Dear fellow villagers, relatives and friends, I am late, especially late. I only presented this travel note in the last month before the end of the Expo. I am truly sorry, because Xiaobian himself had just visited the Expo before I dared to write this travel note. I didn't want to be scolded and had a good reputation.
The World Expo is so big that we have to walk more than 20,000 steps every time we go, so we must choose a pair of comfortable sports shoes, otherwise we will have to ride a battery car for 10 yuan each time.
Let's talk about the ticket settings for the Expo first: the details are as shown below

What needs to be noted here is that children under 1.3 meters tall (inclusive) or under 6 years old are free of charge.
Designated days include the opening day, the May Day holiday, the Dragon Boat Festival holiday, the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday, and the National Day holiday (including the closing day), and the rest of the days are weekdays.
The park is open from 8:00 to 22:00, and the check-in time is 8:00 to 20:00.
What needs special, special reminders here is that the Expo also launched a "overnight ticket": visitors who enter the park after 16:00 on the day of the session can continue to visit for free the next day, but that day is weekday and the next day is a designated day will not apply.
This travel article of ours is written around the "overnight ticket", because Xiaobian believes that choosing to play this way can you get more and better garden experience. You can see more and more beautiful scenery.
Hahahaha Without saying much, start serving the food
There are a total of 6 gates in the Expo, but the ones that tourists often enter and exit are Gate 1/2/5/6. On the first day of this travel trip, they go to Gate 6, and the route order is Gate 6-"① Botanical Museum-" ② Longqing Street (Gardening Town)-"③ Yongning Pavilion-" ④ Guirui Theater Performing Arts Center-"④ Fantasy Light and Shadow Forest
Station ①: Botanical Hall: The Botanical Hall has a construction area of about 10,000 square meters. The architectural design concept is "rising ground level". The building surface is inspired by plant root systems. The huge hanging root systems continue to spread downward, concealing the plants originally hidden underground. The strong vitality is intuitively presented to tourists, bringing a strong visual impact. The Botanical Museum building is divided into three floors. The first floor has a tropical plant greenhouse, covering an area of about 3000 square meters and gathering more than 600 precious plants. The second floor of the building is a green multi-functional report hall, where exhibitions on different themes will be held during the period. When climbing from the first floor to the second and third floors along the vertical traffic path in the east of the exhibition hall, you can enjoy the ultimate beautiful view of the mangrove canopy from a high altitude. At the same time, the roof design of the Botanical Museum is also a highlight. The rooftop viewing platform has a plant-themed coffee bookstore and a souvenir shop. Standing here and overlooking the sky, you can view the Guishui River, Haituo Mountain, China Pavilion, Tiantian Mountain and other Beijing World Park. A panoramic view. The three-member giraffe home on the roof is also a check-in point for the World Expo.

Station ②: Longqing Street (Gardening Town)
When you come to Gardening Town, you will definitely go to Longqing Street, which reproduces the scene of the old Longqing County (now Yanqing County). Strolling along Longqing Street, the embossed on the right wall of the street tells tourists about the history of the land. This street is also a good place for tourists to rest. There are many snacks, as well as painting academies, design and other craft displays. The horticultural town is close to the west side of Longqing Street. More than 700 flowers bloom quietly in the Huahai District, and plants such as pansy and sage compete here. The town has a wide view, and various buildings are dotted among the large sea of flowers, creating an idyllic scenery against the blue sky. The fragrance of flowers comes to your nostrils. Smell the fragrance of flowers along the way, and you are in this endless flower field. It is full of vitality and colorful. You can feel the harmony between man and nature here.

Station ③: Yongning Pavilion
Yongning Pavilion is the highest point in the Expo Park, with a height of 27.6 meters. The Tiantian Mountain below is piled up by earth dug out from Guilu Lake. The east side is in the shape of a terraced field, forming a landscape with blooming mountains and abundant grains; Shannan is a literati garden composed of plum trees, orchids, chrysanthemums, bamboo, lotus, etc. In front of the pavilion, rocks and running water create the artistic conception of "clear spring and stone flowing upward". The "Orchid Pavilion" corresponds to Wang Xizhi's "Preface to the Collection of Orchid Pavilion". The "Chrysanthemum Picking Platform" on the hillside is a tribute to Tao Yuanming, a poet of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. There are also scenery related to "Love Lotus". Create the artistic conception of poetry through step by step.

