Pigeon Nest
Captured the stunning sunrise and sunset at Qinhuangdao🌅|||Always feel like the day has broken the moment the trumpet sounds
The brilliant prelude, the clash between ideals and reality
Finally 'listening to Qinhuangdao in Qinhuangdao'🎵
Watched the first sunrise and sunset of the year🌅
And the long-awaited frozen sea🧊
-
Qinhuangdao, Beidaihe, Aranya, Shanhaiguan📍
There are train and high-speed rail stations at each of the four stops, and the attractions are quite scattered, so it is recommended to drive or take a taxi, as buses are hard to wait for⚠
For sunrise: JInmeng Bay, where the sky meets the sea, Pigeon Nest, Aranya✔
For sunset: Laohushi Park✔
-
Day1-Jinmeng Bay-Blue Coast-Laohushi Park☀
Get up early to watch the sunrise at Jinmeng Bay
In the afternoon, go to the Blue Coast to feed pigeons and see the frozen sea
In the evening, go to Laohushi Park to watch the sunset
The whole pace is very slow and comfortable except for a bit cold
Qinhuangdao is really quiet during the off-season, even the KFC in the scenic area is not open
Day2-Aranya☀
It is recommended to stay in the Aranya area for convenience in watching the sunrise
The Lonely Library is very atmospheric for taking photos
Need to book in advance on the Aranya app
The area is large and suitable for a leisurely stroll, fewer people means a better experience
Day3-Shanhaiguan-Laolongtou🌤
Saw the starting point of the Great Wall and a desolate sea
There is a direct bus to the attraction, the ticket is 60💰 and it's worth a visit
The First Pass Under Heaven is said to be a bit of a tourist trap, so it's not recommended
-
Brainwashed by the Hebei Cultural Tourism copywriting, 'So close, so beautiful, go to Hebei on the weekend.' Always envying the workers in Beijing and Tianjin, who can go to Qinhuangdao to see the sea on a weekend!
The frozen sea is super beautiful, will come again next time👋

Build a long corridor, watch the vast sea, and admire the rising sun! Nest·Beidaihe
Every time I come to Beidaihe, Pigeon Nest is a must-visit place! Also known as Eagle Corner Park, due to the geological fracture, there is a huge rock on the seaside cliff that resembles a standing eagle, hence the name Eagle Corner Rock. The rock is over 20 meters high, and often groups of pigeons gather at dawn and dusk or nest in the crevices, thus the name Pigeon Nest.
Build a long corridor, watch the vast sea, and admire the rising sun! Located at the easternmost end of the Beidaihe seaside, Pigeon Nest is the best place to watch the sunrise over the sea. Every morning, tens of thousands of tourists gather here to witness the spectacular scene of the 'red sun bathing in the sea'.
At the top of the park's Dingding Mountain, there is a 3.2-meter-tall statue of the Chairman, with Mao Zedong's poem 'Lang Tao Sha·Beidaihe' carved in marble on the eastern base. The statue was erected by the Beidaihe District Government in 1992 to commemorate the 100th anniversary of Mao Zedong's birth. In 1954, Mao Zedong came to Beidaihe for the second time, coinciding with a disastrous rainstorm in Beidaihe. Touched by the scene, he wrote 'Lang Tao Sha·Beidaihe'.
The heavy rain falls on Youyan,
The white waves surge to the sky,
Fishing boats outside Qinhuangdao.
A vast expanse of water, all out of sight,
To whom does it belong?
Events of a thousand years past,
Wei Wu brandished his whip,
There are remnants of the past at the Jieshi Mountain to the east.
The bleak autumn wind is here again today,
But the world has changed.

Sunrise and seagulls
Watching the sunrise at Dove Nest, it's absolutely beautiful. It's a must-visit spot for photography. The sunrise in winter is around 7:20. The park opens at 6:40, and there was a long line at the entrance. Seeing the pink clouds, I was very worried that I wouldn't be able to catch the sunrise because the gate opened too late. Because it's a long walk after entering. But actually, it was just in time. It's just not very ample. The sunrise is fleeting, so you need to do some homework before shooting. There are two shooting spots, one is by the coast, the other is at the pavilion on the corridor. Both are good.

