It is well-deserved, it is worthy of the scenery on the RMB, very shocking, close contact with the waves to hit the shore, gas swallow the mountains and rivers, sound and earthquake in the wild weather, if you bring a drone, you can feel the motherland from different angles.

The Pingyao Ancient City Pass is more cost-effective, you can see very business, the bureau, the ancient courtyard. There is also a battery car in the ancient city, which is very convenient, but it is charged separately. And the ancient city is very worth a turn. Taste the local specialties.
Recently, I finally came to the long-awaited ancient city of Pingyao. Stepping into the ancient city, as if crossing back to the Ming and Qing eras. The blue stone road is winding, the ancient buildings on the street are scattered, the blue bricks and gray tiles are all clear, and the moths and arches are full of quaint charm. Aboard the ancient city wall, overlooking the distance, and the whole view of the ancient city. The dense ancient buildings are like a simple picture. Walking into the Rishengchang ticket number, it seems that you can see the glory of Jin merchants "Huitong World". In the evening, the lanterns were on, and the ancient city was more mysterious in the dusk. Pingyao Ancient City, is really a living history museum, let people linger.

Antique, Taiyuan City 5A Scenic Area, a collection of ancient buildings, gardens, running water, Hubo and other elements, it is worth seeing all the ancient trees, the beginning is a thousand years, it is rare to see, that is, the ticket price is not expensive.
At a glance, I saw the 1000-year-old tree for the first time. It was very shocking. I felt that I was very small. Jinci was very beautiful. As the first stop in Shanxi, I opened a very good head.

Trip.com It is convenient and fast to buy tickets. It only takes two minutes to take a sightseeing bus from the parking lot to Yingxian Muta. The Muta scenic spot is not big, you can see it soon, but it is best to listen to the explanation to better understand the meaning of Yingxian Muta.
The first stop to Shanxi chose Yingxian Muta, did his homework in advance, parked the car at the entrance of Jingtu Temple, and first visited Jingtu Temple. It is also worth seeing. The kitten in the temple is a bit thin, but unfortunately there was no one on the body at the time. I was led to its rice basin at that time. I screamed at me, I turned my pockets and told him that I really didn't have food. Out of the temple, 400 meters ahead, came to the wooden tower scenic spot, a hundred smells better than a sight, it is really spectacular, the photo is very popular, there are many young ladies taking pictures from various angles, and there are official photo check-in points, the angle is also very good, the scenic spot is not big, easy to visit, go to Datong City for another hour.

Master Zhang arrived at the agreed hotel 10 minutes in advance, driving smoothly, the car was very clean, and very enthusiastically introduced us to visit the suspension temple, Yuanjue Temple, Yong'an Temple, wooden tower, Jingtu Temple. After visiting the attractions, pick us up to another attraction, very at ease! Friends who come to Datong to travel can rest assured to choose him ～
If you drive by car, first park the car at the visitor center and take a bus shuttle bus to the scenic spot. If you want to climb the temple, you need to pay 100 yuan per person and queue for 2 hours.

Li's tour guide is good, I chose this through train is equivalent to a day trip, take me directly from the city to the attractions, I paid for a meal, the meal is good, the service is good, the drive is long, the car is very comfortable and has a charge, the bus is new, the tour guide has sales but not mandatory, voluntary purchase, Return to the city. The price is right.
There are few people on the staggered peak, the Jingjiao car is almost chartered, the best shooting point is casually shot, although it is very dry at the end of June, it will not be very hot, the Yellow River Hukou Waterfall is indeed very spectacular, and I experienced the roar of the Yellow River.

Mount Wutai, one of the four famous Buddhist mountains, is the dojo of Manjusri Bodhisattva. There are many temples here, and the incense is prosperous. It is a paradise for pilgrims. The cool climate makes it a summer resort, and the five peaks have their own characteristics. Remember to try the vegetarian food, the taste will definitely make you forget the existence of meat. Warm reminder: There are so many steps that you doubt your life. It is recommended to wear a pair of comfortable shoes, otherwise even the Bodhisattva can't save your feet.
Wutai Mountain, the head of China's four famous Buddhist mountains, is like a pearl inlaid in Shanxi. There are many temples, simple and elegant architectural style, and solemn Buddha statues, exude a strong religious atmosphere. The natural scenery is even more amazing, the scenery in the four seasons is different, the spring flowers are full, the summer is cool and pleasant, the autumn is colorful, and the winter is wrapped in silver. Mountaineering and looking out, the sea of clouds is refreshing and refreshing, it is a pure land of the soul and a tourist resort.

