    "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."

    "The scenery of Wutai Mountain is still beautiful. I chose the booking of the Trip.com platform again. I can rest assured and feel at ease when I go out. The hotel accommodation part has also been upgraded a lot more than the farmhouse conditions that went to the last time. The number of people in our tour team is not very large. There are only 14 of our group friends in the more than 30-seat car. This trip to Wutai Mountain, I was fortunate to meet Song guide, the explanation and service are very careful, And the monastery visit schedule is flexible, vivid explanation is looking forward to my next trip."

    "The history of the Wang Family Courtyard was understood before I went. I looked at the buildings inside. I felt very stylish. There were a lot of people in the compound. Because there were many people inside, I visited the compound for more than two hours. I didn’t understand the history of the Wang Family Courtyard. It can only be a walk."

    "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."
