I didn&#39;t book in advance, I went directly to the tourist center to buy tickets and I could pay by scanning the code.
Note: I don&#39;t know why I directly entered my passport number when booking on Ctrip, not the ID card channel. I had to switch to the third channel for manual verification to enter.

It&#39;s a very worthwhile attraction. It&#39;s an eye-opener. The whole tour takes more than 2 hours to complete.

Xuankong Temple

Best Things to Do

able

On holidays, you need to queue for 2 to 3 hours to climb the suspension temple, and only bought a ticket for the foot of the mountain. The suspension temple was built in Beiwei and has a history of more than 1,500 years. The existing building was built during the Ming and Qing Dynasties. It is a unique temple built in the suspension cliff.

Datong Ancient City

Night view

The ancient city wall is very majestic, and it feels great to go up. The light meeting echoes the ancient city, the visual feeling is very beautiful, that is, the legs are neat. The baby walked for a day, and the light meeting at night already needed to be carried away by parents. Really troublesome

Heng Shan Mountain

Book now for today

Mountain climbing

Buy a 20 yuan/person shuttle bus ticket at the visitor center and take the bus to Hengshan Yuemen Bay, which has a cableway. Then transfer the shuttle bus to Zhenwu Temple, which is the starting point for walking mountaineering. At 9:40, I set foot on the mountaineering road. The trail in front of 2/3 was relatively gentle, and the trail in the back was narrower. Because there were many tourists, I could only walk and stop. Tianfengling on the top of the mountain has a stone tablet marked with 2016.1 meters. It is expected to queue for1.5 hours to take pictures. It is not willing to take time to take a photo of a stone tablet. It is only a panoramic view of the scenery on the top of the mountain. The whole mountain top except this stone tablet, there is no other observation deck, the Wuqi crowd is crowded here, only to leave quickly. On the way up, there is basically no stop at the Taoist Temple, and only rush to visit when going down the mountain, and the whole mountaineering is about 3 hours. 2.4 kilometers of Hengshan Trail, although dusty, but no breathing feeling.

Datong Museum is a national-level museum, it is the best municipal museum in my mind, like Luoyang Museum, the collection of cultural relics is rich, historical materials are detailed, exquisite, and the number of visitors is large. The huge murals in the hall, the blue porcelain of Datong, the camel potter in the patio are breathtaking. It is worth a closer look.

It&#39;s so long. . . After shopping during the day, I was a little tired to go shopping at night, but the content was quite rich, the zodiacs were very cute, the magnolia was super handsome, the dinosaur was big at night, and it looked a bit scary (laughs)
