Grand Canal Forest Park
Recently there is a fun saying that 2020 is called the "first year of Chinese picnic". On weekends, everyone is either on a picnic or on the way to a picnic. No wonder there is such an exaggerated statement - during the epidemic, outdoors are safer; children are also having fun in the wild and enjoying themselves more happily.
I don’t know if I don’t look for it. It turns out that there are many places for taking children to have a picnic in Beijing, and many of them are free!
Have a picnic by the canal, and see the birds and roses
Grand Canal Forest Park are all familiar with each other. What I want to remind you here is that friends who want to set up a tent, hammock or place mats, please enter through the north gate. There is a forest and grassland suitable for picnics not far away, and it is also a special tent area opened by the park.
This is an open park with a large area. There are Luhe Taoliu Scenic Area, Yuedao Wenying Scenic Area, Yinfeng Autumn Scenic Area, Jungle Vibrant Scenic Area, Mingjing Shizhu Scenic Area, and Gaotai Pinglin Scenic Area.
These small scenic spots have their own characteristics. For example, the Yuedao Wenying Scenic Area is mainly composed of tall trees and forests, taking into account the combination of evergreen, flower trunk and other plants. More than 100 varieties of plants such as trees, trunks, flowers, grass, ground cover, wet and other plants are planted on the island, providing a safe place to build nests for different birds.
If you are lucky, you might even see them take off in groups for food. If you sit by the water and see the birds waving their wings in the sky, you will feel a sense of happiness inexplicably.
Here, you will see many people taking their families and friends to take a picnic with all kinds of delicacies. There is a saying that is very popular this year: a good life may be late, but it will never be absent.
Although the flowers in spring have withered, the rose flowers in summer are flourishing again. The whole circle is filled with a sweet smell, and walking around can wash away the fatigue of the week. Remember to pay attention to the wisteria flowers on both sides of the wooden bridge. Although the fragrance is not strong, it is extremely romantic and is simply a paradise in the city. Holding the child's hand and holding the mobile phone, it's all a blockbuster film.
Grand Canal The water surface of the forest park is wide, divided into East Garden and West Garden. You can take a circle around the Grand Canal. It looks like about 20 kilometers and is very suitable for cycling. If you are not a professional, you can also rent multiple bicycles in the park and have a parent-child ride around the Grand Canal with your children. In addition, there is a lawn next to the open water, which is very suitable for flying kites.
In addition to the natural scenery, there is also a small children's playground in the park . There are paid game items such as carousels and small trains. Although not big, it's enough for the kids to play.
Wetland picnic, immersed forest
Dongjiao Wetland Park is located in the junction of three districts of Tongzhou , Shunyi, and Chaoyang , so it is very convenient for mothers in these three areas to get here. The park has four gates, southeast, west and north, so it is recommended that you go to the west gate. Because when you enter the west gate, you will walk not far along the left side and there is an artificial beach suitable for children to play.
has five characteristic landscape areas: North China Arboretum, Impression Forest, Wetland Forest, Dynamic Forest, and Creative Forest. Overall, Dongjiao Wetland Park is really a "treasure". Why? You continue to look down.
There is a 7.7-kilometer cycling greenway in the park and a forest-shaped greenway. It is surrounded by multi-story tall backbone trees on both sides, with a width of about 3 meters. Whether it is running or cycling, it is very suitable and will never affect your exercise due to direct sunlight. Moreover, the floor is covered with water-permeable and breathable colored asphalt, so even if it rains, it will not accumulate water. Riverside greenways and wetland greenways are beautiful along the banks of the Wenyu River. If there is one park in Beijing that is the most water-friendly, it must be here.
The park is very well managed, there is no garbage at all, there are many bathrooms, and seats are also spread throughout the park. Moreover, the park has also opened a tent picnic area (just in the beautiful calamus area).You know, it is too difficult to open a picnic area for tourists to put it in now. But here, there are four or five tent camps in the park, and there are fewer people on the east bank of the lake. If you like quietness, please take two steps patiently and camp on the east coast.
It is necessary to remind everyone that after a picnic, please be sure to clean up the garbage and disable open flames!
