With the warming weather, a popular outdoor playground on the outskirts of Beijing reopened its “doors” on Mar 25, where all-access, all-day tickets are just RMB 58 for weekends and holidays, and RMB 38 on the weekdays!

While 浅山蜜糖奇妙乐园 (Qiǎnshān mìtáng qímiào lèyuán) is technically still in Shunyi District, it is 60km northeast of Beijing Capital International Airport, and about a two-hour drive from the city center according to Apple Maps.

Still, with the long weekend coming up, maybe a day trip to Beijing’s wilder side that gives the whole family a chance to escape city life for a bit is worth it!

PRO TIP: If driving there in your own car, prepare either a change of clothes for kids or a rug for the car seats as reviewers have mentioned how dirty the kids will get playing at the park.

The playground is listed as being suitable for kids ages 2-12, and by the looks of things from photos on Dianping there’s plenty there to do for everyone. With at least five different play structures offering slides, rope courses, swings, and all manner of climbing obstacles in the wide open fields, kids are bound to wear themselves out just running around. There’s even a dedicated kite-flying zone, and you’re also welcome to bring and set up your own tent on the huge grassy plains for RMB 30 instead of RMB 50 for this spring holiday.
