Beijing has another super park! It's the "ecological pearl" of Haidian District, covering 85 hectares and adjacent to the North Branch of the Palace Museum. The park is spacious yet very quiet, with plants, flowers, and water systems, making it another great place for Beijing citizens to relax. With a structure of "one lake, two dikes, and twelve islands," it integrates natural wetlands with cultural landscapes, becoming a new leisure destination for Beijing residents. Although the park is not yet fully completed, the open areas are more than enough to explore. North Area · Natural Wetland Oxygen Bar Centered around Yuhu Lake, two long dikes encircle the water, with twelve small islands scattered within, connected by bridges. As you stroll through, the scenery changes with every step. The sparkling lake reflects the dikes and islands, allowing you to fully experience the unique charm of the wetland! "Yuntai Yuantiao" (Distant View from the Cloud Terrace), which incorporates imperial garden elements and historical depth, is the best spot to overlook the entire park. It offers a panoramic view of the dikes, islands, and the lake, making it a must-visit spot in the North Area! South Area · Leisure and Science Education Rest Area The South Area is closer to residential areas, so its spatial layout is more convenient and diverse. Centered around "neighborhood interaction, resident convenience, and leisure," it is equipped with basic recreational facilities for all ages, such as a children's activity area, a water play area, and a fitness trail, making it more suitable for family outings! More wonderful spots are waiting for you to discover. Make plans with your friends and visit on a sunny day.

Recently, a "Pet" icon was added to the railway ticket booking page, signaling a comprehensive upgrade to the train pet transportation service. Starting October 15, the railway department expanded the service pilot for the third time, extending the pet transportation service from 10 trains on the Beijing-Shanghai line to 50 trains nationwide, covering popular routes such as Beijing, Shanghai, Hangzhou, Nanjing, and Shenzhen. After successfully purchasing a ticket, passengers can make a reservation through the "Pet Transportation" portal on the booking page, where they can view available spots in real time and fill out the transportation information. This service not only allows pets to travel on the same train as their owners but also introduces an innovative "solo travel" option, allowing pets to be transported alone. Shippers need to make a reservation 2–5 days in advance by calling the customer support hotline and must arrive at the station early on the day of travel to complete the check-in procedures, submitting a valid ID and an Animal Quarantine Certificate. Currently, 40 high-speed rail stations across the country can handle pet transportation, ensuring a smooth process from online reservation to offline drop-off. The upgrade of the high-speed rail pet transportation service provides pet owners with a more convenient and worry-free travel option, meeting the growing demand for pet travel.