In the river berth, there is original wild interest
Baihewan is a treasure land for children walking that some senior children walkers will hide. Here we have the magnificence of the northern mountains and the agility and softness of the Guilin landscape. When the water plants are prosperous in the rainy season in summer, Baihewan is simply a fairyland. Moreover, the air quality of Yanqing is also very good in Beijing, which is a perfect summer resort for forest oxygen bar. It is important to remind everyone that you need to bring a thin coat to play here. Even in summer, Baihewan will feel a little chilly in the evening.
There is a very beautiful road in Baihewan, and you will feel pleasing to the eye on the way here. In addition to the streams, you can also play on the stone roads and wooden bridges on the streams, and there are small pavilions in the pool. However, adults must pay more attention to their children’s safety here!
The advantage of Baihewan is that parking is convenient, the scenic area is very large, the plank roads, stone steps, rivers, and wooden bridges are all very original, with few artificial traces. If you don’t want to have a picnic, you can order food in the farmhouse next to you. Toon eggs, wild vegetables, and stick noodles are healthy and farm-style.
In addition to eating, you can also buy fishing nets and buckets in the farmhouse, and catch small fish and shrimps in the stream. Another advantage of Yichuan is that there are many dragonflies, butterflies, and crickets. When you come here with your kids, it is best to bring a small net to hop butterflies. Although the child cannot be caught every time, this process is like going back to childhood with the child. Even if you catch them by chance, please let them go back to nature with your children.
There is also a used train in the scenic area, which makes you feel very good at taking photos. If you have a picnic, it will feel better. The wind was gentle, and the family was eating, drinking, singing and singing on the bank of the river. It was really a healing to the soul.
small park also has the atmosphere of fairy tales
Dongfeng Park is not big. The reason I recommend it here is because the garden is well repaired, and the other is because of freedom, there are no people. This is no longer common in parks in the city.
There are also many slate floors suitable for picnics here. If you are lucky, you can find a shaded placemat by the water. Dongfeng Park has done a good job in greening, with flowers and plants planted everywhere, wild chrysanthemums and white roses and can be seen everywhere. There are also flower arches, fountains, Roman columns, etc. in the park, which have a sense of fairy tale.
The more inconvenient thing is that there is only one bathroom in the entire garden outside the park parking lot. If you go, please be sure to go to the bathroom in advance.
Shougang side, enjoy Yongding River The largest lake
Lianshi Lake Suburban Park has the largest lake in Yongding River, with 500 meters wide at the widest point and a lake area of 1.02 million square meters. The vision is very wide. If you go to the west, you might as well come here to relax.
The parking lot of Lianshi Lake Park is very large, so you don’t have to worry about parking problems at all. The rivers in the park are also very wide on both sides, which is no longer suitable for everyone to sit on the ground, talk, take photos, and eat delicious food.
There are also bicycle rentals in the yard, starting from 60 yuan per hour, with a special cycling path, and you can enjoy the entire waters of the park. It is necessary to remind everyone that during the epidemic, only the east area is open. Before going there, it is best to call to check if there are any changes.
Park is perfect for picnics, with shade and plains everywhere and not far from the water. The only regret is that if the park restricts the open area, you will not be able to go to the new Shougang Bridge. The lake could have been around, so you can only return the same way. Although you can't appreciate the large chimney of Shougang from up close, it's also great to walk by the lake and find a chair to rest anywhere when you are tired.
You can fly kites in the park, and there is also a children's playground. Although it is not big, it is enough for children to play. Since the Yongding River releases water, parents are advised to pay attention to their children and not to get close to the cordon or river.
Qiwutan, winding paths
I don’t know that there are many people in Qiwutan. It is a craftsmanship park that takes photos with "360 degrees without dead corners". There are cute water birds such as lakes, black swans, wild ducks, etc. in the park, as well as super exquisite beautiful scenery such as Suzhou gardens, wind and rain bridges, unpowered water trucks, and lotus ponds. Especially when flowers bloom, walking from the trail to the wind and rain bridge is like Kyoto.
There is an old waterwheel in the park. When you see it, you will be a little confused if you are in a small town in the south. You can vaguely hear rice sprouting, and the waterwheel is squeaking and introducing water into the rice fields...
