- JohnBorgloon, Belgium3 contributionsIce and snow sculptures we usually all have seen somewhere, bur very seldom to this extent. So many sculptures and buildings, nicely illuminated by lights.
I know Harbin in Heilongjiang province is the most famous, but this festival is very close to Beijing. The trip takes half a day only. We did it February 2011, by car.
Friends of me visited us during Chinese new year in Beijing. We included the trip in their visit.
We left BJ at 15:00. We arranged for dinner in a nice restaurant in Yenchin, on the way to Longqing. We spend 2,5 hour at the festival. we arrived in BJ at 22:00.Written June 3, 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC. - Kimagic333 contributionsImpressive design ,enormous building surrounded by huge open space.

If you are in Beijing during spring festival you have to check out one or more of the city’s temple fairs. We took subway line 10 to pangjiayuan and walked from there about 15 min. The park was a lot bigger than we expected and it took a good hour to walk around. Lots of decorations, food stalls and shows like lion dance. I would like to come back to the park during summer as it seems like a beautiful park. This temple fair was clearly very popular as there were lots of people.Written April 4, 2018This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC. - Groeg_NomolasCologne, Germany24 contributionsThe Midi Festival is now based in Suzhou (near Shanghai) at the lake Tai Hu, the Midi Festival in Beijing was shut down because there were too much people within the last years. In Suzhou now about 20-30 thousand people come together for a weekend full of international acts of all music genres, electro, metal, rock, pop, hiphop, We have been there with a group of friends and had an unbelievable time. Everyone was incredibly friendly, food is cheap, beer is great and the acts are really as good as the stuff you can see at european or american festivals. If you are near it at this time of the year (days before 01.05) give it a try, you will love it!Written August 21, 2018This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- Fah C81 contributionsWe went there last Sunday. The place was filled to the brim! If you live in Beijing, you can actually use your subway/bus card (交通卡) to enter the festival (10 yuan). The park is pretty big with a big lake in the middle. The area with the Cherry blossoms were full of people taking photos, so I would suggest avoiding the weekend if you want to enjoy the scenery.Written April 8, 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- CB2018Gorle, Italy179 contributionsThis is one of the biggest tennis event in Asia with a combined tennis tournament with some of the best tennis players in the world. The site is the same used during the Olympic Game in 2008 but, with a fantastic new Center court called Diamond.Written October 6, 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- TravelingCat22Tucson, AZ2,396 contributionsIt was much more than an horticultural exposition (5G, culture of many countries from all over the world) and I would encourage everyone to visit the next expo in Japan or Poland. After two days, I was not even finished.Written November 9, 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.

- Hansjoerg RUster, Switzerland126 contributionsBadachu is a park in the North West of Beijing. It has several wonderful Temples with Budda's inside or other god's. People pray here and the atmosphere is relaxed and quite. If you just go straight up from the entrance you will pass automatically all the temples. If you go right you can hike up the hill either on a street or a small beautiful way in the forest. On top you can take the cable car down or a toboggan. Some nice restaurants are also in the park. You might also catch a nice view from the hill to Beijing if air quality is good enoughWritten May 10, 2018This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- Hansjoerg RUster, Switzerland126 contributionsThe Grand View Temple is quite a small park for Beijing. But it is still a beautiful place to visit. They also have concert or theater on stage and it's worth to check when it is. I joined a classic concert partly and it's always such a pleasure if the people start to sing if a famous song is played. Inside you will also find some historic information or sometimes artist exhibition. Small but nice for a few hours relaxingWritten May 10, 2018This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- suvarmaBeijing, China49 contributions..so during the CNY holidays we stayed in Beijing and decided that lets go around town and catch some unseen sights....
Did some research on Trip Advisor and read about this Changdian temple fair - stated to be the oldest temple fair in BJ... seemed like a place not to be missed..
So early one day we set the car GPS head out.. find the TaoRan park without much difficulty...
Great park, lots of activity, tons of people milling around, many dances happening, lovely pavilions, bridges , there is even a artificial snow mountain with activities for kids etc...
BUT NO TEMPLE FAIR..!
TripAdvisor clearly said that till 2011 this fair was at a different location and then in 2011 it had relocated to this park...
seems this exact year I decided to go, the fair decided to shift back to the original location...So the oldest fair, for me at least was so old, it was DEAD..!Written March 6, 2018This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
