♨️ Half Tatami Double Private Hot Spring Courtyard
A classic double private hot spring courtyard, I always like to stay in rooms with tatami mats, because the photos taken on the tatami mats are always great. The room facilities include a XGIMI projector and giant screen, TOTO toilet, and smart home facilities. Just call "Xiaodu" to control the curtains, lights, and other facilities. The private hot spring pools are available indoors and outdoors, and the temperature can be adjusted. After a soak, I feel so relaxed, and then I can lie in bed and watch a movie in the evening. I can't live without a private hot spring in winter, and I have to stay with Yipiao forever.

MellifluousEphemeralZephyr Alexandria is not worth it
Egypt's second largest city
If you are traveling from Cairo for six hours, I really don't recommend it
We were on our way back from Siwa/Marsa Matruh and stopped by for a day trip
·
There are basically no monuments to see
The monuments that can be seen are mediocre compared to the attractions on the southern line
The Library of Alexandria was rebuilt on the original site (speculated)
The Citadel of Qaitbay was also rebuilt on the original site of the Lighthouse of Alexandria, one of the original Seven Wonders of the World
·
The self-driving experience is not very good
The roads are narrow and the traffic is chaotic
The public transportation we saw was mainly minibuses
They stop when you wave
I don't know exactly where to go or how to get there
·
It is definitely impossible to say that there are no scammers or harassment
But it is indeed much better than Cairo

✅ Anti-theft article
Always remember to bring a mobile phone lanyard when you go to London! It can greatly reduce the probability of being stolen my friend and I did not encounter thieves throughout the whole process ~
⚠️ suggest hanging a mobile phone lanyard ➕ dumpling bag in front of the body, it will be much safer!
⚠️ Keep an eye on everything you own. There are a lot of thieves out there!
⚠️ don't recommend carrying a backpack 🎒 easy to be stolen! Crossbody bags should also be in front of you to be ok
⚠️ Remember the fanny pack must be carried in front of you the whole time, once you go to the side or the back it can be dangerous!!!!
⚠️ pay special attention to not use the mobile phone should also be held firmly, or may end up with only empty phone case
⚠️ usually go out with only mobile phone lanyard, mobile phone, charging treasure, bank card, sunglasses lipstick sunscreen, etc., and student card
⚠️ In short, watch your mobile phone, bag and bank card throughout London! It's easy to lose things!
This trip to London has come to a successful end, the big city ➕ capital is really worth a visit! London has a lot of things that Edinburgh doesn't have, but the overall pace of the city is much faster than Edinburgh! Both cities are beautiful, long-lost bustle vs. quaint serenity, each with their own characteristics ✨.

Beside Erhai Lake in Dali! I love this beautiful sea view homestay.
Erhai Lake is half of the romance of Dali,

One day, you'll find yourself in Shangri-La for any reason.
The place closest to "heaven" is truly beautiful.
Here's a travel guide for Shangri-La.
✅ Sleep in
✅ Take great photos
✅ No backtracking
.
🗺️ Route
d1 Dajingfan → Dukezong Ancient Town
d2 Songzanlin Monastery → Napa Lake → Black Bean Coffee
d3 Pudacuo National Park
.
day1
➡️ Dajingfan
Arrive at Dajingfan around 12:00, when the lighting is best for photos. We recommend wearing Tibetan clothes for the best photos.
➡️ Dukezong Ancient Town
We recommend these shops: "Sangji Weina Vintage Bookstore, Old Tibet, and Pugu Cang." They're all great to visit. The classic photo spot in the ancient town is shown in picture 2. Navigate to "Zangjiwang Inn" and then go to Guishan Park to overlook the ancient town and spin the prayer wheel.
.
day2
➡️ Songzanlin Monastery
Known as the "Little Potala Palace," it is the largest Tibetan Buddhist monastery in Yunnan. It's a great place for photos! Highly recommended!
➡️ Napa Lake - Black Bean Coffee
The view from the window is stunning, and there's a healing little farm! Take bus No. 3 from Songzanlin Monastery to Hongtaiyang Square Station, then take bus No. 12 to Napa Lake. Bus No. 12 is a loop line, with the starting and ending points both at Hongtaiyang Square. Get off at Napa Lake when you see the beautiful scenery. Take bus No. 12 back to Jiantang Police Station (near the north gate of the ancient town).
.
day3
It's easy to get altitude sickness when you first arrive, so we recommend staying around the ancient town. On the third day, you can go further: Yubeng, Pudacuo National Park, Tiger Leaping Gorge, Meili Snow Mountain, etc.
➡️ Pudacuo National Park
Bus: Buy tickets at the Dukezong Ancient Town East Gate Bus Station (CNY 15 per person).
Self-driving: Navigate to the Pudacuo National Park Ticket Office. There are parking spaces at the entrance. The drive takes about 30 minutes.
.
🔖 Tips
❶ The temperature difference between day and night is large, so dress warmly. The UV rays are strong, and the weather is dry, so be sure to protect yourself from the sun and stay hydrated.
❷ Try not to wash your hair on the first night. Eating less meat can help reduce altitude sickness. Open the window a little at night to improve air circulation, which can help relieve altitude sickness.

