Uncover Saihanba: The mysterious realm of the North?

In the northern land, there is a mysterious place that attracts countless travelers. This is Saihanba. So what is so unique about this place that makes people yearn for it? Today, let's uncover its mysterious veil. Saihanba is located in Weichang Manchu and Mongolian Autonomous County, Chengde City, Hebei Province. It was once an important part of the royal hunting ground of the Qing Dynasty, Mulan Paddock. Here, forests, grasslands, lakes, and wetlands complement each other. Stepping into Saihanba National Forest Park, the vast forests are lush and green. Walking through it, breathing the fresh air, and listening to the singing of birds, the hustle and bustle of the world instantly dissipates. The Qixing Lake Wetland Park is even more picturesque. Seven lakes are scattered like the Big Dipper, surrounded by lush aquatic plants and wild flowers. It is a paradise for photography enthusiasts. Moon Lake is quiet and beautiful, with clear lake water, reflecting the blue sky, white clouds, and trees on the shore, like a dreamlike realm. Driving from Beijing to Saihanba is a good choice. You can take the Beijing - Zhangjiakou - Chahan Nur County - Saihanba route. Drive from Beijing to Zhangjiakou, take the G6 expressway north, and get off the expressway at Chahan Nur County to go to Saihanba. However, Saihanba is about 50 km away from Chahan Nur County, so you should arrange transportation in advance. You can also choose the Beijing - Langfang - Rongcheng - Saihanba route. This route is closer and has convenient transportation, making it suitable for self-driving tours. There are various accommodation options in Saihanba.
