Before coming to Suqian, I never imagined that the Spring Festival Lantern Festival here would be so grand. The giant God of Wealth, the moon next to the red walls and yellow tiles of the palace, the Xiangliu from "Longing for Longing," the Dragon Palace, the mysterious bonfire party... Various lantern displays, ingenious designs, immersive performances, and not many people! I really want to say, it's not that Zigong in Sichuan is unaffordable, but that Suqian is more cost-effective. - 🚏Address: Zaohe Yuncheng, Suqian 🎈Lantern Festival Dates: Jan 18 - Feb 15 🕰Park Hours: 9:30 - 21:00 🚝How to get there: Drive or take a taxi from Suqian Station - 🏮Must-see lantern displays: Zhengda Guangming Hall, Xiangliu Zhiyi, Money Snake Passage, Underwater World, Wealth from All Directions, One Night Fish and Dragon Dance - Tips: ❶The Zhengda Guangming Hall lantern display is right at the entrance, and there are interactive performances of "The Emperor Arrives" during the day. If you want to be the emperor, you can go on stage and interact, but I think it's better to take photos at night, as it gives a sense of traveling back in time to ancient times. ❷The Xiangliu from "Longing for Longing" has also been moved here, standing 12 meters tall with white hair, making it a great photo opportunity. ❸There are more than 20 NPC interactive performances here, and there is a performance schedule at the entrance, so remember to take a photo before leaving. My favorite is "Jianghu Recruitment Order," where you can experience escorting a caravan with NPCs, which is thrilling. ❹There are many activities here, suitable for families, couples, and people of all ages. ❺If you wear Hanfu, you can enter for free. ❻Be sure to stay until 6:30 pm to watch their "Fire God Blessing" performance and join everyone in a hand-in-hand bonfire party, which is a lot of fun.

For those with children, you can bring water guns, raincoats, and spare clothes. Water guns are sold at the entrance, buy them in advance if you haven't brought any, as they are not sold inside the park. Spare clothes are needed because there are three places inside: the rapids ride, water battle shooting, and water play pool, which will get your clothes wet. The antique buildings and streets of the ancient town give you a feeling of traveling through a thousand years. With attractions like Shui Li Qian Qiu, Longyun Palace, and River Defense, modern technology is used to let you experience the wisdom of ancient people, as if flipping through vast and boundless books. Regarding the movies, we only watched 'Ancient Canal Through the Ages' and 'Together in the Same Boat'. Ancient Canal Through the Ages: Recommended for children under 1.2 meters, people over 65, those with heart discomfort, and those who get motion or seasickness. 30 yuan per session, but due to the crowd, we waited for an hour and then directly chose the 80 yuan express member ticket. It's only 7 minutes, but you feel immersed in the changes of the ancient canal over the millennia. The seat rises into the air, your feet dangling, with acceleration and diving during the flight, crossing mountain tops, passing through caves, an immersive experience! Together in the Same Boat: It's a bit dark when you first enter, with a segment simulating an attack on a boat with special effects, rocking back and forth, and then you come out to an ancient street scene. River God's Blessing: Sisters who have seen it say it's not bad, it's a performance on the hour, you need to queue up in advance, and you can pay attention to the performance schedule to plan your time. ★As for food in the park, it's quite normal, tastes normal, without any special features, and the prices are a bit more expensive than outside. This trip was a quick glance. If you want to cover all the attractions, you can opt for a 2-day itinerary, which allows you to experience both the cultural geography and complete all the play items.

Today, let us embark on this poetic journey through a thousand years, to Zaohe Long Yun City, that dream city hidden deep in history. Upon first seeing the ancient city: As you step onto this ancient land, the winding and twisting ancient city walls are the first to catch your eye. They stand there quietly, like an old sage telling stories of a thousand years. The sunlight gently falls on the walls, and each brick and stone sparkles with the glory of history. The splendor of Long Yun Hall: Entering Long Yun Hall is like traveling through time, back to the resplendent ancient palace. Inside, the stories of Suqian's history are told; they lie there quietly, like dazzling pearls, shining with brilliant light. Standing here, you can feel the nobility and grandeur of the ancient royal family, as if you can hear the echoes of history whispering in your ear. The scenery by the Zao River: Strolling along the Zao River, you will be intoxicated by the picturesque scenery. The river water, like a green ribbon, gently flows, making a babbling sound. The ancient buildings and sculptures on both banks are reflected in the water, intertwining with the river to form a beautiful painting. A feast for the taste buds: Of course, coming to Zaohe Long Yun City, how can you miss the local cuisine! In the folk culture village, you can taste a variety of authentic Suqian snacks.