Best photo spots for the Eiffel Tower.
360-degree best photo spots for the Eiffel Tower. Luckily, I drove a vintage car under the tower and got to experience being a Parisian driver!
·
Public locations, for those coming to Paris soon, take a look~
1️⃣Le Recrutement
This is a small corner restaurant, and you can see the Eiffel Tower at the end of the road. Red awnings, flowers climbing the walls, and artistic Parisian streets make it my No.1 photo spot❕
Search the name on Google Maps to find the location. It's a bit far from the Eiffel Tower, so it's best to go near lunchtime, and you can eat there after taking photos.
2️⃣Esplanade du Trocadéro
Located above the Trocadéro Gardens, this is the best place to view the tower! It's a must-visit for tourists, and I found that there were very few people at 8 am.
Tip: Avoid crowds and construction sites
👉Most people take photos on the side of the platform near the tower. We did the opposite and took photos from the side of the platform near the road, so we were far from the crowd and could take photos of the tower without people.
👉There is a row of golden sculptures on each side of the platform. Stand in front of the pool and take photos from the side to avoid 80% of the tourists, and you can also get a rich European background.
👉Don't stand in the middle of the platform to take photos with the tower, or you'll get the railing and construction site below. The stairs on the right are the best place to take photos. The wall on the side blocks the construction site, and the tower is unobstructed on the left.
3️⃣Pont de Bir-Hakeim
This is the bridge from Inception, a 15-minute walk from the Esplanade du Trocadéro. This gray iron bridge has the same strong metallic feel as the Eiffel Tower, making it a perfect match. Stand on the bridge and embrace the entire Seine River and the tower on the right bank!
There was also a couple taking wedding photos here, and after they finished, they kindly let us use their vintage car for photos. We were so lucky!
4️⃣Ave. Camoen
From the same side of the Pont de Bir-Hakeim, go up the stairs and turn right to see this popular photo spot on Instagram. But there are far fewer people here than at the Esplanade du Trocadéro. The street here is also beautiful, and you can take photos from a distance.
5️⃣Galeries Lafayette Rooftop
Everyone knows this place, but because it's a rooftop terrace with an unobstructed view, you can take photos with the tower even if there are many people. There is no construction here, and the Paris Opera House is next door, so you can enjoy the entire Parisian street view.
·
There are actually other photo spots, but I think the above are the best and easiest places to take photos, and they're all free, so save them now!
The Internet is right! This hidden gem in Yunnan is perfect for a vacation!
I've been living in Dali for 2 years and have started exploring lesser-known cities in Yunnan. I found Mile, a small city just 30 minutes away from Kunming by high-speed rail.

5️⃣ Jinping Mountain Scenic Area: The mountain is home to Mile Temple and the Great Buddha of Mile, a Buddhist cultural site.
6️⃣ Taiping Lake Forest Park: Beautiful scenery with large flower fields and lakes, perfect for outdoor activities and leisure vacations.

