Speaking of Gubei Water Town, we really have to start from its geographical location. Gubei Water Town is located in Gubeikou Town, Miyun County, the outer suburbs of Beijing City. It is backed by the Simatai Great Wall, the largest Great Wall in China, and surrounded by the sparkling Yuanyang Lake Reservoir. This pattern of continuous painting of mountains and rivers is probably comparable to the summer resort in Chengde in the north.

Moreover, I don't know whether the natural landscape itself is the ultimate or whether it needs to be admired by the whimsy of artificial intelligence, tourists appreciate the scenery between the lakes and mountains, but never feel that it is intentional.

Wearing red makeup, hanging antique brick walls and overlooking the deep alleys
The footsteps of late autumn always arrive silently, just like the maple leaves on the wall in a deep alley. Before they can put up their green tails, the red feast cannot wait to climb the wall and make tourists drool. In the ancient alley, you will feel the changes of the four seasons are like the interpretation of the ups and downs of life, whether red, green, clear, or tranquil.

It seems that every piece of moss and rubble in the alley will tell people an ancient and long story.

Of course, we can only guess the plot of each story, but the scenery in the alley is "seeing is believing". Dyefang Alley, Yang Wudi Temple Alley, Yinghua Academy, Dabao Bar, and the characteristic exterior wall of the clubhouse, both in terms of details and style, they all reveal an elegant temperament. You must not miss taking pictures.

Walking among the pink fallen leaves is even more beautiful.

The sun shines on the red leaves, which seems to give new vitality to the ripe leaves, and the swaying in the air exudes its charming and mature beauty.

Ancient wall. The alleys are the exclusive place to appreciate and refine. Now it has been a few days since the photos were taken, and the all-red leaves are still quietly waiting in the alleys for people to appreciate them.

Red leaves are paired with cheongsam, and you can enjoy the classic beauty.

Taking portraits is also beautiful ~

Looking at the entire town, I feel even more popular ~

After taking pictures, you can put down all your burdens and ride to experience the scenery in the alley and the paintings in the courtyard. There are about three to five people wandering around in this wonderful autumn meditation. It is very comfortable.

Dyeing workshops are more common in the south. The cloth dyed here in Gubei Water Town is different from that in the south. In addition to blue calico, there are more colorful, red and purple printing and dyeing effects. It looks particularly festive, with dozens of feet of cloth hanging on the cloth drying field is spectacular, as if falling from the sky.

In addition, on the second floor of our Yongshun Dyeing Factory, there are also displays of printing and dyeing technical achievements and characteristics of various periods. These are all made into extremely rich pictures, text and physical displays, and display printing and dyeing works from various periods and regions in front of tourists. In front of us, let us be a feast for the eyes and be called a museum of Chinese printing and dyeing technology.

The name of Yongshun Dyeing Factory is now unknown, but its long history is truly engraved on the historical monument of Gubeishui Town. It was established in 1900 (the 26th year of Guangxu) and is famous for using local flowers and plants from Gubeikou to make dyes. When you enter the courtyard, you can see all kinds of dyeing workshop fabrics, either bright or elegant, showing the superb working skills of your ancestors. On the second floor, you will display the craft equipment of ancient cloth dyeing. Parents who take their babies to play can have a popular education at this time.

2. Night tour of the ancient town
The ancient town is another kind of beauty at night. Not only is it beautiful at night, but the projects you can experience in Gushui North Town are also super exciting.

Enjoy the night view by taking a rowing boat and enjoying yourself ~

But if you want to have a panoramic view of Gubei Water Town, you must also go to the Hilltop Church ~

Make a wish in the church under the stars at night and you may come true ~

The best place to view is the cafe on the top of the mountain!

The LCD in the entire ancient town is only for sale in the eyes. Here, Xiaolan suggests that you must come and see the scenery when it is not completely dark!

In Gushui North Town, the most important thing you can't miss during a night tour is two performances, one is a water dance show and the other is a light show.
The water dance show in front of Wangjing Tower is recommended for everyone to watch it. There is a performance every day. Against the backdrop of night, lighting, water patterns, and music rhythm control are used to combine modern technology and nature to show the ancient town at night. Beautiful scenery.

The other is the light show at Riyue Island Square. It is also a performance that takes place every night. Watching countless Kongming lanterns rise, it is particularly spectacular and grand under the starry sky.

Like bright stars shining on the sky, it is also the brightest scenery in Gubei Water Town at night.

The more exciting performances have just begun. Kongming lanterns, controlled by drones, will also pose in various poses.

If you think you're just going to pose in a static pose, you're wrong.

Because after a while, you will see a person who is constantly climbing the Great Wall. When she climbs to the highest peak, you can't help but sigh, the shock of the performance.

At the same time, Riyue Island Square is the center of folk performances in the entire Gubei Water Town. Almost all large-scale performances in the entire tourist area are held here. There is a large stage in the center of the square
Tourists can freely choose to watch according to the performing arts program list, including band performances, acrobatics, cross talk, opera, and the Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea, each showing their talents.

3. Play the Simatai Great Wall
Night Tour of the Great Wall: Simatai Great Wall is the only Great Wall that can be visited at night. You can not only enjoy the night view of the Great Wall by taking the cable car, but also have a full view of the entire Gubei Water Town. Carrying a lantern at night is even more poetic.

In addition to visiting the Great Wall at night, you can also experience many projects on the Great Wall during the day ~

4. Experience special food in Gubei Water Town.

Near Wangjing Street, there are more special delicacies, mutton soup, pot rice, and snail powder from all over the country. No matter where you come from, you can find your favorites here.

Of course, in addition to snacks, there are also many boutique gourmet restaurants in the ancient town.
Here I especially recommend a roast meat restaurant in Gubei Water Town!
His home is very close to the entrance of the Great Wall. There is a box night tour team ~
His family is also very popular on weekdays. If you want to climb the Great Wall, you can come and taste it. His family's signature Miyun Roast Pork!

When dipped in sauce, the meat is fat but not greasy, and it is super fragrant.

This salty old tofu, tofu and chive flowers are super delicious.

5. Autumn Hot Spring

Hot springs in autumn
The hot springs in Gubei Water Town are also very worth experiencing. I personally suggest going to soak in them at night. After playing all day during the day, at night, soak in the dry skin in autumn, which can not only nourish your skin but also relieve fatigue. Lying in the hot spring pool, you can look up and watch the Simatai Great Wall at night, and you can also look up at the stars, which is particularly quiet and comfortable.

6. Make a rowing boat to enjoy the customs of the ancient town

Boating on Yuanyang Lake is indeed a pleasant thing. There is no hindrance from the hustle and bustle of the city, no love and hate in the workplace and officialdom, only the relaxed mood of poetry and distance. I think this is the case with the picture of people with small bridges and flowing water.
