Chongli Taiwu Town Avoidance Guide! Capture High-Like Photos for Your Social Circle in 2 Days and 1 Night

Girls! Just got back from Chongli and put together this painstakingly detailed avoidance guide to help you dodge 90% of the pitfalls and easily snap photos that will blow up your social feed!

🚄 Transportation
From Beijing North/Qinghe Station → Taizicheng Station, it's a 1-hour direct ride. There’s a free shuttle from the station to the town. For friends from Tianjin, you can first go to Beijing South and then transfer; it’s a bit more troublesome but cost-effective~ If driving, just navigate to "Taiwu Town," the scenery along the way is stunning!

🏨 Accommodation
Recommended to stay at Taiwu Hotel in the town’s core area, just a 5-minute walk to the ski resort, with a balcony view of the snowy mountains. If on a budget, choose Eagle’s Nest International Youth Hostel, around 100+ RMB per person, with a very atmospheric common area.

🍜 Food
✅ Must-eat: Charcoal-grilled lamb leg at the Mountain Foothill Restaurant, crispy outside and tender inside, 198 RMB for three people and still can’t finish! Bashang Youmian Wowo (steamed oat noodles) paired with lamb stew, chewy and springy, look for the pure oat noodle label.
❌ Avoid: The popular coffee inside the scenic area costs 38 RMB a cup and tastes worse than instant coffee, better to bring your own drip coffee!

📸 Photography
1️⃣ European-style streets: Red brick walls + European-style lamp signs, instantly make you feel like you’re in Switzerland! Recommended to wear light-colored dresses, the light at 4 PM is the softest.
2️⃣ Giant Headphone Sculpture: A huge headphone halfway up the mountain, after rain it reflects a rainbow! Strike a funny pose pretending to wear the headphones, super fun.
3️⃣ Mountain Top Sea of Clouds: Take the cable car to the top, the misty clouds feel magical! Remember to bring a wide-angle lens to capture the generator train and sea of clouds in one shot.

💣 Pitfalls to Avoid
1️⃣ Cable car malfunction: Previously, tourists were trapped in the air for 1 hour, and the compensation was insincere. Avoid peak holiday periods and contact staff promptly if issues arise.
2️⃣ Sunscreen: UV rays are super strong on the mountain, you can get sunburned in minutes! Be sure to bring high-SPF sunscreen and sunglasses.
3️⃣ Temperature difference: The temperature difference between morning and evening is like changing seasons, bring a windbreaker and a bright-colored scarf that’s both practical and photogenic.

💰 Budget Reference
800-1000 RMB per person for 2 days and 1 night, including transportation, accommodation, meals, and tickets. Students can choose youth hostels and have a great time for around 500 RMB per person!

💡 Tips
1. It’s recommended to bring a power bank and drinking water, prices inside the scenic area are high.
2. Summer features music festivals and UTV off-road activities, follow the official WeChat account for the latest info.
3. Photography fanatics, remember to wear comfortable shoes as there’s a lot of walking in the town.

Girls, quickly save this guide! Let’s go to Taiwu Town this summer to cool off and take photos! 📸💨
