Aranya is so lovely during the off-season, and staying within the resort is a must!

Coming to Aranya feels like stepping into The Truman Show - time flows slowly here, meant to be savored. From Tianjin, take a high-speed train to Beidaihe Station, then a taxi to Aranya resort. We stayed at Anlan, which was a great experience. Before entering the resort, you need to call the hotel to register your license plate number. Within the resort, there are shuttle buses and various bikes available, including children's bikes. While there are many attractions in the resort, it can be tiring to explore on foot. Make sure to download the Aranya app - you can make reservations, order food delivery, call shuttle buses, and more. Almost everything is operated through the app. There are nine cafeterias in Aranya serving breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Check their operating hours on the app to avoid wasted trips. The cafeterias offer popular dishes at reasonable prices with good taste. Aranya has its unique atmosphere whether it's cloudy or sunny. Watching a sunrise at the Auditorium is incredibly romantic. It's getting quite cold now, so remember to stay warm, especially during early morning and evening - make sure to bring a thick coat. 📸: The Auditorium, Library, Sand Dune Art Museum, and Dog House require advance reservations through the app one day ahead. You can take great photos anywhere in the resort without specifically looking for photo spots. There are also many shops to explore - the more relaxed you are, the better your photos turn out. Aranya is perfect for strolling, daydreaming, and clearing your mind. Swinging by the seaside lets the sea breeze carry away your worries, and it's also a paradise for dogs.
