Depart from Beijing at 9:30am! About 2.5 hours to arrive at today's destination Tongzhou Grand Canal Forest Park - comparable to Beijing's Ossen Park canal ecological natural oxygen bar, the park covers an area of more than 10,000 acres, the spring canal is as flat as a mirror, the layers of flat forests such as waves, green poplar flowers and trees like a picture. Used to the concrete and steel of the city, embracing nature is the best way to open the weekend spring. In the scenic area, "one river, two banks, six scenic spots and eighteen attractions", modernity and simplicity are blended, which makes people forget to go back and forth.

                                                   Grand Canal Forest Park  

Inside the park, you can see the neighboring residents jogging and walking, relaxing. Families walking their children also abound, and the park also has outdoor camping, barbecue, parent-child picking, cultural entertainment, and even a company outdoor development campground, which can meet the needs of different people. Imagine how pleasant it would be to lay a picnic mat and set up a tent in the tent area on a sunny afternoon and listen to cicadas and birds singing with your eyes closed.

In addition, the park's popularity of the reed field is recommended by name, summer lush autumn gold, small fresh sense of pulling full of wooden stacks, meandering through the period, lazy sunshine comes with a soft halo, so it is no wonder that it will become a lot of couples of the wedding photo shoot. ps: found a few pictures of the beauty of the reed field in the fall, a shot is a blockbuster, no less than the osun and duck lake, planting the grass!

Tips: The fastest way to get to the park is to enter from the west gate 6! It took us a long time to get there from the east.

You can also take a bus tour to reminisce the past prosperity of the Grand Canal.

Children in the park will not be bored at all, in Tongzhou's largest children's playground - Green Island Park: self-control airplanes, pirate ships, bumper cars, rapids, roller coasters ...... more than 23 entertainment projects, but also children love the oversized sand pit, the children love the sand pit, the children love the sand pit, the children love the sand pit, the children love the sand pit, the children love the sand pit, the children love the sand pit, the children love the sand pit.

                                                   Grand Canal Forest Park Day 2: Songzhuang Art District: Seeing Exhibitions, Buying Paintings and Playing Cards

In addition to strolling in the park, bringing your kids to receive art is also one of the purposes of this trip. I had heard about Songzhuang Art District, and this time I finally got my wish. This is an up-and-coming art district where painters and avant-garde artists are concentrated. There are more than 100 art centers, galleries and museums, and there are also opportunities to meet avant-garde art exhibitions and art festivals. Many of the galleries in the Songzhuang Painter Village are the original courtyard houses and houses in the village, as if the time has been reversed, so you will never be bored when you walk around casually.

                                                   Songzhuang Art Zone  

Songzhuang Art District is home to the famous Songzhuang Art Museum (closed on Mondays), Shangshang International Art Museum (closed on Mondays) and Songzhuang Painter's Village Gallery. In addition to different styles of art works, the Tree Museum/Quan Art Museum, full of architectural beauty, has been featured on the INS and the circle of friends time and again, with its superbly photographed red-brick walls, the bold and collision of geometrical beauty, floor-to-ceiling glass, and the interplay of dots, lines, and surfaces of light and shadow. The hanging staircase unlocks the beauty of the space, and you can see many young people wearing beautiful clothes to visit the art museum.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       Shang Shang International Art Museum                                                    Songzhuang Art Museum                                                    Songzhuang Art District      

Compared with the famous 798 Art District, Songzhuang Art District is much larger, less commercial, less crowded, quieter and purer. Songzhuang Art District provides free parking spaces, and it is most convenient to drive by yourself. It is very worthwhile to bring children to walk around and see the beauty of architecture and painting.

In the afternoon, the sun slowly shows its head, tired of walking in the park's specialty cafe for half a day, drink coffee, read a book, quietly enjoy the quiet good time! The park has a large number of specialty coffee shops: the more famous net red store is out of the coffee, to the village pottery cafe, rose town cafe, after dark cafe, and all kinds of buyers collection store, different shapes of pottery, ornaments ...... and so on you come to taobao!

It takes about 20 minutes to drive from the hotel to the newly opened Tongzhou Green Heart Forest Park, which was opened last year on the National Day. As Beijing's urban green lung, how can you miss this "regional net red"? The park covers an area of more than 11 square kilometers, so one day is not enough for a slow walk! The good thing is that you can rent a scenic sightseeing bike to explore the park.

The most popular attractions in the park are the 5.5-kilometer star-shaped ring road, the Golden Scenic Avenue, the season's flowers in full bloom, the "net red flower sea" gerbera, sage flower sea, and reed swamps. The park is not crowded with tourists, although the area is large, but the details are exquisite. Our family unanimously voted that the best part of the park is the tent area on the lawn. We saw a lot of families bringing their kids over for the experience, as well as Indian-themed tents provided by the park, and cute alpacas and bunnies to jerk off to!

There's also the "Green Camp" area near the P10 parking lot at the north gate, with grassy lawns, white tents, mini-soccer balls, and sand pits.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                Day 3 Afternoon: Han Meilin Art Museum

After spending most of the day in the Green Heart Park, we finally prepared to "admire" the art gallery of Mr. Han Meilin, the national-level art master and designer of the Beijing Olympic Games mascots. We didn't have much knowledge about Mr. Han before we came here, but we found out that many of the designs that Mr. Han was involved in were not only Fuwa, but also a lot of other familiar designs, such as the Beijing Olympic Games mascot, which was designed by Mr. Han Meilin. Mr. Han's designs include not only Fuwa, but also many other familiar masterpieces, such as the Beijing Olympic Games logo, Air China Logo, Peking Union Medical College Hospital Logo, and so on. Reservations are required!

Also accidentally found Han's old and out of the circle of work - the 2016 monkey mascot "Monkey Sailai Lei", when the Spring Festival Gala released its 3D modeling, directly because of the "too ugly" directly on the fire! Hot search. However, Han was a bit wronged, Han only designed its front picture, the subsequent announcement of the 3D image is not involved.

Han's attainments in modern arts and crafts are quite deep, this set of animal series looks like very like, got a set of postcards, and finally put a 2021 Han's new work, wishing everyone a prosperous year of the ox!
