A must-go for summer with kids! 4 cities with a refreshing 22℃, cool and fun for kids without tiring mom, plus great photo ops

Want to take the little ones out in summer but worried about the heat? Don’t worry! Here are 4 cities perfect for summer family trips—cool and fun, making kids not want to go home! 📍Dalian 🌊 As a coastal city, Dalian’s average summer temperature is 22℃. The sea breeze blows away the heat! At Xinghai Square, kids can happily chase and feed seagulls; at Laohutan Ocean Park, various marine creatures are fascinating, and don’t miss the new family-friendly aquatic show; at Jinshitan Park, you can even look for dinosaur footprints to satisfy children’s curiosity. 🍱 The food is also super rich—fresh seafood at Jinshitan Seafood Market is caught and cooked on the spot, fresh and delicious. The ice cream at Fisherman’s Wharf is a kid favorite, and there’s a super sweet Strawberry Festival in May! 🏠 Stay at a homestay near Xinghai Square, around 500 RMB/night, convenient for travel, and you can take a walk by the sea at night. 📍Harbin 🧊 Harbin, with an average summer temperature of 21℃, is truly a cool paradise! Saint Sophia Cathedral is full of exotic charm, with pigeons flying in the square in front of the church—kids can feed pigeons and take photos; the Northeast Tiger Park lets you observe Siberian tigers up close and experience the wonders of nature; Volga Manor feels like being in Russia, with song and dance performances and Russian cuisine, offering a full experience. 🍽 Huamei Western Restaurant on Central Street serves authentic Russian cuisine and has kids’ meals available. The ice cream cart near Sophia Cathedral is also worth a visit! 🛏 Stay near Central Street for easy access to attractions. Family rooms at Volga Manor are about 600 RMB, with a nice environment. 📍Hangzhou 🌳 "Heaven above, Su and Hang below"—though summer in Hangzhou can be warm, the lotus fragrance of West Lake and the coolness of the mountains offer a unique charm. Be sure to take the kids to West Lake for a boat ride to enjoy the endless green lotus leaves; the Liangzhu Museum lets children learn about history and culture with interactive experiences; the Songcheng Water Splashing Festival is a fun, cool celebration for the whole family. 🥢 Grandma’s Home on Hefang Street offers exquisite Hangzhou cuisine, and the tea shops on Southern Song Imperial Street are not to be missed. In May, there’s a Longjing new tea family tea art experience. 🏨 Huajia Mountain Villa by West Lake, around 400 RMB/night, has a great location, beautiful surroundings, and you can bike around the lake. 📍Qingdao 🌊 Qingdao’s average summer temperature is 23℃, with red tiles, green trees, and blue sea and sky. At Zhanqiao Pier, feed the seagulls and interact with them freely; the fine sand at Golden Beach is perfect for digging, building sandcastles, and splashing in the waves—kids can play all day; Qingdao Polar Ocean World offers white whale and dolphin shows, exploring the mysteries of the ocean. 🍤 Seafood is Qingdao’s specialty. At Yingkou Road Market, pick fresh clams to be cooked at the beer house—fresh and tasty. Don’t miss the mackerel dumplings at Shuangheyuan. 🏠 You can choose to stay near Zhanqiao Pier for convenient travel and affordable prices. 🌟Helpful tips: 1. Check attraction opening hours and reservation status in advance to avoid wasted trips. 2. Bring sunscreen and mosquito repellent—kids’ skin is delicate and needs extra care. 3. Prepare some common medicines just in case. 4. Respect local customs during your trip. This summer, quickly take your little ones and start a joyful journey💕
