Olympic Water Park (Shunyi)
This park has it all – lush green spaces, an indoor kids playground, and even an ice-skating rink! But we’d like to draw your attention to its 10km long outdoor water arena which was built to host the 2008 rowing and canoeing Olympic events. While we may not be Olympians, these days the park is open for all sorts of water sports such as canoeing, rowing, sailing, and most thrilling of all, cable wakeboarding! There’s also a large outdoor pool with some kid-friendly amenities. A tip from other visitors: The entire park spans over 300,000 square meters and while it does offer a few restaurants, it’s recommended to pack plenty of snacks and maybe even a picnic lunch to take full advantage of the beautifully manicured lawns and poolside. Entry tickets are only RMB 20 but you’ll have to top up for all other activities.
