The Dalin Nanhu Scenic Area is located in Dalin County, Weinan City, Shaanxi Province, covering an area of more than 900 acres. It has a cherry blossom garden, a ginkgo forest, an ancient locust garden, and a peony garden, among others. The scenery is beautiful. Dalin's winter jujubes are very famous and you can visit and pick them from June to September. Dalin is not far from Xi'an, just over 100 kilometers away, and there is a direct high-speed train.

Yicang is a kind of social custom that used to store grain in the old days. It was found in Sui and Tang Dynasties. It is a private warehouse built in 1882 (eight years of Guangxu Emperor Guangxu). It is one of the few large granaries in the Qing Dynasty that existed in China. .
