I stayed at an amazing hotel this Lunar New Year - Cixi Hangzhou Bay Submarine Hot Spring Hotel. I have to share it with you! 🏨Check-in experience The hotel environment is very nice, and you can feel the attentive service from the moment you step into the hotel. We stayed in a detached villa 🏡, the room was cozy and comfortable, with complete facilities, and we felt very at ease~ 🧖‍♀️The highlight is here! You can enjoy the deep-sea "real hot spring" here! There are several pools outdoors, and soaking in the warm spring water can sweep away the fatigue of the day, which is very pleasant. Moreover, the hotel stipulates that during 14:00 - 22:00, we can enjoy this rare hot spring time at any time, without worrying about not having enough time. ❤️Must-see tips: ▪️You need to wear a swimsuit 🩱 to soak in the hot spring This is something that really needs to be reminded to many people. I have seen people who didn't know this before and were confused when they arrived at the hot spring pool. So be sure to prepare a beautiful swimsuit in advance, and it will look great in photos~ ▪️It is best not to soak in the hot spring for more than 1️⃣5️⃣ minutes at a time Although the hot spring is very comfortable, you can't be greedy. Soaking in the hot spring for a long time may be too much for your body. According to this time, you can enjoy the beauty of the hot spring and ensure your body is in good condition~ ▪️Also, when soaking in the hot spring in winter, be sure to keep warm and don't catch a cold! You can also have a nice spa after soaking in the hot spring.

Beautiful Hangzhou Bay Wetland Park Hangzhou Bay National Wetland Park is located in Cixi, Ningbo, and is a national 5A-level scenic spot. Hangzhou Bay National Wetland Park is a bird paradise. As one of China's eight largest saltwater wetlands, the area has vast tidal flats, large tracts of reed marshes and grasslands, and is a necessary transit station for migrating birds. The scenic area is divided into ten major features: There are ten scenes including "winding corridors, shadows of streams and flowers, swans playing in the sunshine, black sails and woodcutters in the wind, herons sleeping on the green sand, reeds and autumn snow, leisurely elk, flowers in the mirror and moon in the water, paintings in the forest, and returning snipes nesting in the forest". In addition, the wetland park also has landscape projects such as live fish display garden, water forest, and cute pet park. The Ningbo Hangzhou Bay Wetland Migratory Bird Museum is the first migratory bird museum in China. The park is very large, with electric sightseeing buses that travel through the lush reed forest to enjoy the scenery along the way. You can reach the water forest and see black swans, macaws, flamingos, pelicans and other birds. A movie directed by Chen Kaige was filmed in the beautiful reed marsh, and large promotional photos of the male and female protagonists still stand there. The Feng Shui wheel and the love house located deep in the reed marsh have attracted many young lovers, who flock to them to experience the beautiful real scene. It takes about 2.5 hours to drive from Hangzhou to Hangzhou Bay Wetland. Birds up close and personal. Great place to watch the swans. [Recommendation reason 1 The world's bird migration site. Pay attention to sun and wind protection as the reeds do not provide any shade.

The park is bigger than imagined, and it is indeed a paradise for bird watching, with a rich variety of birds and their numbers. The park's route planning is good. You take a boat after entering and see the spectacular flocks of birds. The route after disembarking is also clear, forming a loop, so there's no need to backtrack. In addition to the scenery, there are also many animals, making it suitable for family trips.

I have crossed rivers and seas, passed through deserts and grasslands, but unintentionally, I forgot the forest. Perhaps, because it shattered itself, more than 9500 forest tourist spots are scattered in every corner of China, because they are too common, they are ignored. This time, in the name of forest tourism, stepping into Zhejiang, in the primitive nature of the forest wetland, watching the poetic dwelling of birds, comfortable life; in the mottled cobblestones of the ancient forest road, touching the vicissitudes of history, chanting the poems of a thousand years; in the cloud and mist fairyland of the forest park, listening to the legend of the 'Shennong tasting herbs', 'Sun Simiao living in seclusion'. Traveling in Zhejiang Zhejiang is convenient for transportation, many places can be directly reached by high-speed rail, but because this time the points are scattered in various places, for convenience, I still chose to drive. Itinerary D1⃣️Ningbo Hangzhou Bay Wetland Park ✅Hangzhou Bay Wetland Park (3h) In the afternoon, arrive at Hangzhou Bay Wetland Park, on the south bank of Hangzhou Bay, on the west side of the cross-sea bridge, a natural wetland of 63.8 square kilometers, it has vast tidal flats, and large areas of reed swamps and wasteland, it is a paradise for birds, and also the closest place for humans to nature.

Not high-end homestays that cost thousands of dollars a night, but real dwellings open to ordinary tourists.
