Panjiakou Reservoir: A Hidden Gem in Tangshan

The scenery here is breathtakingly gorgeous! πŸ’š Free from the hustle and bustle of crowds, it offers only fresh air, verdant hills, and crashing waves. 🌊 I am thoroughly delighted and satisfied to be able to witness such a magnificent view without even leaving Tangshan. πŸ’š

Nestled at the border of Kuancheng Manchu Autonomous County in Chengde and Qianxi County in Tangshan, Panjiakou Reservoir serves as a crucial component of the β€œYinluan into Tianjin” project. The steep peaks flanking the reservoir are adorned with jagged rocks, creating a formidable landscape. πŸͺ¨ The region, encompassing Xifengkou, is renowned for its ancient Great Wall fortifications. Portions of the wall submerged in the water have given rise to a unique spectacle – the underwater Great Wall, a national rarity. πŸ₯‡

The lush greenery and shimmering waters of Panjiakou Reservoir offer a respite from the worries of the world. πŸ’šβ›°οΈ As for activities, camping ⛺️ and accommodation are available, and I particularly looked forward to trying some authentic rural cuisine. Most activities, excluding boat rides, are complimentary, but the thrill of a speedboat ride across the vast reservoir is well worth the investment. 🚀🌊 The reservoir’s immense size ensures a two-hour roundtrip, affording ample time to admire the natural splendor and experience the excitement of the speedboat. πŸš—

Getting to the reservoir from downtown Tangshan at 7:30 involved navigating through heavy traffic and numerous villages, arriving at the entrance at 10:30. While being offered a meal at a local household before the boat ride, I opted to wait, preferring to enjoy the scenery first. Eventually, I joined a group for a speedboat ride, priced at 150πŸ’° per person, without any haggling. The journey was nothing short of breathtaking. 🚀

After disembarking, around 12:30, I chose to dine at the same household, sampling their delicious rural cuisine. The fried river shrimp 🦐 and scrambled country eggs πŸ₯š were particularly noteworthy, though I must admit I ate the shrimp too quickly, resulting in a minor mishap. πŸ˜‘ The wild vegetable salad with tofu and the stewed reservoir fish, though the latter took too long to prepare, were also delightful. πŸ₯—πŸŸ

A few tips to remember: Always prioritize safety and enjoy your vacation to the fullest. πŸ₯° #Speedboat #ScenicLandscapes #CaptivatingViews #MountainAndWaterAdventures #MayDayVacation #OneDayTrip #Travel #NaturalSceneryShare #LeisureAndEntertainmentCreatorProgram #HealingScenery #CoolWangYibo #CoolGuy #MayDayPlans #AvoidingTheCrowd #BeijingSurroundingAreas #TangshanSurroundingAreas #TianjinSurroundingAreas #HiddenGems #WeekendGetaways #AncientArchitectureHuntOnRedBook