Station ④: Guirui Theater Performing Arts Center
The Performing Arts Center of the Guirui Theater is responsible for large-scale events such as the opening and closing ceremonies of the World Expo. It is like a colorful butterfly standing on the bank of the Gui Lake. The Guirui Theater holds a light show every Sunday to Thursday at 8 p.m."Heart of the World Garden", the performance lasts about 35 minutes. On Fridays and Saturdays,"Beautiful Home" will be held in place, and the performance will last for about 30 minutes. (What needs to be reminded is that to watch the "Heart of the World" light show, you need to make an online reservation in advance on the "Expo2019" App software. After the reservation is successful, scan the QR code of your mobile phone to enter the show; to watch the "Beautiful Home" in-house performance, you need to purchase a separate ticket. You cannot watch the "Beautiful Home" performance by purchasing only the entrance ticket. You need to purchase tickets + performance tickets to enter the park to watch the performance.)

Station ③: Fantasy Light and Shadow Forest
The fantasy light and shadow forest is located near Gate 5 of the park. Its content is inspired by the traditional Chinese cultural classic "Shan Hai Jing". By applying new technologies such as virtual stereo vision and human-computer interaction, the three-dimensional picture of the strange flowers and grasses in "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" is reproduced. Then we can happily end the first day of visit, return to the hotel to rest, and prepare for the next day's rampage.

Then let's briefly introduce the accommodation situation in Yanqing here: Xiaobian has made a hotel distribution map for your reference. The picture information includes the hotel location, name, room rate, and distance from the entrance of the Expo. Note: The room rate is based on September 2. If you can't see the price picture clearly, you can download it to your mobile phone.

Among them, Shiyuan Hyatt is 5 stars and BOC is 3 stars
If you don't want to stay in a hotel, you can also choose a B & B to experience it!
Yanqing County is not big. You can choose to take an electric taxi to die in the county the next day, and you can sit directly at the entrance of the World Park.

the next day

The next day, we can enter from Gate 1. If you are interested in technology, you can go to the 5G exhibition hall on the west side of Gate 1 to have a look, and then follow the "Landscape and Horticulture Axis" of the Expo Park to head north. We can go to the China Pavilion to take photos. The China Pavilion is directly opposite the main entrance of Gate 1 of the park. As the most important landmark building in the park, its appearance is inspired by the traditional Chinese mascot-Ruyi. The semi-circular design is matched with the "big roof" of traditional buildings, and the shape is like both an ancient Chinese palace and a thatched farmhouse. The China Pavilion has a construction area of 23,000 square meters and is the largest architectural venue in the Expo. In order to reflect the original intention of the China Pavilion to "build a mountain, build a field, and cultivate a beautiful scenery in the embrace of nature", it chose to combine modern steel structures with glass curtain walls to create the outline of a huge golden roof and cornices. The first and second floors are independent exhibition areas of various provinces and cities. You can take a quick look at them. Xiaobian personally prefers the Chinese Ecological and Cultural Exhibition Area on the basement floor of the China Pavilion. Among them,"Thousands of Miles of Mountains and Rivers" and "Fuchun Mountain Residence" The two long scrolls are displayed in the form of horticulture. Through horticultural arrangements such as flower arrangement and green planting, combined with multimedia and other technical means, everyone can see the "plant scroll" version of these two long scrolls. Beautiful! It's unbelievable!

After visiting the China Pavilion, we can take a stroll to the China Horticulture Exhibition Area. Next to the China Horticulture Exhibition Area of the China Pavilion, there are 34 exhibition parks built by various provinces, autonomous regions and cities in my country, plus Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan regions. Tongxing Square is a highlight of China Exhibition Park. All provinces, autonomous regions, cities, Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan regions have provided a stone with local characteristics as an exhibition stone, surrounding the Pedestrian Square. "It means that the Chinese nation works with one heart and one mind, works hard to move forward, and works together to build the Chinese dream." Each stone has a corresponding text description, as well as its own origin and story behind it. Each of the 34 exhibition parks has its own merits. The ones I personally prefer are Beijing Garden, Sichuan Garden, Yunnan Garden, Anhui Garden and Guizhou Garden.

