[2025 Huailai Attraction] Travel Guide for Hongkun Wine Town (Updated Jul)

🌟 Hidden gem routes around Beijing! Escape the crowds and enjoy nature, art, and wine tasting 🍷 🚗 Travel tip: Renting a car gives you maximum flexibility. The entire journey takes about 1.5-2 hours and includes "Beijing's most beautiful suburban road" 🛣️, with therapeutic mountain views and windmills along the way. 📍 First Stop: Sunrise at Guanting Reservoir Bridge 🌅 Leave at 5am and wait for sunrise at the viewing platform on the west side of the bridge. The orange sunlight sparkles on the rippling water as the bridge silhouette turns golden 🌇! Collect colorful pebbles from the riverbank below to use as props for atmospheric photos. After taking pictures, head to a nearby farmhouse for a steaming bowl of tofu pudding + fried dough sticks to start your day with energy 🥢 📍 Second Stop: Secret Exploration of Guanting Reservoir National Wetland Park 🌿 Rent a tandem bicycle (30 yuan/hour) 🚲 and ride along wooden walkways deep into the wetlands. Beyond the regular observation towers, find a hidden photo spot in the "Reed Maze" 🌾 where you'll feel like you're in a magical green wonderland! At 3pm, join a bird-watching tour to see egrets, herons and other rare birds 🦅. Families with children can also participate in wetland science classes. 📍 Third Stop: Artistic Journey at Guanlan Little Erhai 🎨 Enter at 2pm to avoid the midday sun and head straight for the "Rainbow Stairs" 🌈 and "Mirror Sky Realm." Wear light-colored clothes for perfect photos! The park features boutique art exhibitions 🎭 with rotating installation art, and you can DIY hand-painted pottery (50 yuan each). When tired, visit the lakeside bookstore, order a special drink, and daydream by the window with lake views 📖 📍 Fourth Stop: Wine-tasting Time at Hongkun Vineyard Town 🍇 Enter at 5pm to catch the sunset and capture triple beauty—windmills, vineyards, and sunset glow—at the "Sky Mirror" observation deck! The winery offers free tastings of three wines 🍷. Try ice wine paired with chocolate—sweet but not cloying. After nightfall, the town square hosts outdoor movies 🎦 and bonfire parties 🔥, creating an amazing atmosphere! 📍 Fifth Stop: Stargazing and Camping at Guanhu Platform 🏕️ Book a tent spot in advance (150 yuan/night including equipment). Watch the sunset turn the lake pink in the evening, then set up telescopes to stargaze ✨—the Milky Way is visible to the naked eye! BBQ grills are available for rent (80 yuan/set), bringing your own ingredients for a relaxing cookout. Remember to bring warm clothes as temperatures drop significantly at night ❄️ 🍜 Food Bonus: - At farmhouses near the wetland park, don't miss the "stove fish" 🐟—dip pancakes in fish soup for finger-licking goodness! - At the vineyard town's Western restaurant, try the wine-braised lamb chops with freshly baked baguettes 🥖 for a special dining experience! 💡 Exclusive Tips: Guanlan Little Erhai hosts "Lakeside Concerts" 🎵 every Saturday—check the schedule in advance! Guanhu camping area provides hot showers 🚿, so you can stay fresh overnight. Pet owners note: except for the wetland park, all other attractions are pet-friendly 🐶 Save this guide and unlock these romantic hidden spots around Beijing! 💕
