206/Wangfu Street - Harqin Prince's Palace.
