The Governor-General's Mansion is quite large, with the main hall in the center and east and west sections. We started from the central axis, passing the ceremonial gate, the main hall, the second hall, etc., which were the offices and living quarters in that order. Then we moved to the east section, which had introductions to the various positions and staff of the Governor-General's Mansion, as well as an explanation of the official system. The west section also had some exhibitions and introductions to past Governors-General, which were helpful for understanding the Qing Dynasty's official system.

So close, yet so beautiful! Our weekend trip to Hebei perfectly captured this feeling. The mountain scenery here is incredibly beautiful, with steep slopes and majestic grandeur. Reaching the summit gives you a sense of being on top of the world, and it truly broadens your horizons.

Impressions of Xiong'an offer a brief glimpse into its past, present, and future. The core impression is that of a future city, a smart city, and an ecological city shouldering a "millennial plan." This is a new city rapidly rising from the farmland of the North China Plain, becoming a central hub for relieving Beijing of its non-capital functions, brimming with innovation and development potential. It's a worthwhile destination to visit with family.

Before I came here, I thought it was just a check-in. After entering the park and looking around, I was surprised. There are so many things to see in the park. It's very interesting to take a picture of the guide map and follow the map.

Stepping into the Western Qing Tombs offers far more than just visual memories of architectural outlines; it's an immersive feast of atmosphere woven from multiple senses, drawing you into the depths of history and nature. The best experience begins the moment you enter North China's largest ancient pine forest—tens of thousands of verdant pines stand like a silent ceremonial guard, the rustling of the pines and the extremely high concentration of negative oxygen ions instantly cleansing away the dust and noise. You can slow down, letting the afternoon sun carve dappled light and shadow on the sacred path of the Tai Mausoleum or the unparalleled golden nanmu wood hall of the Mu Mausoleum, quietly observing how time flows across the dragon patterns and painted decorations. The true wonder lies in exploring those unique "one-of-a-kind" pieces: at the circular dome of the Changxi Mausoleum, personally experience the acoustic miracle of the echo wall and echo stone, where a soft call transports you through time; delve into the Chong Mausoleum, the only open underground palace in the Western Qing Tombs, and feel the final tranquility and mystery of the royal mausoleum under its dome. As you stroll through Zhongyi Village, where the descendants of the tomb keepers live, and savor an authentic Manchu "steamed deer tail" amidst the blue tiles and stone walls, history descends from its grand narrative into the warm, everyday atmosphere. The climax of this experience might be when, as the sun sets, you stand on the Shengde Bridge at Tailing and gaze into the distance—the Taihang Mountains rise majestically before you, the Yi River meanders like a ribbon below, and the entire mausoleum area blends seamlessly with the mountains, water, and pine forests in the golden afterglow. At that moment, you understand that "harmony between man and nature" is no longer an abstract concept, but a profound and tranquil eternity felt by your body and mind.

Stepping into Baiyangdian, it's like entering a water town dream forgotten by time. The sun shines on the water, sparkling, and the reeds in the distance are like a green ocean. The breeze blows, and the reeds rustle, playing the music of nature. Sitting in a small boat and shuttling through it, you can see small fish and shrimps swimming in the clear lake water, and occasionally startle one or two water birds, flapping their wings and flying away. Every bay and every lotus leaf here is full of poetry, which makes people intoxicated. The most unforgettable thing is the experience of going to Yedian. I contacted the boss in advance, and the boatman he arranged was enthusiastic and practical. Not only did he take us to appreciate the most beautiful scenery, but he also helped the children pick the lotus pods they had been thinking about. Lunch was at a local restaurant that had been open for 19 years, and we tasted the special food of Baiyangdian. The crayfish was tasty, and the lotus leaf egg pancakes were also unique. Baiyangdian, without the hustle and bustle of the city, gave me a feast for the soul with its simple water village scenery, allowing me to truly feel the gentleness and beauty of nature.

On my second day in Baoding, I visited Langya Mountain, a mountain famous for its heroes. However, I was truly awestruck by the breathtaking scenery of Langya Mountain. Standing atop the summit, surrounded by mountains shrouded in mist, it was like a fairyland, yet so real. This is the land our martyrs vowed to protect with their lives. A salute to the heroes, a condemnation of the invaders!
