As a child, of course, Shanghai Disneyland is the first choice. There are artificial lakes, castles, all children's fantasies, Mickey Street, and fantasy gardens.
If conditions permit, you can take your children to the surrounding hotels. There are many theme hotels with strange decorations, which you can take your children to experience.
It is recommended to give priority to the surrounding one-day tour. My father often takes me out for a day trip. Advantages are short time and short journey. I can go out any weekend and have a full and happy day. One-day group tour and self-driving are good, and taking care of children will not be particularly tiring.
You can also consider a farther place, such as Guilin, where feng shui is very good and there are many projects. There are all kinds of mountains and rivers, and you can also take a boat. You can take your children to the Lijiang River to take a small bamboo raft, each with a small water gun. Children like to play best. It's cool to spray water on other boats.
The scenery of Huangshan Mountain is particularly good, and it is also a challenge to take children to climb the mountain. But the accommodation on the mountain is not very good. I wonder if it's better now. When I was a child, I went to sleep with my mother, but I couldn't sleep, and I squeezed my aunt next to me. But climbing the mountain to watch the sunrise is really unforgettable energy. Although I caught a cold at the top of the mountain, I am full of admiration for this mountain. It rains suddenly for a few minutes halfway up the mountain, and climbing the mountain will kill you.
Yunnan is also good. There are many shops selling gadgets in the ancient city. You can take children who like toys. There are all kinds of animals. You can see many animals in Xishuangbanna, even instant noodles, raccoons and lions crawling on the windows. Very thrilling. Yunnan's songs and dances, bonfire parties, and all kinds of delicious food.
When I was a child, I also went to the Forbidden City and Beijing Museum. First, I felt the grandeur of the Forbidden City, lamented the good life of ancient emperors, and then went to see Grandpa Mao lying peacefully in a crystal coffin. I have seen the prosperity of Beijing, what double-decker buses, cars composed of two buses, bullet trains and subways, and various overpasses. Let children see the bustling market when they are young, which also helps them to set up lofty aspirations.
In short, when he was young, you can try to show him more historic buildings or bustling cities, and children can look forward to the world they have never seen before. And you can't put down your education for your children on the way to travel. You can remind him that if you are willing to work hard and bring him here in the future, he can travel around the world after working by himself.