If you want to climb high, you can still find the remote building with flying eaves raised. Looking from a distance, you can see the panoramic view of Zhongguancun Environmental Protection Science and Technology Park, which is very energetic. If you catch up with the rain, you must climb high and look west. The probability of meeting clouds all over the sky is very high!
Qiwutan is really a peach blossom land. It looks not big at first glance, but when you walk in, you can see the winding paths and everything. It took about 3 hours to walk around the whole yard.
Due to the epidemic, the deer park in the garden will be temporarily closed. Please consult when you go. If it is open, it is the children’s favorite program. The various small animals here are clean and furry, gray geese run around the ground, and black swans are also leisurely wandering in the lake.
There are many places to sit and rest in the park, bring delicious food, enjoy the exquisite landscape, and watch the cute little animals walking around with their furry bodies, any fatigue will be wiped out.
is exquisite and compact, but has an open lawn
Although Xiaotun Park is not big, it is super exquisite and has a very good plan. Let’s talk about the lawn first, it is flat and wide, and it is completely comparable to the lawn of a golf course. At first glance, it is often taken care of by garden staff. Moreover, the surrounding trees are very tall and can completely block the sun, so they are simply not more suitable for picnics.
Many people praised Xiaotun Park for its good management, resting chairs are everywhere, and the trails are flat and clean. Moreover, the winding paths are secluded, with suspension bridges, rockery, ponds and flowers and trees. Many children are taking small strands to catch tadpoles. Here I would like to remind everyone that if you really want to catch tadpoles, you must put them back!
There are several huge crabapple trees on the hillside of the park. Many people will camp here with their children to enjoy flowers and fly kites. When you are tired of eating and drinking at noon, you can still take a nap under the trees with the cool breeze and the fragrance of plants. The only thing that is a bit flawed is that there is no parking lot at the entrance of the park, so it can only be parked on the side of the road.
This West Lake is not the West Lake, and watching planes is also a great pleasure
West Lake Garden is definitely an internet celebrity park recently. It has the advantage of being close to the airport. You can watch the big plane landing at the closest distance, which is super shocking. If the weather is good and the visibility is high, you can take a great photo of the plane with just a mobile phone. The happiest thing was the children. They were so happy just watching the planes rise and fall under the trees. They kept counting how many planes landed and how many took off. Moreover, the park is easy to shoot everywhere.
Xihu Garden has both appearance and connotation. The environment of the park is so great that it is completely useless. Lawns, lakes and trails are all available. You can see very clear trail guidance on the park map, and you can fully understand how far you have walked. The most surprising thing is that there are big white geese growing in West Lake Garden. They often walk around in groups of three or five, which is really cute.
Speaking of picnics, the lawn in West Lake Garden is so suitable, and it is obvious that people often take care of it. But I still want to remind everyone that you must take the garbage away after a picnic!

Must-have items for going out in summer
1. Sunscreen, sun hat, skin clothing
Now the weather is hot, and you are dressed up short when going out, and sunscreen is indispensable. The reason why we ask everyone to bring sunscreen is because sunscreen is actually time-efficient, and it is best to take it once every three hours.
If your child doesn’t like sunscreen, then sun hats and skin clothing are a must-have. It is recommended that you try to buy light and breathable ones. Some mothers will like to buy older ones for their children.But for outdoors, it is best to choose sunscreen for children to fit together to avoid tripping during exercise.
2. Mosquito repellent
Mosquito repellent is a must-have. It is recommended that you buy mosquito repellent with long-lasting effect, no fragrance, no greasyness, low irritation.
3. Sealable straw cup
The straw cup is a must-have item for summer travel, which not only keeps warm but also prevents small insects from flying in.
4. Alcohol hand sanitizer, hand and mouth wipes, dry tissues
There is no doubt about the effect of alcohol hand sanitizer. Hand and mouth wipes are designed to clean up the residual alcohol after wiping the hands with alcohol. Dry tissues are used to wipe sweat on children who are soaked after running crazy. Although the temperature is high now, it is inevitable that there will be a cool breeze when sitting under the shade of the tree. If the sweat is not dried, it will easily catch a cold.
