Description

Embark on a night cruise along the Liangma River, a historic waterway in Beijing. Board an open-top boat and float along the river, taking in the romantic atmosphere of what is often called the 'Little Seine of Beijing.' Admire the stunning night views and light shows on the artistic bridges, including Guanlan Bridge, Yinma Bridge, and Lanmeng Bridge. The highlight is the Good Luck Bridge, where a starry tunnel under the bridge creates a magical experience. As the boat enters the lock chamber, watch a dynamic light and shadow show projected on the walls and water, themed around the history of the Liangma River, canal culture, and urban transformation. This is the most technologically advanced part of the night tour. This cruise route runs from Solana Pier to Yansha Pier(the vessel will dock at Yansha Pier, which is not your departure pier), with two daily departures at 19:30 and 20:30.Please note that during the summer, the 7:30 PM departure may not offer a fully immersive night view experience due to the late sunset. It is recommended to choose the later departure for a better experience. After the cruise, stroll along the riverbank, where open-air bars create a relaxed atmosphere. Enjoy a drink in the evening breeze. The bustling Blue Harbor shopping district is nearby, offering a variety of dining and shopping options for your evening.