Beidaihe Travel Guide·How to play in Pigeon Nest Park recommendation
🙋♀️Beidaihe Pigeon Nest Park travel guide is here❗️Friends, look here🥳Share with friends~
📝Route recommendation:
1⃣️:Tiger Stone Park🏖️——Biluo Tower Bar Park🍻
2⃣️:Pigeon Nest Park🐦——Blue Coast·Cat's Sky City Bookstore📖——Tiger Stone Park🏖️
3⃣️:Xigang Garden🧩——The First Pass Under Heaven🏯——Qin Emperor's Alley🥘
🔖Note: I spent the first two days in Beidaihe, went to Qinhuangdao in the afternoon of the second day, and spent the third day in Qinhuangdao. Transportation takes some time, so everyone should plan well✅.
🧩Pigeon Nest Park
🎫Ticket: Peak season 25r
🕑Time: 3h (including waiting for sunrise🌄 time)
🏷Route recommendation: Enter the park——Climb the mountain to watch the sunrise🌅——Halfway up the mountain Eagle Corner Pavilion——Beach seaside 'Beidaihe' stone photo📷——Pigeon Nest Square to see pigeons🕊️——Exit the park
I got up at three o'clock🕒 in the morning, booked a car online🚗 (I was worried at first that it would be too early to book a car, but I got one quickly), and arrived at the entrance of the scenic spot at about four o'clock, and the gate opened at four twenty. There were already some tourists waiting.
There are two✌️ choices for watching the sunrise: the top of the mountain⛰️ and the seaside. I personally recommend going to the top of the mountain. But if it is peak season, there may be more tourists on the top of the mountain, so it may block the view of the sunrise, so it is recommended to go to the seaside🌊.
To go to the top of the mountain to watch the sunrise🌅, after entering, follow everyone and you will basically not go wrong. You may walk faster, after all, you want to watch the sunrise, so you should go up the mountain as soon as possible. The mountain is not very high, and you will reach the top after climbing for a while. Then it's waiting. You can find a suitable position.
After watching the sunrise, you can go to the beach for a walk👣. There are several roads down the mountain, and some roads can go directly to the beach. The morning sun shines on the sea☀️, the atmosphere is very beautiful🌊, but try not to go into the water, the sea water is quite cold in the morning~ There is a stone carved with 'Beidaihe' on the beach, it's nice to take pictures here📷.
There are shops selling souvenirs inside, and some snacks, such as sausages. I got up early in the morning without eating breakfast, and when I was about to leave, I was hungry and went to buy it.
There are quite a lot of pigeons🕊️ in the square. There is a bathroom🚻 next to the square.
🏨Accommodation: It is recommended to stay near Tiger Stone Park, which is closer to the beach and the street scenery is also more beautiful. ⚠️But don't be too far away on the street. I stayed a little bit far away, although it was near the beach, but it actually had to walk nearly a kilometer, and then I went to the beach several times by taxi for a starting price, in this case, it's better to live near the bus stop🤣

Have you seen the sea in winter? It has a unique beauty! You must see the sea in Qinhuangdao in winter! The seaside in early winter is quiet, clear, and chilly
The waves bring back stories from the deep sea to the shore, seagulls whisper on the shore, and visitors add to the scenery. In the busy life, steal a little time for yourself, grab a handful of sea breeze into the memory. Let's go, stand on the Old Dragon Head, the only Great Wall entering the sea, listen to the stories blown by the sea breeze for hundreds of years, stand at the foot of the 'First Pass under Heaven' Shanhaiguan and gaze at history, stay at the blue coast for the sunset only available on the day, and continue to ride the wind and waves after returning. The sea will be frozen 😱 Can't believe it's true. ❄️Frozen sea. The upcoming 99% of tourists only know about Beidaihe summer resort, the peak season is in summer. But the frozen sea of Beidaihe is in winter. 🏨Hotels/homestays are 100 per set, with high cost performance. Reverse tourism is really fragrant. 🌄Recommended sunrise places: Pigeon Nest Park, Jinwu Bathing Beach, Jinmeng Bay, Blue Coast. 🌊Recommended places to see the frozen sea: 1⃣️Navigate to Haitian Yise, just follow the path behind the hotel. 2⃣️Pigeon Nest. 3⃣️Jinmeng Bay. 4⃣️Blue Coast. 📝tips. Every winter, a large number of Siberian seagulls arrive in Qinhuangdao. Buy a bag of bread can feed for a long time. Ten seagulls per capita. Interested friends can try. ⏰3:00-400 in the afternoon is more appropriate, the weather is not cold, the sun is shining. 👔You can wear some bright colored clothes, very, very photogenic. Pigeon Nest Park.

This is the best choice for watching the sunrise
Pigeon Nest Park in Beidaihe, Qinhuangdao is an old scenic spot. I have been here in the early 1980s. At that time, it could not be called a park, but a place where you can climb to watch the sunrise. The current Pigeon Nest Park, after renovation and construction, is a good seaside scenic area, and it is still the best place for tourists to watch the sunrise. The various sceneries in the park are very distinctive. There are many tourists in summer, and autumn is a good season for play.

Shanhaiguan and Beidaihe trip.
To stay in Beidaihe, born for you in the blue sea. To the east is Jieshi, to observe the vast sea. With great ambition, travel happily on May 1st.

This is a pigeon nest in Beidaihe that nobody knows. The migratory birds are in groups and the scenery is pleasant. I dont know how many people have been here waiting for the dawn, and have experienced the visual feast of the Red Sun bathing sea.
It is not so much a dove nest, it is better to say that it is a small nest of the soul, the vast sea takes away the messy thoughts, the sound of a wave of flowers lingers around the ear, let the ears get pregnant~ let the mind go empty~ let the whole person Have the courage to face life and face yourself.