❣️ Cold rice noodles: Smooth and refreshing, served with special sauces and seasonings, very appetizing.
❣️ Grilled tofu: A local snack, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, served with dipping sauce, very tasty.

I've included a map for you to plan your route. Mile has beautiful scenery and delicious food, making it a great city for a vacation. Many elderly people come here for health and wellness. I hope this helps!
I'm still traveling around China with my husband. We've been on the road for 3 years and will share more travel tips with you in the future!
No Special Forces! 3-Day 2-Night Family Trip to Changsha
I just got back from Changsha with my kids, and I really felt the enthusiasm of the people of Changsha.
I want to take my kids to check in and play, but I don't want to be too tired.
Save this guide■ and take your time to experience a different Changsha!
"My Day Tour Route"
Day 1: Bisha Lake Subway Station - Meixi Lake Knot Bridge - Huangxing Square - Wuyi Square
Day ❷: Meixi Lake Art Center - Yuelu Mountain - Orange Isle
I took my kids to these places:
1️⃣ Orange Isle
2️⃣ Meixi Lake Knot Bridge
3️⃣ Wuyi Square
4️⃣ Bisha Lake Subway Station
5️⃣ Huangxing Square
6️⃣ Yuelu Mountain
7️⃣ Meixi Lake Art Center
💢💢💢
Traveling with kids, rest is so important~ I chose the [The Luxury Collection Changsha Jinmao Hotel], which is quiet in the middle of the hustle and bustle. The hotel service is very warm, and you can rest well while traveling.
📍Location
It is very close to the subway station, and the subway line 2 goes directly to it. Next to it is the Meixi Lake Art Center, which is very close to Orange Isle, Yuelu Mountain, and the Chinese Knot Bridge. It is very convenient to take photos and check in. Wuyi Square is directly accessible by subway.
The hotel room is spacious, and the Meixi Lake Art Center is right outside the window, with a great view! The bath is Byredo, the bathrobe is flannel, and there is Asuri magazine!
The children's favorite is the hotel's pet park, where they can play for a long time: horses, deer, alpacas, lop-eared rabbits, piglets, etc. can all interact, and there is also a small playground next to it.
The hotel's infinity pool is really romantic, with a great view, and the gym and spa are also very good. The lobby bar combines elegance and modern design. When you are tired of playing, you can have an afternoon tea with both looks and taste. The design is full of Changsha culture, and you can see the little thoughts everywhere.
Restaurant🍴
The dining environment of the Wild Restaurant on the first floor is very comfortable, with a wide variety of food in the morning, and it is very delicious. My two kids are very satisfied with the food every day! The dinner buffet is very complete, with a variety of global dishes, and you can also eat local Hunan cuisine! There are also various internet-famous restaurants around the hotel.
I really love Changsha, wait for good weather, and set off again on a weekend~
Chengdu - Qingyang Temple - Flowering Plum
The flowering plums at Chengdu's Qingyang Temple are now at their peak!
The flowering plums at Qingyang Temple, anticipated all year, are finally in bloom!
Resembling both plum and peach blossoms, yet neither, this flower is a hybrid of the double-flowered pink plum and the purple-leaf plum, a mixed-blood variety.
Qingyang Temple, originally named Qingyang Si, was first built during the Zhou Dynasty, approximately 3,000 years ago.
Emperor Xizong of the Tang Dynasty took refuge in Sichuan and used this temple as his temporary palace, hence the name change to Qingyang Temple. The existing buildings were gradually rebuilt and restored during the Qing Dynasty, under the reign of Emperor Kangxi.
Currently, 80% of the flowering plums are in bloom, and the flowering period is expected to last for another week, so visit soon!
The flowers are low-hanging, making them perfect for portraits without the need for elevation.
Next to the flowering plums stands a 240-year-old camphor tree, which served as the prototype for the fruit tree in the 1983 version of *Journey to the West*, in the scene where the fruit of immortality is stolen. During filming, the art department significantly modified the base of the tree, adding a pedestal, which makes it look slightly different from the "fruit of immortality tree" in the show.
Location: Qingyang Temple, Chengdu. The plum blossoms are located to the right of the Sanqing Hall.
Subway: Take Subway Line 5 to Qingyang Temple Station, Exit C. Direct subway access!
Food and Drink: Vegetarian meals are served at 11:30 am for CNY 15 per person. If you get tired from taking photos, there's a teahouse in the Tangwang Hall where you can relax and enjoy some tea.
Nearby Attractions: Culture Park, Sui and Tang Dynasties Kiln Site Museum, Baihuatan Park, Sichuan Museum, and Du Fu Thatched Cottage Museum are all nearby. You can choose to visit any of these attractions that interest you.