After visiting here, we came to the big flower umbrella of the International Pavilion and took a beautiful photo. The International Pavilion is surrounded by 94 flower umbrellas. The venue adopts an environment-first design strategy and uses the geometric design technique of unit combination to consciously dilute the architectural image and better integrate it into the park environment. The International Pavilion has its own characteristics from a distance and a close view, with a building area of 22,000 square meters and an exhibition area of 11,000 square meters. The National Pavilion is an indoor exhibition hall of national and international organizations. It is basically similar to a domestic trade fair. Interested people can collect a wave of small domestic items.
The first floor of Hall B changes exhibitions every once in a while, so you can see a different flower exhibition every time you come!

Pulling the little baby we received at the international trade fair eastward, we moved to the next trade fair venue-the World Horticultural Exhibition Area. The World Horticultural Exhibition Area is located on the east side of the International Pavilion of the Expo. Here, 41 outdoor exhibition gardens built by more than 80 countries and international organizations have been built, including 34 independent exhibition gardens and 7 joint exhibition gardens. The exhibition gardens have their own unique customs. My favorites are the German Garden, Japan Garden, Qatar Garden, Turkey Garden, and the International Bamboo and Rattan Organization Exhibition Garden.

After visiting the World Gardening Exhibition Area, in the northeast direction of it is the Life Experience Hall. The Life Experience Hall focuses on plant diversity, coffee, tea, traditional handicrafts, etc., and experiences gardening in clothing, food, housing, use, entertainment, health, etc. The application allows tourists to experience gardening and make life better. In the Life Experience Hall, you can also experience herbal culture and learn about the regional characteristics and industrial achievements of Yanqing, the venue where it is held. The Life Experience Hall is divided into four exhibition areas, including the preface hall, the popular science gardening exhibition area, the life gardening exhibition area, and the special gardening exhibition area. The horticultural landscape ramp in the preface hall is not bad. Stroll along the landscape ramp from the first floor to the second floor to appreciate plants with different themes and enhance your deep impression of gardening. The second floor is a popular science horticulture exhibition area, which displays some Chinese herbal medicine and traditional Chinese medicine. Those who are interested can go and have a look.

Then, if you still have time, you can stroll around the Education and Future Exhibition Area. Among them, CCTV Animation Exhibition Park, China Puppet Theater, and Amusement Park are suitable for tourists with children.

Food: There are many restaurants in the Expo, with everything you need, including Chinese and Western simple and fast food. Five are concentrated. The first one is at the southwest corner of the intersection of the China Pavilion and Yongning Pavilion. It is hard to find a KFC. There are also almost affordable family supermarkets and Xijiade shrimp dumplings nearby; the second one is to the north of the German Pavilion, Yoshinoya, Pizza Hut, etc.; the third one is to the east of the Indian Pavilion, where Wangshunge fish head cakes and crossing the bridge rice noodles; The fourth place is in Longqing Street (Gardening Town), where Golden Arch McDonald's, Lao She Teahouse, Shuanju Jingdian Hotpot, Hongmao Dumplings, etc.; the fifth place is McDonald's and Starbucks near Shiyuanmeijia.

About float parade
Time: During the Expo, a parade will be held along the specific route of the park from 3:00 to 3:45 p.m. every day, and an additional performance will be held at important nodes and traditional festivals from 10:00 to 10:45 a.m.
The floats of the Expo can be called "one cart, one story, ten carts, one long scroll." There is a "flower fairy" in front of each float, who takes the shape of famous flowers such as roses and peonies. She dances with her feet on the balance cart and uses flower language to connect the floats.

During the Expo, the charging standard for temporary parking lots will be differentiated. The car in the near parking lot will be 10 yuan/time, and the car in the far parking lot will be 20 yuan/time, and the car in the far parking lot will be 5 yuan/time, and the car in the far parking lot will be 10 yuan/time.