It is not a holiday, the traffic is also very large, the parking lot is relatively simple, the turnover speed is OK, the entrance line and the route out of the park after the ticket purchase are not reasonable, I hope to plan it well, the suspension in the palace of Daxiong is very shocking
Shanxi Xiaoxitian was built in Ming Chongxuan for two years. It was originally named Thousand Buddhas. It is located in the Phoenix Mountains in the west of Jixian County. It is famous for the art of "full hall suspension" and has the reputation of "China suspension suspension". The 170 square meter small temple houses more than 2,000 lifelike Buddha statues, like the Buddha country world. Tickets are 35 yuan, open in summer 7:30 - 18:00, self-driving or public transportation can be reached, it is worth a visit.

☘️ The last stop of the Shanxi trip is the gate. There is no such stop in the itinerary, because the road is too far away, and I almost have to give up. With a clever move, I sat in the rest area of the Shanxi Museum and searched for local tour groups and reported the name. ☘️ The old tourist bus drove for more than 3 hours and finally reached the legendary Anal Gate. After getting off the bus, the spirit was lifted. ☘️ Standing on the Guancheng of Anal Gate, Shuo Feng wrapped in gravel and rushed to his face, and the clothes were hunting, and the illusion of being "plasticized" by the force of nature was born. ☘️ This Xiongguan, which is located in the north of Shanxi Dai County, cut the boundary between the Central Plains and the plug in a near harsh geographical attitude on the backbone of the mountains like a knife and ax, the masonry wall of the Ming Dynasty stood silently, and the traces of weathering were embedded in the memory of more than 2,000 years of bonfire. ☘️ The "risk" of the anus gate is carved into the bones. The military defense system of two gates and four gates and eighteen passes will condensate the wisdom of the cold weapon era into a natural barrier. Dongguan and Xiyuguan are inter-corner, and the city, enemy buildings, and ancient Guandao are progressively advancing, forming a three-dimensional defense line of "one husband when Guan". ☘️ Walking on the existing intact ancient plate gateway, the stone slabs of a hundred steps are polished by millennia of ruts, and the cliffs on both sides are like sharpening. You can imagine the hardships of the business travel camel team when they passed through. The rebuilt Guancheng in the Ming Dynasty was more ingenious: the base of the city wall was wide and the archways of the enemy building were dense, and the city building was overlooked by the "First Pass of China". The Great Wall was like a Canglong Panyu ridge. The wind here is the most loyal "night watcher" in the gate. The wind and sand roared past history. Locals joked that "the wind energy of the anus gate is carved bone", this is not a false statement, tourists need to prepare windproof clothing, wind and rain can drop to below zero, wearing less may catch a cold. ☘️ Between the mouths of the anus gate gate city wall, there are still more than ten mottled cowhide war drums hanging today. These drums with a diameter of more than two feet are covered with fine cracks, and the drum surface is sunken and deformed due to years of beatings. ☘️ Anmenguan Village under Guancheng, so far retains the gray tile courtyard of Ming and Qing shops, and the ruts of the caravan of "Tongnan River, Damo North" can be seen on the bluestone slabs. ☘️ The most moving thing about this Xiongguan is not its precipitousness, but its always windy attitude, which makes war and peace, barrenness and prosperity into an epic without modification.
The Anmenguan is very magnificent and it is worth a visit! You need to buy tickets in the scenic service area and arrive at the scenic transportation ticket. It is very friendly to people over 60 years old, and the tickets are free. The traffic car arrived at the main scenic spot above in about 5 minutes. The ancient road was west wind and thin horse. Now I closed the door independently and felt the ambition and pride. When the husband is Guan Wanfu, the steepness of the door tells the wisdom and courage of the ancients. At the top of the Great Wall, I seemed to hear the thunder of war and thunder, and the heroes appeared in front of me. Stepping up to the gate, overlooking the mountains, my heart filled with infinite emotion and awe.

Wang Family Courtyard is very nice and worth a visit, but the package ticket for several attractions is not reasonable (set by the scenic spot). It is inconvenient to go from Wang Family Courtyard to other attractions. There are few direct buses and the signs are unclear. If you want to play all the attractions, it will take at least one day. Most people who bought the ticket only went to Wang Family Courtyard.
The courtyard is the Forbidden City of Shanxi, and the ceiling of the residential building is worth a visit. It's just that the signage in front of the scenic area is not too obvious, for example, the entrance in front of the Confucian Temple is not clearly written, but everything else is pretty good.
