熊儿河滨河公园

Tucked in the southeast corner of the intersection of Ping'an Avenue and Huanghe Road, this park boasts a trumpet creeper corridor spanning hundreds of square meters. Stepping inside, you'll find a Monet's Garden in the sky.

The Yellow River Embankment 

黄河大堤

In early summer, the Yellow River Embankment transforms into a floral wonderland. Golden coreopsis, pink evening primroses, and white daisies bloom vibrantly against a backdrop of green trees, yellow farmlands, and colorful trails. Starting from Madu and heading east along the levee, you'll wind through enchanting ecological corridors flanked by breathtaking views.

初夏的黄河大堤化身花的海洋，黄色的金鸡菊、粉色的美丽月见草、白色的大滨菊竞相绽放，与绿色的树木、黄色的农田、彩色的步道相互映衬，构成一幅绚丽多彩的画面。从马渡进入黄河大堤，一路向东，曲折的道路两旁尽是迷人的生态廊道。

夏天不露营？简直浪费蓝天白云！这些神仙宝藏地让你秒变户外达人，野餐垫一铺就是“快乐老家”。

South Side of the Jialuhe Park

贾鲁河公园南侧

On the north and south banks of the Jialu River at Hanghai Road hides a wonderful camping paradise. Unlike the ancient-style architectural complex in Jialu Water Town, this spot has won visitors over with its natural, unadorned wilderness. You can leave your car at the parking lot in the northwest corner of the intersection of Jialu River and Hanghai Road, and pick any shady patch of grass to set up your temporary camp.

航海路与贾鲁河交汇处南北两岸，藏着被低估的露营天堂。相较于贾鲁水镇的仿古建筑群，这里以天然去雕饰的野趣取胜。将车停在贾鲁河航海路西北角的停车场后，任选一片树影斑驳的草坪，搭建起临时避暑据点。
