I don’t dare to play, young people are great~"

When you reach the end of the plank road, you can see the "Hezu Cave" where Master He cultivates his body. The road builders dug stone holes into the cliff, wedged stone piles into the holes, and laid wooden boards about 40 centimeters wide between the stone piles. To pass here, tourists must stick to the cliff, pull the iron chain with their hands, step on the wooden boards, and stand sideways. Move forward slowly.Xiyue TempleXiyue Temple, also known as Huayue Temple, is a temple where emperors of all dynasties worshiped and worshiped Shaohao, the Great Emperor of Xiyue. It was first built during the Yuanguang period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty (134 BC - 129 BC). It was built at the entrance of Huangshen Valley (today's Huangfu Valley) at the foot of Huashan Mountain. During the reign of Emperor Huan of the Eastern Han Dynasty (147-167 AD), it was moved to its current location and renamed its present name. It was rebuilt many times in the Tang, Song, Ming and Qing dynasties.Canglong RidgeThe steps on Canglong Ridge are only more than 2 feet wide, with deep ravines on both sides, as steep as a knife or an axe. The height difference between the upper and lower ridge is about 500 meters, and the slope is more than 45 degrees. Here you can look at the green pines and white clouds in the distance and hear the roar of the wind, which is frightening and dizzying.JinsuoguanJinsuoguan is one of the five passes of Huashan Mountain. It is built on a stone arch at the entrance of Sanfeng. It is the choke point from Wuyun Peak to the east, west, south and middle peaks. After locking the pass, there is no way. Therefore, it is also called Tongtian Gate. Taoists believe that Huayue is a fairyland, and only after passing through the Tongtian Gate can one enter the fairyland.

    "The most worth visiting attraction in Luoyang! ! The whole scenic spot is beautiful, surrounded by mountains and rivers, and the grottoes are quite shocking. The brave wisdom and hard work of the ancients are really admirable! It is a pity that many Buddha statues have been destroyed by the Buddha movement, so that their heads have disappeared. I was very sad to see some stolen Buddha statues in the New York metropolis."

    >100km from Fenxi
    Highlights: One of the four major grottoes of China and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Longmen Grottoes are a trove of 1000 years of Buddhist art treasures. Bounded by the Yi River, the caverns are divided into two sections at East Hill and West Hill.

The Buddha and bodhisattva sculptures that inhabit the caverns are carved into an endless variety of poses and expressions of mercy and kindness, while the caves themselves lend a stately and dignified atmosphere. The artistry of these sculptures is truly a priceless inheritance of Buddhist art.

    "On May 18, take the high-speed from Linyi City to the Hukou Waterfall Scenic Area (Figure 2) for about 2 hours. There is a enclosed area at the entrance but I don't know the specific reason (Figure 3). The highest temperature of the day was 37 degrees, very dry, and there were few sun-shading facilities on the way to the observation deck. Fortunately, the distance is close, you can take the Jingjiao bus (Figure 4) in the visitor center, get off and walk for 10 minutes to the main waterfall observation deck. The Yellow River water was not much and clearer that day, and the river bed rocks were exposed in many places (pictured 5-6), but as the Yanhuang children stood by the Hukou waterfall, listening to the roar of the river flowing straight down, they would still feel proud and shocked (pictured 7-8). Shanxi and Shaanxi provinces share the beautiful scenery of Hukou Waterfall of the Yellow River (Figure 9). Which side of the scenery is better? The statement I heard at the scene is that Shanxi is closer to the waterfall and the scene feels more shocking; Shaanxi is relatively far away, and the photo shooting is more spectacular. After watching the waterfall, you can go to the visitor center to stamp the cultural and creative seal (picture 1 video), and there are snacks such as fruit cold drinks yellow rice pot bar at the exit (picture 10). The pictures are all real pictures of the day, I hope it will be helpful to friends who want to see Hukou Waterfall."

    "The only drawback of the historical and cultural place is that the location is relatively biased. The cultural relics on the ground are really not a lie to see Shanxi, but there are many wild tour guides outside the scenic spot, and I personally feel that the protection inside is not in place. There are no warning signs in many places. It feels easy to be spoiled by unqualified tourists"

    "It is still very shocking to do the park bus to the waterfall, from the small waterfall to the largest waterfall mouth. The umbrella is not good to wear a raincoat. Otherwise, it will be soaked, it will be more troublesome without changing the clothes, and there is a lot of sand."

    "Deeply deeply commercialized the popularity of Shaolin Temple and its brand benefits. Secondly, Shaolin Temple is already the Shaolin Temple of the world. Martial arts schools are everywhere in and around it, and those children have no worries in the eyes of the children in the city, only firmness. Busan must have a ropeway, the scenery is spectacular, do not count fortune on the top of the mountain."
