What travelers say:

Self-driving pit avoidance key: Navigate to the north gate, because the core scenic spot is near the north gate of the scenic spot. Don't navigate to the south gate, otherwise you have to take an extra one-way nearly 4 kilometers of mountain climbing trail, and you need to go back and forth, because you need to return to pick up the car. The north gate needs to do small traffic (10 yuan round trip), and then walk hundreds to the north gate of Guancheng. Scenic walking tour route: Guancheng of Qimenguan, in the two mountains and a ditch, built with the mountain, the city wall of Guancheng, into an irregular rectangular shape (or flattened ring), the circumference of more than 5 kilometers. Need to climb for about 2 hours. The north gate of Guancheng is the Austrian Gate, and the south gate is the Tianxian Gate. The two gates are about 100 meters apart. For friends traveling by car, there are three ways to play: the first one, if there are elderly and children, it is recommended to only see two city gates. For tour groups, the tour guide only explained this small paragraph. The second type is better physical strength: from the geopolis gate to the end of the Tianxian gate, climb the east halfway, go to the direction of the Wild Goose Pagoda and the stele forest, go to the geopolis gate downstairs, about an hour, and the west halfway is more challenging and the slope is large. The third type: the whole journey of the Guancheng city wall takes about two hours. From Tianxianmen to the south gate ticket office of the scenic spot, the trail is about 4 kilometers long, and there is nothing to circle the scenic spot. The tour guide map of the scenic spot has a lot of mistakes or misleading, and I hope to improve it.
