Suburban City Walk | The city of Baoding, with its festive atmosphere, is perfect for a leisurely stroll

🚉Transportation Tips:
Driving or taking the high-speed train is recommended.
If driving, it's about a 1.5-hour journey. Park near the Governor's Mansion of Zhili. Many places offer free parking, and even the paid ones are just a few yuan, which is very convenient.
Take a taxi from Baoding East Station if coming by high-speed train.

🗓One-Day Itinerary:
Walking tour from the Governor's Mansion of Zhili to the Zhili Governor's Office - Ancient Lotus Pond and Lotus Pond Academy - Baoding Catholic Church

Have lunch on Baoding West Street and take a stroll down Baoding Pedestrian Street.
Walk from West Street to Daci Pavilion, which is about a 10-minute walk.
Visit Baoding Museum.

Avoid the Army Museum as it might be closed; instead, you can visit the Baoding Banquet Food Museum for dinner.

👍Highly Recommended:
The Governor's Mansion of Zhili has an entrance fee of 30 yuan, and it seems like a guided tour is around 50 yuan for a group of up to 10 people, which is quite affordable.
The Lotus Pond Academy costs 30 yuan. It's relatively small, but the scenery is nice, reminiscent of the water towns in the south of the Yangtze River.
Daci Pavilion and the museum are free of charge and not very large, so the visit won't take too long.
Recommended for a one-day trip
🌟Highlights:
The Governor's Mansion of Zhili is in the busiest area, surrounded by old shops and coffee houses, which are worth exploring.
It's truly enjoyable to earn money in Beijing and spend it in Baoding
