1.5 hours in Beijing, not Dali, but Beijing's "Little Erhai Lake"

💙💙It’s not that you can’t afford to go to Erhai Lake in Dali, but the Guanting Reservoir in the suburbs of Beijing is more cost-effective! It takes only 1 hour by car from Beijing to enjoy the freedom of seeing the sea! A good place with blue sky and white clouds☁️playing in the water🌊, taking the kids to play in the water🍭, fishing🎣camping and sunset🏕~ Very suitable for a one-day trip from Beijing, suitable for couples dating, girlfriends camping, and mothers taking the kids out for a walk. And it’s not hot this season, it’s quite cool. ⛰️【About the scenic spot】📍Position: Guanlan Xiao'erhai Lake🚗Transportation: Public transportation is not very convenient, it is recommended to drive by yourself, about 1.5 hours from Beijing, the road conditions are good🎫Tickets: Free·Free·Free•🏃【About the route】Guanting Reservoir Lake Viewing Platform👉Guanting Reservoir Bridge👉Guanting Reservoir Ancient City Beach Bathing Beach👉Guanlan Xiao'erhai Lake👉Hongkun·Wine Town.1️⃣Guanting Reservoir Lake Viewing Platform🅿️Parking fee: 10 yuan per time (no admission fee).
