In early September,the cool autumn finally arrived. My family embarked on a leisurely short tripwith our 1-year-old baby. Considering the physical and mental needs of thechildren, we carefully selected two treasure sites located around Zhengzhou -Dengfeng and Fuxi Mountain in Xinmi, ensuring that the entire journey was bothrelaxed, enjoyable, and full of fun. Here is our four-day itinerary:

Day 1:Zhengzhou-Dengfeng

Departing fromZhengzhou at 4 pm in the afternoon, our family of three drove eagerly toDengfeng Banshantang Wild Luxury Resort Homestay. We arrived at the hotel inabout an hour. Since this is not our first time in Dengfeng, we did not plan tovisit the attractions of Dengfeng this time, but focused on the hotelexperience. The hotel is located in the outskirts of Dengfeng, with a beautifulsurrounding environment, far away from the hustle and bustle of the city. Youcan clearly see the distant mountains, making you instantly feel thetranquility and beauty of nature. The hotel has abundant leisure andentertainment facilities, where you can camp, barbecue, fish, and enjoy the funof outdoor activities. For parent-child families, the hotel also provides acute pet playground and a childrens play area, allowing children to play totheir hearts content, while adults can enjoy tea and chat on the side,enjoying rare parent-child time.

Day 2: Dengfeng - XinmiFuxi Mountain

The next morning, wewoke up in the sound of birds chirping. After breakfast, we drove to theFuxishan Shiwai Xin Yuan Hotel. This is a secluded paradise hidden in the deepmountains, with a warm and elegant courtyard layout. Each room has a separatesmall courtyard, which is perfect for children, the elderly, or friends toenjoy hot pot and barbecue together, adding a lot of fun.

After tasting thefarmhouse dishes provided by the hotel at noon and taking a short break, westrolled around the surrounding villages in the afternoon, experiencing thetranquility and beauty of nature.

Day 3: Fuxi MountainXiaoma Plateau

Today, my twofriends joined our journey with their families. We went to Xiaoma Plateautogether.

Thisis a vast and boundless plateau, with mountains in the distance layered andshrouded in clouds and mist, like a delicate ink painting. I walked slowlyalong a small path into this mysterious plateau. Under our feet was soft grass,and in our ears was the rustling sound of a gentle breeze brushing against thegrass leaves. Then we climbed a small hill, overlooking the entire plateau.Surrounded by mountains and shrouded in clouds and mist, it feels like being ina fairyland.

Inthe evening, we had a self-service barbecue at the hotel. Enjoy delicious food,beautiful scenery, and the company of family and friends under the night andstarry sky.

Day 4::Fuxi Mountain Yunshang Pasture

On the last day ofour journey, we decided to go to Cloud Ranch and embark on an intimateencounter with nature and lovely animals.

As soon as weentered the pasture, we were attracted by those cute little animals. Thespotted deer gently lowers its head and eats the grass on the ground; Seeingthe deer cakes in our hands, they cleverly approached and begged for eating.The little rabbits in the rabbit garden are also very obedient and sensible,without any fear of humans. Our little baby saw these animals for the firsttime and was so excited that her hands kept waving and her eyes sparkled withcuriosity. We brought him closer to those animals and let him touch their furwith his own hands, feeling the warmth and softness.

In addition to smallanimals, Yunshang Ranch also has beautiful natural scenery. We walked along thesmall path of the pasture, enjoying the scenery along the way. The lush trees,colorful flowers, and crystal clear streams all make us feel the infinite charmof nature. The little baby also seemed to be infected by this beauty,occasionally emitting cheerful laughter.

In the afternoon, wefinished our pleasant journey and returned to Zhengzhou.
