【China Mazhen Tourist Resort】

Address: Chenggong Street, Zhalaying Village, Fengning Manchu Autonomous County, Chengde City, Hebei Province

Transportation: About 4 hours by car from Beijing on National Highway 111

——

There are a total of six areas in the Mazhen scenic area, all of which are great to visit

1. Three Kingdoms Street

I rented a Hanfu and strolled around the Three Kingdoms-themed antique street

The NPC costumes that can be seen everywhere on the roadside have already made you feel immersed in the performance.

Listening to the hawking of the street vendors has a sense of being in another world.

In this area, you must watch the real-life horse battle "God of War Zhao Zilong".

It is thrilling and grand, with ups and downs and screams.

After watching it, you still feel unsatisfied and very shocked.

——

2. Parent-Child Interaction Area

Super interactive experience!! The close-up contact is really amazing! Instantly return to nature

Especially the cubs, their hearts melted

Pony🐎, baby camel🐫, ducks🦆, alpacas, lambs🐑

So many cute little animals, you can even feed them carrots and interact with them up close

Don't miss it!

There's also a magic stage play called "Guardian of Time" that's perfect for families.

Tips: For safety reasons, be careful not to touch or use flashlights to scare the ponies.

——

3. Heroes Square

There are float parades during the day, and the Pegasus sculpture in the square is very photogenic.

The square is bustling at night, and the electronic music party allows you to let go.

At the party, you can relieve your stress, forget everything, and sway to the music.

And there are fireworks shows every Saturday and statutory holidays!

Unfortunately, this trip happened to be on a weekday, so I missed the fireworks show.

Fireworks displays that you can never see in the city, but you can see the brilliant lights under the bright starry sky on the grassland.

This moment-captured beauty can only be experienced in Mazhen.

——

4. Ma Street

The Mengma Restaurant has a great environment and many children love it

The Ma Street stage in Theater No. 6 is also worth a visit

There are many popular check-in spots, perfect for taking beautiful photos

——

5. Grassland Tribe

The grass skiing amusement project is very fun and exciting

Sliding down from the top, facing the wind and looking at the scenery in the distance

It feels like all the pressure of life is forgotten at that moment

The big circus "Grassland Silk Road" in Theater 9 is even more breathtaking, wonderful and dazzling

The actors jumping rope and juggling on the backs of running horses are so shocking

——

6. Tianma Xingkong Amusement Area

Children can go on the carousel 🎠pirate ship

Adults can go kart 🚗 to experience the speed and passion!

——

【Hotel-Mengma Hotel】

A quasi-five-star hotel with a clean and tidy environment and stylish decoration

What's more special is that the room does not have air conditioning, but it doesn't get hot at all! It's really a summer resort

A paradise for those who are afraid of heat, and don't worry for those who are afraid of cold

The room has floor heating, which keeps you warm even in the winter grassland

The hotel facilities are very complete: gym, conference room, children's playground

The service is also meticulous. From check-in to check-out, the butler-style service will make you let go of the fatigue of the journey

It is also very close to the scenic area, and there is a shuttle bus for very convenient access.

——

【Food】

Don't miss the "World's Best Roasted Whole Lamb" at Mazhen Food Street.

The scorching heat of the charcoal fire and the charred aroma of the roasted lamb are still lingering in your mind.

It's a great place to share with a group. One lamb is enough for six people. The flavor is authentic and you can eat until you're full.

When you go back, remember to bring some Mazhen special snacks for your family and friends.

Highly recommended!!!

I bought a few boxes of grassland-flavor horsepower cakes to share with my parents, and they loved them too. I even planned to repurchase them online when I got home.

But I couldn’t find them online. This may be the unique charm of the grassland, so remember to bring a few extra boxes home!

I also bought some horse-themed cultural ice cream from Ma Town, and took photos to post on WeChat Moments right away, attracting the attention of many foodies hhh

You can buy it in scenic spots, hotels, and food courts

——

We highly recommend everyone to come to the grassland horse town to cool down in the summer.

Whether you are with friends, couples or families, it is suitable for #summer escape to China Horse Town# to have fun.

Come and start your grassland trip!

P.S.: During the summer vacation, parents should not miss this great place for parent-child travel.