Beijing Metro Line 3 Finally Opens After Half a Century
On December 15, 2024, Beijing Metro Line 3 finally opened after 60 years of waiting 🎉
I had seen the reserved mysterious platform at Dongsi Shitiao 🚉
The metro line was first proposed in the 1970s
After 60 years, it finally returned to the Beijing metro network family~
Beijing Metro Line 3, like Lines 1 and 2, is one of the earliest planned lines in Beijing
In 1956, five Soviet experts came to Beijing and guided the drawing of the earliest Beijing metro plan
When Dongsi Shitiao Station on Line 2 was built in 1971, the platform and concourse of Line 3 were reserved under the concourse
Completed in 1984, it was rated as one of the top ten buildings in Beijing in the 1980s, and the only underground building among them
I remember last time I went to Chengde, I had to take a taxi to Chaoyang Station 🚕
Now the metro is seamlessly connected to 🚄 Chaoyang Railway Station, which is very convenient 🎉
If you like taking photos, you must visit Chaoyang Station
The newly opened west square and concourse of Beijing Chaoyang Station are a bit like Daxing Airport ✈️
The Chaoyang Comprehensive Hub Transfer Station is composed of a single-layer steel box girder reticulated shell structure, which is very spectacular 😮
There are also signs of meeting points on the pillars of Chaoyang Station on Line 3
It's so convenient to meet up with friends, such a thoughtful design ♥️
Stay here! I was surrounded by seagulls!
Flowers bloom, and the breeze comes
Instead of waiting for the wind, why not chase it
Nature has given us a place where the wind stays
That is to go to a place with wind - Dali
There are Cangshan Snow, Erhai Moon, Shangguan Flower, and Xiaguan Wind
You can roam freely between heaven and earth
Let the Tyndall light fall in every corner
.
📍Location
Dali Haidong
This is the core area of the entire Haidong, Shuanglang Ancient Town
The first one at the north gate entrance
There are mature dining and entertainment facilities around
.
🏡Configuration:
The homestay has a sea view coffee bar

