The aftermath of leaving Datong is even greater than a breakup! A 2-day guide to Shanxi Datong is here!

When it comes to Datong, many people think of it as a coal city. It seems that when it comes to travel, people rarely think of Datong. "Underground relics are seen in Shaanxi, and above-ground relics are seen in Shanxi" It is the capital of the Northern Wei Dynasty and one of the nine ancient capitals. There are countless grotto temples. Every step is an ancient building, and every glance is a millennium. Datong is really a seriously underestimated treasure travel destination: About the route: Day1: Huayan Temple - Shanhua Ancient Temple - Datong Ancient City Day2: Soil Forest - Hanging Temple - Ying County Wooden Pagoda - Yungang Grottoes About accommodation: It is recommended to stay near the ancient city of Datong, which is convenient for going anywhere. About transportation: The itinerary for the first day is all within the ancient city of Datong, and you can reach it by walking or taxi. The attractions on the second day are far apart, it is recommended to rent a car or charter a car, about 300 for a day. About the attractions: 1 Huayan Temple A Liao and Jin temple architectural group that was built early in modern times and is well preserved. The exquisite murals are no less than those of Mogao Grottoes, and it has the largest Daxiong Hall in the country. 2 Shanhua Ancient Temple Compared with Huayan Temple, it has more ancient temple charm. Liao and Jin original structures, Raksha colored clay sculptures, and Ming Dynasty temple murals are all worth seeing. 3 Datong Ancient City It can't be finished in a day, every step is an ancient building, the popular ancient architectural groups are all here, and the lights will be turned on at night, the night view is super beautiful, and the photos are very good. 4 Soil Forest The magic of nature, the landscape created by the magic of nature. It has a bit of the charm of Karamay Devil City, it is very spectacular. 5 Hanging Temple A sky-high building with a history of 1500 years, rated as one of the top ten dangerous buildings in the world. It is composed of 40 staggered pavilions, and the bottom is only supported by a dozen wooden pillars. No wonder Li Bai left the word "spectacular" here. 6 Ying County Wooden Pagoda China's oldest and tallest wooden pagoda, built without a single nail, still stands tall after experiencing wars and several earthquakes. 7 Yungang Grottoes Together with Mogao Grottoes and Longmen Grottoes, they are called "Three Major Grottoes". As the "prequel" of "Longmen Grottoes", the Yungang Grottoes, which were excavated in the Northern Wei Dynasty, have more than 51,000 stone carving projects. The description on the Internet is far less shocking than what you see with your own eyes.
