Shigang town, just a short drive from downtown Tongzhou district, will serve as a micro-vacation destination for the upcoming May Day holiday.

For adventure lovers, Forest Tribe is a must‑visit. Spread across about 120 mu (around 8 hectares) of pristine woodland, it features off‑road trails for ATVs and UTVs, suitable for both experienced drivers and first‑time riders.

In addition to thrills, Shigang is also home to several cozy hideaways. Banmu Chatang is a neo-Chinese-style tea house where visitors can enjoy tea or barbecue with family and friends.

HahaLady is a rustic bakery in the fields, with hand-made fresh bread on offer daily. Outside the store is an expansive lawn and picnic area, where children can play freely.

Shenggeng Farm offers a one‑stop experience for families, blending farming, sightseeing, and science education.

For a hearty meal, Shichao Chaoxi Canteen serves stir‑fries made from fresh local ingredients.

A slow stroll along West Street reveals small shops selling neo-Chinese-style clothing and traditional wood carvings. Visitors can also taste local snacks like sweet rice cake and fermented bean curd.