A poetic getaway in Hangzhou, a tranquil time at Xiang Lake.
My destination this time is Hangzhou, and I am at Xiang Lake Freedom Manor. Walking to the window, I can see the green Xiang Lake. I chose to come to Hangzhou to experience this unique tranquility and comfort.
I chose to stay at Xiang Lake Freedom Manor. Here, it is away from the dust but not the city, hidden from the world but not far from the world. Xiang Lake Freedom Manor is located in Xiang Lake National Tourism Resort, and its unique geographical location and architectural style attracted me.
During the day, you can choose to take a boat tour of Xiang Lake. The boat is on the water, and the surrounding mountains and rivers seem to become agile. Whenever the boat passes a small island or a stone bridge, I feel a poetic picture. When the setting sun is on the lake, the golden light makes Xiang Lake more charming.
After nightfall, I chose to stroll by Xiang Lake. Watching a live performance "Xiang Lake Ya Yun" in Xiang Lake opened up another side of this landscape for me. In this quiet night, listening to the sound of water, the sound of wind, and the sound of opera, it is intoxicating. I felt this unique charm and poetry of Xiang Lake.
The accommodation experience of Xiang Lake Freedom Manor also impressed me. The hotel's design integrates natural and modern elements, both ancient charm and fashionable atmosphere. The hotel's facilities are complete, whether it is an indoor swimming pool or a children's playground, gym, etc., it makes people feel the warmth and comfort of home. And the photos taken by the outdoor swimming pool at night are even more refreshing.
During these three days and two nights of vacation in Hangzhou, I felt an unprecedented relaxation and comfort at Xiang Lake Freedom Manor. There is not only beautiful scenery and comfortable accommodation experience, but also a feeling of being away from the hustle and bustle and returning to nature. I believe that this wonderful time will become one of my unforgettable memories in my life.
Blue Temple, Chiang Rai | A temple that left me in awe for a long time.
| A temple that left me in awe for a long time. I've seen many temples in Bangkok and Chiang Mai 🕍
But the most magical temple is in Chiang Rai
Whether it's the architectural design, the craftsmanship, or the color scheme
You'll be amazed among the many temples!
🏛️Location: Blue Temple, Chiang Rai, search on the map to get there
🚕Transportation: It's about a 4-hour drive from Chiang Mai, located at the northernmost tip of Thailand. Most people come to Chiang Rai for a day trip, visiting the black, white, blue, and dragon temples
📷tips:
☑️If you're coming from Chiang Mai, it's recommended to rent a car, which saves time and effort. Plus, it's just right to visit four temples in one day. In addition to temples, Chiang Rai has many coffee shops worth visiting. If you're interested, you can wait for my next few posts
☑️The architecture is unique and huge, so it's best to have a phone with a 13mm or wider ultra-wide angle for better photos. The visual impact of wide-angle photos is something that ordinary photos can't give
☑️The Blue Temple is not as strict as other temples, you can wear long skirts or shorts, and there's no entrance fee. The photo spot is basically at the entrance
☑️Don't forget the Buddha statue on the right, it's very interesting to sit on the ground
This hotel in Chengdu is a great value for money.

A Romantic Dinner in Khao Yai
If you're visiting Khao Yai and looking for a place to enjoy a delicious dinner with a great atmosphere, perfect for dining with a loved one or family, I highly recommend Lacol Dome. Located within the Lacol Khaoyai Hotel, this glass dome restaurant has only four domes available. If you miss out on the domes, there are also regular tables available. The sunset view in the evening is stunning. The restaurant offers both à la carte and set course meals. The presentation of the food is beautiful, and the taste is delightful. I highly recommend giving it a try.
The hotel terrace overlooks the Eiffel Tower. I will stay here again next time I come to Paris!
When I came to Paris this time, it happened to be the Christmas holiday in Europe. I didn't expect to book such a cost-effective hotel in Paris, where it is hard to find a room - Canopy by Hilton Paris Trocadero.
-🧡【About the Hotel】
Canopy is a young and trendy hotel under the Hilton brand. The hotel is designed with vibrant orange as the main color, and incorporates diverse decorative elements. It is very photogenic!
-📍【Location】
The hotel is located on the street directly facing the Eiffel Tower, with an excellent location. The hotel has a rooftop terrace and a special Eiffel Tower terrace room, both of which offer direct views of the Eiffel Tower. You can enjoy the Eiffel Tower's light show directly from the hotel every night, which is amazing!
-🛏️【Guest Room】
We booked a small suite this time, with one bedroom and one living room, which is very spacious and comfortable. In fact, this room type can accommodate up to four adults, and the sofa in the living room can be turned into a double bed. The bedding in the room is soft and clean, and there are comfortable non-slip floor socks, slippers, and eye masks, etc., which make you feel at home.
The best part is that the guest room is also equipped with a kettle for hot water, which is a pleasant surprise for Chinese guests! Many hotels in Europe do not have hot water to drink, so Chinese guests who drink a lot of hot water will be very satisfied!
-🥐【Breakfast】
Highly recommend the croissants for breakfast! They are very big and delicious! The hotel's breakfast is a combination of buffet and a la carte. The buffet area already has a wide variety of bread, cheese, ham, etc. to choose from, as well as super fresh and delicious freshly squeezed juice! You can order some egg dishes, French toast, pancakes, and other freshly baked hot food.
In addition, the hotel also has a special Chinese breakfast for Chinese people, with crystal dumplings and eggs. Although there are not many varieties, it is really thoughtful and friendly to Chinese people. You can rest assured to book this hotel!
